Awesome app btw. Loved it! This is objectively the best open-source booru app that i've found on github (after hours of searching, installing, and uninstalling app). I'd like to ask if the following feature could possibly be implemented within the app.

1. Favorite/Bookmark - Allow us to bookmark images on the booru so that we have the option to get back to these images later without downloading it. I have no clue how fetching on android app works and if the API of these websites allow for fetching multiple images at once (assuming this works by saving the url in the device), tho i assume this could be done by adding the option to link booru accounts (and use their favorite feature)

and...

2. Strict/Loose Options for Safe Mode - Strict option would not fetch the image (the current safe mode of the app). Loose option would fetch but blur the image preview (kinda like how reddit blurs the nsfw) and opening it would prompt a warning. Not essential but i think it would be awesome to implement it in the app.

Given the nature of this app, some results of certain servers and of certain types of picture are not exactly legal in some countries, so keeping them in the cache is not exactly safe for the user, even if we don't download them. Also my device main storage position is my sd card (on my android devjce i can choose internal or external storage, idk others) so it would be easy to get these images from my sd, even if deleted by the app. It is common knowledge that files, when deleted, are just tagged as "rewritable" so the data stays there until it gets overwritten. So, can you add a way to do so please?

after starting a search through the results of the first search (a tag of a single post of the first search), i would like to come back to the post where the second search started. If i was not clear enough just ask me questions.

Going to add more to this list in the future...

Just a note: the latest release (1.0.3) still has the same versionCode as the one before (1001). As that's what Android uses to tell versions apart, it won't show up as update for users. So please make sure to always increase that as well :wink: Thanks!

i granted storage permission to the app despite it didn't ask for it but the feature still doesn't work Android 8, miui 8 Huawei p8 lite 2017

I use Gboard which supports an incognito mode in apps that request it, it will not learn new words so they are not added to the learned word list and autocomple. Reason being you don't want booru searches being stored and suggested outside the app in the keyboard.

The download section was a whole lot better after the recent update, tho there are some things that i'd love to see be improved (sorry, but i really love using this app so i thought i had to suggest inputs):

1. When grouped by servers, the servers should be collapsable (useful for cases where there's too many images that have been downloaded). Clicking the server name on download would toggle the collapse state of that particular section. Also, i think it's be better to have them at hidden state on default when the number of downloaded files exceeds a set number, with a badge indicating how many images were downloaded for that server when on hiddena state.

2. Downloaded images could use a filter option to filter downloaded images by available tags (user can select which tag/s to include), also with multiple tags selected, an option whether to use "or" and "and" for them.

3. Downloaded images should not be ~~viewable by~~ present in any gallery app (or at least have the option to make it viewable or hidden on other image/video viewer app, tho it is preferred to be hidden).

4. Use a check mark icon instead of the downloaded string as an indicator that the image has been downloaded. Similarly, the "downloading" string indicating the file is currently being downloaded could use an animated icon as well. Could also just make the string a less saturated color than the one used for the file name (i.e. gray)

However, there are also some things i think are bugs on that section, such as:

1. Deleting the downloaded image from the file manager does not update the downloads list section of the app. Clicking on the image instead gives an unknown error, or "File might be corrupted" error when opened via gallery app.

Suggested fixes:

1. Deleted images will be indicated on the downloads section with a red "x" or "i" icon. An option to "redownload removed files" and "remove deleted files from list" could be added.

2. App will not show deleted files on the download page.

P.S. Thanks for the recent update, loved them!

As far as i know Flickr is *booru based aswell, not fitting into anime, but since booru is open source, there are so much of them, maybe one should be able to add their own services. (A lot of work, I know, but im just getting into dart, sorry)

I noticed that new "batches" (based on the preload number setted by the user) of results are loaded once i arrive at the end of the first "batch" or near it. I would like the app to really preload 100 results ahead of my current scrolling. I tested it. set 3 columns on safebooru. scroll 40 results, then stop and take in mind the 40th picture (results), wait 20 seconds or more, then do a very fast scrolling until the load icon appears, then start counting the entries from bottom to above until u see the said 40th picture. i counted 60 picture until the 40th ( i set the preload to 100). So i am sure it doesn't really pre load in the way i intend so if you can implement it...

The space dedicated to links is too much. I would like the links to be compact (nearer) OR something to contain them like this:

Personally the only link that might be useful is the source link since sometime i want to track the artist from the source. the other links that come from the actual server (safebooru etc..) can be contained in there. If you have questions, ask

Bug description

Sometimes the timeline would get replaced by pending search that has been replaced by a new search.

Steps to reproduce

1. Search for something
2. while loading, search again for something else
3. If the network is not fast enough (e.g. caused by smaller result on second search), the first search will be displayed on the timeline instead of the second search result.

App version

No response

Solution

Easiest but temporary solution:

• having a timestamp for checking mechanism before updating timeline state.

Long-term solution:

• rearchitect timeline state to be more local than using state container like riverpod

Functionality

Issue

When I want to combine the tags, I need to manual typing and it was terrible.

Feature

The tag saver, Saving tags for later and combine the tags together.

1. Type the tag
2. Press + button
3. and boom! it's saved for later.
4. Press arrow button for paste to search bar and start combine.

It should be in search section.

Motivation

So (lazy) people no need to type the tags over and over again. And can combine the tags so they no need to type their 255 characters tags again.

Additional context

Will add Later.

UI improvement

Issue

Adding support for a high refresh rate screens and dedicated option in settings to disable the 60hz lock would be much appreciated

Feature

As more and more models (even not flagship ones) are starting to have high refresh rates this issue definitely should be taken into consideration...

Motivation

Because I have a phone with high refresh rate

Improve

• sort Artists, Characters, Copyright, Metadata and etc. out of normal tags (or change color text different Ex. Character tags - green text) edited: I see it's only including in some sites only. (not sort in gelbooru)
• add 'All' in Favorites page to show all fav media in one page

Suggestions

• add option to backup settings (including server saved)
• add 'Saved Tags' to show fav tags (for fast search when you want to search your fav tags)
• add 'meta tags' in searching such as score, id, rating
• add 'Saved Pages' for following pages (when you want to roll back to previous search with one-click Ex. search tag1 tag2 tag3 sort:score with one-click)
• show 'score' in details media page

"viewing single pictures" is basically this: https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/75091899/207098378-6f0335de-c1e0-447a-8ddc-009ce17fd3fd.mp4

"preload range" is pictures on left and right. So i would like an option in the settings to let users decide the preload range when we are in this 'mode'. this is different since it preloads highter quality pictures.
