Who hates having to scroll for a long time for basic parts and other things?

A Search Engine would be beneficial and fairly simple to do.

This would alleviate the issue and is easy to do since the items are already in a list, so just code a simple search engine from that list, with a form to input the search and then the results.

I agree. So tired of scrolling.

Yes please Storm8 fix this, they need to remove past goals so it can be easier to gift basic parts

The problem is increasing at least twice a month with the addition of new goal items. Why not use existing parts for new goals? I don't understand why 4 new items need to be added for each goal? In the early days, multiple appliances would use the same part. Additionally, Android previously had a version of the game where the bar would stay fixed in the place it was last used. PLEASE re-trigger this fix. I am starting to think they want us to quit.

I have arthritis in my hands and find it impossible to keep hitting the little arrow perfectly each time to to find everyone the gift they want.

yes they should have tabs. One for food, one for basic parts like screws, gear, oven element etc, one for goal parts

Please fix this problem. I agree with all of the above. It’s taking away the fun of gifting.
Thanks �� please fix ��

This would be such a huge improvement! It seems like the developers haven't made very many fundamental changes to the game, so I wonder how likely it is that this issue will ever be addressed.

kayjo <<scrolling for parts isn’t that big a deal.>>>
Kayjo I'm curious if you use an Apple device? Scrolling / Gifting / and Taking inventory on 'My Gifts' is MUCH harder for Android users than it is for Apple users. Though I just realized that placing design items is actually harder for Apple users than Android users. Still, people don't redesign as often as gifting which usually happens every day.

****************************
Debbie Downer, here. I've seen a lot of these same complaints come up over the years and never seen company take action. But what the heck I'll add my 2 cents if only to help neighbors understand the challenges other neighbors have - especially if one neighbor plays with an Apple Device and the other an Android.

Summary of Complaints I'd like fixed - and match the fix on BOTH ANDROID & APPLE:
1) for sure a "food" tab on BS would be great, (like in RS)
2) so would a "basic parts" tab for BOTH BS & RS
3) Once you've used the food tab (or potential parts tab) - be able to SCROLL FROM there.
4) AND being able to FREEZE scrolling at the place where you stopped/sent your gift - (which you can do on Apple but not Android)
5) In the "my gifts" catalogue - arrange the last-received gifts at the FRONT of the catalogue - the way it's arranged on Apple devices. Android places the latest-received gifts at the back of the 'my gifts' catalogue - where a player may have to scroll 100s of pages just to see / take inventory of basic parts/food.
6) Apple's gifts catalogue, and 'my gifts' catalogue, allows you to "spin" through the catalogue, jump a few pages per spin. So you don't have to tap 100+ times to get to the end.
7) Ads work on Apple - so you can still reduce the time to cook some recipes. Ads no longer work on Androids since a few years ago.
8) arrange the 'design' catalogues with more detailed tabs
9) Freeze scrolling on Design catalogues --- like on Android devices. On APPLE (the only downside to apple I've seen, but it's a biggie) - When you place an item from design catalogues, don't start the menu over - forcing player re-scroll in order to see and/or place items beyond the item you just placed. On androids - it freezes where you were - where you selected an item to place. So if you place an item and want to keep scrolling for more items, or decide you don't like it & store it again - you can continue browsing from where you left off.

With regards to the gift catalogue - It'd be great to arrange the catalogue backwards --- so that all the oldest parts (&food) are at the front - and then create a Tab to jump to the beginning of the 'main goal section' of parts - where you would land on current main goal parts - but - then -- could scroll onward to find other older, main-goal parts - in case you're working on old main goal appliances.

I'm sure I've got other complaints but these are the ones coming to mind - I just keep editing and adding.

Hi! I think, storm8 should sort the gifts , and we can choose.
BASIC PARTS
FOOD
NEW GOAL ITEMS
OLD GOAL ITEMS
RECENT PAST'S GOAL ITEMS

Thank You

I agree wholeheartedly!

I think they should also allow people to REQUEST which part they want gifted (the same way you do for challenge parts). That way the giftee could do the scrolling for what they want gifted and all the gifters would have to do is press "accept"!

[sports15gurl2]

Agree completely! It used to be much faster to return the same parts to others. Now, I scroll through 10+ years of parts to do it. Who wants the bother?
