Suggested Features for the Tiled Interface.

I was wondering what might be a useful features to have in the tiled interface.

What I have thought of was!

1) A running list of Finished reading tile
2) Ability to Pin individual Shelves to Tiles, Such as Author shelves, Or Series Shelves.
3) User selectable Tiles that we can turn on or off
4) Ability to dismiss tiles such as the Sync so that we don't sync unintentionally
5) A tile to settings perhaps?

The list can go on, so what would you like to see the New Tiled interface have or not have! Be creative and who knows maybe we could see some of these suggestions implemented.

regards

Jack

All are very good ideas. Now to get Kobo to listen to us and add these features. I would especially love to be able to pin Series Shelves.

You are such a dreamer

Only tile I like is the currently reading one. The rest are pretty useless for me. They seem to come and go in a random manner and often are hard to decipher.

Only thing I would like that might actually make me like the home page is user pin-able tiles. For example: long press on a shelf, book, menu/setting item and have the option to pin to the start screen.

Not sure what you mean by this one. Do you mean a tile like the library update with the covers of the last few finished books?

Other than that, I can agree with that wish list. I'll add having the full book menu when long-pressing on a tile.

Something like that yes.
