New "stopped reading" icon

[shabbann]

Whenever I try to do a khitmah using the app, I end up losing the page I was on and either have to start over or abandon it entirely.

The current bookmarks and “last page” features don’t help, bookmarks are messy to manage and hard to track where I actually stopped, and the “last page” changes if I search for something unrelated to the khitmah.

I suggest adding a “stopped reading” icon next to the “last page” icon, which users can set manually similar to the one shown in the image in real life qurans

This is a great idea! I too have experienced the same issue. Basically if the current bookmark feature only stored 1 bookmark at a time. Is that what you imagined?

the current bookmark feature only stored 1 bookmark at a time

this would work too

I was thinking of something similar to the “last_page” feature but without the auto-update with the last page you visited and
adding a “StoppedReading” -I'm not good at naming- option in the drop-down menu that lets the user set it manually

and using something like this in the main menu would give a good indicator to its behaviour -I'm not good at drawing-

Sounds good. I guess we'll wait to have some input from the maintainers.

I use the ayah bookmark not the pages one to khatma
Try use it and it you will never dace this issue again

sorry what is the difference between this and page bookmarking

sorry what is the difference between this and page bookmarking

Page bookmark is for a whole page (the beginning of a page). Ayah bookmark is for an exact ayah within a page.

agree and definitely want this feature too - the team started discussions about this recently since we're trying to make sure to bring this with a unified way of working across both Android, iOS, and Quran.com.

Is there any updates about the discussion results, so if efforts needed we would share and contributions would start to pick.

We agreed we will do this in sha' Allah but after the core sync stuff
