Custom Fields
Tsvetelin Pavlov
There are cases, when I want to add more metadata to a bookmark - i.e. I have bookmark of hotels and I want to add room price or I have a list of cars and I want to be able to add price, engine capacity and so on.

Personalized properties
g
gmmazza
Currently, I'm doing a workflow management from the bookmarks with tags, but could be great to be able to define personalized properties to make bookmarks into workflows or relate them directly.
Workflow example, I found a YouTube video that recommends a web tool. I do a search of the URL and other opinions, but I want to keep them together to further research. (I can Make the saving all tabs, but could be great to associate to a property that says, research, and tool)
I do this with collections and tags, but the maintenance and visualization for working with them is cumbersome, this could be make easier with personalized properties standard to all bookmarks.

Grabbing ISBN and DIO and saving reference entries
Viktor Gerber
When pinning a book or an article I would like that raindrop extracts the object identifier (e.g. ISBN, DOI) and saves the content by the identifier.
An optional feature could be: Raindrop could detect whether it's a book or an periodical and categorize it as it is like it does with other content types (video, documents)
Why:
Sometimes I save books from amazon or Google Books and raindrop doesn't recognise duplicates that way.

Hi i often take paper notes for study, it would be nice to have an auto generated id on each link of let say 4 chars so i can write it down on my paper notes, so i could find them later

Scrape page content to custom fields e.g. to show total cost of a wishlist on Amazon
Mark Smith
I'm a newbie but already disappointed in the lacking intelligence. And I'm not just talking AI... I would have expected that there would have been some intelligent scraping to fill out the fields e.g. on Amazon sites that would fill the price into a field - it's so goddam obvious I can't actually believe I'm wring this.
And same goes for other popular sites e.g. LinkedIn jobs - if I try to bookmark the page it often picks up something "Top job picks for you | LinkedIn" rather than the job title which is what we all want, right. And here I think a mapping of number of applicants would be useful, why can't we have a way to search content to map to custom fields... maybe curate a few mappings for obvious ones; the Amazons, LinkedIn, eBay, allow users to create their own mappings and offer AI to maybe assist...
Enhancement Request
- a few custom fields, date, number that can be sorted and summed in lists
- a search content and map feature made available that users can map bespoke (against domain e.g. Amazon.de)
- some curated examples (see above)
- possible use of AI to support at later date

Add "Due Date" ("Expect By" Date) / Package Tracking, Sales, etc.
A
AR Test
Due Dates ("Expect By" Dates) – Tangentially related to Reminders, but different, because I do not need a Reminder: It would be nice to have "due dates" for links, for example, where I save all my package tracking links. (I have tried all the package tracking apps but since UPS and FedEx have started limiting API access preventing them from scraping the data it is pointless to use them anymore.)
It would be nice to save and sort by due date in one easy place! (I would happily manually add the "expect by" / "due date" when I initially add the Bookmark.) Dates that have passed could appear in RED to draw attention and prompt the user to take action or archive the link if it is no longer relevant.
Again, I do not need a "Reminder" notification, this is just to be low-touch for me to check in on things when convenient in a nice, organized, chronological format — I just would like to have some way of organizing these links in a way that's less tacky and more visual than simply editing the actual title of each bookmark with the date and then sorting alphabetically.

Status Field
R
Rick DiChristofaro
I'd like to be able to categorize bookmarks in various stages such as to-do, in progress, read later, reference, and complete. A status field could be a solution for this.
I think it could be straight forward to implement and would not clutter the UI. I imagine it being similar to the tag field and a user could create their own custom statuses.
I would like to be able to filter using the status field. It would also be nice if the app would let a user define a default status when a new bookmark is added.
I saw this feature request about archiving bookmarks https://better.raindrop.io/feature-requests/p/archive-read-bookmarks
It seems that feature is taking a while to implement, so maybe a simple status field could be a simple solution for archiving, at least in the short term, and for most users.
I'd like to hear what other people may think of this.

Structured Meta Data (e.g. publication date, author)
r
roxxistic
I use R to collect articles, papers, and books. I would like to add information like author(s), publication date etc. Then I would like to filter/search by such information or see stuff related to the current drop.
Yes, this would be doable with tags. But that would clutter tags massively.

Put more than one link to a Bookmark
i
irlife@mail.com
It would be really useful to have one card per subject but with several links, one of which would be the main one (which opens when we click on it). (We use with the team the tool for benchmarking and for one subject/topic we have almost always several links we want to share with each other.)
