Can SIMKL add an import app for some other websites or app?

Sometimes you’ve found a great tracking service that isn’t yet supported by Simkl’s automated importers. If that service lets you export your watch history (in CSV, JSON, or another format), Simkl’s team can help build a custom importer so you can seamlessly migrate your data.

Simkl supports direct imports from popular sites via built‑in apps, but new services appear every day. Whether you’re moving from a niche tracker or a proprietary system, you don’t have to manually re‑enter hundreds of entries.

By sharing your export file, Simkl’s developers can create a importer that reads your data format and maps it into Simkl’s watchlists, preserving your viewing history with minimal effort.

Import your history from any CSV file to SimklSimkl

If the service you are coming from has the option to export your watch history, we can try to build an importer. DM us on Discord with the sample of the export file that you would like to import.

Why It Matters

• Time Savings: No need to manually re‑enter hundreds of watched episodes or movies.

• Data Accuracy: Automates field matching to reduce mistakes in dates or episode numbering.

• Unified Tracking: Consolidates all your viewing history under one roof—Simkl—making progress tracking, recommendations, and statistics more comprehensive.

Tips for a Smooth Import

• Clean Your Export File: Remove any empty rows or malformed entries before sharing.

• Consistent Date Format: Use ISO 8601 (YYYY‑MM‑DD) for easiest parsing.

• Stay in Touch on Discord: Prompt feedback accelerates the importer’s development and testing.
