About FindMyRomantasy
FindMyRomantasy is a discovery site for short dramas: the vertical, ninety-second-episode series that apps like DramaBox and ReelShort publish by the hundred every month. It answers two questions, which app is worth installing and what is worth watching on it, and it is written and run by one person.
Who writes it
Tess Harlow is a pen name. The person behind it runs other websites under their own name and keeps this one separate on purpose: a review site earns trust by being one thing, and the fastest way to lose that is to have it read as a side door to something else. Everything on the site is written by that one person. There is no team, no freelance pool and no content agency.
What the name stands behind is straightforward. Every app carrying an FMR score was installed on a personal phone, watched over weeks rather than hours, and paid for with personal money: the coins, the weekly pass, the auto-renew that had to be cancelled. The 5 series with a reviewed rating were watched to the end. The rest of the 2,004 titles listed carry the platform’s own synopsis and a rating derived from it, and every page says which is which.
What it covers
14 short drama apps, of which 4 have a full review and the rest a researched page built from the public catalogue and the App Store record. A library of the newest English-language series across all of them, sorted by theme and rated on two independent scales: romance heat, and a story rating for violence, threat and dark themes. And a set of guides for the questions that sit in between, such as which app carries the most of one theme, or what landed this month.
The catalogue figures are measurements from our own crawl of the distributor’s library, last refreshed on 26 August 2026, and they move when the catalogue moves. How we review sets out the method in full.
How it is funded
Affiliate commissions, and nothing else. When you tap a gold button and go on to install an app, the app may pay us a commission at no cost to you. Every app on the site is on the same programme at the same rate, which is the structural reason the rankings can be trusted: there is nothing to gain by moving anyone up. There is no advertising, no sponsored placement and no paid review. The affiliate disclosure has the detail.
What it will not do
- Quote a coin price. They change weekly and a stale price is worse than none.
- Call a series good when nobody here has watched it.
- Rank an app because it pays better. It cannot: they all pay the same.
- Host or stream anything. Every episode plays inside the app that owns it.
Corrections and contact
A directory is only as good as the proportion of it that is still true, so corrections are welcome: a wrong rating, a dead link, a series that has left an app.
