Questions, answered

Will it rent or buy anything on my account?

No. WebRun never rents, buys or subscribes to a title. It reads your watchlist and tells you what is available, and any purchase is made by you.

Does it change my watchlist or Up Next queue?

No. Adding, removing and reordering titles stays entirely with you. WebRun reads the list and reports what is coming.

Can I get texted only for certain shows?

Yes. Mark the titles you care about as must-watch at setup and the SMS fires only for those. Everything else stays in the Friday Telegram digest.

Put this on autopilot.
