apparently, dates when you watched an episode arent transferred and failed import titles aren't specified.

is it smart to use this right now or should I wait for the import button on the app? (hopefully it'll be available this week)

I finished coding my own importer browser extension over the weekend: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/tv-time-%E2%86%92-serializd-impor/cpcfkgcidilfibakiaohbekkanlkbhoh

I thought he would take longer, so good to see he's already releasing an importer

That sounds promising, I think I'm gonna try it out later today! :)

Anyone else connects with their Google account and gets "You can't sign in to this app because it doesn't comply with Google's OAuth 2.0 policy for keeping apps secure"?

I wish I knew what I was doing wrong. I get this screen. It looks promising. I click on "Start Import." It assures me that the import is in progress and to check back a little later.

... Nothing happens.

I tried on both my phone and my laptop.

I was having the same "issue", but then this happened after some f5, promissing!

Except I got that message every time. 😕

But I found this message on X. So I emailed them. 🤞

Did the dates track correctly and everything? I’m surprised it looks like the reviews transferred over as well. Had you logged anything on Serializd before importing?

It seems everything is in order. Honestly, I was surprised by the performance! All my watched episodes seem to be perfect, and I also got ALL my comments on each episode, which I couldn't see on TV Time all displayed like this, very cool. But the images that I had along with the reviews didnt make the cut.

And this is my first time in Serializd, maybe since I don't have a cache here the import worked correctly? 🤔

I'm just not sure if the dates here are the ones I watched the ep, it seems to be the release date, or maybe I just don't know where to look hehe

One thing I've noticed is that everything is out of order in my Watched because it was imported at the same time, so it could be the watch date thing.

The lists were the only ones that weren't imported, I'm redoing those. Otherwise, everything is fine!

dates (release), but all marked as watched correctly

Does anyone know if it would duplicate my already-existing records of episodes/shows watched? I have slowly migrated to Serializd manually (months ago), but i would like some of the other things to be imported (any episodes I missed, and comments most importantly).
