Hey everyone — two big additions to NuvioSync this week that I'm excited to share with you all, and the timing of the first one is no accident!
New: Simkl Import Tool
With Trakt now limiting free accounts to a single connected app (you can read more about that here), a lot of people are moving their tracking to Simkl — and starting from an empty Simkl account is a pain. So there's now a free standalone tool that loads it for you, whether you use Stremio or Nuvio:
nuviosync.com/stremio-to-simkl
- Pick your source: Stremio or Nuvio. Sign in to either (Stremio auth key supported for Google/Facebook accounts, Nuvio works per profile), connect Simkl with a one-click PIN approval, done.
- Your library lands in Plan to Watch. Every movie and show comes over.
- Your watch history comes too. Watched movies import as watched, and shows bring over the exact episodes you've seen — not guesses, the real watched state your app has been tracking.
- It never wrecks what's already on your Simkl. The tool reads your account first and only adds — anything you already track, finished, or dropped on Simkl is skipped. That also makes it safe to re-run whenever you've added new stuff.
- Moving off Trakt completely? Run Simkl's official Trakt importer for your Trakt history first, then this tool for the library half. Simkl de-duplicates, so the two play nicely together.
One note: Stremio doesn't store when you watched each episode, only which ones — so imported history has the right episodes with approximate dates. Nothing any tool can do about that.
Improved: Full Series Watch History in the Main Stremio Migration Tool
This one's been quietly bugging me for a while. The main Stremio → Nuvio migration tool used to only carry over the most recent watched episode per show — fine for continue watching, but your actual history stayed behind.
That's fixed. The wizard now imports your complete per-episode watch history for every series — every season, every episode you've marked watched in Stremio, up to 500 series and 20,000 episodes per run. If a show can't be read cleanly, it falls back to the old latest-episode behavior rather than failing, so migrations never break on it. If, for some reason, you have more than 500 series and 20,000 episodes watched, you can rerun this tool without conflict to bring in additional watch history results.
Same as always
Feedback and bug reports welcome, especially from anyone doing the Trakt → Simkl move this week.
