Letterboxd vs Seenr

By the Seenr team · July 17, 2026

Letterboxd built its whole identity around film diaries and reviews. Seenr covers the same ground for movies, then adds what Letterboxd does not: shows, episodes, and the friends who watch them with you.

Letterboxd built one of the most engaged film communities online around a simple diary: log what you watched, rate it, write about it, follow people with similar taste. It's built specifically for film, with no support at all for tracking a TV show or an individual episode.

Seenr keeps that same diary, rating and review loop for movies, then extends it to shows. Checking an episode counts toward the season, the season toward the series, and friends can watch it happen if you let them. Nothing changes in how a movie gets logged; a show just gets the same treatment an episode at a time.

If movies are the whole picture, Letterboxd already does that well. The moment shows are part of the mix too, Seenr covers both without needing a second app.
