Return to search results
It would be lovely if in all search formats we could return to results.
When searching in the browser if I use the search bar at the top of the site - select category - select result - return to previous page - my results are still there to select something else.
In the browser it does not hold my search results if I navigate to lists and search in th search bar that generates there.
In app - search via magnifying glass in upper right corner - select category - select result - return to landing page for searching and have to conduct search again. So far Iâve found it only returns to results in app if I go to the âbrowse all lists/questsâ
This would be very nice to make searching more efficient. When Iâm trying to look at all lists containing a keyword to see if one exists, itâs very frustrating to have to repeat the search process and to scroll through results to find my place every time. This would be convenient for all searches. Trying to remember a book, but donât quite have the title right. A fellow pagebounder but youâre not exactly sure of their precise username. To be able to return to the list that was already compiled in the search would definitely increase efficiency and minimize queries.

We just released 32 new color variants of our current avatars, focusing on increasing the skintone range of our human-like avatars. Some of the more popular avatars, like the ghost, dragon, and alien, have more colors also :) We'll be coming out with more colors and brand new avatars soon!

Carry Over Books in "Plan"
I would love to be able to more easily carry a book forward from one month to the next. For example, maybe I planned to read a book in February but didn't end up getting to it. I'd like to be able to then easily add it to a future month's plan. Right now I have to toggle to "past plans," then toggle to "future plans" and remember which books to add. It gets unwieldy if there are multiple books.
Thank you for considering!

Hi everyone, we've just released a big app update with many quality of life improvements, bug fixes, and some new features. These are all available on web as well. Please make sure your apps are updated to the latest version, 1.1.1, to see these changes! As a reminder, you can check out what we're working on and what's coming up next via the public roadmap (in the footer on web, in the more menu on the app)
Here's a list of updates:
- New Main Quest badge tiers, now viewable on the app
- ability to pin comments to your own posts, lists, and activity
- improved search on app: UI enhancements to make searching for things that are not books easier, removed the auto-populated most searched books from the search widget
- ability to track your progress in Time for audiobooks (HH:MM)
- progress bar / breakdown by status added to Plan
- estimated page count added to book page
- you can enlarge a book cover on the book screen by tapping the book cover
- rereading button (when you go to track a reread, the button says re-reading instead of reading)
- sort reviews by star rating
- filter options on Book Journey
- new search, filter, and sort options on Browse All Lists and Browse All Quests screens
- see more info about your followers and users you follow in the following/followers modals
- changed the button on the home feed "currently reading" books from "post in forum" to "go to forum" for easier access to the forum + encouraging folks to check existing posts!
We're working on monthly wrapups, reading streaks, and some prep for more stats next! We will also be making some additional enhancements to Quests (like: a book recommendations section similar to the Community Recs on book pages, stats for how many users earned each badge tier, and a feed tab like the new feed tab on book pages)
Thanks everyone and happy reading, Jennifer + Lucy

Weekly/Monthly Reading Reports
Would love to see a weekly or monthly stats report that we could share! Like the 2025 recap we got. I like posting those types of things on my Instagram story, so being able to save it as a graphic or something would be great

Look at Forum option from the Main Page
From your home page, you can immediately add a post to a forum, but going into the forums to search for posts and see if somebody else has already posted something similar has a longer path (click on the book > go to the forum section > then search your percentage / key words). I feel like this can contribute to duplicate posts on big forums, as people might not remember to check the forums before hitting the post in forum button. Would a button / option to directly open the forum page of a book from your home page be a viable option? Alternatively, would it be viable to transform the post in forum button into a "look at forum" button, and then have the post option there?
