Stop using AI to create advertising and marketing assets
Y'all should know better than using the art plagiarism machine to promote a website dedicated to the appreciate of art. And if you try to censor anyone dissenting on this you're just gonna ensure that they never, ever support your site.

Put "Time left to watch" back on the bottom of the list of shows
There used to be info on how many days of TV you had left unwatched at the bottom of the lists. That's gone? I found that really useful, please bring it back.
6 votesV2 Beta uses a different way of showing a list of your shows, divided by number of shows per page for better performance, while V1 showed all shows on one page, so not easy to add a total counter when it only selects a portion of your shows to display without sacrifising performance.
We do show time stats on watching list eps left to watc in your stats page, the second option currently is to switch to V1 interfacte at https://simkl.com/settings/pro/

After selecting episode as watched automatically refresh 'next episode to watch' info panel
When you select episodes as watched, you have to manually refresh the page for the 'your next episode to watch' info panel to update.
It would be great if the 'your next episode to watch' info panel automatically refreshed after you select episodes as watched.

Show friends' statuses on product page
Currently I can only see their ratings on the right side, but it would be nice to see their statuses as well (planned, seen etc...). Because now I have no way of knowing if they have seen something but didn't rate it.

Display If an anime is Dubbed on the anime’s webpage
When looking at an anime’s webpage it could say “English dub” next to the other tags related to show. Or include that it’s dubbed somewhere on the anime’s page.

Option for dub-only episode count on anime
I don't know if this would be harder to code than I think, but now that there's an option for separate sub/dub notifications, I think it would be useful to have an option to only count dub episodes in the total number. So, for example, I have a series that says there are 9 episodes out, but only 7 are dubbed. And sometimes dubs happen later, so it will say the whole season is out when only 1 or 2 episodes are available in English.

Enhancing Media Ratings: Introducing half point ratings!
As you are aware, the current rating system for programs, movies, and other media allows for ratings on a scale of 1 to 10. I propose an enhancement to this system by introducing the ability to rate in half-point increments, such as 4.5 stars or 9.5 stars. This modification would provide a more precise and nuanced rating capability, allowing users to evaluate programs, movies, and anime with greater accuracy.

Customizable Overview Page
More ways to customize your overview page. Like moving sections, adding new sections (like a favourites section or reviews section), adding images and text. Kinda like the steam profile page and how its so customizable.

Share unlisted link to "My TV Shows", "My Anime", "My Movies"
When a profile is private, one is unable to share a link to their list of watched movies for example without changing the profile privacy setting to Public. This is a shame.
Like with lists, we can make them unlisted instead of private and then share the unlisted link. It would be great if "My TV Shows", "My Anime", and "My Movies" could be shared in this way too. Currently when on one of those three pages, the floppy disk icon on the right provides a popup of options, one being the Share option, but it only copies the page's…

Label split cour anime seasons in primary title
Currently when viewing my anime list on Simkl, it's impossible at a glance to tell what is what when a season is split up into multiple parts.
I've attached example screenshots below, first of Simkl and then of the same entries on MAL. On Simkl, it's impossible to tell which entry is which part without clicking onto the entry and reading the subtitle.
JoJo no Kimyou na Bouken: Stone Ocean appears to have the parts in the label, but nothing else seems to.

Personalized recommendations based on custom lists
It will be good that we get personalized recommendations based on our custom lists, and not just watch history.

Predict your ratings...
It will be good if the system can/will predicts your ratings for an unrated show/anime/movie before you actually rated it. That way, you know if the system predicts your taste well or not.

Grouping anime seasons
It would be much better if you could merge seasons of Anime, instead of Relations. So when a new related anime, OVA, or a movie is released, we just have that on the watchlist

Make Custom Lists public permanently so we don’t still have to use other apps like Letterboxd, Serializd, TV Time etc
If it’s buggy that’s fine for now. Free days of Pro can be unlocked so they’re available anyways but it should be permanent. Otherwise we’ll have to import all these lists from different apps when it’s made public on Simkl. And with Letterboxd planning to introduce TV Shows to their app this year, you may miss the chance to show you’re the best all-in-one media tracker/rater. Which is why I’d also suggest making the V2 layout/look public soon too and get a better friend/feed style. Then allow 0-100 rating system and you’re pretty much perfect

Optimizing Streaming Subscriptions: Tailoring Your Choices to Your Watchlist
Notifying which streaming service to subscribe to (Netflix, Disney, etc) based on watchlist planning.
For - streaming membership expense management.
More Context
Rather than relying on the abundance of streaming apps available, consider a different approach. How about a service that advises users on which streaming platforms to subscribe to and which to cancel based on their watchlist? For instance, it could recommend subscribing to Netflix this month because two shows with all episodes released are available, and then suggest canceling other subscriptions next month if the desired shows aren't on those platforms or haven't completed their season. The goal…4 votes
