Right now when you are typing into the address bar to search for a bookmark or a page you visited recently, Einkbro only shows the page title. This is fine for websites that have unique titles, but many paged websites (e.g. Reddit) do not change the title based on what page you are on, so you can end up seeing dozens of results with exactly the same title and there is no way to tell which is the first page.
An easy way to test this:
-> Now you get multiple hits with Reddit favicon and title of "eink", all on the same date, cannot tell which one is which
It would make life a lot easier if the URL was always shown in the autocomplete results, or at least if there was a settings option to show it.
I think it would also be useful in the bookmarks, since there we do not have a favicon, so a default page title like "Internet Banking" is not very useful because it doesn't show which bank, whereas if the URL was shown it would be immediately clear which bank it is referring to. I know I could customize all my bookmark names, but it would be easier if I didn't have to make a custom bookmarks just for Einkbro. In other browsers like Cromite (mobile) and Ungoogled Chromium (desktop) the URL is always shown, so this problem does not exist.
