Integrate reading tracker with current reading challenge services like Beanstack
The reading tracker is fun, but I know some of our folks are confused about whether or not they can use it to track reading for challenges like our Summer Reading Challenge. If this could be integrated in the future, that would be great

'You are here' guide within Mobile
The ability to use an interactive map that allows patrons to see where they are at in the library in relation to a booked room or event that they signed up for. It would help them in real time find their way to the desired location.

Suppress the linked data 100 $1 information in the Titles on Hold area of the app
In Vega Mobile when a patron is viewing their titles on hold, the URI (100 $1) displays. We'd like the ability to suppress this field information or have it hidden by default. It is confusing to patrons and given the limited space in the app, we'd love to free this up for more useful information. Our site tried hiding it in the classic catalog to see if this would impact the mobile app but it had not impact when doing so. Thanks.

LEAP Patron message show up in the app
We'd like to see the Leap patron message pop up in the mobile app, ideally as a banner on top when the patron logs into the app.

Integration for Lorel from Grove
Grove for Libraries has introduced a product in collaboration with Ingram for enriched content, including covers. This option is not currently available for Vega Mobile. Perhaps it can replace Content Cafe in the interface?

Show due dates and hold queue counts in catalogue search results
Description:
When patrons search the catalogue in Vega Mobile, they should be able to see:
- The due date for any item that’s checked out
- How many holds are on the title
Why this matters:
At the moment patrons can only see that an item is “checked out”. They can’t tell if it will be back tomorrow or in three weeks, or whether ten people are already waiting for it. That’s the information they need to decide whether to place a hold, borrow a different format, pick another branch or buy the book.
Suggested behaviour:
- Show the due date next to…

Ability to edit or remove the My Barcode banner on the Vega Mobile home screen.
Some sites may want to remove the My Barcode banner or customize the look and feel. Currently this is not possible.

Add Widget Functionality
A suggestion to increase Widget Functionality with the Ida app. Some patrons use a lot of widgets, and would find it very useful if there was the option to use a widget with Ida that displayed the barcodes linked in the App (and ideally checkouts, and due dates, but barcode(s) at least).

Allow for wildcard searches in Vega Mobile app catalog
It would be nice for patrons to be able to use wildcards in their searches on the mobile app, as this currently does not work. This appears to be an issue regardless of mobile OS.

Create functional parity for large text version of the app
This post revives two previous posts that aged out:
https://ideas.iii.com/forums/951979-vega-mobile/suggestions/48433277-more-accessibility-to-homepage-when-screen-display
https://ideas.iii.com/forums/951979-vega-mobile/suggestions/48771905-include-all-components-in-large-text-version-of-apEspecially with the updates to ADA requirements coming in April 2027 (depending on the size of your institution), this seems like it's potentially not just a fairness issue, but a legal issue. The large print version of the app should have effectively equivalent functionality to the standard version, including the ability to log in and see images.

Add translation strings for search filters
This is reviving an older idea that aged out of the consideration process: https://ideas.iii.com/forums/951979-vega-mobile/suggestions/47199707-translate-search-filter-dropdown-options-in-innova
Filter options display only in English and are not customizable. If translation strings could be added for filter options, it would not only provide libraries with the option to customize the exact wording to match what they use elsewhere outside of the app, but it would allow us to provide much better services to patrons who don't read English. In the city where my library is located, the MAJORITY of households speak a language other than English at home. Providing multilingual support is a key feature…

Ability to make the home screen logo linkable to a website
It would be great if the home screen logo went to our website when patrons tapped on it instead of having to create a new tab within the app for the website.

Consortia - base mobile app home library on stat code
Sometimes users that live in the tax area (municipality, etc) of library A sign up for their card at library B. In this case, the registered at library is B, and the stat code is A. The stat code controls access to Overdrive and the like-services paid for by library A. We would like the app, after sign in, to select the library it display based on stat code, rather than registered at

Option to Hide Linked Account Label
An enhancement to provide an option to remove or hide the Linked Account label/button for specialized libraries that do not use this functionality.
Allowing administrators to disable or hide the Linked Account function would help create a cleaner interface and improve the overall user experience.

Link to New Events/Room Bookings in Slide Menu
With the Vega Program integration, it seems like the patron must have already booked in for an event or room reservation for the account menu to display "Bookings" and "Room Bookings." It would be nice to for those items to be persistent if the integration is enabled or for the library to toggle on/off. I would also expect a link to be able to access new events and room bookings from the menu, instead of just viewing history.
