šŸ“¢ Public Feedback Board and Roadmap

Please add a changelog.

I meant a changelog for the roadmap itself. To show when a feature is added or moved to a different category.

Is there any more on this? I’ve left feedback for a few of the features listed but there’s still no way to tell if others find those features good, bad or indifferent. Still trying to decide whether it’s worthwhile getting VIP for an other year in the hopes the features I like are implemented, or just go free until if and when they are

I’ll tell the truth, I only voted on 2 items available… and 1 is in post production.

What I am most interested in is MULTIPLE PROFILES… just so you know.

I like the idea of that too, but wonder how useful it’d be. As VIP would each profile get the full benefits? As free, would each get the same amount of lists (taking in any extras earned) and items in collection/Watchlist or would the benefits be shared. Eg. If profile one has 60 out of 100 items in Watchlist would that mean profile two only gets 40? If a free account has earned 5 lists, would each profile get 5?

Truthfully, I do not care to much about the lists. I created and deleted so many over the years and do not really use them. :sweat_smile:

I like the idea of multiple profiles with access to the scrobbler. A lot of the streaming services does not provide access to actual Watch History outside of continue watching. Having something to easily help keep track of what the kids are watching would be nice.

But I also noticed while reading posts for a while is that multiple people in other households each had VIP accounts… And paying for each account. Doesn’t make sense to me when they are part of same household and so many other services out there allows multiple profiles.

My daughter has her own account as she watches weird stuff and I don’t want it hogging up my progress and history lol. Hers is just a free account, though, but it would make things so much easier having it all under one roof, so to speak, for when setting everything up on all the different devices. Multiple profiles would be great for that. My husband could even have one for tracking all the stuff he watches on History, Discovery, etc (mind you he doesn’t care if he’s already seen half the stuff or not, he’ll watch anyway lol!).

I don’t understand. The roadmap should be your internal planning. That’s the whole point of the transparency in sharing it.

We are currently still getting feedback for all of the public features and new ideas. In the meantime, we’ve added two sections to the Anticipated tab to distinguish what is under consideration (because it’s rather important or critical in terms of votes) and nice-to-have (because it gets voted but with low interest/impact by voters). But there is currently no way to give you the level of information you are looking for.

I disagree with this perspective. A roadmap should not be confused with an internal planning. A roadmap shows direction; it is a guide more than a rigid timeline of fixed and detailed actions. We need to be able to change course if we are made aware of something new and/or critical.
While we have an internal planning, it is not shared publicly because we want to be able to make changes without deceiving users that would be otherwise waiting for something at a specific date or before or after this or that.

But some of the things in nice to have had more people leaving feedback than in other sections, so with not showing at least the votes up or down for them we’ve no way to tell if there’s a chance it gets bumped or if we are wasting our time hoping. It feels like we are being given a never ending carrot to follow, just to make it look like Trakt’s adding more features when they’ll likely never appear :pensive_face:. It still feels like we are being deceived, which you say you don’t want to do

A roadmap is the direction and guide of your internal planning. This roadmap is showing no direction. It’s just a list of features in arbitrary categories.

And I said nothing about rigidity. It can be a timeline that can change.

Agreed, there are definitely ways to present a ā€œroadmapā€ that reflects internal planning while also communicating that it’s not set in stone and things can change as circumstances require it.

Ask a game developer like Altfuture for advice if you need to.

It has been three months since this Roadmap launched and it looks exactly the same. It’s still not integrated with your Trakt account.

Almost like it exists to please people who are on the forums complaining about the price change but still hidden away enough that they don’t have to actually commit to it. I’ve been voting and submitting ideas yet still feel ignored

Unfortunately, you are ignored, just like every user and VIP that has expressed any concerns or ideas here. Current ownership has chosen to ignore every complaint and hope it fades away so that they find enough new suckers for the current ridiculous price scheme.

Welcome to the new Trakt!

It has been 2 months, not 3, since the roadmap has been announced. It looks the same because the direction (what it shows) didn’t change in 2 months.

What did change though:

  • We tweaked some sections based on feedback,
  • We added a link to the roadmap on the website,
  • The roadmap is accessible via roadmap.trakt.tv,
  • We get new feedback and votes there every day,
  • Feedback and votes are filtered, sorted, grouped,… to build the next things better.
  • Some features have been moved to ā€œReleasedā€/ā€œPreviewā€ and some moved from ā€œIn Productionā€ to ā€œPost Productionā€ and will soon move to ā€œReleasedā€

If you are looking for what we’ve been cooking: :package: Trakt Product Roundup – July 2025

Still something we are looking to achieve. There’s currently a level of friction to give feedback there that I’m not happy with. But we’ve been prioritizing some of the things you can see in the ā€œPreviewā€ (Android TV, New Search Engine, Plex Sync, Improvement to the Recommendation engine → see :package: Trakt Product Roundup – July 2025), ā€œPost Productionā€ and ā€œIn Productionā€ section of the roadmap.

You are not ignored. We just can’t reply to everyone submitting feedback, and we can’t build everyone’s idea in 2 months.

You are not ignored. We heard you. Not going the way you want with the business does not mean we are ignoring your feedback; it is taken into account, just not the way you want it to.

Touche. My apologies.

Again, it is not showing this in a helpful and transparent way. It’s a list of features in arbitrary categories. There is nothing regarding your internal planning by your own admission.

Communicated where?

How can this be true? More days have passed since it launched than the amount of feedback and votes. The Feature Requests section of this forum is more active.

What features? When? This is why I requested an changelog for the roadmap.

The last time you commented in this thread was on June 23. Radio silence on the roadmap or anything else since then.

Can we have a link to the roadmap accessible via the main site? Or the very least, make it easy to find on the forums? I have to come to this specific thread to find the link unless I want to bookmark it, it’s very difficult for new users to even know it exists
