@CovenStine said in Display "Synced Device History" as a submenu (or otherwise) in the History Panel:
I cannot say enough about how impressively Vivaldi Snyc has grown from the inception of Sync on Vivaldi- in general it works very well for moving between machines if needed, and I find that it is mostly because of the Synced Tabs heading in the WindowsMyMilestoneCard Panel.
Being able to search for open tabs on multiple devices on multiple OSes is a wonderful feature.
But I think it could be even better, by implementing this for history, also.
This could be accomplished by:
Having a History on Other Devices primary sort heading in the History Panel
Adding a All Devices entry to the drop-down menu below the search box in the History Panel
Even better, adding a second drop-down menu for Devices within the History Panel, where users can see the devices included in their account, just like with the Windows Panel, and select a specific device's history to view, or choose to browse all of their devices' history as one continuous session
I think this would make it much easier to find history elements, rather than relying on typing in the Address Bar to locate items in the Synced History, especially for those of us that remember the Favicon rather than the name/address
Hello,
Your suggestions for enhancing Vivaldi Sync, particularly regarding the history feature, are quite insightful. The ability to sort and access history across devices in a more streamlined and visual manner could indeed improve user experience significantly.
Here’s a summary of your ideas for improving Vivaldi Sync’s history feature:
History on Other Devices: Introduce a primary sorting heading in the History Panel for other devices.
All Devices Dropdown: Add an ‘All Devices’ option in the dropdown menu below the search box in the History Panel.
Device-Specific Dropdown: Implement a second dropdown menu within the History Panel to select and view history from specific devices or all devices collectively.
Synced Device History Menu: Display a submenu or similar feature in the History Panel for easier access to synced device history.
These enhancements would not only facilitate easier navigation through history elements but also cater to users who rely more on visual cues like Favicons.
I hope the information may helps you.
