Some more community features would be interesting, like being able to reply to reviews/start a discussion or make a simple post

When you go to a book page and click "Lists", it's near impossible to find anything interesting there because most of the lists are "Owned" lists. I think "Owned" list should be excluded from lists on book pages site wide.

When visiting a link to a Hardcover entry on mobile it by default opens the webpage, but there is no option to open it in the app. See: https://developer.android.com/training/app-links/create-deeplinks

Example: Firefox for Android has a menu option called "Open in app". Tapping it opens the corresponding page in the associated app. If I tap a youtube video link, it asks me if I want to open it in the browser or redirect it to the app. I haven't used Chrome in a while, but I think they open a dialog box asking the same question.

whenever I type in a name for a book, if there's a typo, or I back out of a search, it shows blank results and maybe I cannot exactly explain it, this does feel very glitchy.

Series tracker is one the best features of this site. But is quite hidden compare to the other features. It would be good if you can add the series tracker feature to a Dashboard on the main page.

In my created lists, it shows a "default" edition cover. It would be good if any created lists would show the cover of my "Select Current Edition" cover.

When adding a new book (new book page) or edition (on an existing book page) on mobile devices, could we also have the code bar reader that is already implemented in the search bar available in the value field of the card?

Links to each version for links to purchase options such as Amazon or other sites per edition and Libby for borrowing

I'm really enjoying using hardcover.app, but I've had occasions where I've had poor data and the app refuses to open. It would be amazing if the app was native but would still be great if it was a true PWA with offline support to just be able to do simple things like update progress and status of books already in my lists.

I love the ability to follow a series and how you can see it under network-series in your profile. But is there anyway to show how many books from the series you have read in that first list view. Obviously i can click on it and get the individual book statuses but if there was an indicator on that list view of followed series i could avoid clicking in the series i have followed but finished and open the ones i need to finish. Basically like the progress data for 'Lists' ie 2/4 and highlighted green 4/4 when completed.

Have a total count of books at the top of every personal list and Read/WTR/DNF/CR lists.

Just a simple habit tracker for reading to track

• How many days it took to read a particular book
• How many days in a year read
• How many days read in total
  I've always wanted to track my reading through a heat map and build the habit to do so. It gives me motivation to keep reading honestly

It would be nice to have a new type of journal entry that allows you to build a glossary of terms, character profiles for a book or series. Possible enhancements could be the ability to export a StarDict for terms.

This will hopefully show the due date, the reading or listening pace required to catch up as the minor details and then the days left as the focus. The default sort could be earliest expiry first.

We can currently use lists to track requested, accepted and in progress ARC books but a proper countdown widget for ARCs and library borrowings would be a really good addition.

Add a widget for "want to read", like other custom lists.

It would be great if series could be annotated with Genres, Moods, Tags, and Content Warnings just like for books. Maybe the individual books could inherit these from the series so that the same items don't have to be added to each individual book in a series.

Currently, the author name in a card or table view is plain text but could link to the author's page instead.

The current selection of pronouns covers a wide-range of users but not all. Increasingly people do not mind specific pronouns and would like that to be listed in a manner such as "Any Pronouns" rather than "Not Specified" or "Other".

I'd like to create reading goals based on genres, moods or lists.

User story examples:

1. As a user I'd like to create a reading goal to read 12 books within a certain time frame that were marked to be of the genre Science Fiction.

2. As a user I'd like to create a reading goal to read 12 books within a certain time frame that were tagged with the mood "thought provoking".

3. As a user I'd like to create a list called "TBR Summer 2026" and set it as a reading goal to read all books on that list within a certain time frame.

When a sequel to a book is released, I would like to automatically be notified. For example, if a series with Book 1 and Book 2 are already released, I would want to be notified if Book 3 is ever published.

Ideally this feature can be on a per-book or series basis so I opt-in to track sequels I’m interested in.

It would be nice to have support for formatting in journal entries. In particular I'm looking for blockquote support

I want to chose myself which edition shows up in my libary, and in the lists I create

Some of the External Mappings will have book covers, this could be automatic imported, when no image is present
