Best Anime Tracking App in 2026

Keeping track of your anime watchlist can be overwhelming. With seasonal shows, long-running series, and a huge backlog, you need an app that makes tracking effortless. Here's why wako with SIMKL is the best solution.

The anime tracking problem

Most movie tracking apps treat anime as an afterthought. They have incomplete databases, missing episodes, and no understanding of anime seasons and specials. That's where SIMKL changes the game.

Comprehensive database

SIMKL's anime database is built for anime fans. Full season breakdowns, OVAs, specials, and movies all properly organized.

MyAnimeList integration

Already use MAL? SIMKL can import your history, so you don't start from scratch.

Episode tracking

Mark episodes as watched, track your progress through long-running series, and pick up where you left off.

New episode notifications

Get notified when new episodes of seasonal anime air. Stay up to date without checking manually.

Movies & TV shows too
