Tracking

Sign in under Accounts (More > Accounts on phone and TV) to AniList, MyAnimeList, or both. Sign-in opens the tracker's own page in the browser; on a TV you scan a QR code with your phone instead, with both on the same home network. Each account logs out separately.

Without an account, watched episodes and resume positions stay on the device.

When an episode counts as watched

Leaving early saves your place. Otakase uses playback and the episode's ending markers to tell when you finish. Opening and ending auto-skips still work, and episodes without markers count when playback finishes. A scene after the credits still plays if the ending marker stops before it.

If you watch episodes out of order, Otakase keeps the individual episodes and resume points on your device. AniList and MyAnimeList advance once you fill the gap. Otakase retries a completion update if a tracker is offline.

Both at once

With both signed in, Home combines your lists and every change goes to both trackers. When a show is on both, the most recently updated entry wins. Entries you made private on AniList are never copied to MyAnimeList.

Lists sync in the background at most every 30 minutes, or straight away when you pull to refresh.

Scoring a finished show

After the last episode of a show that has finished airing, the app asks for a score from 1 to 10 when the player closes, and marks the show completed. Turn it off under Settings → Playback → Rate when I finish a show.

Resuming on another device

Your place in an episode is kept in the show's AniList note or MyAnimeList comment as a short tag like [otakase:5@754] (episode 5, 754 seconds in), next to anything else you wrote there. Otakase on any of your devices picks it up and resumes from there.

Profiles

Up to six profiles (More > Profiles), each with its own accounts, history, lists and playback settings. A TV asks who is watching when there is more than one. A profile can be locked with a direction code of 4 to 8 arrows.

18+ titles

Whether 18+ titles show up follows the adult content setting of your AniList account.
