New layout / rewatches

Short description of the issue

  • The new layout is so bad in so many ways. Can’t mark a whole season as rewatched.

Detailed description with additional context about the workflow

  • The new layout is awful, in both the web version and Android app. Not intuitive at all. I cannot find anything, it feels like half the features are gone completely. Is there a way to turn it back?

  • So uncomfortable that I cannot open a whole season on a new page, to see all the episodes at once with their descriptions.

  • Cannot view all the specific actors in a certain episode anymore. It was one of my favourite features to go to a specific episode to find a guest actor, and see what else I’ve seen them in. Now that feature is completely useless.

  • Where is the option to add a whole season that I’ve already seen as watched again? The only option it gives me is to remove it. Can only mark it rewatched episode by episode. So frustrating.

  • There is probably more issues with the new layout, but I can’t think of them because I feel like I can’t even see half the things I used to before.

  • I’ve really loved your website and have used it for a long time. Now I dread opening it to log my shows. I really hope you will make it better again.

On a computer or mobile browser you can visit https://trakt.tv/dashboard to access the so-called “V2” interface, at least until the new “V3” layout is considered finished. We do not have a firm commitment from staff as to how long (or if) the old UI will remain available.

You may be able to uninstall the Android app and install an older .apk file. Look for one with a version number less than 3.0. I’m not sure if linking to or naming APK sites is allowable by forum rules, but the most recent version I know of that still uses the old design is v2.2.1. (Remember to disable automatic updates for the Trakt app in Google Play Store if you install an older copy!)
