When you apply one or more filters in the Feed, your search results are narrowed based on the selected criteria such as book title, author, category, distance, or Prime membership. This helps you find specific listings faster when you want to swap books nearby or exchange books nearby.
However, there may be times when you want to remove all applied filters and start fresh. Pasaj makes this process simple and visible.
How to Know Filters Are Active
There are two clear indicators that filters are currently affecting your results:
Filter Icon Badge
After applying any filter, the Filter icon located at the top right corner of the Feed will display a red badge 
This badge indicates that at least one filter is active and impacting the books shown in your Feed.
Sticky Filter Banner
At the top of the page, you will see a sticky banner that says:
Results shown match your filters
On the right side of this banner, there is a Reset button.
This banner remains visible while filters are active, making it clear that your results are not showing all available listings.
How to Reset Filters
If you want to remove all applied filters and return to default settings:
- Locate the sticky banner at the top of the Feed.
- Tap the Reset button on the right side of the banner.
Once tapped, all active filters will be removed immediately. The Feed will refresh and display results based on default values, allowing you to explore more listings and find books nearby without restrictions.
Resetting filters is useful when you want to broaden your search scope, discover new book exchange opportunities, or restart your search from scratch.
