[Suggestion] Add ability to *hide* seen items, not just change colors

[numericOverflow]

There are some times it's nice to completely ignore anything that has been seen already. Especially if there are MANY duplicate variants of the same item that I really don't want.

Can you add a button or switch to completely hide the items already marked as seen? That would make it much easier on your eyes when scrolling through long results.

Thoughts:

• I'd say the enable/disable button should live on the main pages, and not only in the settings tab, because I can see myself flipping it on/off quickly depending on the particular search.
• For paginated results, you could encounter pages where all have been seen already, so maybe show a banner telling user full page was seen and then automatically continue onto the next result page (without user needing to click next).
• Perhaps, if you want to get fancy, make the auto-advance-empty-pages a user controlled setting in the AVE setting tab?

Hey, thanks for the Feedback.

We will consider to add these Features.

Do I understand this correctly as follows I am at page 1 and go to page 2, on page 2 I have already seen all products, so the script switches directly to page 3?

I think there are 2 ways to do it:

1. The method you described above.

• Automatically skipping pages that are empty by advancing to first available page with unseen items.
• I was guessing this would be a bit harder to implement
• You'd need to watch your Amazon call rate so you don't quickly burn through a large number of pages too fast with the "auto-skip unseen items" and tip them off that there's automation being used.
• This would, in my opinion be the superior implementation from a user's perspective. (no need to click through empty pages)

2. The "unsophisticated" method (my original thought)

• If all items on a page have been hidden, just show a banner saying "All items on page have been seen"
• It requires the user to click through empty pages, which could become annoying, despite it being a massive visual benefit of hiding seen items.
• This 2nd method is workable, but probably not preferred unless Method 1 is too hard or time consuming to implement.

Here's a quick mock-up of Method 2:
