Contact Sequel Media Tracker Support

by FAnonymousF

This is a really good app that I use to track everything that I watch, play, read, and listen to. I chose it specifically despite the other competitor apps because it did not have a “watch date” on my shows, as I sometimes forget and have to add it later. I had gone through probably a few dozen apps before I was able to settle on sequel. Simple, attractive ui, really great app. Until it updated. And now it has obligatory, non editable watch dates. Now, this is only minorly annoying, but it’s enough that I’m tempted to find a new tracking app, or to even create my own. All I ask, dear developer, is that you give us a setting (in free mode, please) to completely turn off the watch date interface. I don’t want to know *when* I watched these movies, because my memory isn’t that great, so most of the dates are wrong. It gives me so much unnecessary stress and anxiety, when it was the main feature that I had downloaded this app for. I suppose it’s the truth of “one man’s trash” and all that, but the simple lack of watch dates was my treasure. I hope you take this to heart, and I hope to see a new setting soon. One day, when I can afford it, if this app is still everything it was when I first found it, I will be buying the paid version. I just want to see some changes first. One change. Let me turn off watch dates.

I am liking this product. Its database is extensive and it finds just about everything I’m looking for. There are occasional weird gaps, which I’m thinking are more due to the data services being used vs programmatic issues. I’m using this to track shows I’ve watched and books in my physical library so my use case may be a bit different than most. But so far its’ anime db is very good so it might become my replacement for my anime list website.

There are a bunch of things I’d like to see implemented, especially if I’m going to pay for the service.
* more options for sorting
* ways to remove categories I don’t plan to use (audiobooks being one)
* for shows and movies, ways to add other statuses like you have with books
* for books, ways to indicate a book is both in your library and is read
* book format (electronic vs physical, hardback/softback/etc)
* non-media lists for weird cases like beer tracking (this could be completely manual if need be)
* autocollapse collections
* manual sequencing of collection items (especially true for like the marvel series, where release date is not necessarily the same as watch order)

But I’m slowly starting to move my stuff into the app, so more likely than not I’ll end up buying the service. It’s only $20/year which is a very fair price in my opinion.

The app is fantastic. I can add things really easily and seeing art with the movies and books is wonderful and better than what I was previously doing, which was using a todo list. I really wish we can see when we completed an item - you can sort by completion date but can’t see it? That’s a huge miss and makes it much harder to figure out how many books I’ve read this year or when I saw a movie with a friend. Please add this and perhaps add a timeline/diary view with all the content included! Also, I wish you can add some notes when adding something to the backlog or wishlist. I want to be able to note why it’s added or who recommended.
