I still wish this is also is an option on the website. It’s still take some extra steps to mark multiple episodes as watched. Especially with shows with more than 50 episodes in a season.
You have to mark multiple episodes as watched.
The app now has a function when you mark an episode as watched that it asks if you want to mark the previous episodes as watched too like the iOS app also has now:
No, because I haven’t seen the whole season. It would be nice that if you mark episode 5x23 as watched in a season that has 46 episodes that you can mark the previous 22 episodes also as watched as the same time. Just like the new feature as the IOS app
As long as this is an option to do as sometimes on the platform I watch things on some episodes are not listed straight away so watch things out of order.
So I might watch episodes 1 ,2, 3, 5, 7, 9
This would leave me with 4, 6, 8 that need watching as and when available to me and I would not want these marked as watched just because I had already watched ep 9.
I don’t think that adding this option would change the existing behavior.
It would just be added as another option when long pressing an episode. If there are unwatched episodes in the past, it gives another button to mark all previous episodes as watched.
I think this would be a huge upgrade. I have some shows I watch that are literally only 5 minute episodes. If I don’t mark them daily, I might end up having to mark 40+ episodes one by one just for that one show.
@nigeljordanw1 At least you have that option as an Apple owner. I just had to mark 127 episodes one by one since marking previous as watched is not an option on the Android app, or desktop site.
This really feels like it should be a core feature across all platforms. :\
