Postcard Management Suggestion

Please add a history log feature that shows what postcards you’ve sent to friends. Some friends keep send me the same postcard, I’m assuming because they’ve forgotten they sent it before.

I can only speak on my behalf, but I expect this issue affects a sizable segment of the player base. Due to the close proximity of certain mushrooms, I end up receiving the same few battle postcards repeatedly. (Specifically, the mushrooms within range of my work and home.) By receiving constant duplicates it becomes quite a chore to delete the unwanted postcards, and it’s reached the point that I avoid attacking mushrooms unless absolutely required for an event or level progression,

To remedy this, I would strongly suggest the developers add a delete postcard button on the mushroom challenge postcard collection screen, (as depicted in the jpeg) to allow players the ability to quickly delete unwanted duplicates.

I appreciate the time and consideration. Thank you.

Hi, @TickMagnet! Welcome to the community forum. I’ve merged your post with a related thread for visibility.

I actually feel like adding some categories to the postcard organizer would be better. Like have it organize by who sent it to you and by type of postcard. If it could organize By player having every postcard from one friend, then every postcard from the next would at least make it less of a struggle trying to keep something from each friend who sends postcards (and if you have some postcards from different friends who left the game or defriended causing a blank card that can’t be sent they could all be grouped together and the ones you pick up can have their own separate spot from it) another one would be to organize by it by event postcard type like all the Easter ones together and the Valentine’s ones all together for example

I would like if you could sort by quantity so I could see postcards from the same location that I have the most of first or the same special event types. Right now I sort by distance and have to scroll through looking for ones I have a lot of.

Please give my regards to those who decided to implement this idea. Thank you.

It would be nice if we could send postcards from a friend to other friends.

That’s exactly what I do wish as well. Please add a filter option to find postcards with duplicates or higher amounts.

I also agree bringing visibility to duplicate postcards would use useful.

Maybe under the postcard sort options, including a “view duplicates” option that would only show postcards that I have more than 1 of. It would make sending spare postcards to friends waaay easier. Thanks! :grin:

I’ve come to realize that accepting postcards from friends counts toward your friendship badge, so be sure to receive those unwanted postcards if you want to earn the friendship badges and don’t feel too guilty about sending unwanted duplicates to your friends (at least the ones who keep returning cards and appear to understand these mechanics).

You can always delete the unwanted postcards after you’ve accepted them.

Click on yourself to view your badges and then click on the friendship badge to view friendship interactions. Read the details in the help.

Sorry for rejecting postcards in the past. :pensive_face:

YES, please have a feature on the Friends section where you can view for each friend what postcards you have sent them.
OR perhaps when you click to send a particular friend a post card, you can see the history of postcards you have sent them before.

I see the post was created last year. And I assume they are some other post with same request.
I think this is a good game improvement because I am the one of them who confused did I send this to this friend already? :sweat_smile:
Please add the function that we can see the history of postcards that we have sent to this friend.

Same here — at some point I just completely lost track of who I’d already sent to.

I ended up making a little app for it. Basically you screenshot the gift screen after sending, share it to the app, and it picks up the friend name and postcard info automatically. Everything stays on your phone. Makes it easy to check who you haven’t sent to in a while.

It’s called Pikgeon, should come up on the App Store / Google Play. :blush:
