Slowness / Lagging when Adding Tags to Lots of Books
Up Next
Dec 11, 2023
I have ran into this a few times with adding tags. Specifically just now I was going through my owned titles and adding tags to them all and after about 15 books adding tags to future books started to slow down and there is a delay when you are typing in the tag field and selecting them in the drop down.
I am in Safari Version 17.1.2 (19616.2.9.11.12)
Has anyone else experienced this?

I'm having the same issue, specifically on the owned-books page, it started fine and then as I added tags to more and more books it became so laggy, it's almost impossible to tag them. Good to know a fix will be incoming, it's a bit unusable at the moment unfortunately.
Same issue here, adding time takes 10 seconds with multiple retries as the window jumps, the inputed text suddenly duplicates or you click on a tag, it doesn't work and you need to restart from scratch. Love the app and the new features but a better response time would be awesome.
superpuffin Yes, we'll be prioritising performance some time this year, and perhaps sooner than originally planned.
Nadia Will this also address the infinite scroll issue?
bearpolar Re performance, the plan is for there to no slowness/lagginess in the app. If infinite scroll is causing slowness somewhere then it will be removed, though in most cases it's not the infinite scroll itself that's causing issues, but other underlying issues then exacerbated by infinite scroll. If you're talking about a UX preference for not having infinite scroll then that'll be handled separately on a case-by-case basis.
This is a known issue! Will hopefully be fixing it some time next year.
