As we step into the new year the steemit community can only get better as great platforms like Steemauto step up their game daily to make the steem planet a better home for authors and curators.

Recently @mahdiyari came up with a feature for steemauto called "Claim Rewards Automatically Feature" it helps you claim you steem reward automatically.

Usually you should redeem your steemit author and curation rewards by clicking on a button in your wallet in steemit.com

With this new feature, you don't need to frequent your wallet from time to time just to check if your rewards are due to claim. All you need do is configure your steemauto account and it automatically claim them for you. This system scans your steemit account every 5 minutes and transfers your rewards to your balance without you breaking a sweat.

But it doesn't end at just claiming the rewards what about helping use trade them automatically, powering-up or even transferring the rewards to someone else.

Few extra features I will like to suggest to the developers of this great work includes,

1. Automatic transfer reward feature. This feature should be able to transfer a specified amount of funds to a specific user after the steemauto's system help you claim a reward. All you have to do is configure the system and set the amount of funds to b transferred, time, and the user it should be transferred to. With this feature, I don't need to come online to claim my reward and then transfer it to another user all I need do is configure the system setting the amount I want transferred to a particular user, the time I want it done and then I get back to my regular day job and when the reward is due the system claims the reward for me and also makes the transaction.

2. Automatic trade reward Feature.
This feature should be able to help a users trade the claimed SBD for steem at a fixed price in the smeemit market. For instance I want to covert the SBD i will get as reward for steem but I won't be readily available when the post will payout I can just configure the steemauto system to help me trade the SBD in the steemit market and then convert it to steem.

3. Automatic Power-up Feature
This feature should be able to help a users trade the claimed SBD for steem at a fixed price in the smeemit market then automatically convert the steems for steem power thereby powering-up the users account. For instance I want to power up all the SBD I will receive as authors reward for a particular post that I forgot to set the payout at "power up 100%", all I need do is configure the amount of SBD I want to trade in the steem market, at what price I want it sold and if the price is favorable by the market, the SBD gets sold and then the steemauto system also using the configuration I have put in place initially will use some amount of steem I bought from the market to power-up my account.

If this features are interated the steemauto's dashboard may look like the screenshot below.

This I believe will go a long way helping @mahdiyari achieve the dream of creating an automated way of running operations on the steem blockchain.
