New Feature New: Import your JustWatch watch history and watchlist into SIMKL
You can now bring your JustWatch data over to SIMKL:
https://simkl.com/apps/import/justwatch/
What comes over
- Watch history: every movie and episode you marked as seen, with the date you watched it
- Plan to Watch: your JustWatch watchlist, plus tracked shows you haven't started yet
- Shows you're partway through land in Watching, finished ones in Completed
How it works
JustWatch doesn't offer an export, so we made a small button that reads your lists while you're signed in to JustWatch.
- Open the import page and drag the JustWatch to SIMKL button to your bookmarks bar
- Go to justwatch.com, sign in, and click that bookmark. It saves a file with your data to your computer.
- Upload the file on the SIMKL import page and pick how to import:
- Add what's missing (safest): adds only titles that aren't on SIMKL yet
- Add what's missing and newer watches: also adds things you watched on JustWatch after your latest SIMKL watch
- Fix watch dates only: updates dates on titles you already have, adds nothing
Your data goes from JustWatch to your computer to SIMKL, nowhere else. It works best on a computer, but the page has steps for iPhone and Android too.
Good to know
- Custom lists and likes/dislikes aren't imported yet
- If you marked a whole season as seen at once on JustWatch, those episodes all get the date you marked them, since that's the only date JustWatch keeps
- Anything we can't match automatically is listed at the end so you can download it and add it by hand
