I'm seeing movies I didn't add - I'm not sure where to put this

In a few apps, I actually see movies I know I did not add. I can remove them, but they seem to return, at times. And they’re always the same movies, pretty much. It’s like someone else’s collection is getting mixed up with mine.

Maybe it is one of the apps connected to your accout: Authorized Applications

Do you see anything strange there? Any app that shouldn’t be there?

Also, if those movies are in one app, then it will probably show up in the others once the data syncs. Try finding out which one is the issue and revoke it’s access.

Nothing I haven’t been using for years. The bad thing is, sometimes when it syncs, it adds them to unaffected apps. Then I just have more deleting to do.

That data is coming from somewhere.
My advice is, revoke the access to everything, then remove the movies on Trakt, and go, one by one, on those apps to add them back (before doing that, check if it won’t import those movies again).

They don’t even show up on the Trakt website. It’s weird. I’ve logged in and out of it on everything.

Can you link the movies here?

I don’t have any examples, right now. I just deleted all of them. And the apps that I first noticed doing it don’t seem to be doing it since the last updates. But, this has happened many times before. And it’s not one specific app. It’s just weird how the same things end up in the list, again, sometimes. It’s a battle to get them all out of my lists, and then it might be ok, for a while.

Ok, since they aren’t there right now, it’s hard to know.
If it does happen again, please reply here again and we can investigate the source of those plays and find a way to stop them.

Thanks!! I’m sure it will happen again, since this has been going on for a while. I’ll try to duplicate it, and see if I can record as much info as possible.

It’s happened again. It’s full of the same movies that keep appearing, no matter how many times I remove them. I did not add these. Or haven’t had them on my list for quite some time. But there are a bunch I know I never added.

I’ll ask someone to take a look.

Thanks! I appreciate it.

No, I stopped using Kodi, years ago. So, it’s not that. I only use the collection. No watch list, or anything else. Collection is the only list I need. In most cases, anyway. Unless it’s something that just doesn’t support Trakt.

Well, I’ve logged in and out of all of them. And I do have a real app killer, so I know nothing else is running.

Oh!! I see it now. I’ll try removing all apps. Stremio won’t delete… It just keeps coming back, and I uninstalled that months ago. I’m not a fan.

Well, Stremio and like 4 others cannot be removed.

It’s not even installed on either of my Shields. I just tried it for a little while, and wasn’t impressed. So, it’s gone from my device.

All of these are the ones that I can’t delete, except for Viva. It’s fine. That one isn’t a problem anyway. This was happening way before that, though. There’s even an obsolete one called Dream TV, and I can’t revoke that either.

I think you can’t delete them right now because of the current server issue. Please, try again when things are back to normal.

Ok, thanks. It is acting rather erratic, right now. But that may just solve the problem. Thanks. We shall see. Oh, and no Kodi at all.
