  4. Retro Crush isn't just free. It has a no ads paid section. $5 a month for zero ads. Much better. This should be noted.

    Technically it's on my TCL tv. Google TV. Could be online.. But still it has Zero ads because I'm paying for it. You don't have RetroCrush down as paid. And it's darn cheap for getting rid of the ads...

  5. On-site Notification Center for New Releases

    Simkl currently supports email and push notifications for new episodes, films, and anime, but some may find these channels overwhelming or easy to miss. E-Mails get buried in crowded inboxes, and mobile push notifications are quickly dismissed and forgotten.

    Thus the idea to introduce a dedicated, persistent notification system directly on the Simkl website.

    Key Features:
    - On-site Notification Center / Meta Box
    A clickable icon (e.g. bell) in the header or sidebar showing the number of unread notifications.
    - Structured History View
    A full-page view listing all past notifications grouped by date and type (TV, anime, movie), with filters…

  6. Import Streaming Platform Watchlists to "Plan to Watch"

    Simkl does a great job tracking what we’ve already watched, but it completely skips over unwatched shows saved to our platform-specific watchlists—like Crunchyroll’s My Queue or Netflix’s My List. These lists often represent what we actually plan to watch next, but Simkl doesn’t import them.

    The Request:
    Let users import their unwatched watchlist items from supported streaming services into Simkl’s “Plan to Watch” list. Start with Crunchyroll and expand from there.

    How It Could Work:

    A one-time bulk import of saved-but-unwatched shows

    Optional auto-sync to keep things updated when users add new items

    Avoid duplicates by checking against the existing…

  7. Allow users to choose default sorting + disposition of My Lists and their content

    My Lists are sorted by "last modification" by default. So if we rather have another sorting (ie: alphabetical) ones must change the "sort by" option... Every. Single. Time.

    Please allow users to choose default sorting and disposition for My Lists and their content.

  8. foreign airdates

    Choose the language of your choice and see the airdates in that language. i mostly watch everything in german, but need to find the german release date by myself. I really like the calendar feature but it's not helping for non english releases.

  11. More obvious UX for marking a show as watched, planning to watch, etc

    Every time I go to change the status of a movie or TV show from planning to watch to watched or something like that, there's some brief confusion as to what the status is. The UI just doesn't make it very obvious if an option is selected or not already. I would really like to see improvement here

  12. 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.

  13. Movie Edition Relationships

    Much like how Anime entries can show “Directly Related” or “Indirectly Related” series, the Movies page should also highlight special editions and alternate cuts.

    By introducing relational links for various movie versions—such as Extended Edition, Director’s Cut, Blu-ray Edition, Uncensored, and Unrated—users can easily see every variant in one place.

    Suggested Edition Categories:

    • Extended Edition

    • Director’s Cut

    • Blu-ray Edition

    • Uncensored Edition

    • Unrated Version

    • And few more...

    Examples of Related Editions:

    • Spider-Man: No Way Home

    • Spider-Man: No Way Home – The More Fun Stuff Version

    • Spider-Man: No Way Home – Extended Edition

    • The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the…

  14. Gifting SIMKL VIP Subscription

    Wouldn’t it be fantastic if users could gift a year of VIP status to someone else?

    If this option isn’t available already, adding it could significantly boost the community’s growth.

    Imagine SIMKL VIP or PRO members having the ability to send a SIMKL VIP/Pro subscription gift to their eligible long time followers or following or close friends.

    • Users can make this gifting private or announce publicly (share) in activity.
    • Special Badge received to the (Buyer)
    • Special Notification alert

    While Gifting, also adding

    • Gift Message (200 Character limit) - Possibilities to also share Netflix Codes (with animation reveal)

  15. Customizable Rating Date/Time

    Currently there is no option to be able to set any “Custom Watched” date hopefully it will be available soon, but the rating date is always locked to “now.”

    That often creates confusion—especially if you watched something weeks ago and only just gave it a score.

    Consider adding an option where, When you mark a title as “Watched” (and haven’t rated it yet),

    • you’re prompted to rate it immediately, with the rating date automatically matching your watched date.

    • At minimum, providing a way to manually edit the rating date would be a big improvement. (When you rated this)

    • Rating History…

  16. Historical Popularity Metrics (e.g., “Peak Rating Charts / Ranking”)

    A user maintains a personal library of movies and TV shows and wants to uncover which titles were exceptionally popular at any point in time—rather than only seeing their current standing.

    For example, among 100 saved films, some may have once ranked in the Top 10, even if they’re no longer trending today.

    Offering a way to sort and filter by historical popularity would help surface those past hits.

    Suggested Metrics:

    • Peak Rank: The highest position a title ever achieved on the charts.

    • Duration at Peak Rank: Number of days/weeks a title remained at its all-time best position.

    • Total Days/Weeks…

  19. Multiple profiles in one account

    I would love to have 2 profiles in my account. At this moment I have the SImkl account for content I've seen in English language. And additionally I have a trakt account for content I've seen in my own language (German). To combine it in one account would be a dream for me!

    You can use Auto lists or saved Layoutts with filter in V2 Beta in one account - create a filter of your watchlist + Language filter

  20. Add German Translation to the Page

    Please add a language switch to the page and let me enjoy the website in german language. That would be awesome.
