How to move your TV Time history to Hobi
TV Time shuts down after July 15, 2026, and all account data gets deleted. The good news: Hobi is the official migration partner for TV Time users, so you can save everything now and moving in is straightforward.
Step by step
- Export your TV Time data. Sign in to the TV Time data portal, request your export, and save the file. Your watch history and ratings both live inside it. Full walkthrough: how to export your TV Time data.
- Get Hobi free on iOS or Android.
- Import your TV Time export. In Hobi, open Settings and tap Import from TV Time, then upload the official export file (the GDPR ZIP) as is. Hobi automatically matches your shows and movies and transfers your viewing history, watchlist and ratings in one go. Start at hobiapp.com/tv-time. Already on Trakt? Connect Trakt in Hobi and pull it in that way.
- Keep your export file. It is your backup, and it keeps working forever, even after the shutdown. Your ratings are inside it, so your scores are never lost. See does Hobi keep your ratings.
