Bookmarking: Filtering with search bar when bookmarking (in case of many folders)
# Motivation
I want to request a search option when adding a bookmark, if that is easier to develop. I already have 200+ bookmark folders in my Al-Quran App. So whenever I want to add a verse to a bookmark folder, I have to scroll through all the bookmark folders to find the one I am looking for.
# Objectives
Make it easier to search for a bookmark folder when adding a verse to a bookmark.
# Proposed Implementation
In the Library tab, there is a search bookmark option. Would it be possible to use a similar implementation to add the same search option in "Add Boookmark"?
# Drawbacks
The search option could slow the add Bookmark process depending on how many bookmarks someone already created.
# Detailed Use Case (shared 2 years ago)
I have a request to add some extra features to organize the bookmarks. I usually use the bookmarks in the Al-Quran app as labels. For example, All the verses that describe the afterlife are bookmarked by the label “Akhirah”, so that when I want to remind myself about the afterlife, I can go to the bookmark and read all the verses related to it. Currently, I finished only 2 Juzz and I marked around 80+ bookmarks. Hence, it becomes difficult to search for bookmarks and sometimes I have multiple bookmarks with similar tags. Could you please provide a search and serial number options with the bookmarks? Particularly, when bookmarking a new verse, going through previous bookmarks is much more time-consuming.
To solve the bookmark search, I rename all the bookmarks on my Quran app and included a bookmark number (sorted from 1- #of bookmarks) with every bookmark name. Then I export the bookmark to my pc and open it with Excel. Now I can search Excel, get the bookmark number, and scroll in the Quran app to find the bookmark name. For example, if I need to find "charity", I search the Excel and get 53 as a bookmark number for "charity". Then I scroll through bookmarks on the Quran app to and locate "53 Charity". JazakAllah Khair, for your patience. I hope, you understand what I try to explain. However, I think only the search option is enough. Placing a bookmark number is to make it more user-friendly. May Allah give all of the team members the best rewards in this life and the hereafter.
