    The slide functionality needs a touch. One can easily delete a collected item while trying to scroll down. Allow confirmation before deletion. Wonderful tool

    Not sure what you're referring to here. Can you say more? What platform are you talking about and how exactly are you accidentally deleting an item?

    IOS platform.

    When I open the library, there's a list of my collections.

    When I scrolled down, I accidentally swiped left on an item. The hidden add/remove folder and delete options appear.
    However the delete option is on the furthest right where my finger is scrolling downwards so in haste this option is also pressed and the item got deleted.

    It happened so fast and I realised it would be great if the delete option had an extra confirmation.

    This is a standard iOS list and works the same as other apps, like Mail. A delete confirmation would be far too disruptive. If you delete something by accident you can restore it from the trash.
