Adding tooltips to icons

[PhilC813]

Hello! Just discovered your app after giving Feedbin a try. It's super minimalist and well designed; loving it so far, knowing that it's still the early days.

I was wondering if you could consider adding tooltips (long press description) to the different icons across the app. It is helpful for new users who may not yet be familiar with the icons (other than the obvious "star" and "share").

Thank you!

hey @Philippe-Choquette - thanks for checking out the app. I'll take a look. I generally want to avoid popups since they can disrupt the UI, but I hear you about the unfamiliar icons and I've also seen how Google Photos for instance uses popups on long press.

Thank you for considering this! I've also just noticed that the Feedbin website uses tooltips too; you can probably reuse the same text with the icons if you ever decide to implement.

I have a change up for this (#426) that I'll include in the next release. Here's a demo of what it looks like. The tooltip may appear beneath to toolbar on smaller screens.

That's awesome thanks! And it doesn't burden the UI!
