genre searching cross match
If it was possible to cross search categories on movies/tv/anime that would be really good. For example being able to see all comedies is good but it would be good if I could add that to romance or drama or both and maybe family friendly etc. ie. be able to narrow down the search a bit more. In expansion to this I know there are sub categories on shows that i've watched but there's no way to actually filter by those categories unless you first find a film which is linked to it so it would be good to expand…

Keyboard shortcuts
It would be nice if the site would support (more) keyboard shortcuts. Especially when setting up a new profile, you go through a lot of series/movies. It would be awesome if you could hit right/left arrow to focus the next item in the list, hit 1 to 9 (or 0 for 10, I guess) to provide a stars rating, and some clever keys for adding to lists.

Full support for Spanish language and Bilingual content
Spanish is the fastest growing language in the USA and is also one of the fastest growing languages in the world. A great deal of this content is available with English audio or subtitles.
Many streaming platforms are adding a lot of Spanish and/or Bilingual content (Netflix, Disney+, Hulu, etc.) due to the increase in market share.
This is a great way to increase both Simkl's content and user base!
With more than 37 million speakers, Spanish is by far the most spoken non-English language in the U.S. today among people ages 5 and older. It is also one of…9 votes -

Block specific languages in suggestions
I find it really annoying that I get Indian, Chinese, Russian or French spoken language titles coming up regularly in my suggested movie options. The only mildly bollywood film I've ever watched is 'bend it like beckam', however ever since watching it I get loads of Indian language suggestions. I like anime, so suddenly I get Chinese language live action titles. I speak German, so I'm Ok with German titles but for some reason I also get inundated with French ones? I've no idea why its suggesting Russian.
Is is possible to block specific languages from suggestions? Can I just…

UI improvements for more menu
These are all improvements for the menu that appears when hovering over a film/tv show. The one that shows "More" menu and the rating at the bottom.
First of all, get rid of the menu. Don't make me click twice to add a movie to my plan to watch, watched or whatever. On hover, line some icons on the left and right and have the the words of what the icon does appear when you hover over it. It should only take one click for me to mark something as something I want to watch, have watched or whatever.
Never…

Setting for start of week in calendar view
Add a setting to select which day to use as the beginning of a week. Where I'm from, weeks are most often displayed as Sunday through Saturday rather then Simkl's default of Monday through Sunday.

Greater compartmentalizing
Allow the user to compartmentalize the website, to see any combination of the categories instead of all three. i.e. Anime and movies only. TV shows and movies are already heavily embedded in culture, thus tracking and getting recommendations isn't necessary for some. Just the same, a lot of people don't like anime or TV. Give the capability to disable these sections, or minimize them.

show the name of the movie/tvshow/anime on the lenguage of the location of the user
Sometimes it is hard to find a movie, tvshow or anime, because you do not know in what lenguage it's the name on Simkl.
Would be great that by the "location" option on the profile settings, the web show the names the movie, tvshow or anime have on that location.
IMDB, show on the info of a movie,tvshow or anime, the different names it have for some locations. Maybe Simkl could take the names and locations by there.

Rating
I think that it could be great to be able to rate each season of a show and not only the whole serie.. Moreover I wish that the rate can be removed if I wrongly mark a thing (Movie,anime,serie..)

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…

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
