There should be an option in the settings menu that allows users to choose the tracking level they desire (for example, a dropdown list called "Tracking Level" with the options "basic", "standard" and "data nerd").

When a user sets their level to basic, they will not be required to record watch dates and can view their lists without any indication of the watch date. This will essentially simplify tracking to a watchlist, watched history, collected and rated. The only date visible could be a "date added" which simply indicates when you added it to a list in Trakt.

Reason for suggestion: When first signing up to Trakt and wanting to add a backlog of films and tv shows I have already watched to my history, the idea of entering the date that I watched them is pretty daunting and just defaulting to release date, although providing a quick option, then makes all of your statistics feel wrong and the way in which lists are sorted by watch date really plays on any glimmer of organisational "OCD" you may have. I want to take advantage of the features in Trakt to track all the things I have watched and all the things I want to and to be able to quickly add and move items around in these lists. Having access to show schedules and upcoming releases is also very handy, however I am reluctant to get stuck in as I feel like I can't get my history right. The dates have essentially provided a barrier for me to using the service regularly.

Hello Trakt.tv team,

I have had my Trakt.tv Progress page bookmarked to my home screen on my Android phone for well over a year now. It's so functional that I see no reason for an app, and I thank you sincerely for that. However there is one small but very relevant detail that I personally feel would make your mobile site much more comprehensible; that is having the show info displayed under the episode's visual aid/screenshot, as opposed to the info displaying above as it presently does.

Here you can see that on the mobile site the episode info is above the visual aid and far away from the controls (checking as watched, adding to my collection, saving to lists, and displaying streamable sources): https://imgur.com/a/nZqSZ

I personally especially expect to see the info displayed below because on your desktop site the episode info is displayed left → right (see here: https://i.imgur.com/TXYsdSn.png), which typically coordinates to up → down on mobile. I find this small detail consistently very confusing and less effective as it stands, and I ask that you only move episode details from the top of the visual aid to beneath it on mobile. Thank you so much for your service. I greatly appreciate both your website and your user service.

Sincerely,

JS

Ever since the upgrade to TRAKT2.0 I have been missing one of the calendar styles that I loved in the old site, I can't remember what it was called exactly but it had just the right amount of info and the right amount of space usage that it fit perfectly with the huge amount of stuff I watch weekly.

So I made a custom CSS to one of the available styles to mimic that feel, and i've been using it for about *looks at the calendar* 14 months now, and it's working juuust fine (I actually can't remember how it looked before I messed with it). So now i'm proposing that style to be made official with some modifications to it and suggestions on how to make it better.

First, here's how it looks:

Here's the general idea of it:

- Cramming as much info as possible in as much little space as possible, thus giving you an overview of everything that is coming up without all the extra stuff that isn't as important
- The buttons are moved on top of the episode, as a mouesover thing
- Just the show's name + episode number
- Dimmed screenshots, I dunno why I added it but it feels better, more interactive, I think, also easier on the eyes. Doesn't interfere with the Fade filter, as that has a stronger transparency value.

Suggestions on how to make this better:

- starting with the dates, if you're going to make this compact, make that smaller as well. Instead of a big number and two three letters on two lines, it's just one line
- I understand the hover thing makes it unusable on mobile, so a long press should be a good alternative (or just marking this style Desktop Only)
- Episode titles on hover over episode number, also it should be the show's name then the episode number
- When more than 2 episodes of a show are dropping (ie: Netflix) show just the first 2, then add a button underneath it that says "Show 8 more" (should apply this to the dock as well, so my Calendar doesn't get oversized by Netflix crap. This probably should be a tickbox option outside of this style.
- VIP Ads should first try to slot themselves on empty days (I suppose saturday/friday on most people's calendars are empty) or the days that have significantly less epiosodes than the other days, before slotting themselves inbetween episodes.

aaaaand... that's it, I suppose.
I'm attaching right here my CSS stuff so you can see what I've done exactly, and for the other TRAKT users (at least, the ones who know how to make use of this) in case you don't like the proposition.

It's a bit wonky and rough on the edges, and CSS isn't even my strongest suit and I probably should supplemented it with some JS as well to work out the kinks but i'm too busy watching stuff to be arsed about the kinks. Also, i love half-assing things, it's like... my thing

So my Plex library syncs to Trakt, so I have a pretty big collection of shows that I'm watching and a good amount of shows that I'm not watching. After initializing this sync I realized that my calendar page now includes collected shows that I have on my server (like Powerpuff Girls) but do not watch. If I "hide" collections then it will hide the shows that I do watch as well.

I'd like a way to disable collections from interfering with the calendar page as a whole so that it still behaves like it did before (a show appears on the calendar if you have trakted a watch before) but I can still have my library synced to Trakt for the convenience of finding content I'm able to watch.

When using a touch screen, the trakt website in general is too sensitive for scrolling/ navigating. We have to pay close attention to where we put our fingers and how to scroll.

Example: When swiping my finger up to scroll down, suddenly trakt is loading the page for the movie I saw yesterday. Or when I scroll through the movie section, suddenly I've added a random movie to my watchlist; sometimes I don't even notice until afterwards.

Thought at first this was a performance issue, and it very well might be, but this is seen on iPad, iPhone, android phone and tablet, with varying specs. You know better than me what the cause is, but as I see it, if it is a performance issue, then it is not connected to hardware, but rather website optimization.

Over the last few months, I noticed that I've become really obsessed with finishing watching things before midnight local time to avoid messing up my dashboard graph with stats that appear on the "wrong day".

It occurred to me tonight, after yet another movie finished just after midnight, that actually, software can solve this problem.

I propose that Trakt take the timestamp and duration of each item played into account when generating graphs, such that if (as happened tonight) I finish a 126-minute movie at 0:03, 123 of those minutes still appear in the graph for the previous day, and 3 of them appear on the same date as the play.

One could nitpick this and say the split should be 122 and 4, for example; I've no preference either way there. I can also see potential objections with regard to the genre & play type counts that appear on the graph: Does "1 movie" have to become "1 movie" + "1 movie", for example, or does it become "0.95 movie" and "0.05 movie"?

Whatever the answers to those (and other) questions, I think this sort of commitment to statistical accuracy can only help in the long run.
