TV Time data
Can you still export TV Time data after shutdown?
TV Time ended after July 15, 2026. When this guide was reviewed on July 27, 2026, its public export endpoint was unavailable. That does not prove what happened to any specific account, but it means you should not rely on obtaining a new archive. If you already have the original ZIP, preserve it unchanged and import it into Kino.

1. Use the dated endpoint status
The former public self-service export host did not resolve during our July 27 check. Treat that as a dated availability result, not as evidence about any individual account or a promise that another recovery path exists.
2. Keep any original ZIP you already have
Store the untouched archive in a safe place and keep a separate backup. Kino accepts supported original archives; extracting, editing, renaming, or rebuilding the ZIP can make it incompatible.
3. Sign in to Kino
Create or access your Kino account. Kino can process a supported archive that you provide, but it cannot retrieve data from TV Time or create a replacement export.
4. Import and review the result
Open Kino’s import flow, upload the original supported ZIP, and review matched, unmatched, and archived records before changing or deleting your backup. Sign in to Kino →
FAQ
- Can I still request a new TV Time export?
- You should not rely on it. The former public export host was unavailable during the July 27, 2026 check. That observation is dated and does not reveal the state of any specific account.
- I already have the ZIP. Should I extract it?
- No. Keep the original ZIP unchanged and upload it directly to Kino. Retain a separate backup until you have reviewed the imported library and report.
- Can Kino recover data from my TV Time account?
- No. Kino can only process a supported archive that you provide. It cannot connect to TV Time, recover account data, or generate a replacement export.
- What does Kino import?
- Kino reads supported archive data for shows, episode watches, movies, ratings, and other verified categories. Coverage and catalog matching depend on the archive.
