Checking in is a manual action used by mobile apps allowing the user to indicate what they are watching right now. While not as effortless as scrobbling, checkins help fill in the gaps. You might be watching live tv, at a friend's house, or watching a movie in theaters. You can simply checkin from your phone or tablet in those situations. The item will display as watching on the site, then automatically switch to watched status once the duration has elapsed.
