Would love to see some mod tools added to the app. Happy to help test and provide feedback on them if needed.

A few ideas as places to get started:

Community Modlog available in client
Remove post / comment
Ban user (with checkbox to remove all posts)
Community search box (used to check duplicates and certain bad words) (also mod action should be able to be taken from search results)

More advanced options that would be awesome to have and would give features even the web UI is missing:

Thread nuking (recursive delete) as some threads devolve into totally toxic chat wars and I just want to remove a comment and all under it (the starting point could sometimes be a few replies in and not necessarily a top comment)
Search lists with regular expressions where I can one button run an advanced search list on a community I moderate with the matches highlighted within the comments or posts returned
Push notifications for reports

Thanks, this is a great summary. Mod features are definitely on my list, but I've decided to focus on polishing the regular day-to-day experience first. I'll probably start with the modlog at some point, then expand on that over time. I've already got some ideas on how to make the mod-life as effortless as possible, but very interested in hearing more from people with more personal experience.

Btw, there's already a community search function, its shown when you tap the ellipsis button in the community header!

One more idea I had, maybe an icon for when the post title and article title don’t match could be displayed next to the title? Like how the baby emoji is displayed next to new users. This could be a feature everyone, even non-mods, would find useful as they’d be able to see who’s messing around with the headlines.

That'd be pretty cool actually, I'll look into it! Would be pretty nice to have for link previews as well

Oh nice, I had totally missed that search in the options!

Would be happy to help you test out any new mod features or provide feedback on them as they come out.
