Feature suggestion: Enable browser history

Post by macula »

It would be great if the Bookends browser somehow retained a history of recently viewed pages for random access. I often need to revisit a page and find myself having to repeat my search from scratch.

Thanks.

That exists for current searches -- click and hold on the forward or back button and a list of all recently visited pages is shown, and you can select from it. Also, note that the bookmarks list is editable, and you can add bookmarks to commonly used sites.

Good to know that—I now recall reading that in the manual, I think. But the feature could be conceivably extended so that the history would be "persistent" across sessions/app restarts/system reboots etc. Though I am sure you have a full plate at the moment, and I don't mean to imply that this is a must-have feature or anything. It would just be handy.
