Weâre excited to share that we now have an official Public Feedback Board and Roadmap
This is a new space where you can explore what weâre working on, vote on ideas that matter most to you, and suggest new features.
For a while, many of you have been using the forumâs Feature Requests to share ideas (thank you ). While thatâs been great, it was getting a bit tricky for us to keep track of everything and understand whatâs most important to the community. This new Public Roadmap will help us manage this better and make the whole process more transparent
How does it work?
Stay updated as we make progress
Browse features and ideas weâre considering or working on
Vote for the ones youâd love to see happen
Submit new ideas if you donât see what youâre looking for
Important notes:
The content and structure of this Public Roadmap will continue to evolve as we make progress and as you share your ideas.
Your votes and suggestions provide incredibly valuable insights. While not every idea can be built (we still need to prioritize), your input helps us understand what matters most to the community.
The Public Roadmap only shows a portion of what we are currently working on or planning. If your idea isnât visible there, it doesnât necessarily mean we arenât thinking about it, considering it, or already making progress behind the scenes.
Past feature requests are not lost! Weâll gradually migrate relevant ideas into this Public Roadmap so everything lives in one place.
For the moment, youâll have to leave your email address when posting. We are working on enabling you to interact with your Trakt account directly.
How does one actually give feedback on these roadmap features? I donât see anywhere on the roadmap site to leave feedback on it.
What is actually meant by post production, pre production and rumoured? Itâs an official roadmap, why would there be rumours? Are pre and post production âfunâ terms for a time frame? If so then could we actually know what time frames theyâre supposed to represent?
How about listening to public feedback on this forum and not censoring it? That would be a good place to start.
There are a few hundred comments here that you might want to look at first. Just putting the link here because you might not be able to find it. Itâs mysteriously disappeared from the front page
Click on one of the cards, scroll to the bottom to where you can select how important the feature is to you and then you get the option to write a comment.
hmn. I donât like that feature requests are being removed from here and all hidden and no visible community interaction.
Not a fan, why not bring back UserVoice? Or I donât know, a trello or noora. At least there users can vote/leave comments. You could even make it VIP only to comment (thatâs what Storygraph has for example)
Likely pricing. UserVoice went enterprise-y and decided their platform commands $900/month or more, depending on how many unique users give feedback. I donât blame Trakt for dumping them.
Or maybe that price hike is what gave Trakt the idea for this last monthâs bombshell?
Yes, I agree. Right now you only see a count of how many people have rated an item - no indication of what the spread of ratings were. It would surely also be helpful to see otherâs comments, as this can stimulate ideas.
Lastly it would be good to have the link to the roadmap as prominent as possible to encourage as many people to participate as possible.
Thanks a lot for all the feedback, here and on the board !
Some answers based on message here:
If you have issues (eg: with scrobblers) please share them with us via support. Bugs can be fixed and are not handled the same as Feature Requests.
Feature Requests are feature requests, we have a lot of them and canât act on all of them.
Iâve seen some feedback about things that are not features per se. There has been many discussion about this, letâs try to not transform every discussion into a Business discussion.
We wanted to have the categories based on Movies/Shows creation processâŚ
â Rumored has been changed to Anticipated for clarity.
â The Released tab is split between: preview (things we are beta testing, out but still getting feedback before we roll-out), now in theaters (fresh roll-out, think last couple of months), now streaming (has been released some months ago and should now be known by everybody).
The Public Roadmap doesnât have dates and will probably never have. It is different from our internal planning. If you want a feature faster than an other, you can vote and set the importance to the highest.
We have looked at other tools, this one fits our current product mindset. The portal is not as open or as polished as UserVoice,⌠but itâs only one aspect of the whole tool. Prioritization will get better with this one.
If you want to give public feedback and âbrainstormâ with the community on a feature, you can still share it on the forum and discuss. But keep in mind that the whole conversation may not appear in our product backlog. Iâm working on it but weâll probably just have new ideas and votes count, not comments. Also, it wonât be a 2 way sync.
What people find important or not and why is used internally only (to compute a user score that will be a part of a bigger âfeature scoreâ), it isnât shared. From previous experiences, I can say that, usually, this makes feedback easier for some users.
When we start working on or if we release something you voted for, you will be notified.
We are working on integrating the public roadmap and board into the website (both Trakt and Lite) to encourage more people to share feedback. This will also make using your Trakt account (via SSO) possible to reduce that email sharing friction.
Iâll look into it. With more votes & feedback, weâll probably be able to split the anticipated tab in sections like ânextâ, âlaterâ and ânice to haveâ.
this is like the 4th or 5th place for feature requests we had now itâs easily the worst and most closed off one (100% moderated and only private feedback).
it can suffice alright for you guys to share a roadmap but I donât see this usable for user suggestions at all.
i prefer the private feedback. I donât need people commenting on my ideas or feedback, thatâs what the forums are for. I can leave a more honest review of the roadmap features without worrying what some other user thinks about my opinions.
Uh, why would the ability or inability of others to comment on stuff affect your ability to leave honest reviews? Moreover, why do you care what others think?
i dont care what others think, but i dont need people commenting on my ideas like you just did. if im giving feedback about a feature i dont need it to be public. the point of the feedback section is not to devolve into banter that gets off topic like so often happens in forums
But you just said that itâd prevent you from writing honest reviews and youâd be worrying what other users think, ergo you would care. Youâre contradicting yourself.
But oh well, I was just curious. You seem quite sensitive so Iâll leave you to your own devices.
its not that iâm sensitive, and thatâs not a bad thing in and of itself. think about reviews youâve ready or heard about a movie or book only to be let down because the reviewers tastes are different than yours. it changes your expectations or gives you biases or opinions that may not have been there had you not seen someone elseâs thoughts. private feedback helps prevent otherâs opinions from influencing incoming feedback; it helps prevent an echo chamber. if trakt staff wanted that, theyâd leave the feedback to the forums and reddit.
). While thatâs been great, it was getting a bit tricky for us to keep track of everything and understand whatâs most important to the community. This new Public Roadmap will help us manage this better and make the whole process more transparent
