Ratings and reviews

The only way you can view the games seems to be by searching for a specific position, which is not particularly functional. Based on the title and description of the game, I think we should be able to browse and view a library of games based on players. You can't even view all games with a certain opening, since it says the search would result in too many games. Too many for whom? I just want to view the game library that is taking space on my device. This is not useful for me.

Lack of ECO code search is really a fatal minus. I really don't see what the issue is with using the complete search header from Scid on the Go as it is clearly inspired from it, plus the position search (that Scid on the Go's search header did not have) ... Edit after dev's answer : there's no position search in scid on the go (inputing a position and searching the base for it) but a "current board search", which is not the same at all the latter being highly unpractical. If there is, where ?
