Letterboxd for Games: Backloggd and Its Best Alternatives
Backloggd is the usual Letterboxd for games, but it still has no app. We compare it with GameTrack, Omniphile, Logg and Stash on diaries, reviews and phones.
- Games
- Movies
The short answer
- Backloggd is the closest thing to Letterboxd for games: a free site where each playthrough gets its own log, rating, review and journal, with lists and a feed of the people you follow. As of October 2026 it has no app, no Steam import and no data export.
- GameTrack is the best Letterboxd-style app for games on a phone. It calls itself “like Letterboxd, but for games,” runs on iPhone, iPad, Mac and Android, and fills a diary from your linked game accounts on Apple devices.
- Omniphile is our pick if you want games and films in one diary on iPhone, iPad or Mac: it imports your Letterboxd history, logs each game by playthrough and rates in half or quarter stars.
- Logg, released in July 2026 for iPhone and Android, is the newest Letterboxd-style app: a game diary with star ratings, reviews, ranked lists and friends.
- Backloggd has no export, so leaving it means rebuilding your library, which goes fastest in an app that syncs your Steam, PlayStation and Xbox libraries.
Letterboxd itself covers only films, but Backloggd is the closest thing to a Letterboxd for games: a free diary of playthroughs with half-star ratings, reviews, lists and a friends feed. It still has no app, though. On a phone, GameTrack is the best Letterboxd-style alternative, and Omniphile keeps games and films in one diary on iPhone, iPad and Mac.
Backloggd is the name that comes up for “Letterboxd for video games,” but its most-wanted features are still requests. As of October 31, 2026, its public roadmap lists an Android app with about 20,000 votes and an iOS app with about 15,000, alongside a Steam import (about 20,000) and data export (about 7,400), none of them shipped.1 Its FAQ says there is no mobile app “at this time.”2 Meanwhile, apps built for phones have moved in: Logg was released in July 2026, and GameTrack 7.0 reached the App Store on October 30, 2026, describing itself as “like Letterboxd, but for games.”3
We make Omniphile, one of the apps below, so weigh our view of it accordingly. Every detail about the other apps comes from their App Store and Google Play listings, official sites and help pages, checked on October 31, 2026. Letterboxd’s own listing describes logging films “with date, rating, review and tags,” with no mention of games.4
What makes an app a Letterboxd for games?
Letterboxd is more than a list of films you have seen. What people miss when they look for the same thing for games:
- A diary. Each play logged with its dates, so finishing a game a second time is a new entry, not an edit.
- Ratings fine enough to mean something. Half stars at least, and ideally a rating per playthrough.
- Reviews and lists, ranked or not, that other people can read.
- Friends and a feed of what the people you follow are playing.
- A good phone app, because you log a game when you finish it, usually away from a desk.
- A way in and out. Store syncing or imports to get started, and an export so your history isn’t stuck in one place.

The best Letterboxd alternatives for games
The default, on the web
Backloggd
- Platforms
- Web, built to work in a phone browser
- Price
- Free; Backer $3 a month on Patreon
- Tracks
- Games
Backloggd works the way Letterboxd does. Each game can be marked Played, Playing, Backlog or Wishlist, and a played game can be Completed, Abandoned, Retired or Shelved. “Each log represents a single playthrough of a game,” and each log can have its own rating, review and journal, a calendar where you mark the days you played.2 Lists can track your progress or be ranked, and you can follow others “for an all-in-one activity feed.”5 Ratings go down to half stars, and every current feature is free; a $3-a-month Backer tier on Patreon removes ads and adds yearly and all-time stats.6
It is still a website. Version 1.18, in September 2026, let you group the copies in your library by ownership, platform or storefront,7 but with no Steam import, you add them yourself. If the community matters most to you, Backloggd remains the place it gathers; the apps below are for logging on a phone.
Best for: Players who want the biggest Letterboxd-style community for games and are happy in a browser.
Strengths
- Free, with every current feature unlocked
- One log per playthrough, each with a rating, review and journal
- Lists, reviews and a feed of the people you follow
Drawbacks
- No iPhone or Android app
- No Steam import and no way to export your data
Best Letterboxd-style app on a phone
GameTrack
- Platforms
- iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, Android
- Price
- Free; GameTrack+ $3.99 a month, $29.99 a year or $99.99 once
- Tracks
- Games
GameTrack’s listing calls it “like Letterboxd, but for games,” and since version 7.0 it has the pieces. You rate games in half stars and write reviews with spoiler warnings; follow friends and see what they are playing in an activity feed; build lists and game grids, save lists other players share, and show off your games, reviews and achievements on your profile.3
Its diary goes further than Letterboxd’s, because GameTrack can fill it for you: link PlayStation, Xbox, Steam, Nintendo, Epic Games, GOG or RetroAchievements, all free, and play sessions are detected from your real playtime and logged.3 On Android, though, the diary with automatic sessions, Nintendo and group challenges aren’t available yet; its FAQ says they are on iPhone, iPad and Mac “for now.”8 A CSV export and import, added in version 6.0, gives you a way out.9 GameTrack+ costs $3.99 a month, $29.99 a year or $99.99 once, and adds unlimited lists and tags, game grids and a yearly recap.10
Best for: Players who want Backloggd’s logging in a native app, with their game accounts linked.
Strengths
- Half-star ratings and reviews with spoiler warnings
- A diary filled from your linked accounts
- Friends, a feed, shared lists and group challenges
- Free links to seven game services
Drawbacks
- The diary, Nintendo and group challenges are on Apple devices only for now
- Three lists and three tags without GameTrack+
Best for games and films in one diary
Omniphile
- Platforms
- iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch
- Price
- Free; optional Premium subscription
- Tracks
- Games
- Movies
- TV shows
- Books
- Audiobooks
Omniphile is our app, and it answers a slightly different question: what if you want a Letterboxd for games and also keep logging films? It imports your Letterboxd history, along with Trakt, IMDb and others, and keeps films, shows, books, audiobooks and games in one library, each kind tracked its own way. You can switch off any kind you don’t use.
Games are tracked by playthrough, with dates, a session timer and a status: Backlog, Up Next, Playing, Paused, Completed, Gave Up or Wishlist. A game, like a film, takes a rating on a 5-star or 10-star scale with half- or quarter-star precision, or a custom emoji, and a review. The community is optional: a public profile at omniphile.app/@handle, reviews and comments, members you can follow, and collections other people can browse and upvote. You decide how much of your profile is public.
The Premium subscription adds replays, so a second run of a game gets its own playthrough, plus syncing for your Steam, PlayStation, Xbox, Epic and GOG libraries and a session journal with notes and photos.11 The free app imports HowLongToBeat, GameTrack and Minimap exports. It can’t import Backloggd, because Backloggd has no export to import.
Best for: Letterboxd users on iPhone, iPad or Mac who want their games and their films in one diary.
Strengths
- Imports your Letterboxd history
- Games logged by playthrough, with dates and a session timer
- 5- or 10-star ratings in half or quarter steps, plus reviews
- An opt-in community with public profiles and follows
Drawbacks
- No Android or web version
- Store syncing and replays need Premium
- No Backloggd import, because Backloggd has no export
Newest Letterboxd-style app
Logg
- Platforms
- iPhone, iPad, Android
- Price
- Free; Logg+ $3.99 a month or $29.99 a year
- Tracks
- Games
Logg is the newest app here, released on the App Store on July 13, 2026, and also on Google Play. It describes itself as “a diary for your gaming life”: mark games Playing, Completed or Play Later, or just log one with a rating, and write a review while it’s fresh. Lists can be ranked or unranked, and you can follow friends and browse the reviews and lists of the whole community.12
It is the closest to the Letterboxd idea in this group, and the least proven. As of October 31, 2026, it is rated 4.7 from 83 ratings on the US App Store and 5.0 from 42 on Google Play, with more than 10,000 downloads there.13 Its listing doesn’t mention imports, so you would add your games one by one. Logg+ costs $3.99 a month or $29.99 a year.12
Best for: Players who want a simple game diary with reviews and lists, on iPhone or Android.
Strengths
- A game diary with star ratings and reviews
- Ranked and unranked lists
- Follow friends and browse the community’s reviews and lists
Drawbacks
- New: released in July 2026
- Its listing mentions no imports or store syncing
Best social backlog on Android
Stash
- Platforms
- iPhone, Android
- Price
- Free; optional Pro subscription
- Tracks
- Games
Stash calls itself a game tracker and “gamer social network”: games go into Want, Playing, Beaten or Archived lists, and you can follow other players, leave reviews and ratings, share collections and compare your progress on leaderboards. It imports your Steam library.14 It is the most downloaded app of its kind we checked on Google Play, with more than a million installs and a 4.6 rating from about 16,900 reviews.15 It is closer to a social backlog than to a diary: its listing doesn’t mention logging the dates you played.
Best for: Android players who want reviews, followers and a Steam import in a popular app.
Strengths
- More than a million downloads on Google Play, rated 4.6
- Reviews, ratings, followers and leaderboards
- Steam library import
Drawbacks
- Organized as lists more than a dated diary
- The Android app contains ads
Best free web option with store syncing
Infinite Backlog
- Platforms
- Web, which you can add to a phone’s home screen
- Price
- Free; optional Patreon tiers
- Tracks
- Games
Infinite Backlog is a free website with reviews, lists, challenges and leaderboards, built on your store libraries: it imports games from PlayStation, Xbox, Steam, GOG and RetroAchievements once a day.16 Its FAQ is clear that there are no privacy settings, so everything is public, and that there is no store app; you add the site to your home screen instead.17
Best for: Players who want a social game profile built from their store libraries, for free.
Strengths
- Free imports from Steam, PlayStation, Xbox, GOG and RetroAchievements
- Reviews, lists, challenges and leaderboards
Drawbacks
- No privacy settings: everything on your profile is public
- No app in the App Store or Google Play
Two other web trackers are worth knowing, though neither has an app on the stores. Backloggery says there is “no Android or iOS app currently and no plans to make one,” has no imports, and has you enter each game yourself.18 Grouvee has had an iOS app in beta since July 2026, but not on the App Store.19
How to move your game library
Backloggd is the hard case, because there is nothing to export. Your options:
Rebuild from your store libraries
Sync your accounts in an app that supports them: GameTrack links seven services for free, Omniphile syncs Steam, PlayStation, Xbox, Epic and GOG with Premium, and Infinite Backlog imports four stores on the web. That brings back most of a library; ratings and reviews have to be added again.Use a file if you have one
If you have tracked on HowLongToBeat, GameTrack or Minimap, export from there: Omniphile imports all three, and GameTrack imports CSV files.Copy your reviews before you go
With no export, the only way to keep your Backloggd reviews is to copy the ones you care about into notes, so you can paste them into the new app as you rate each game again.Bring your films along
If you also use Letterboxd for films, Omniphile imports that history too. Our page on Letterboxd for TV shows covers keeping films and series together, and our comparison of Letterboxd alternatives covers the other apps for films.
If your backlog matters more to you than reviews, our ranking of the best game backlog apps compares these apps on store syncing, time-to-beat estimates and play logging, and adds HowLongToBeat and Playnite.

Common questions
- Is there a Letterboxd for games?
- Yes. Backloggd is the best known: a free website with a log for every playthrough, half-star ratings, reviews, lists and a friends feed. GameTrack, Omniphile, Logg and Stash offer similar logging in iPhone apps, and all of them except Omniphile also run on Android.
- Does Backloggd have a mobile app?
- No. As of October 31, 2026, Backloggd’s FAQ says there is no mobile app, though its website is built for phone screens. Its public roadmap lists an Android app and an iOS app as open requests, with about 20,000 and 15,000 votes.
- What is the Letterboxd for games on Android?
- GameTrack, Logg and Stash all have Android apps with ratings, reviews, lists and friends. GameTrack also links your game accounts, though its diary and Nintendo support are on Apple devices only for now. On any phone, Backloggd works in the browser.
- Can I export my Backloggd data?
- Not yet. As of October 31, 2026, data export is an open request on Backloggd’s public roadmap, with about 7,400 votes, so moving to another app means adding your games again, ideally by syncing your store libraries.
- Does Letterboxd track video games?
- No. Letterboxd is a social network for film, and its App Store listing describes logging films, not games. To keep films and games in one diary on iPhone, iPad or Mac, Omniphile imports your Letterboxd history and tracks games beside it.
