Hi, Yes I do indeed read the forum from time to time. To be honest, though, you will more reliably get a response if you use the 'feedback' button in the app.

I understand why you would want this, but it is quite a significant code change (it would mean that the sync file uploaded to OneDrive must include *every change* that has been made to bookmarks since the app was installed, and the 'sync' operation would have to merge the change files from all available devices ... and it could still lose updates, if one device was temporarily disconnected from the internet, or if the system time was wrong on one device). It's on the TO DO list, but it's not going to get done soon, because it is a big piece of work, with a high probability of introducing nasty bugs.

Not trivial, because long press already does something different (it's the gesture reserved for bringing up the reading controls and menu). But if 'drag highlights multiple words' is what you want, then you can, on the controls settings page, set 'swipe action = select' and on the reading screen use the top left menu button to select 'action on selected text = highlight'. That will give you the behaviour you want (though it will mean that you need to tap the page edge to change page, because you've now customised the drag action to do something else).
By all means email me at
