Simkl or Letterboxd?

I'm using Simkl currently, and I've never used Letterboxd. I know Letterboxd is more popular, but what does Letterboxd do better than Simkl?

How to view how many times I have rewatched a movie?

Hi all

Imported my Trakt history, how do I see how many times and the dates I rewatched a movie?

Thank you

Edit: I see it is a paid feature, is my data already in Simkl and will it appear when I subscribe? Don't fancy manually adding each episode rewatched.

​Hello Team,

​I am reaching out because I see great potential in your platform; however, the current experience on both the website and the app lacks fluidity.

In the age of AI, accessing content should be much more intuitive. Here are a few suggestions to make the tool truly essential:

-​Streamlined Interface: The current architecture is unnecessarily complex. A leaner structure with a maximum of 5 or 6 tabs (including Settings for language translation) would greatly improve navigation

-​Optimized List Management: Adding content should be simplified—for instance, through a smart 'copy-paste' system capable of instantly scanning and importing a list of titles into our account

-​Interactivity & Search: Making every title clickable to allow adding them to 'Watched' or 'To Watch' lists in just two clicks, supported by a centralized search bar

-​Notification System: Integrating alerts for new releases (episodes, movies, or manga chapters) directly linked to our personal lists

​The current design could benefit from a modern update to provide a more pleasant environment. The tool needs to be redesigned from an end-user perspective to become truly practical for daily use

The platform is currently underperforming. Given your current user base, you should have a strong community on Telegram or Reddit by now.

Be transparent about your costs and ask for micro-donations for the servers. If you need more help, reach out to the developers in your community who would be more than happy to contribute

​You should also diversify your funding: donations, cheap subscriptions, and a few non-intrusive ads that don't ruin the UX. Offer a low-cost tier that acts as a way for users to genuinely support the project's growth

I’m currently looking for a website to track all my shows. So far I’ve tried Serialized, but I didn’t like the UI or how clunky it feels. I also tried Trakt, and it felt even worse, especially with no half star ratings.

When I tried SIMKL, though, I really liked it. The UI is clean, and the show pages display a lot of useful information. I especially like the way it handles logging episodes. For example, when you mark season 3 as watched, it asks if you want to mark all previous seasons as watched too, but it doesn’t do that for Specials, which is perfect for me. I also love the percentage tracker on the side.

The only reason I’m not using SIMKL is the lack of seasonal ratings. That’s a big deal for me. I can’t believe more people don’t mind it. For example, with Invincible, the earlier seasons are arguably higher quality, and I want my tracking app to reflect that.

I saw a post from a year ago asking for this feature, but it still hasn’t been implemented. That makes me think it’s harder to add than it seems, which is unfortunate.

I’d also prefer a toggle to disable the Anime and Movies tabs in the top bar for people who only want to track TV series.

I'd like to change to Simkl from Trakt, but watchlists don't work at all in Kodi. Any chance of getting that feature to work in Kodi?
Thanks
