I can’t select a watch date on the new Trakt web app.
Detailed description
When I click Mark as watched and choose Specify date , the date picker doesn’t open and I can’t type a date manually either.
I’ve tested this with both movies and TV shows.
I’ve also tried:
Google Chrome
Chrome Incognito
Firefox
The issue happens in all desktop browsers.
However, it works correctly on the mobile website, where the date picker opens normally.
Could someone confirm if this is a known issue with the new web interface?
Thank you.

Hi,
To mark items using the “Other date” option on web, you need to choose between which items you watched it:
After you choose a spot, you can manually edit the date if you want.

This new design to add “other date” is really annoying, forcing users to scroll down to look for the exact place. Why adding a useless extra step to the workflow? Any reason behind this choice? Just adding the date/time (as it was before) wasn’t enough?
That seems like a horrible way to add old items to your watch history compared to V2 where you can just… type the date and time you watched it.
The approach itself isn’t so bad, but it should be possible to enter a date without selecting the range first
