List reading/checkout history as an option under Profile
On behalf of Riverside County Library: List reading/checkout history as a bullet point under Profile (along with holds, fines, linked accounts, etc.). If patrons don't currently have items checked out, they don't think to look under Checkouts for their reading history.

Send the self-check receipt to the patron's email address
Patrons are used to getting ereceipts when they use other self-check devices in the library, so the experience should be the same in the app.

Allow patrons to edit the same account details as they can in PAC
In our current PAC, patrons are able to edit their email address, phone number, notification preference, and preferred pickup location. It would be great if they could do those things in the app too.

More filtering options
Offer more filtering options when doing a search in the mobile app. It would be helpful to include a filter for children's, young adult, or adult materials as well as language filtering.

Automatic refresh when opening the Solus App
Several staff have shared customer feedback re: the lack of an automatic refresh when opening the Solus App.
Several customers have complained after returning materials directly to a staff member that the items were still reflecting in their accounts when they checked their account in the app following that action.
Staff suggested they go in and click the refresh icon. At that point, the items cleared but, ideally, customers should not have to take that step. The app should auto refresh when customer opens the app.

Open social media links in their own app
The social media links open in the browser vs. directing to the app (if the user has said app installed on their device). Is there a way we can default to have it open in the IG app (and only redirect to the web version if they do not have it installed)? I see this as possibly being a confusing re-direct as app users may not be logged in ever from their phone's browser. Is it possible if we could use a link to redirect a user from the mobile app to the library's social media profile within the social…

The API from the social media site dictates where the link opens; for example, Facebook doesn't allow it, but X/Twitter does.

Self Check Receipts should disappear off the account over time
The Innovative Mobile app currently holds onto all successful and unsuccessful self checkout attempts as "receipts". The receipts are in the My Account area and can very much add up to being a lot of entries over time. It would be less cluttered and better if the self checkout receipts retained were only kept for 7-14 days and then disappeared off of the account. Ideally, a patron could also delete unsuccessful self checkout attempts off the account right away.

Add a "Share" Button for Individual Material
A way to improve Innovative Mobile would be the addition of a "Share" button attached to individual material. This would allow patrons to share content they find in the application among each other. This type of enhancement would be incredibly helpful to multiple groups of patrons, such as book clubs, learning groups and patron to patron engagement. This enhancement could help increase patron application usage as well.
An example of this button from fontawesome is the share-from-square icon: https://fontawesome.com/icons/share-from-square?f=classic&s=solid
If the share button copied a link to the clipboard of the device that clicked the button, with the link leading…

Scan Book - no results - return page
If we scan an ISBN, and it's not found, the app should return users to the Scan Book landing page. It currently returns users to the main landing page.

Host Innovative Mobile App on Amazon AppStore
Host Innovative Mobile App on Amazon AppStore as well as Google Play and Apple Store. Patrons often have Amazon Kindles for e-reading so it makes sense for them to use our library apps on them as well.

Mobile app social sharing
The Mobile app currently looks like it does not allow any social media sharing. There are links to X, Facebook, etc. but we do not see an integrated way to share a call number, ISBN, or Title link to the catalog that can be shared on those platforms. We would like the ability to click on a social icon that would transmit a brief info of the item to be posted into the customers social app or email message.

Make the barcode number a larger font or add the ability to pinch it larger in portrait mode
Right now we have people complaining that the barcode number is too small to read. We have been advising turning to landscape but it would be nice if the barcode number were larger in portrait mode or if you could pinch the number to zoom in.

Suppress formats with no results
It would be helpful if the format list in the app would adjust based on holdings and suppress any formats for which there are no holdings. For example, we have no globes cataloged in our system, so we would like globe to never show up as a format option, since we don't have any. It just clutters up the format list if the ones for which there are no holdings are also included.

Due Soon vs. Due Today
Patrons suggests that on the day their book is actually due, the app should reflect "item due now" rather than "due soon" as it is misleading.

Change menu glyph from bars (hamburger) to user (account)
The current hamburger menu opens an account menu, rather than the overall app menu. Changing the glyph from the bars glyph (https://fontawesome.com/icons/bars?f=classic&s=regular) to a user glyph (https://fontawesome.com/icons/user?f=classic&s=solid) would make it clearer that this is how you access your library account.
The menu link is located in the upper right of the app, which is a common place for an account link to go. And when you open this menu, there's already a round user avatar that appears at the top of the account menu. Swapping out the bars glyph for a user glyph would feel totally…

Allow for upcoming Vega associated/linked accounts to be integrated on Innovative Mobile
With the upcoming development of Vega associated/linked patron accounts, we'd like the III Mobile App to integrate this automagically, rather than requiring patrons to set it up both on Vega and on the III mobile app. Vega should supersede the III Mobile App for all account related features.

Include Item Fixed Field 108 (OPACMSG) in the full record display of the app
In our consortium, libraries often use item field 108 OPACMSG to indicate NEW or other information that helps patrons find titles within their library. In the app, in a full record display, that information is not available. Could Innovative work with Solus to pull in that field using the Rest API or by another means? It would shed light on titles and reduce confusion with patrons. (As an aside, this same field could be added to the initial brief display within the Mobile Worklists app as well).
