      Allow users to turn owly links into QR codes by adding .qr to the end of the link like the new Google link shrinker (goo.gl) does... or offer the ability to use Google link shrinking within Hootsuite.

      • show my latest interaction and let me type notes about a contact in the tooltip.

        With multiple people working across our keywords and brands, it would be helpful to have some simple cues in terms of contact history.

        • Mark tweets that have been retweeted similar to those that have been replied to.

          Mark tweets that have been retweeted similar to those that have been replied to. This would be really helpful for teams that manage a Twitter account.

            Show in the reporting tab twitter follow count trends by day and map my tweets on it. That will let me see on a time scale how my tweets are doing to increase my followers

            • Remove or delete assignments

              We need clean the assignments area sometimes. It's important to us remove or delete the resolved assignments. Just add a remove or delete option to the assignmets area.

              • Give an option to delete multiple social profiles at once!

                when we are trying to update our facebook groups we are unable to delete all at once.Which is driving us crazy all the time whenever needed.

                • Add Location Options within the Job Search / Linkedin

                  at the moment I can just make a query, that doesn't give always the right results. It would be great if I can narrow the search by locations.

                    Can you wake up the site from snoozing on mouse activity as opposed to having to click a wake up button?

                    • Allow sorting of the people view by following, followers and klout

                      Need to be able to click on column headings to sort people on the people view by their stats.

                      The people view is awesome. I really only just discovered it through the recent hootsuite forum.

                      • create a Hootlet for IE8 that sits in the Command Bar.

                        A Hootlet that can be reduced to a single button that sits in the command bar of IE8 would be much appreciated.

                            Hootsuite should add a content managing section. A place where you can file away content ideas for future posts. This platform should be a place where you can have customizable folders that best suite your needs.... Quotes, Questions, Pictures, etc (similar to boards on Pinterest) and throughout your days you can dump ideas, thoughts or even content from the web into these categories to later mold into posts.
                            To take it even further. How awesome would it be if Hootsuite could track your use of this content. For example, if you generated a post that used information from the content…

                            • Load gaps in twitter timeline above current position so you don't have to scroll down to see what you missed

                              Currently while looking at my twitter timeline in hootsuite if there is a gap it loads the gap below my position making me have to scroll down to see what I've missed. Instead can you make it so gaps are filled in above my position in the timeline. I know previous versions of the app did this and it would be the feature that makes me use hootsuite exclusively as my mobile app.

                                • Allow viewing of timelines of private profiles of people you follow

                                  Hootsuite is the ONLY Twitter app I have in which I can't view the timelines of the people I follow if their profile is set to private. Even though their profile is private, I am STILL supposed to be able to view their timeline because I am actually following them. Hootsuite is the only Twitter app that doesn't allow you to view private timelines of the people you follow. That really sucks. This needs to be fixed immediately.

                                    If you follow a protected twitter account, their tweets will show up in your Home Feed. At this time, timelines from the profile pop-up are pulled through a public search and are unable to pull private users tweets.

                                    We’ll look at changing this functionality soon! Thanks for your feedback.

                                    Show the long url of a short link on hover. This functionality is available on other apps and the Twitter homepage. I'd like to be able to see where a short link goes before clicking on it.

                                    • Option to NOT have unique ow.ly URLs for each account I select, but rather the SAME URL for all.

                                      Hootsuite offers an awesome way to track ow.ly shortened URLs across accounts by giving each account it's own unique click stats. I'm more interested in using a single URL across multiple accounts. (I think this is how it used to work.)

                                      • Allow us to edit the title of an image

                                        It looks like once photos are posted, they're uploaded with the file name and there is no way to edit them. My photos have IMG_9207 (or something similar) as the description....

                                        Also, it'd be great to change the title tag, description, etc. for posts. When people RT or share my photos, it doesn't say anything about the photo, just "Ow.ly Image Uploaded".

                                        • Facebook check-in

                                          Have the places / check-in function also work with Facebook Check-in. Only works for FourSquare and posts a link to FourSquare. Would be nice if this function would also check-in on Facebook.

                                            While this feature is supported on many of our mobile apps, we hope to add this to the web app in the upcoming future.
