🔗 Adding a Drama from Another App
The easiest way to add a drama you found on iQIYI, DramaBox, ReelShort, Netflix or anywhere else.
It works the same on iPhone, Android, and desktop — no setup needed.
⭐
Paste & Track — works on every device
iPhone · Android · iPad · Computer · No setup required
1
Open iQIYI, DramaBox, ReelShort, Netflix — or any website — and go to the drama's page
2
Copy the link — how depends on where you are:
• In a browser: tap the address bar → long press → Copy
• In an app: tap Share → Copy Link
3
Come back here and tap 📋 Paste Link in the top bar — the form opens with the link already filled in!
💡 Track My Dramas will also try to pull in the cover image automatically.
🤖
Android bonus — share directly from any app
Chrome browser only · one-time setup
If you install Track My Dramas to your home screen using Chrome, it shows up in your Android share sheet.
Then instead of copying and coming back, you can tap Share inside any app and select Track My Dramas directly.
Setup (one time)
1
Open this site in Chrome on your Android phone
2
Tap the three dots ⋮ → Add to Home screen → Add
3
Done — open any drama app, tap Share, and select Track My Dramas
⚠️ Track My Dramas not showing in share list? You need to uninstall the app from your home screen and reinstall it — Android only registers share targets on a fresh install.
🍎
iPhone/iPad power tip — iOS Shortcuts
Works from Safari share sheet · one-time setup
If you want a one-tap option from Safari's share button, you can create a free iOS Shortcut.
Most users find Paste & Track above simpler — this is for those who want the extra convenience.
Setup — 3 steps, one time only
1
Open the Shortcuts app → tap + → tap Add Action
Search for Receive → select Receive input from Share Sheet
Tap Apps and 18 more → change it to URLs only
Set If there's no input to Stop and Respond
2
Add another action → search for Text → select Text
In the text field type: https://trackmydramas.com?share_url=
Then tap the variable picker (the blue token icon) → insert Shortcut Input
This joins your site URL with the drama link.
3
Add another action → search for Open URLs
Tap the URL field → tap the variable picker → select Text (the result from step 2)
Tap the shortcut name at the top → rename it Track This Drama
Tap the settings icon (⋯) → turn on Show in Share Sheet → tap Done
How to use it
1
Open a drama in Safari (or any browser) and go to its page
2
Tap the Share button (the box with an arrow ↑) → scroll down → tap Track This Drama
3
Track My Dramas opens with the link pre-filled — add the title and save
⚠️ This works from browser pages. For drama apps (iQIYI, DramaBox), use Paste & Track instead — tap Share → Copy Link in the app, then come back and tap Paste & Track.
