[Feature request] Enhancing User Experience: Retaining Game Search Progress in App Restart #400

Open BlazeVertex opened 1 year ago

BlazeVertex commented 1 year ago

The idea: Is there a feature or setting in the app that allows me to seamlessly pick up where I left off in my game search? Currently, whenever I restart the launcher, I find myself starting from the first row again, regardless of my previous progress. It would greatly enhance the user experience if the app could remember my position in the game list and automatically resume from where i left. Each time I stop and restart the application, I need to begin from the top row.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. The problem is that whenever I restart the app launcher, I have to start my game search from the first row, even if I had previously made progress. This inconsistency causes frustration and disrupts the user experience. Describe the solution you'd like I would like the app to have a feature or setting that remembers my position in the game list. When I stop and restart the application, it should automatically resume from where I left off. This would greatly improve the user experience and eliminate the need to manually scroll back to the desired point in the list.

Describe alternatives you've considered One alternative solution could be implementing a manual bookmark or save feature, allowing users to mark their position in the game list and return to it later. However, an automatic and seamless continuation upon restarting the app would be a more user-friendly and efficient solution.

Additional context No additional context or screenshots are currently available for this feature request.

Navigating to the specific row may not be possible right now, it's a lot harder than it sounds, but I'll look into it more as the next release comes up.

However there is going to be a new option that saves your search options, selected playlist and selected game for each Search page and restores them on launch with the next release. Linked to issue.
