Spoilers setting should also hide episode thumbnails

Trakt Questions & Help

Hi,

I noticed a spoiler-related issue with episode thumbnails.

I have Show Spoilers disabled in my settings because I do not want to see spoiler images before watching an episode. However, some episode thumbnails are still visible in places where they can easily spoil important scenes.

For example:

  • In Continue Watching, the next episode to watch can display the episode thumbnail.

  • On a season page, the episode list shows thumbnails next to each episode.

This is risky because even a single image can reveal a character, location, death, twist, or important moment before the episode has been watched.

In my opinion, when Show Spoilers is disabled, Trakt should hide or blur these episode thumbnails, at least for unwatched episodes. It could show the show poster, a generic placeholder, or a blurred image instead.

The spoiler setting already exists, so I think it should apply consistently to episode images too, not only to text or episode details.

Thanks!

Hi,
Thanks for reporting that issue! It’s been reported to the team and they are working on a fix!

since you’re VIP and can still get to the v2 site, there’s an option in the settings to hide spoilers like that

i know this option is missing in v3 and really needs to be added.

it also seems the v3 site doesn’t follow that setting but the ios app does. see the screens below

i don’t have android so i can’t test that but it may be the same as the web since it’s a little behind ios

Question on this. So I noticed hiding spoilers hides the episode name. I don’t see how episode name is an issue. Is that something that exists on v2 that can be changed, or a bug/issue to be addressed?

it was a setting in v2 but v3 doesn’t follow it

Thanks. Would be nice to get all the v2 functionality back.

yeah the settings page needs some love in general. it seems to be pulling the settings page from the old version, like a webpage in a webpage, as a temporary option
