I think it would be useful to have a list in algebraic notation of the last few moves made in a particular game. Often I open a game I haven't seen in a while, and I don't remember what my plan or strategy was. I know I can click on "Game History" and click through the moves and then come back, but that takes forever (in the colloquial sense of the word "forever"😉.

Just go to analyze board and use the back arrow and then "reset all" when you remember what your plan was.
I use it on every game as it's also easier to see what your opponents last move was.
Thank you for all your suggestions, but they are a wee bit too complicated I think...Especially if you're looking at your games on a smartphone. If the moves were displayed in algebraic notation, all you'd have to do would be to scroll down to the white space in the bottom left and look at the last few moves, and bingo, no effort!
