Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
When someone starts using ShowCase, they usually already have a large backlog of movies/series they've watched in the past but don't remember well enough to search for and add one by one. Going through the existing "add to library" flow (open item → detail page → tap save → pick category) for dozens or hundreds of titles is slow and becomes a barrier to actually starting to use the app for tracking.
Describe the solution you'd like
A simple Tinder-style swipe screen for fast bulk-adding:
- Before starting, let the user pick up to 3 categories they mostly watch (e.g. from the existing genre list) and choose Movies or TV Shows, to narrow the deck to relevant titles.
- Show one poster card at a time from a TMDB-backed paged feed (reusing the existing
ShowPagingSource/Pager already used in the discover screen).
- Swipe right (or tap a button) to add the title straight to the local library as "Watched" (reusing the existing
addMovieToDatabase-style insert, skipping the category dialog for speed).
- Swipe left (or tap a button) to discard and move to the next card, no DB write.
- No new dependencies or DB schema needed — this would sit on top of existing paging/insert code.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Keeping the current one-by-one detail-page flow, but that's exactly the friction this request is trying to reduce for new users migrating a watch history from elsewhere (e.g. TV Time, which shut down and took users' cloud-stored libraries with it).
Additional context
I'd like to contribute this myself via a PR if the idea is welcome — happy to scope it down further based on feedback before starting implementation.
