Thanks for the comments. On the f...Hello Shelley. Thanks for the comments. <BR/><BR/>On the first comment - unfortunately - there isn't much we can do. The original version didn't even save the sources - so they are gone forever. That's why we added the All, so at least they would be listed. Sorry for the inconvenience.<BR/><BR/>We tried to make it launch the mobile Amazon. For some reason, when you first launch Safari from outside, the Amazon redirect does not happen. We have put in a ticket with Amazon asking them how to directly link to their iPhone version of the website (its actually more hocus-pocus than you would think). Hopefully, we can correct this in the near future. I dislike it as much as you :)<BR/><BR/>The last comment - this has been the topic of an internal debate here. If you notice, when you click on the arrow to read the reviews of a book, we actually leave you inside the app. You don't leave at all. The reason the "View on Amazon" feature doesn't do this is that we figured people might want the control of the full browser in this case. Your idea is not a bad one though. Perhaps we could just "remember" where you where and bring you back there when you reopen. Ideally, we would like to be able to keep you inside Next Read, however, as that is clearly the most convenient.<BR/><BR/>Keep up the feedback!mostmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03091131093446684589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8114550664943555402.post-56582376834866520142008-12-23T12:33:00.000-05:002008-12-23T12:33:00.000-05:00I just wanted to say thanks for the recent update,...I just wanted to say thanks for the recent update, which has the capacity to sort by Source. My review on iTunes specifically asked for this enhancement, and I was very happy to see it added to the app so quickly. However: it does not work retroactively, which is disappointing. I had already added about 30 books to the book list, and when I sorted by source immediately after installing the update, the only sort category available was "All." I then entered a couple more books to see what would happen, the sort function now includes the sources that I assigned to these books, but still ignores anything added to the list prior to the update.<BR/><BR/>It would be great if you could apply another fix to make this work retroactively.<BR/><BR/>A couple more requests: rather than take the user to the regular Amazon.com site, could you take us to the Amazon mobile site? <BR/><BR/>And -- this may not be possible, but it doesn't hurt to ask: when a user clicks through to Amazon to read about a book, there is no fast way back to NextRead. It would be great to have an enhancement that allows the user to go back to NextRead at precisely the spot they were at when they clicked through to Amazon.'<BR/><BR/>Kudos on this excellent app -- I hope you get lots of uptake.<BR/><BR/>Shelley MartinDug McVhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12995285268478934575noreply@blogger.com
