When is the app going to be ready? I'm desperate to keep up with my reading progress by using my mobile app.

I would find it very useful to have a way of seeing a feed of recent comments, or recent comments in the feed. My feed moves pretty fast, and I often miss conversations because I miss the original post. It would help my connectivity to see where conversations were occurring.

Thanks.

I'd like to see the yearly reading challenges expanded on. I'd like to be able to set my own goals for whatever time period I choose and set goals for number of pages read.

It would also be fun to have an achievements system and then we could get badges on our profiles for various achievements completed.

I would like to see a "Timeline" that works differently than what we have right now. Right now the Timeline feature is useless to me because the Dashboard does essentially the same thing. But here is my vision of how Timeline could work:

It would show me a list organized by date, of all of the posts I have made. It would not show anything else. I know that right now I hate scrolling through my entire blog page to find a post that I made ages ago that might not have tags for easy finding. But if I could click on Timeline and think "I made that about 6 months ago", scroll down to six months ago and there is all my posts from that time period. I envision that it would look similar to the Timeline currently, but only show my stuff.

I also see this being sortable. Like for example if I want to see everything from March 2013, I should be able to search March 2013 and see my timeline of posts from that month.

This could also be made a feature on every blog, Petra made this suggestion. That I can click timeline from another user's blog and see a dated list of all of their posts too.

I'm also wondering what the timeline is for the app deliverable. Quite a few of us spend a majority of our Booklikes time on a tablet.

"Thirding" Petra's and Written Among the Stars timeline usability requests.

I'd like to second that, but strongly request that it be done in something other than pink, preferably something gentle on the eyes.

@Brunette Bibliophile: Thank you for this suggestion. Each member can choose his/her fav genres taht are reviewed on his/her blog in Settings/Blog (categories). Then blogs are presented on Explore page in accordance to chosen genres.

You can also write your bio and about me page where you can add more info about yourself by using Pages option (Settings/Pages) where you can add new page to your BL blog with a text, links, images... The new page will be added to your menu next to Blog, Shelf and Timeline in your public view
