Search should be more flexible with queries
The search functionality for Tv shows and movies requires the exact title be supplied. It should be more flexible, allowing for spelling mistakes or missing determiners (the, a, an..). Some shows will not come up in search due to this issue e.g. 'A to Z'

Translations
I wanted to ask if it would be possible to put the site in several languages, there is this site www.localeapp.com that helps, so the users helped translate SIMKL for several languages. This is how TMDb did it. And they would gain many more users because not everybody knows how to read in English.

Season Binge Watching Alert
Features for those who only start watching a season after it is done airing - those who like binge watching.
- Alert for when season finishes airing.
40 votesAdded binge alerts for Anime
When Anime in my Plan to Watch and On Hold lists has released all episodes (anime ended, you can start binging) https://simkl.com/settings/notifications/ -
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.

Sort by Air Date of "Next episode to Watch"
Useful when catching up on related shows that crossover a lot, like Arrowverse (Arrow, Flash, Supergirl, Legends of Tomorrow).

Series ended on Post Page
I would like see series ended across the front of the poster on the profile page. Similar to how you have the episode numbers listed.

Information on sequels for anime on the page
For example, for Sword Art Online, you could put its sequel, Sword Art Online II, and its movie, Sword Art Online: Extra Edition, directly above the "people who liked Sword Art Online also liked..." section.

Have an option of entering in when you watched it...on release day or some other day
Like on trakt.tv you click on watch and then the website gives you an option: Right Now, On Release Date, or Other Date. I'd like to have that...thanks!

Netflix and Amazon Network Categories
You do not have a category for Netflix or Amazon under networks. Doing this would allow us to see shows provided by those media content creators as they do act as 'networks' in that sense.

Sort by streaming availability
Allow "include" view option based on streaming availability. Only videos available to stream (on the sites we have access to) are displayed.
If we could include/exclude videos based on availability, SIMKL would be the go-to source when trying to decide what to watch.
My list doesn't help much if it's littered with things I want to see, but can't watch.

Different Rating Scales
The ability to switch to rating scales other than integers from 1-10 would be useful. I prefer a 0.x-10.0 scale (or 1-100 or whatever) for more fine tuned rankings.

Add screenshot to an episode
It would be nice if we can add a screenshot or an image to an episode that it doesn't have it. Like it happens with this show
30 votesRight now you can add screenshots directly into thetvdb.com for that episode and it will appear on Simkl as well. This will help the whole TV community.

Add a planner/scheduler feature
Here's an idea: you guys could add a feature through which users can plan/set goals for what and when they want to watch. For example, tomorrow I want to watch two episodes of Friends, the next day The Shining, then the day after three episodes of Attack On Titan...
Or it could also have something like: By the end of this month I want to have finished Season 3 of The Walking Dead, every Christopher Nolan movie, Full Metal Alchemist...29 votesIt will be available as custom lists feature.

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.

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.

Calendar display
I think it would be a good idea if we could have some way to customize de display of our calendar. For example de size o it, the colours, if we want to show the images of the shows or only the text, etc..
