Looking for a JustWatch alternative? First decide which job you need done. To find where something is streaming, try Reelgood or Plex Discover. To track what you've watched across movies and TV, Trakt is the better fit, and it uses JustWatch for its streaming links. To get told what to watch next from your own history, that's goodrecmovies. TV Time is gone: it shut down in July 2026.

Two different needs
JustWatch answers "where can I stream this?" It also has a watchlist, a Seen list and TV show tracking that marks episodes as seen and tells you when new ones arrive (JustWatch support). Most people who look for an alternative either want a different streaming guide, or want a better answer to "what should I watch tonight?" The picks below cover both.

The picks
Reelgood
A streaming guide that searches across more than 300 services, covering the US and the UK. You can make a free account to keep a watchlist (reelgood.com). If you're outside those two countries, check that it covers yours first.
Plex Discover
Plex's free Discover features work without a media server. Universal Search finds a title across your streaming services, and the Universal Watchlist keeps everything you want to watch in one list. You pick your services, rate and discuss titles with friends, and your profile shows stats for what you've watched and rated (plex.tv/discover).
Trakt
Trakt is a tracker first: it logs movies and every TV episode, with check-ins, history, ratings and lists. For where-to-watch it partners with JustWatch to provide direct streaming links (App Store listing). So it's an alternative to JustWatch's tracking side, not to its data. VIP is $5.99 a month or $59.99 a year on the US App Store. Our Trakt alternatives post covers its free limits.
goodrecmovies (a companion, not a replacement)
goodrecmovies isn't a streaming guide. You rate and mark what you've seen, and it suggests what to watch next from your history. With Pro, each title page shows where it's streaming, renting or free in your country, using JustWatch data. So it works alongside JustWatch, not instead of it. Suggestions, ratings and the watchlist are free with a Google sign-in; see /pricing for what Pro adds. If you already log films on Letterboxd or Trakt, bring that history over at /import.
Staying on JustWatch?
JustWatch's free plan gives you 2 custom lists. JustWatch Pro or Plus raises that to 100 (JustWatch support). On the US App Store, JustWatch Pro is listed at $3.99 and JustWatch Lifetime at $49.99 (apps.apple.com). The listing doesn't say how often Pro bills.
