    • Automatically sync tabs with hootsuite web dashboard

      Right now you can import your hootsuite web dashboard tabs and settings after setting up the Android app for the first time, but if you change something in your tabs or add new ones it doesn't seem to sync this with the web dashboard and vice versa. It would be great if you guys could sync these settings at any time after changing something.

        • Longpressing a tweet gives access to a menu with all functions to choose from.

          I would like to get access to all functions (RT, DM, follow, unfollow, friends, followers, blocking, settings, GPS on/off, ...) by longpresing on a tweet. Longpressing should show a screen/menu with these options too choose from by a tick.

          • Offer a dark theme in the Android app similar to the one on the web.

            Blue is nice but dark is better, at least for some people.

            • When hootsuite refreshes, it must keep my place in the timeline.

              If many Android twitter apps can do this, your web and android apps should as well.

              • offer the option having an image thumbnail and or preview for Facebook posts from the Android app.

                When posting from the Android app to Facebook only a link is posted without a preview and or thumbnail below the actual post.

                • Color code @mentions and your own tweets

                  I would be great to be able to do a quick skim of your main messages and see a separate background color for @mentions of you and another color for your own tweets. Offsetting your picture is a help, but it still needs to stand out faster.

                  • Adjustable font size in streams

                    I have a large, beautiful, hi-res display on my EVO, but I can see only about five Tweets at a time. Would love a choice of font sizes so that I could make mine teeny-weeny tiny.

                    • Android version needs option to NOT run at system startup.

                      I see that it is running as a background process when I restart my device. This should be optional.

                        The app currently runs as a service. We’re looking into adding options to better manage this.

                      • Interact with Facebook as Page

                        The new Facebook Pages allows you to "like" other pages' posts and comment on them as your page, not just as your personal account. You can also view your page's "News Feed." For people who use Facebook Pages for businesses and such, this would be a great option.

                        • Make a way to display a unified feed for a tab

                          When I was setting up tabs, I was really expecting the various feeds I specified to be merged together. I created one for my newsfeeds on Twitter/Facebook and another for my Twitter direct messages.

                          Instead, they just seem to be ways of organizing separate feeds - there's no way to merge feeds that I could find.

                          Coming from Tweetdeck for Android where a unified feed was standard. To me, the whole point of using a single program for FB and Twitter and other networks is to integrate them - if I still have to change views, I might as well…

                              When I share a photo on Android via Hootsuite to Facebook, the photo doesn't embed on my wall... it just displays a link. So, people who are viewing my wall have no idea there's a photo connected to that link. How can we have photos added to an album and displayed on my Facebook wall when sharing from Android?

                                    • Integrate apps from directory into Android Application

                                      I'd love to use hootsuite as my one stop android application for ALL my social networks, Tumblr included. Thing is, for some reason we can't view our tumblr streams on out android phone! D:
                                      If we could do this, we wouldn't need the terrible Tumblr app!

                                        Thanks for the awesome feedback, everyone. We would love to add Apps from our Directory to HootSuite Mobile in a future release.

                                      • Add an edit feature for scheduled messages in Android app

                                        I am a Community Manager who use very often Hootsuite. In my new project, I have to post and administrate my social networks outdoors, so I need to use the Android app for mobiles, wich is great except for the fact that you can´t edit your scheduled messages in the app! This is a real trouble, and I think it would be great if you add that feature. Regards.

                                        • allow tablet users to access the full site, or optimmize thea version of hte app for tablets to resemble the full service deal

                                          I have an android xoom. The android app is set up just for s phone and does not format nicely on the tablet. However, when I go to hootsuite using the browser I cannot actually USE hootsuite; all I am given is tons of ads and info an doptions about the app.
