Wishlisting by accident on for you page

Helloorrr, so lately I’ve been getting a bit frustrated by the system of how you wishlist patterns when you are scrolling on the fyp, or at least as a phone user.
I find that when I am just scrolling through the patterns, if I accidentally click on the picture it automatically wishlists it, and I don’t know if it’s just me, but a lot of times I mean to scroll off of the pattern but instead I accidentally click it and it gets wishlisted and it’s just kinda annoying how easy it is to do a single click on a pattern and it will get wishlisted even if it was not intened.
I just feel like it would make much more sense if the only place to wishlist the pattern was too click on the ā€œsaveā€ button that’s already there and works just fine, instead of being able to also wishlist it by clicking anywhere else on the pattern photo.


Or even if you could double click on the photo to wishlist it that might be better.
I don’t know if I’m the only person that struggles with this, but I just thought I’d bring it up since the amazing ribblr team is always open to suggestions :)

~ thank you :revolving_hearts:

Well, since it’s so easy to unclick it, I feel like it’s not that big of a problem. I personally haven’t had trouble with it, but I can see how it could be a problem!

Double tap would be great. Good for… efficiency? (More just my lazyness)

It’s not that, it’s when you are scrolling and you don’t realize that you hit it then your wish list is messed up

We will look into it. It’s supposed to be a double tap to add to wishlist.

Is it something enlightenment related? Axolotlll (not to tag unnecessarily) seems to want to seize it… And I know both of you are in the party… Can’t wait to be let in (hopefully)…

except for the pop-up that covers the save button, so you have to stop and wait for it to go away before un-listing it, but I shouldn’t have to do that, because the feature is completely pointless anyway, as there is literally a big, easy to click save button already there, and arguably clicking that is way easier and far more logical than tapping the image, or even double tapping it. all it does is introduce the possibility of issues like this. almost every 3 posts I scroll over get unintentionally added to my wishlist and it is totally messing up my ā€˜for you’ feed and it makes the mobile app unusable for me, because I dont want to waste 5 minutes to scroll over 15 listing whereas, on computer (where this issue doesnt exist) I can scroll through like 70 posts in the same amount of time

has there been any updates on if this problem will be fixed, or when it will be fixed?

We’re looking into this.
