[FEATURE REQUEST] Erase chapter data

Open yetiam-on-git opened this issue 11 months ago • 0 comments

Preflight Checklist

  • [x] I have read and I agree to follow the support disclaimer.
  • [x] I am sure that my feature request has nothing to with third party extensions.
  • [x] I am using the latest available Paperback version (currently 0.8).
  • [x] I have searched the issue tracker for a feature request that matches the one I want to file, without success.

What type of Apple device is the feature request for?

All device types

Describe the feature

The only real way to erase your chapter data is to reinstall the app and painstakingly repopulate your Library using screenshots and Anilist without restoring your backup. I request a way to erase chapter data:

  1. for a specific source,
  2. for every series not in your Library, or
  3. for every series with 0 chapters read with the ability to combine any/all of the three options.

Feature Motivation

Sometimes you just want to reset your reading progress. My Chapter Database is at >100k chapters, and I suspect that it slows down the app and uses a lot more battery life now than it did when I installed it, especially when reading manhwa chapters with 100+ pages. There’s no need to save every chapter forever.

Anything Else?

Feel free to take this as a 0.9 feature request, of course. I know 0.8 is no longer being updated. Image
