Should probably mention that “The Roadmap” is probably made up from the topics in the [Releases category](https://meta.discourse.org/c/releases), you can’t really vote for “I think the roadmap is fine as is” without reading the roadmap.

Some of these have come up many times, but here is a little wish list from me…

- **Android Performance**
- **I believe the road map covers this.**
- Since launching with Discourse in several communities I have been feeling the impact of this and know first hand that members have left the community because they feel the Discourse mobile client is “too slow” / unusable - “the old one worked and was fast”.
- It’s the beast that never seems to go away - but the current release 1.3 hopefully helps **fingers crossed**.

- **Official Discourse “Chat”**
- I believe it’s important to keep conversations inside the communities to drive people to come back.
- For one community I help with - currently users are being lost to Facebook Chat, then users move to Facebook groups because of better integration / notifications (real feedback from small community).
- Important that the design doesn’t mean that topic posts go down. Perhaps tools to convert a chat conversation into a topic?

- **“First class” Android and iOS notifications**
- again driving users to return and allow for faster moving conversation within a community.
- **Full-page search**
- **I believe the road map covers this.**
- Generally accessible more search options, users don’t understand they can type filters like `order:latest` even though the help is there.
- For an older community (10+ years) pulling up older topics are not always more relevant - an easy option for a user to select. I’ve had reports of a user purchasing products based on forum recommendations in an older topic - not realising there was a newer topic just a few weeks earlier - as it didn’t appear within the first 5/6 search results but included the keywords.
