2015-08-03 16:37:19 James Mulholland description Simple bug but annoying: When a site is loading, the favorite star is not visible. Use-case: you get a website from a friend, or you click a link on a page when the network suddenly goes away. You want to save that page to look at it later, when your connection comes back. This is not possible because you can only bookmark pages after they're fully loaded. Simple bug but annoying: When a site is loading, the favourite star is not visible. Use-case: you get a website from a friend, or you click a link on a page when the network suddenly goes away. You want to save that page to look at it later, when your connection comes back. This is not possible because you can only bookmark pages after they're fully loaded. --- --- --- --- --- UX Comment: Having tried to reproduce the above use-case, I found the following: 1. Attempted to visit a URL with no active connection. 2. 'Network Error' page is shown. 3. User may still tap star to favourite entered URL. In the 'look at it later' use case described above, the user will still been able to favourite the URL for later use. In the absence of any other use-cases where this may cause a problem, I believe the current behaviour (intended to address the fact that 'one usually wants to bookmark the final location') is still valid.

I think in cases where the page isn't yet known, we can use the URL as the bookmark name/ in place of a page title (I believe bookmarks currently work this way already). Recommended behaviour: 1. Enter URL for large website with lots of images (e.g. theverge.com). 2. Before page loads, switch to airplane mode. 3. After a reasonable period (15-30 seconds) 'Network Error' page is shown. 4. 'Favourite/Star' icon is available in address bar throughout. https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1Qrd4Flfs3EH-fI79IfrYgLdAx2nce-L7ve8NKLCX324/edit#slide=id.g2a8e607ab_037

Ideally we'd also strip the protocol, to keep things cleaner. Recommended behaviour: 1. Enter URL for large website with lots of images (e.g. theverge.com). 2.
