Touch "Mark completed" ?

CWPitcher · 09-03-2011, 08:28 PM

What purpose does the "mark completed" function in the library serve? I have sync'd and do not notice a difference afterwards. Is this a future feature?

I searched around for an answer but had no luck. Thanks in advance.

serves no purpose. or if it does, it doesn't work.

If the book you have marked as finished was on the Home screen it will be removed, otherwise, nothing seems to happen.

Agree. There's no way of knowing if a book's been read. You can't even access that flag.

It's certainly not for the reading stats. You have to manually flip through to the end of a book to mark it as read for it to show up in reading stats.

It is useful to remove a book from the home Screen that you were just browsing or resetting the bookmark back to the beginning.

I marked all my books as read and the homescreen always puts them back on to maintain it's little collage thing.
