A new app from Easy ModeFor iPhone

Where was I?

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.

Back in the story in two minutes

Every recap is written for your exact spot. Here’s one for chapter 30 of The Count of Monte Cristo.

What it does

Made for coming back

Life gets busy. Stories wait. Where Was I? makes picking them up again feel easy.

Whatever you’re into

Books, TV, movies, anime, comics and video games, down to the chapter, episode, minute or quest.

Spoiler-safe by design

Recaps stop at your spot. Even the names of episodes ahead of you stay hidden while you pick where you stopped.

Ask about the story so far

Forgot who someone is or why it matters? Ask, and get an answer drawn only from what you’ve already seen.

Real titles, real episodes

Search to add a title with its cover, then pick your season and episode from the real list.

Read it, hear it, test it

Listen to your recap read aloud, then take a quick memory check before you dive back in.

Finish what you started

Gentle reminders when a story sits too long, and a trophy case for everything you finish.

How it works

Three taps to “Oh, right!”

  1. Add what you put down

    Search for the book, show, movie, anime, comic or game.

  2. Say where you stopped

    A chapter, an episode, a timestamp or a quest, plus anything you remember.

  3. Get caught up

    A recap written for that exact spot: the story so far, who’s who, and what’s still unresolved.

Recaps are written by AI and can get details wrong. When a recap isn’t sure about something, it says so, and for lesser-known titles it reads up on the web first.

When can I get it?

Where Was I? is in testing now and coming to the App Store for iPhone soon.

Will it spoil what I haven’t seen yet?

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.

What can I recap?

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.

Where is my shelf stored?

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.

How accurate are the recaps?

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.
