Personally I miss some features that were essential for me in the V2 of trakt. Here are the ones listed for me and I hope that the devs are taking a look at it:
Total watchtime
The overall watchtime on the profile is an essential feature and I think that is what trakt is made for.
Actors / Guest Stars
Actors of films and series should be sorted by main cast and guest stars again
The number of episodes in which an actor has appeared should be displayed on the series tab
on an actors profile should appear in how many episodes he appeared, not how many episodes the series had
Watchlist / Lists
See how many movies/series are in a list
The ability to see at a glance whether films/series are included in lists, not only watchlist
Contine Watching
Sorting function in Contine Watching
Iām missing the percent information in Contine Watching
that you can see not only the missing episodes and watch time, but also the number of episodes and watchtime youāve already watched
The progress bar shows the exact seasons you have already watched (e.g. if you havenāt watched the first season, but the following ones, it shows this in the progress bar
Details
Show us STATS! How many watchers and plays an movie / series / episode has.
I think that are all the features I recognize right now missing in V3, that were in V2.
There is one feature I would like to add.
Calendar
upcoming movies from film collections (e.g. if a new part of a already watched film releases it should show in the calendar as well. I think right now you need to add them on your watchlist first.)
Thank you and hopefully I will see some of the features in the future.
I really really really want the guest actors for each episode back. I used that so often to find an actor name and to ultimately discover other shows and/or movies that Iād be interested in watching. Iād like to know who decides to remove these extremely useful features. Itās mind boggling to me.
the guest actors feature is available in the iOS version at least, they just donāt separate them from the main actors. on v3 web they show the guest actors only on the series page not on each episode unfortunately
I thought the mess that is V3 was supposed to be about unifying the platforms, making it easier for Trakt to add features. And yet here we are, pushed the beta as is with incomplete features like this. Missing on Android, mixed on iOS and only on the series page on desktop.
Iām also missing the actor breakdown. I know who the main actors are for a show Iām watching. Iām interested in the guest actors for an episode most of the time and what I know them from. That was a common journey for me on the app after (or sometimes during) and episode.
Now I have to leave the app and go to another website to get the information which Iām sure isnāt the intent of the product team!
The simplification of the UI has trimmed made information gathering a lot more difficult.
I also liked having an easy way to view the seasons and episodes of a show but now just have the side scrolling list and tougher navigation.
im sure android will get it soon since iOS has it. v3 web only has it on the series page not per episode so im sure thats another minor oversight as well.
it groups all the actors together instead of splitting them like it did in v2 between regulars and guest stars
Also upvoted. I check guest actors quite often if I recognize them. It would be a shame if I have to open a different service to find where I know them from.
Monthly calendar view is the only feature that I was using, yet it seems to be missing in this awful v3. Heartbroken to see something so half-baked is being forced onto users.
A missing feature I had been using in V2 thatās now missing:
TMDB Episode Groups (aka alternate order)
I had been using this to watch X-Men: The Animated Series in production order, and now there is no option for it, the old url redirects to the main page in the default order. I do not see a way to do this in V3.
so missing itemsā¦.how about the calendar view? It went from being able to view entire month in simple ways to weekly small icons, I miss the old calendar view and would want that back tyvm
