Patina Filter

I’d love to be able to search specifically for boots that have been worn and broken in. The search filters give a lot of precision as to boot make up but I then have to manually sort to see which show patina. Could you add a filter to search for duration of wear?

congressmancuff,

I've been thinking about how to solve this problem and wanted to get your input. Would you find either of these options—or a combination—helpful?

A filter for duration owned
A quick way to view the number of photos

Let me know what you think!

Patina Project hi! Thanks for considering it—sorry for the delayed response, haven’t had a lot of bandwidth this month. 
Neither of those options quite match the function I’m hoping for, which would be to filter or sort for age of boot in most recent photos. I’m usually looking to see how a boot looks at 6 or 12 months or longer, so just filtering by age of first photo or number of photos won’t quite help me find that—although it helps me get closer. Would it be possible to use the age of the boot in most recent photo uploads as the variable for the filter/sort function? I can see that age displayed in the album view, that’s the number I’d be looking to use for exploring the collections. 
Thanks for your work on the app!

congressmancuff: I appreciate you going into more detail about the "filter by age" tool that you need. There will be a pass on improving the filters this year, and I will incorporate your feedback into the changes.
