Allow Hiding/Deleting Custom Lists
I want to have more control over how many custom lists I have to scroll through to find things.
I would like a way to hide/delete custom lists (particularly the AI recommendation lists) to reduce clutter.21 votes -
Upgrade apps
Please expand the functionality of the applications. At the moment, the available options are very limited.
Add the same features that already exist on the website: adding friends, creating lists, ratings and reviews, and full profile functionality.
Also, enable subscription purchases directly through the app.
Please ensure that when users tap on buttons, they are not redirected to the website, but can access all features within the app itself.21 votesKeep in mind that Simkl Lists is designed to be very simple, with a primary function to quickly mark something as watched.
You can install Simkl V2 Beta as a PWA on mobile devices for full functionality using this tutorial: https://docs.simkl.org/how-to-use-simkl/advanced-usage/platform-integration/mobile-apps/home-screen-app

The ability to disable a certain section entirely, like TV Shows.
In case that someone is not interested in TV Shows entirely, then why would all that information about TV Shows appear in their profile?!. How about creating an essential option to disable such section completely, and remove all its related data (news, suggestions, recommendations, and even from the watched stats calculator!). Wouldn't that be nice?. ^_^

Plex Sync
Please add a feature so we can sync our view in the Plex too, so if one day you setup new server or watch stuff somewhere else, it sync with your Plex and you know you watched already.

Display scores from Rotten Tomatoes and Metacritic
I usually consider scores from Rotten Tomatoes (both critic and audience) more than IMDb, so having both and some others would be very good.

Mobile Website vs the Mobile App
The mobile website is very aesthetically pleasing to look at but the app is so bland and boring by comparison, I included a side by side pic. Itd be nice if the app was updated to look like the mobile site. Also, please add a way for us to update our watching from the homepage of the mobile site. Currently on the mobile site you have to tap on a show and go to another page to update your watched episodes but we should be able to do that right from the homepage. Underneath each show on the Watch Next…

Right now you can add the website to your Home screen which will work as an app on your phone. Here’s how:
iPad or iPhone
Launch Safari app. *Please note that this does not work from the “Chrome” app.Enter into the address field the https://simkl.com URL of the website you want to create a shortcut to. Tap Go.
Tap the icon featuring a right-pointing arrow coming out of a box along the top of the Safari window to open a drop-down menu.
Tap Add to Home Screen. The “Add to Home” dialog box will appear, with the icon that will be used for this website on the left side of the dialog box.
Enter the name for the shortcut using the on-screen keyboard and tap Add. Safari will close automatically and you will be taken to where the icon is located on your iPad’s desktop.

Sync with Plex Watchlist
Now that Plex has fully released its Discover feature I find myself using its Watchlist a lot to mark things that I plan to watch. It would be great if that could be imported to Simkl. And if possible (but I imagine difficult) also sync the other way, from Simkl to Plex's Watchlist.
I'm aware that Plex does not have an "official" API, but the endpoints exist and quite a few apps already use them. Overseerr for example has Watchlist integration as well: https://github.com/sct/overseerr/blob/be047427df62e480fc9b69cb93258837ed72bcf4/server/api/plextv.ts#L263.

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…

"Collected" tag/flag for episodes
Trakt used to do this for me, then then broke it and then... well, we all know what's happening with that dumpster fire!
Essentially all I'm after is a way to track episodes / movies that I have in my collection (ie have ripped / downloaded). I don't care about format (VHS, 720p, 4K... doesn't matter), just that I have it. A tick box to say "got it" is all I need.
A count of episodes (so I can easily spot missing ones) would be an additional lovely thing to have.

Contributor or VIP Edit details button.
There should be an edit button, where people who are VIP or Contributors can make edits to series information, I've found a few mistakes on a couple of anime shows and tv series and even a few movies. Where they are falsely listed as Porn or something different all together. Below I've listed a photo that has edits I've made to show what I suggest, they are highlighted in red.
