Auto update new seasons of completed/watching anime into my watch list.
Just like how when tv shows release new seasons simkl auto combines them and informs you there's new episodes to watch.
Currently with anime I get no notifications new seasons are out and it doesn't automatically go into my watch list.

Recommendations for shows should be done like myanimelist
Recommendations for shows should be done like myanimelist, where it's community driven. so many shows have bad recommendations. which in turn make the site annoying to navigate to find good things based on my interests.

"You watched episode 2 of Breaking Bad"5 votes -
Notification when TV Series ends or is resurrected
When the final episode of a TV Series airs, or when a TV series is cancelled, its status changes from Continuing to Ended (on TVDB and on Simkl). Inversely, when a TV Series that was considered to have ended, is rebooted or resurrected, the status changes from Ended back to Continuing. In both cases, it would be very helpful to receive a notification of such a major event in the lifecycle of a show.
Since Simkl has already implemented notifications, adding a notification when the status of a TV Series changes (from Continuing to Ended or vice versa) should be…

Season ranking
we should be able to rank shows individual seasons as well as an overall rating. I think it matters a ton

More detailed watch history + being able to set a watch date.
A major thing preventing me from using this site is that it doesn't have a watch history as detailed as Trakt. If I go into my history, I can see when I watched whatever to the minute.
There's also the option to select "Other Date" when adding something, where I can input any time I want.

Skip a season of a show
There are some anthology series out there of reality shows with every season a new cast. Sometimes a season just didn't is good or I want to skip that season.
Ofcourse you can mark that season as watched without watching it, but a skip season but still watching the show feature would be kinda neat, because I don't have to mark something as watched I didn't watched.
Dropped is no option because I want to skip only a season (So maybe a drop a season feature?)4 votes -
Please add the option to hide IMDB rating scores
The rating can spoil the feeling of a movie and sometimes prevents me from watching a film that I was interested in seeing. There's no harm in having an option to turn off movie rating scores site-wide. Besides that, I really like this website. Thanks

Ratings/Stars should also have a word value like MAL
When you hover over the stars to rate a show, the associated star should also have a word value just like in MAL.
e.g.
10* Masterpiece
9* Great
8* Very good
7* Good
6* Fine
5* Average
4* Bad
3* Very Bad
2* Horrible

Order of the episodes
It would be good if we can change the order of the episodes. It is Last-to-First as default but I would like to sort them First-to-Last.

Add a playlist/subscribe feature for things like the MCU that have many titles being released that should be watched in a certain order.
It would be nice if you could choose to have new titles from the MCU automatically added to your watchlist. Also if you could view a calendar specifically of that universe to make sure you are watching in the right order. For example, the DC superhero shows from the CW overlap episode by episode instead of season by season, which can be a nightmare to manage. Or another example would be Star Wars Clone Wars which inexplicably released episodes out of order, but someone in the Simkl community could create a playlist that has the shows in the right order.

collaborative watch lists
would love to be able to create a collaborative watch list/tracker with another user, a shared list that both users can edit. great for people in a long distance relationship who want to watch together remotely and keep track of what they watch together!

Auto drop series after x time
A feature to put series that the users haven't watched after a while to "dropped" this would make the "dropped" status used much more.
Best way would be to let the user decide the "time limit" and if the user wants it or not. It should also only count series that have new aired episodes that the user haven't watched to avoid problems when waiting for a new season.

Full support for Spanish language and Bilingual content
Spanish is the fastest growing language in the USA and is also one of the fastest growing languages in the world. A great deal of this content is available with English audio or subtitles.
Many streaming platforms are adding a lot of Spanish and/or Bilingual content (Netflix, Disney+, Hulu, etc.) due to the increase in market share.
This is a great way to increase both Simkl's content and user base!
With more than 37 million speakers, Spanish is by far the most spoken non-English language in the U.S. today among people ages 5 and older. It is also one of…9 votes -
Implement a Numeral system in our lists in order for us to rank our item(anime,serie or film depending on the list) from most liked toleast
What I want is to be able to make a rank list in each of my lists of anime, series, and films in order to differentiate the ones I like most from the ones I like least, it would only need to be implemented a numeral system in our list so we can rank up or animes, series and films just in our lists in order to differentiate for example two 10 scores from top 1 to top 2 in my list everything in the ranking system would remain the same. see image for better explanation

More info on ended or cancelled shows
After I end a season of a show first thing I want to know is will there be another season.. perhaps a like to sites like ismyshowcancelled.com or similar. Maybe even a feed back on should it be cancelled or why was it cancelled.
Also on web page that asks for rating.. why can’t you link to the show directly to give it the rating.. or rate right there..
Also need choice to remove anime something I don’t use.
