Movies · Series · Anime
Stop on one screen. Continue on the next.
Continuum organizes the movies, series and anime already on your phone, TV and PC, and remembers exactly where you stopped on every one of them. Your files stay where they are. Only your place in them travels.
For Windows, Android phones and tablets, and Android TV.

Everything you started, in one row
Continuum recognises each film and episode, so Continue Watching looks the same on every device, and each poster says where the file lives.

Kilobytes travel. Gigabytes stay home.
There is no Continuum server. Each device keeps its own files, and only the small facts about your watching move between them.
What travels between your devices
- Where you stopped in every film and episode
- What you’ve finished, and what you’ve favourited
- Playlists and each viewer’s profile
- Intro, recap and credits timings
What stays on the device that holds it
- The video files themselves
- File names and folder locations
- Your library scan and settings
- Any API keys you enter
-
On your Wi-Fi
Your devices talk to each other directly, signed with a family key only they hold. Playing a film another device has streams it straight from that device.
-
As a backup
If you sign in with Google, a copy of your progress sits in a hidden folder in your own Drive that only Continuum can open.
-
Nowhere else
No Continuum account, no analytics, no ads. We never receive what you watch.
From a folder of files to a library that follows you
-
Point it at your folders
Choose where your movies, series and anime already are. Nothing is moved, copied or renamed.
-
It works out what you have
Release names are matched to TMDB and AniList, so two copies of one episode, in two folders on two devices, count as the same episode.
-
Pick up anywhere
Pause on your phone and the TV offers the same second. A device that was asleep catches up the next time it wakes.
Built for how people actually watch
-
Anime, matched properly
Fansub names, absolute episode numbers and seasons split into parts all land on the right episode.
-
Skip intros, recaps and credits
Timings come from chapters, from AniSkip and TheIntroDB, or from your PC comparing the audio of episodes in a season.
-
Subtitles in two languages
Embedded tracks, files next to the video, or a search on OpenSubtitles. Learning mode shows two languages at once, Arabic included.
-
Play what another device has
A film stored on your PC plays on your phone or TV over your home network, without copying it first.
-
Your phone is the remote
Seek, pause, switch subtitles and change the audio on the TV or PC from the phone in your hand.
-
One family, separate viewers
Each person gets a profile with their own progress, favourites and playlists, on every device.
One app, three kinds of screen
-
Android phones and tablets
Scans your storage, plays what’s on it, and doubles as a remote.

Android TV
Pairs by scanning a QR code with your phone, then plays what your other devices hold.

Windows
Plays and shares your library, and finds intro and credits timings for the whole family.

Free, and staying that way
Continuum costs nothing, shows no ads, has no subscription and collects nothing about you. If it earned a place on your devices, you can put something towards the time it takes to build.
One-off or monthly, whatever suits. Nothing in the app is locked behind it, and nothing changes if you don’t.
Your watching stays in your family
No ads, no trackers, no Continuum account. The privacy policy lists every service the app talks to and exactly what each one receives.
