Does anyone know if there is an app on the iphone, ipad, etc. to track what musicals you've seen, how many times, etc?
Facebook had Stage Door, but I don't see it there anymore.
I'd love some way to track my shows formally.
Thanks.
I don't believe there is. The only theatre apps that I know of for Broadway are either apps for broadway are either ones for theatre news sites (like the Broadwayworld app I'm using to write this post.) or ones like the TKTS app that allow you to track what's being sold at the booths. I don't believe that there is the kind of app your talking about. I wish there was. Like you I too enjoyed the show tracker feature on Facebook. But, I do believe that was a facebook only app and its too bad that it's not available as an iPhone app.

Speaking of the BWW app, does anyone else find it to be really buggy? For example, more often than not, the "back" control panel doesn't show up for me, and I wish there was an easier way to reply on the boards.
^ YES!!! My biggest problem is that the home screen icon is super blurry... I wish they would fix that...

A pen and a pad of paper should suffice. Or if you must, a word doc.
I downloaded the database app bento. I use it for several databases, but mostly tracking my shows and my beer collection.

@D2-- I, too, thought of that; however, I need a master list of all the shows produced in the last 30 years or so. I didn't always save my playbills, so I am not sure of everything I have seen. That was the beauty of the old Facebook app...it listed all the shows from the beginning of Broadway history as well as national tours. I could look at the list and be reminded. Now the app is gone and so is my tracking system.
@Goggles--thank you. :)
I second Goggles' Bento recommendation. The program has a regular desktop version as well as an iOS app. All fields and the desktop layout can be entirely customized. Some screenshots below for those who are interested.
