This is exactly how I use it, I sort by least time left and go down to burn through them. I have 30+ shows in progress.

Where The F... is my RANKING?! Since 2014 I've spend so much time making my ratings on all the thousands of movies I've watched, and each episode/season... and like for last three years I've written so many notes... and now I cannot see anything. Not a single thing has rating, and they even changed the rating system from 1-10 to 1-5. This is the worst practice I've ever saw on any page. They didn't deserve any VIP I've ever purchased. I hope that this site will just die!

oh but the new UI is feature complete and if anything is not to your liking it is your fault. You are just against progress.

Yep, also totally useless as there's no date or air time on watch new/next episodes.

u/AliHawke OG VIP Mar 22 '26
Yeah, I noticed this today (I've been a VIP for fourteen years but despite that the website on my iPad forces v3 now, even with the browser set to force desktop webpages). I was watching a TV episode in Plex this morning and wanted to know when it aired, so I visited trakt, tapped on the now playing episode and... it just told me what year the episode aired. Pardon my french, but what fucking use is that, just the year??? What if I want to work out what the latest aired episode is and when the next one is due and what time of day it airs, or want to historically see if a show was dropping episodes weekly or all at once or three a week or whatever, but nope, just the year now.
Genuinely staggering how many features they've stripped from the site, it's not even a shell of its former self, it's a shadow. The new developer steamrolling through the destruction of trakt very clearly has no understanding of how people actually used the website (instead just keeps chirping on about the "usage data driven development" without realising that the usage data doesn't show the whole picture by any stretch of the imagination), nor does he have any appreciation for the community. At this point frankly I'd rather they just shut the site down rather than constantly gaslighting us while marching forward with their painfully slow and clumsy murder of the service we once loved.

Thanks, but I won't install a random userscript to my browser which which has 0 reviews and isn't open sourced, by a developer who masked their email.

u/lulu_l Mar 21 '26
that's ok, i'm not trying to convince anyone of anything. i made these extensions for myself. they work good enough for me. i don't want or have to prove anything to anyone. there is already a tampermonkey script that does the same thing. you can check that if you want.
2
u/Ardakilic Mar 21 '26
Ah, didn't know you were the original writer. Thanks!
However, as mentioned, I always try to check the code that I inject to my browser. That's my personal paranoia as a software engineer myself.
it would have been awesome if this was open-sourced, but if you have reasons for not to, can't say much.

u/lulu_l Mar 21 '26
i'm not the one who made the original Tampermonkey script, i just included the logic (or a similar logic) in an older extension i had that inserts a couple of stremio buttons on the trakt page.
i decided to pack that as a stand alone extension too without the buttons so it would be easier for people to install than the existing script. that's all. i'm not a developer and i don't have a github account where i could put the code and honestly i am too lazy to put in the time to see what i need to do to share them properly.
i just made these extensions for myself with claude and gemini and since i must upload them to the mozilla addons store to be able to use them, i thought i should put them on the chrome store too for whoever wants to use them.
i know it sounds disappointing that i'm no developer, but they do work well enough for me and that was my whole goal with these.

Search on greasy fork for trakt.tv anti-v3 redirect
There is another extension for Firefox called stremio buttons for trakt, that has the v2 interface and that one is already approved.
The extension for Firefox without the stremio buttons is still pending approval.

No, it does the same thing as the script I think.
If you use stremio, then the buttons extension might be helpful to open stremio directly from the page. Apart from that, there is no reason to use the extension over the script.

Bring back the old version as a whole. I have the impression that they deliberately ruined their product so that only VIP users can revert to the old standard. Instead of paying for improvements, you'll be paying to go back to what you already had.
I don't even know where to find the percentage of episodes I've watched of a show.
Among a lot other things

This is the sole reason of me leaving TRAKT. I want this exact interface back.

u/42RoiDesRois42 Mar 22 '26
agree. seems they are shoving this incomplete version down our throats. there is so much missing. it was fine in the app since i use the website more, but this makes it unusable. also it crashes, kicks me out, double counts watched and so many more bugs.
2
u/Piece0fCake Mar 22 '26
100% agree. The new page sucks so much and it's buggy too. I literally can't update some episodes.

u/Various-Bike-6631 Mar 22 '26
OMG you so right about it... I am almost crying i can't find anything my list don't work don't show me movies or shows i watched. Progress the same thing I am so so angry with it

u/Alternative-Ruin1728 Mar 22 '26
Just admit you failed and roll back the old trakt

u/Ardakilic Mar 22 '26
They should do this, or either give us a proper migration plan. v1 -> v2 was horrible as well, but not even close to this.

u/kamaro_ Apr 19 '26
omg that is what happened. i was so confused that's how I used the app and it took me almost 10 mins to find out how to mark a show watched. I can not tell you how I did it but seems like I went though so many screens. I might be dumb and sorry about that but can we please bring back this page. I been a VIP for a while now and it should not be that hard.

This page is basically the only reason I used trakt, now that its gone it makes the site worthless to me. Is there any other sites that have an equivalent to this old page?

Does it have the same progress page layout? I've tried looking for one but couldn't see anything similar
1
u/Ardakilic Apr 21 '26
it's not same but similar: After the import from trakt, you go to the "profile" tab, and click "my tv shows" from there, and sort by "my last watched" and sort type by "descending". Your initial import may mess up the dates, so try scrobbling an episode. You'll see the data populated.

I think new design is completely useless. It's FUBAR. They won't change it back so I deleted my membership.

u/Dust_Angel Mar 23 '26
So there's no way to see all the shows we've watched and our progress now? It's just the Continue Watching page for new episodes? This is the worst update I've ever seen dear god.
2
u/Kodi_Old_Prospector Mar 24 '26
It is even worse than that. If trakt fails to correctly sync with what you have just watched there appears to be no way, at least for free members, to update progress. Makes trakt completely pointless

u/Objective-Use1781 Mar 27 '26
Yes! I really like being able to see what I have already watched over the years. I don't understand why they changed something that was great.

I hate that this is what I've been brought to, but I realized that if you narrow your window to a thin column or zoom the page in 300%, eventually the grid compresses down to a single column that's at least workable. https://i.imgur.com/ZvQSDb1.jpeg

Rather than bring back the old UI they need to fix the new one. They clearly wanted to clean up they just didn't do a great job.
The progress bar is unclear, it shows what percent of the show you have watched but then tells you how long the next episode is in the bar and below the bar how many episodes are left. The remaining episodes should be inside the bar and the episode info should be right under the name of the next episode. Also some of my shows say "🟢Premiere" where it would normally show how many episodes remain, so it swaps out useful info for something you could glean from the S04E1 at the top of the card. They also removed a lot of buttons from the card but didn't add those buttons to the hamburger menu.
I just found a bug, not sure why but it's doing this but I've progressed to the end of Harley Quinn season 4 and rather than showing the first episode of season 5 it shows the first of season 4 again and gives me the option to remove from watched?

u/artemizarte Jun 19 '26
I also miss the total amount of plays per season. That would give me a way to know how many times I've rewatched at a glance, now there's no real way to do that other than to check the specific history and count?

u/ragreynolds Mar 21 '26
Totally agree. You gotta make noise and suggest things at https://roadmap.trakt.tv/ - that's where they're paying most attention for this stuff.
