The Board is the first screen you see after signing in. It aggregates content rows from every installed addon and places your in-progress titles at the top so you can resume watching without navigating anywhere else.

What you see on the Board

Continue Watching

A dedicated row at the top of the Board shows every title you have started but not finished. Items are sorted by most recently watched and include notification badges for new episodes.

Catalog rows

Below Continue Watching, the Board renders one row per catalog provided by your installed addons — movies, series, channels, and more — each scrollable horizontally.

Notification badges

When a series in your library has unwatched new episodes, a badge appears on the poster so you can spot new content at a glance.

Streaming server warning

If the streaming server is unreachable, a banner appears at the bottom of the Board with options to install the service, dismiss for a month, or never show again.

Continue Watching

The Continue Watching row is powered by your library’s watch state. It appears automatically as soon as you have at least one item with saved progress.
1

Start watching any title

Open a movie or series episode from any catalog or the Discover page. Stremio saves your position automatically.
2

Return to the Board

Navigate back to the Board. The title appears in the Continue Watching row with a progress indicator.
3

Resume playback

Click the item. The player opens at the exact timestamp where you stopped.
You can also view your full Continue Watching list on a dedicated page — look for the Continue Watching link in the sidebar.

How catalog rows are loaded

The Board loads catalog rows lazily as you scroll. Only the rows currently visible (plus a small buffer above and below) are fetched from the addon network. This keeps the initial load fast regardless of how many addons you have installed.
The Board reflects the catalogs exposed by your installed addons. Installing or removing an addon from the Addons page changes which rows appear here.

Notification badges

Badges on Continue Watching items indicate unwatched episodes available for a series you are following. The badge count comes from the notifications model and updates whenever Stremio syncs with the addon network.

Streaming server warning

Certain stream types (torrents, local files) require the Stremio streaming server to be running locally. If the server cannot be reached, a warning banner appears at the bottom of the Board with the following actions:
