How to Add TV Shows to iTV Shows on iOS

The iTV Shows app is a TV series tracker exclusively available on iPad and iPhone. It helps you follow and keep track of your favorite TV shows from your mobile device. In order to be updated with your favorite TV shows, you have to add them so that you can easily monitor and browse through them. You can add your TV shows directly on the app or by syncing it with your trakt.tv account.

Method 1

Adding TV Shows Directly on the App

1. Launch iTV Shows. Look for the app icon on your iPad or iPhone, and tap on it.

2.  Tap “My Shows” from the bottom menu to see your shows. These are the shows you’ve tagged as your favorites and added to the app. The shows will be grouped in order of their current airing statuses and each of them will be displayed with their unique posters and titles.

3. Search for a show. At the top right corner of the screen is a search field. Type the name of the show you’d like to add. A list of matches will appear right under it.
