Hi Dmitry, How about promoting the app to Mobile Web users and on the desktop site with occasional watchlist notices? Also, perhaps Fundraising or Research would let you send occasional emails (quarterly at most) to their email lists? Pine Pine On Wed, Jul 8, 2015 at 12:58 PM, Dmitry Brant

Thanks Toby. I continue to note that mobile web is much better suited to editing than the Android app is, so I hope that mobile web users, particularly those who are logged in, will have the option to disable the banners. I do think that a test like you're describing is a good idea. Thanks,

Hi Baha, I'm afraid that support for watchlists is not in the immediate future for the app. However, one thing that we're planning on doing is syncing of saved pages across devices (i.e. the list of saved pages persists with the user's account), but this is also more towards Q2/Q3. On Wed, Jul
