January 5th, 2026
December was short but intense at Trakt!
Short, because the team wrapped up the year with a well-deserved holiday break to recharge. Intense, because everything converged toward one big finale: Your Trakt Year in Review.
The Year in Review landed just in time to close out 2025, bringing a cinematic recap of how you watched, what you loved, and what defined your year on Trakt.
It highlights:
Your first and last plays of the year
The movies and shows you spent the most time with
Your habits, streaks, genres and favorites
Shareable snapshots of your movies and TV shows
It’s become a yearly tradition for many of you, and shipping it again this year took a focused end-of-year push across product, design and engineering.
