QoL: Rename the Windows shortcut from MongoDBCompass to MongoDB Compass
I often search Compass (without MongoDB) on Windows Search and it does not show up because its written as MongoDBCompass instead of MongoDB Compass.
It would be a nice QoL improvement.2 votes -

Display collection name and namespace on separate lines
If you have a longish DB/namespace name, the labels on the tabs become pretty useless, as all they say is "Documents (verylongdbnamewhichiknowalready)" and there's no room for the name of the collection.
This forces me to navigate through tabs to find the collection I was querying.
I feel that the "Documents" or whatever main label is on the tabs can be communicated via the tab icon only.The name of the namespace could either be hidden entirely and shown only on the tab body, or shown on a separate line from the collection name.

Remember collection view mode selected or add an option to save default
Currently, after you switch to table mode in a collections tab, compass won't remember that option when you open a new collection tab. Being table mode user 99% of the time, it would be really useful to remember last mode selected when opening a new tab, or be able to define the default view mode

Possibility to have _id field with new ObjectId added to each array element automatically
Hi,
I thought it would be a good idea to have the option to have an array automatically add an _id field with new ObjectId per element if its an array of object.
In our use cases, we mostly update/delete items by their _id.
In the case where we want to do a bulk $push or something similar, there are currently no way of generating the _id's except looping through our array and generating the ids beforehand which is not ideal.
Another option would be to be able to use an update operator to generate a new ObjectId.
For example:

Screen reader support
Hello,
Visually impaired users rely on a screenreader to have information read by a speech synthesizer or displayed on a braille display. Popular screen readers are VoiceOver on Mac OS as well as JAWS and NVDA on Windows or Orca on Linux Desktop.
Currently, a screen reader isn't able to work properly with MongoDB Compass.6 votes -
Enable toggling for boolean properties
The annoying thing for me is my web applications are heaviley dependant on Database View content.
in MongoDB Compass it quickly becomes a time waste to manually click a boolean property and change "false" to "true".
Please add a small toggle box button next to Boolean values.
Thanks, Carl.

Allow for safe hyperlinking of URIs in documents
If a document contains a well-formatted (and sanitised) URI, then hovering over it should display a preview of the resource it links to (perhaps an image in s3) or the option to click through to it using the OS standard browser.

CTRL+F in results
Implement a CTRF+F function to allow "text search" in results page (like in a Browser)
example : In a collection, I use "Filter" field to search document and compass returns 15 documents. I hit CTRL+F and I can search a field name or a value and navigate between.

Keyboard shortcut to change DB/Collection
It would be nice to have a Cmd/Ctrl + P or Cmd/Ctrl + K shortcut like in VS Code or Slack to quickly switch to a different collection or database without having to click around as much.

Let detach mongoh terminal/console
In case we have two monitors, I think is valuable detach the mongoh terminal/console in one explicit window to move it to other monitor. Of course, the option to apply the inverse should be available too.
Thanks for your understanding.

Compass for IOS and Android
Hello,
It would be great if there was an app for MongoDB Compass on IOS and Android. This would allow people on the go to access their database quickly and easily.
On IOS, there are already applications for MongoDB, but they are paid, and not official.I hope many of you will approve of this idea! (I need it 😄)
Have a nice day,

Add an option to visualize raw json query plans
It should be possible to import a raw execution plan generated with .explain(), and have it visualized in Compass!
Why - so we as developers don't need to read the JSON manually.
This would be very usefull when debugging slow queries using the aggregation framework.

Remove background animation during connection
For security reasons, MongoDB Compass is running on machines in a Network Zone we connect from our own computers via RDP protocol.
During connection time, MongoDB Compass displays a background animation which consumes huge network bandwidth and if for any reason, network between local and remote is bad, the RDP screen finally freezes and the only choice is to interrupt the connections (between local to Network Zone which breaks the one between Compass and our MongoDB servers).
Can you remove this animation or put an option to remove it please ?2 votes -
_id field listed first
The _id field is not always visible when browsing through the data, because of the sorting. It would be great if _id is always visible by ensuring it is listed first.

mongosh should be its own tab at the top with output options
I hate how mongosh is at the bottom. It makes it rather hard to see the results as it involves lots of scrolling, I end up having to write a js file and using
mongoshin the terminal.
It would be good if it was it's own tab at the top and give options to view the output differently.
The best example I can give is how the robo3t does it. When the data can't be viewed as a tree or table, it just outputs it in text mode.Something like this is super handy for developers and makes it…

Respect custom roles/Specific Privileges
Currently Compass does not respect collection privileges properly. If you limit access to a particular collection in a DBuser assigned role or specific privileges it shows you no collections.
I have confirmed this with customer support as demonstrated in the file attached.
This is very strange to me, and I don't know why this fairly simple functionality isn't there.

Maintain collapse state when refreshing
Currently, if you toggled open two or three children and you click the refresh button, it collapses everything back to the root document. If you are developing a feature that edits two or three children deep, every time you test something you must refresh and open those children again. I think this is similar to https://feedback.mongodb.com/forums/924283-compass/suggestions/40564825-remember-the-expanded-state-of-object-when-coming but is focused on refreshing the same collection rather than tabs.
