V3 Missing Essential Features

setting something as the cover image also seems pointless now that the entire image is covered up by the UI

You also used to be able to sort by time on the progress page, now it’s just number of episodes remaining. Would love to see that feature come back.

Since you’ve removed most “at a glance” features, can you at least add the number of comments to the episode Reviews tab so I know if it’s even worth clicking it?

Is the ability to add/remove individual TV show seasons and episodes gone? I haven’t been able to find it. Would love for this to return.
Would also like to be able to manually add stuff to my library/collection again.

adding seasons and episodes to lists is gone for now but it might be on the roadmap to return.

same thing with the library, can’t add to it natively. you need to use their other first party apps (watcht or rippple) or media centers like plex/kodi etc

Thanks for the info.
I’m using the webhook for scrobbling my library (as well as watched content), but when V3 rolled out for VIP, scrobbling stopped working for my library. Odd to me that it’s still working for logging my watches.

Additionally, I tried the Plex Sync feature and that just seemed like a mess. I have a friend that shares his media with me via Plex and all of his content was being pulled into my Trakt Library with Plex Sync enabled, which is not what I want. Maybe I set something up wrong and I should take a look at trying again.

Anyway, thanks again for the info!

Any idea where I can find the “manually refresh this series” button on V3 please?

It is a VIP-only feature which I paid for. As a non-VIP, I used to have to wait and hope for a daily refresh of the data (normally from themoviedb.org or thetvdb.com, which didn’t always happen 100%.

I find it valuable to submit a request [edit: to clarify, “immediately add to the refresh queue” not “ask a human”] for a refresh as soon as I’ve added to data on those two feeder sites.

I would like to continue to be able to do it.

in the apps it’s in the three dot menu on a series or movie page. on the website it’s in the three dot menu then under the report function.

@otakunet21 thanks, I only use the website. All I can see is “Report” then a droplist to “select a reason” and “data refresh” is one of the reasons. That is the non-VIP method I used before I was a VIP, to ask for someone to refresh manually. Everyone always had that feature.

I’m asking about something different: the VIP-only feature to schedule a refresh without submitting a request for someone to accept or reject. on the V2 website it was called something like “data refresh” completely separate from the “report” feature. When pressed it says “thanks! The data will be refreshed shortly”.

you should see data refresh in the report list. they moved it in here. it may not trigger a refresh, i’m not sure, but support would refresh it if that’s the case

I’ve edited my post to make it clearer. That’s the old all-users feature, nothing has been moved there.

I’m asking about the different, VIP-only, feature which doesn’t asked for reasons, it’s just a one-press “do it” with NO human intervention. From what I see, it is completely missing.

yes i remember the option on a page to refresh the data.

then the option the option isn’t on the website yet but is in the app. i can’t confirm if this is vip only or not

Right. This is what I see on the website.

If it’s on the app, then that’s one step closer to it being on the website too (he said clinging to a crumb of hope). Thanks for the info.

It’s definitely VIP. On the V2 website it says “become a VIP to manually refresh!” when you’re not a VIP.

if you download the app you can check if it’s there if you’re not vip anymore. the apps are far better than the website but the website has its usefulness

(I hate using apps, they would only be for when I was out of the house really. I don’t want to see things on a tiny screen, I value greatly a fully-featured website which takes up the whole of my PC’s screen.)

I am still a VIP, I have the latest version of the Android app, but on a series the only options in the 3-dot menu are “watch again, view history, remove from history, manage lists, set as cover image”. Is yours from the iPhone version maybe?

yeah mines from iphone so it could be that it’s only on iphone for now

ok thanks. I’ll file as “on the list” and keep all my fingers crossed then :slight_smile:

V3 is missing:

- my home page with week calendar,

- the non messy design UI that we get lost and cant find the useful information.

-we cant find the inline option that was on to-do list before V3

-the achivs and badges that were on to-do list before V3

- the improved design of our profile ( changes of the squares we had on our profile that was on to-do list before V3

-pilot episodes on “all shows” in calendar.

-all lists that a specific item is in

-our progress in line page we had for shows.

first, i’m not an employee of trakt. i can only assume why the changes to lists were made but there are very good arguments for why they should come back

@vveider I think it was not “motivation to remove”, just lack of a motivation to keep.

Ie V3 did not start with all the V2 features we all love and rely on. It started with nothing, zero, and they have added some features to that nothing, and not (we hope this is really "not YET") finished building all the other missing features from V2.
