Global/Mixed lists
It would be grate to have mixed lists and not only "TV Shows"/"Anime"/"Movies" lists, but a global one where we could put the 3 types.

Allow marking a show as "Completed" without marking every episode as watched
Currently, marking a show as completed automatically flags all of its episodes as watched. For many shows this is fine, but it doesn't fit how people actually watch certain series.
For anime especially, a lot of episodes aren't essential viewing, filler arcs, recap/summary episodes, side stories, and so on. Plenty of viewers intentionally skip these but still consider the show "finished." Right now there's no way to reflect that: I either have to mark episodes I never watched, or leave the show as incomplete even though I've seen everything I wanted to.12 votes -
UX enhancement - Unify the search box
Summary : Users are dumb, help them and reduce the simkl teams support workload.
The vast majority of support threads are along the lines of "My show/movie/animie" is not listed
🔹 Missing - 68 support threads
🔹 Missing Movie - 244 support threads
🔹 Missing tv show - 358 support threadsIf the search results were unified i.e. searching for "Utopia" gives the result for the TV Show, The Movie and The Anime, in one place, reducing the number of "my thing is missing / please add it" threads would be reduced.
Lets assume that most users will…

Personal recommendations based on personal ratings
Currently, Simkl generates recommendations based on what you've watched. It would be much better to build recommendations based on personal ratings. For example, I don't want to see something similar that I marked as 1-5, for example, which is kind of more logical.

Dub completion notifications + dub filter and infos in general
Hey! I was referred here by Azmarine from the forum. I'm a VIP member and honestly one of those people who recommends SIMKL to basically everyone I know, so this comes from a good place!
There's one thing that's been genuinely frustrating me for a while though. I watch a lot of shows and anime dubbed, and SIMKL only notifies me when something finished airing, not when the dub is done. It sounds minor but it really isn't. I get excited about a new show or season, start watching, get invested after like 4 episodes and then the dub just…

Option to choose if you want separate tabs or combined.
So, when I'm looking for something to watch, I'd like the option to combine everything (TV, Movies & Anime) instead of having to go to each tab and search through them. Would it be possible to get an option where we can combine all three on the discovery/recommendation page? I'd also like lists to be combined, too, instead of having to separate them.

Add option to list only free streaming, not ones you have to pay for.
I love that I can choose movies that are already streaming so I can easily pick my next movie for the night. I also love that I can choose all the apps I have and it tells me where I can watch the movie I want. What I would love is to be able to see which movies are free on one of the streaming apps I already have, rather than having to click on the movie and then finding out that it's on Prime but I have to pay $19.99 to stream it.

Social Watch Activity: Which Friends Are Watching / Recently Watched Episode or Film
I would love to see SIMKL introduce a more social “watch activity” system for movies, TV episodes, and anime episodes.
Right now, we can already see friend ratings, but it would be amazing if SIMKL expanded this into real-time and recent viewing activity.
1. Show who is currently watching
For a movie, TV episode, or anime episode, display:
- Which users are currently watching it
- How many people are currently watching
- How many of your friends (followers/following) are currently watching
Example:
- “63 people watching”
- “5 of your friends are watching now”
This would make SIMKL feel much more alive and social.

A Calendar option that shows when Dub is released
Currently the the calendar only shows when the sub episodes of a show are released. It would be cool if there was a filter to show only when the dub is released.

Optional setting to group related anime seasons and cours into one series
I recently migrated from TV Time and Trakt, and the way separate anime seasons and cours are structured and displayed on Simkl is currently one of the biggest obstacles for me.
Many anime that are presented as one show with multiple seasons or continuous episode numbering on services such as Crunchyroll and Trakt are listed as completely separate anime titles on Simkl.
For example, SPY x FAMILY Season 1 consists of 25 episodes on Crunchyroll and Trakt, while Simkl separates it into two entries with 12 and 13 episodes. I understand that this may follow AniDB’s structure and that the…

See all comments posted by a user similar to how History works
Would be great if we had an option to view all comments (that we leave) just as we can view our history, similar to a certain website called trakt.tv (which has recently gone to shaite, unfortunately) excuse my language, silly me.
But anyhow, viewing all of our comments plus the ability to import them from trakt would be a huge plus, thanks!12 votes -
When selecting "Marked as watched" have a confirmation before removing the watch history
Hi there. I've come from Trakt and I'm still getting used to things. When I saw "Marked as watched" on something I had seen, I selected it. The expected result was that it would show me when I had seen it. The actual result was that it unmarked it as watched, and deleted the history. Now I know how it works I'll avoid it, however, I think it would be a good idea to have a "are you sure you want to delete all watch history for this episode/movie?" confirmation.
Maybe even a 5 second timer after where you have…

Enable adding TV episodes (not just seasons) to lists
One of the things the disastrous Trakt v3 upgrade killed was the ability to add individual TV show episodes to lists. I used that feature extensively and losing it was one of the last straws that caused me to fire them.
This is useful in a lot of different scenarios, like for listing actor/actress appearances in filmography lists.
One of my favorite applications was curating lists of holiday-themed episodes (like Christmas, Thanksgiving and Halloween episodes) I could refer back to each year when I'm in the mood to watch something season-appropriate. Everybody has Christmas music playlists and many have Christmas…

Show voice actors etc. based on the users set language
Pay tribute to those whose voices make not only Animes come to life, but also transfer jokes to our mother tongue. Never ask yourself again where you know that voice from.
Sorted or filtered by language, maybe a setting in the user settings that uses the browsers language as default. Fallback could be English.

Non-binary option
It would be cool if on your profile you could set your gender as some form of non-binary option.
