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…1 vote -
Being able to manually modify the identification on kodi
Hello, I use the simkl tracker on kodi so I don't have to do it manually
However I have several anime (for example initial d, city hunter etc.) which are not right in the identification
For example for season 2 of initial d given that on simkl it is considered as a second series and not there sequel while on kodi it is considered as the sequel, the tracker cannot find what it corresponds to
I would therefore like to know if it was possible to add an option to the Kodi tracker to manually select if desired which series…

Episode Count Improvements
UK TV shows often air specials, especially Christmas Specials. Since they're not part of any season, these specials do not count toward the show's episode count. But they should!
The specials on TVDB used to be a mess, but have recently been organized and categorized. Any special listed as an "Episodic Special" is a valid episode of the show, and should be counted in the show's episode count.
Furthermore, Unassigned Episodes are currently counted, but shouldn't be!

TV Show Type
Lists V2 allows selections based on TV Show Type. The listed show types are TV Series, Animation, Entertainment, Documentary and Youtube. What's the source of this show type?
I basically only want to see scripted shows. Even when I only select TV Series, and exclude all other types, Australian sports show Formula 1 (amazingly ranked #16 all time) is still displayed. So are variety shows like The Carol Burnett Show. If I scrolled down far enough, even reality TV shows may be listed.
While the idea is great, the underlying info sucks. Please consider extracting the show type from TV…

Activity Feed
Add an activity feed similar to AniList, which shows your friends' activity. In my opinion, adding a more social aspect to the site would do wonders for usage, since seeing others sharing their activity motivates us to share our own as well.
Even though it's a different case, I'm using Duolingo as an example to illustrate my point: According to Duolingo's own stats, people who add friends are "5.6x more likely to finish their course". I'm certain there are other similar case studies, but in general it does seem like social features can drive usage.
This social aspect is the…

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.

Display IMDB episode and season ratings
When listing seasons and episodes of a show, display ratings from IMDB for each episode and each season. Rating episodes and seasons on Simkl would be great too, but this seems like a much easier thing to implement that would meet half the need: answering the question of which episodes to skip!

Add individual episodes to Plan to Watch
It would be nice to have the ability to add individual episodes to my "Plan to Watch" instead of having to add an entire series.
For example, I'm interested in seeing a few episodes from House Hunters International, but this show has over 150 seasons. I'm only interested in a couple episodes so adding the show to my list isn't helpful, but right now I'm having to keep track of those episodes elsewhere.

Recommendations for shows should be done like myanimelist
Recommendations for shows should be done like myanimelist, where it's community driven. so many shows have bad recommendations. which in turn make the site annoying to navigate to find good things based on my interests.
