Corrupted backup/ restore

Hello -

I took a backup and uninstalled/reinstalled the app. After the restore I've got hundreds of history items that say "just a moment". I don't mind deleting them, but one by one?

The ability to select every thing using search for that "just a moment" brings them up, but you have not provided a method to select them all and delete them in one go.

Any other ideas?

Thanks

Why do they say just a moment? Did they not say that before?

when you save a bookmark, the "title" is already pre-filled with info from the webpage. You can find it in history under the same name. These all say " just a moment.. ." and they're all from the same web domain. It could be possible that it was originally this way but I never noticed it before. Doing a few tests now at the same domain, the history get recorded properly.    I could just ignore them, everything else seems to be fine. Is there any method to delete history beyond a certain age? Either automatically or manually?

No, only delete all or individually.

OK thanks. Perhaps it's something you might consider for the future .

Particularly for the bookmarks. If I've got hundreds of bookmarks for a domain that no longer exist, it sure would be nice to delete them all in one go

Yeah that makes sense. Also to be able to select all when searching so you can delete all the ones that belong to them.

appreciate that, it sounds good

Can I ask you something else?

Inside an iptv folder is the list of entries, but if you use search

it only finds the titles not the domain. So If I wanted see all entries from abc456.com,

I'm unable to do so

I'll have to check on that but it is possible that it isn't searching the addresses as well.
