Add the ability to mark shows as watched without adding a date

Trakt Feature Requests

I use a website called Backloggery for tracking the games I play, and they have a super nifty feature called “stealth” that lets you stealth add or stealth update a game - when you do this it updates the entries but does not date stamp them or add them to your timeline.

I would love a feature like this on Trakt. There are SO many shows I completed before using this website that I would love to add, but I don’t want them to be date stamped. This would also be useful for filling in the watched progress of TV shows that I’m tracking current seasons on Trakt now, but earlier seasons are shown as unwatched because I wasn’t using Trakt at the time I watched them.

I agree with this so much! This is far and away the biggest thing missing from trakt for me at the moment for me. If I recall correctly, this has been brought up before and the devs said that there was no plan to implement it, but I hope that they change their minds. I’ve thought about using an older date like 1970-01-01 for all of my unknown shows dates, and have heard of others doing the same, but that feels like a really time consuming and clunky way for users to implement this themselves.

Exactly what I do.
I use 01 January 1950 00:00 so all my “pre Trakt” watched shows or movies are in one place.
It is time consuming to start with but I only do them as and when I come across them when looking for something else.
Its a method when nothing better is available.

Yeah, I’d love this. I currently also have all of these items at a certain date which kind of works but is a bit clunky.
