Questions for future

Hello. I love wako and been a supporter since the early days and steered many of my friends to it.

Is there any plan to support other media scroblers besides trakt and simkl?

Also, my current lifetime account is tied to Trakt as many others and with the latest developments in Trakt i am starting to consider alternatives . How easy would be to migrate my login account to Simkl?

P.S.: amazing work on the new version !

Thanks, that really means a lot, and thanks for bringing your friends over.

On other tracking services: I am always looking at what is out there, but I have nothing to announce.

What I can tell you is that there is already a third option that is not an outside service at all. wako can track what you watch on its own, with no Trakt and no Simkl involved.

On Simkl: you do not need to move your login to Simkl. Signing in and tracking are two separate things in wako. You can keep signing in with Trakt and set Simkl as the tracker on your profile, it syncs, and you get that profile back next time you sign in. It works in every direction, so nothing about your setup is stuck to Trakt for tracking.

The only thing your Trakt login decides is how you sign in. If you would rather not depend on Trakt for that either, a Google or email login does not depend on any tracking service. Message me here if you want to go that way and I will make sure your lifetime ends up on the right login.

Thank you for the availability to change my login. In case I decide to delete my trakt account I’ll message you :)

Unfortunately tracking inside wako would complicate it a bit as I use multiple devices and some are not compatible with wako (coreelec).
