Seerr v3.3.0: Smarter Blocklists, Translated Notifications, and More Powerful Webhooks

Seerr v3.3.0: The First Big Feature Wave Since the Merger

Seerr, the unified successor to Jellyseerr and Overseerr, has shipped v3.3.0 (with the v3.2.0 notes folded in). This is the first major batch of new features since the post-merger freeze ended, and it covers blocklists, notifications, and a stack of quality-of-life improvements for anyone managing media requests on Jellyfin, Plex, or Emby.

Smarter Blocklists

The blocklist got a serious upgrade:

• Region and language filters: tailor your blocklist to filter content based on specific regions or languages
• Collection blocklisting: block entire collections of media items at once, so you can filter out whole franchises or series with a single action

This gives admins much finer control over what users can see and request.

Translated Notifications (Server-Side i18n)

A long-awaited feature has landed: server-side internationalization for all notification agents. Notifications now translate automatically at send-time based on each recipient language, with dedicated locale settings for Discord, Slack, Gotify, and ntfy. There is even a Discord toggle to match the requesting user language.

Seerr also added full UI language support for Estonian, Luxembourgish, and Vietnamese.

More Powerful Webhooks and Notifications

• Webhooks now support custom headers and include imdbid in the payload
• ntfy users get rich Markdown formatting and custom priority settings
• Discord notifications can target multiple user or role IDs in the User IDs field

These changes make it much easier to wire Seerr into custom automations and self-hosted notification stacks.

Quality-of-Life Improvements

• Toggle the monitorNewItems option for Sonarr directly in the service settings
• Set an unlimited time for quota resets, enabling a global per-user request limit
• Sort the user list by name, email, role, request count, and more
• Filter the trending page to show only movies or only TV shows, by daily or weekly lists
• IMDb and TMDB links added directly to person detail pages
• The "BETA software" banner has been removed from the About page; Seerr is officially out of beta

How to Upgrade

Docker

services:
  seerr:
    image: ghcr.io/seerr-team/seerr:latest
    volumes:
      - ./seerr-config:/app/config
    ports:
      - 5055:5055
    restart: unless-stopped

docker compose pull && docker compose up -d

If you are still running Jellyseerr or Overseerr, migration to Seerr is automatic on first boot when you point the volume at your existing config directory. Back up your config before upgrading.

JellyWatch Integration

JellyWatch already integrates with Jellyseerr for media requests, and the connection continues to work with Seerr since the API remains compatible. Watch Pass users can browse, request, and track media status directly from the JellyWatch user interface, and the new server-side translated notifications mean your users get request updates in their own language.
