Yes, when opening Moon+ from CC it does remember it's position. It just would be nice if CC would remember the last screen it had opened before the program is shut down, such as if the last thing I looked up were book details, it would have an option to remember to open up in the same book details, and if it had some sort of grouping applied before I accessed the book details, it would keep the same grouping once I back out of it. (I tend to stay with the same grouping for a while, but I have a large library and a lot of different groupings, so it is a bit annoying to always have find it).
Kind of like a web browser remembers which pages were opened and their history next time I start it even though I can stop it from running in the background.

I never really used widgets before... I guess it helpful to returning to a previously opened book (pity my books don't really have pretty covers). But that wouldn't solve the grouping part. Particularly, right now if I happen to leave a grouping on before I exit CC, and then restart it it says "no books match the search" so I need to first clear the null value and then reapply the grouping again to have it display properly. So it almost works, it just doesn't quite remember what it was supposed to search for.

I would also need to find a book again in CC if I want to look up some particulars that are in the book details but not in the book itself, or after I finish reading it to mark it as read, which is easy enough to do, but still takes some navigation. If it either remembered the screen it had before (or if it was possible to launch CC book details screen as well as a reading app from the widget) it would simplify the process.
