Whatever you’re into
Books, TV, movies, anime, comics and video games, down to the chapter, episode, minute or quest.
Spoiler-free recaps that pick up exactly where you left off.
Put a book down for a month? Halfway through a season? Tell it where you stopped and it catches you up to that page, episode or quest, and not a moment further.
Screens
Every recap is written for your exact spot. Here’s one for chapter 30 of The Count of Monte Cristo.
Your spot, how far through you are, and one tap to your recap.

Everything up to chapter 30, and nothing after it.

Every character and how they connect, as of where you are.

The big beats in order, so the story clicks back into place.

Who’s that again? It answers from what you’ve seen so far.

What it does
Life gets busy. Stories wait. Where Was I? makes picking them up again feel easy.
Books, TV, movies, anime, comics and video games, down to the chapter, episode, minute or quest.
Recaps stop at your spot. Even the names of episodes ahead of you stay hidden while you pick where you stopped.
Forgot who someone is or why it matters? Ask, and get an answer drawn only from what you’ve already seen.
Search to add a title with its cover, then pick your season and episode from the real list.
Listen to your recap read aloud, then take a quick memory check before you dive back in.
Gentle reminders when a story sits too long, and a trophy case for everything you finish.
How it works
Search for the book, show, movie, anime, comic or game.
A chapter, an episode, a timestamp or a quest, plus anything you remember.
A recap written for that exact spot: the story so far, who’s who, and what’s still unresolved.

Where Was I? is in testing now and coming to the App Store for iPhone soon.
No. Every recap and every answer stops at the spot you give it. If you ask about something later in the story, it tells you that’s for the story to tell.
Books, TV series, movies, anime, comics and manga, and video games. For games it can also remind you of the controls and your current objective.
On your iPhone. There’s no account to make. When you build a recap or ask a question, only what’s needed for it is sent to our recap service. The privacy policy has the details.
Very good for well-known titles. For lesser-known ones the app reads up on the web first, shows how sure it is, and blurs anything it couldn’t confirm. You can always ask it to research harder.
