Introducing Dropped and Completed TV shows, a big performance boost for the To Watch and more.

# Dropped and Completed TV Shows

The To Watch now automatically filters out:
1. Completed Shows — those are "ended" or "canceled" shows that you watched completely with no new episodes to come.
2. Dropped Shows — a dropped show is a show that you started watching but haven't watched again for at least 6 months. Rippple also checks the next episode you have to watch before deciding if it's dropped. If the next episode to watch is a season premiere, Rippple won't consider it dropped because it assumes you are just waiting for the new season to be available.
3. Hidden Shows — shows you've "hidden from progress" from Rippple, another app or Trakt.

The lists of Completed and Dropped shows are built along the way when you are using Rippple. For instance, this means a show that changes from Canceled to Renewed will be reconsidered by Rippple and will be removed from your Completed shows.

# Performance Boost for the To Watch

Filtering out Completed, Dropped and Hidden shows makes the To Watch lighter to refresh. But that's not all. The whole To Watch engine has been rebuilt from the ground up.

It's fast! Like... really fast.

A faster To Watch means changes from other devices or even other Trakt enabled apps are picked up really quickly by Rippple.

- Fix a bug that made the Pinned show disappear for a sec when refreshing the To Watch
- Fix the Watchlist indicator in lists and search not updating correctly
- Fix a flickering effect with quick actions in Media view
- Fix a crash happening only in the background when he app receives a push

*New*
- Your Recommendation List and every related actions have been renamed to be aligned with Trakt. Both the wording in the UI and the Trakt API calls have been updated to use "Favorites".
- The filtering and sorting menu have been merged for Custom Lists.  
- The filtering and sorting menu are now available for Standard Lists too. Yes, this means you can now sort your Watchlist the way you want to.
- I also finally added a prompt to ask users to rate the app. The idea is to never annoy anyone... really. You will see the first prompt the first time after 2 month of activity (an activity meaning an interaction with Trakt — a rating, a check in, a comment,…), then after 4 months, then 8 months later, then every year.

*Fixes*
- Swipe actions for a movie in history that was already in Favorites was considered as a tv show somehow.
- The app now uses the slug instead of the Trakt identifier for sharing to avoid lookup issues when sharing movies or tv shows.

- Support for reading Notes in Watchlist, Recommendations and Custom lists, including Collaboration lists. Look for the little note icon on a list item and tap it to read a note.
- Support for writing Notes in Watchlist, Recommendations and Custom lists, including Collaboration lists (trakt VIP only). Swipe from left to right on a list item to add a note.
- Support for "Link" list and improved shared List links.
- Added an option to display hidden shows and movies partially in Calendar and reviewed wording for Calendar configuration.
- Added an empty state for To Watch related Widgets.
- Fixed a crash in search due to a tmdb type that wasn't foreseen. Like if you searched for "Ice Road" it was crashing.

Thanks a lot to all for reporting issues and sharing ideas to improve Rippple!

This is a quick update with small bug fixes and improvements.

- Improved Widget search to show the release year and country
- Add support for more deeplinks (based on tmdb identifiers)
- Fix Calendar view “now” date not updating correctly
- Fix a crash happening in the background
- Fix alternate icon setting on iPad

In version 5.5 we introduced a new Calendar view, a new in-app Notification Center, a new way to browse through your History and more Notifications and Widgets.

CALENDAR
- Added a Calendar view that displays the past ~30 days and future ~30 days with movie and episode you should have an interest in.
- Configurable options for the Calendar include filtering based on your shows taking the "To Watch" configuration into account (or not), optionally adding trending and anticipated shows and movies.
- The floating button allows you to quickly scroll to "today" or close to it.
- Hidden shows and movies on Trakt or in-app are taken into account and not displayed on the Calendar.
- Swipe actions and other common actions work the same way as in the other parts of the app.
- The Calendar is part of the main navigation on iPad and Mac and can be added to the main navigation on iPhone via a long press or via the appearance menu.
- The title of the calendar updates based on scrolling.
- You can tap the Calendar tab bar item (bottom) to scroll to the next day and tap the status bar (top) to scroll to the previous day.

- You can also clear notifications one by one if needed.
- Notifications will live in the in-app Notification Center for 2 month, way more than on the "real" Notification Center.

Fixes a crash that could happen when opening an episode
Fixes widgets not working on some devices: older devices didn't like the image size used for the widget, this has been fixed resulting in a small performance improvement for widgets in general

You can now configure where you want to see episode titles. Want to see them on your To Watch, you can. Want to see them on the episode detail view, you can even if you didn't watch the episode yet. Want to see them on the episode list, you can.

If you're afraid of spoilers like me, you can also keep them hidden and tap the redacted episode title in the episode detail view to show it temporarily.

In this version, there's also an improvement of the "next episode to watch" fetching logic for Widgets displaying a show that you didn't start yet.
