Accidentally mark feed as read on iOS

  • Idea
  • Updated 2 months ago
On the iOS Feed List swiping a feed to the left will mark everything in the feed as read. I have accidentally activated this action a few times. 
Can we please have an preference to disable this swipe or a confirmation dialog?
Thanks!

Add my vote to this. It would be great if there were an option to disable left/right swiping of feeds. On the iPad, I inadvertently do this a lot.

An optional confirmation dialog of "mark all as read" would be great - I'd love it in blurblog feeds especially.

Yeah, I'm surprised I left this preference out. I'll try to add an option to disabling swiping feeds/stories for the next update.

Ok, finished: https://github.com/samuelclay/NewsBlur/commit/5ded641d2648cd1d3b98de34d3ee9c22dd2f8ebe. Will be in the next release, whenever I've gotten enough into the app. Now's a great time to ask for other small features on iOS.
