[Feature Requests] A couple actually. #44

Open InToTheEnd opened 4 years ago

InToTheEnd commented 4 years ago

Hi! I just installed this app yesterday and I'm really enjoying the experience. The account system and the way articles are saved with all media and links intact are very enjoyable unique features and I like the way articles are laid out in the listing view. I know it's still early on and that there are more features to come but there are a few I'd like to suggest that I feel would enhance the app's already awesome experience. If these are already on your to-do list then that's great!, but if not please consider adding these features in the future!.

These are all I can think of, besides the last request, most are minor because the usage experience is already pretty great already. Thank you for your hard work and I hope my post doesn't come off as being too picky. I really do love using this app as it is.

Hello, very glad you are enjoying Readrops !

About the features you are suggesting :

Font size adjustment or text reflow when reading individual articles.

It is possible, but not in the next releases though.

A Favourites option for articles and a panel collecting all favourited articles under or above the "To Read Later" section.

Why not, I need to think about read later category relevance. Would it be better to replace it by favourites ?

The filter option including folder select in the Articles section so all articles from different sources but under one folder can be viewed together.

Definitely feasible.

A setting for automatic reload intervals with time specification.

Planned for 1.2. I'm working on it !

Being able to refresh each feed individually.

Only possible with a local account. Doable with a filter on a specific feed.

Database backup and restore function for local accounts.

Why not !

Thank you for the response! Doesn't matter how long the features will be in development, I'll eagerly expect them even though I'm enjoying the app alot as it is!.

Why not, I need to think about read later category relevance. Would it be better to replace it by favourites ?

I think replacing the Read Later category with Favourites makes more sense. That might be personal bias as I haven't found much use for it though.

Planned for 1.2. I'm working on it!

Great to hear!

Only possible with a local account. Doable with a filter on a specific feed.

I only use a local account but haven't seen how to do this yet!. I'll tinker a bit more with the app and figure it out.

Sorry, I should have been more precise. You can't currently, but it is easy to implement.

Is it possible to sync one particular RSS feed? when dragging down in any part of the app, that seems to sync all subscribed feeds.

Currently not possible.
