Best part about the new icon set: it feels like I’m giving a cat a little tiny high five with my thumb every time I open the app.
Hi there! Seems like the app theme doesn’t switch automatically when device theme switches between light/dark mode (when settings for theme is set to device theme).
Yes the keyboard appears now. Thank you :)
Changelog: August 1st
Build 2023.08.01.01.14
- Added the ability to create "groups" on the Communities tab. This is a WIP and you cannot delete or edit yet. I'm also open to a better name for this feature!
- Pushed the creation of SDAnimatedImage to a background thread to alleviate some of the UI blocking that was causing animations to stutter. I'm still not 100% happy with this and will be revisiting in the future.
In terms of colours, maybe a darker blue akin to iOS’ default would be nice
I couldn’t find this mentioned elsewhere, but when I go to view all my comments in the profile page, it comes up blank. Viewing my posts works fine.
I’m on the latest version of iOS 16, using an iPhone 12 Mini. Just a couple things I’ve noticed in the latest build:
-
I can upvote and downvote comments now, but there is a weird delay. I get the haptic feedback, but the vote does not appear until I start scrolling away.
-
When clicking on the text of a post in standard view, nothing happens. Might be nice to have that open up the post in the same way as if you clicked the title.
-
When I upvote/downvote a post with a link, and it makes it as “read.” Something odd happens. All of the preview text for the link disappears.
Those are the only new bugs I’ve noticed so far. Keep up the great work!
Seems like the line spacing is a bit out of whack, definitely not as condensed as it should be (especially obvious in comments).
Maybe this is a stupid question, but what is a “parse flair”? I can’t quite figure it out from turning the setting on and off.
steve! loving the app so far man. couple questions -
-
will you be adding screen swipe to go forward at any point?
-
i’m having the same bug that another user mentioned where my saved/bookmarked posts aren’t showing up; it sounds like you aren’t able to reproduce this at this time but just wanted to give a heads up!
thanks again and looking forward to watching this all continue to grow!
Comments now work in the profile! Nice.
If I may make a feature request: I think it would be nice to be able to sort comments inside threads.
Yep, that’s on the list! I’m gonna get the post composer to a state where I’m happy and then go back over the long list of things like that, that I want to improve before v1 hits the store.
Changes: July 24th
Build: 2023.07.24.23.14
- Added the Inbox.
- Added posts, communities, users, and URL search.
- Added option to hide tab bar titles.
- Added an option to hide the inbox notification badge.
- Added an option to hide the footer/actions on comments.
- Moved bookmarks to the account screen.
- Increased the size of the comment indicators.
- Refresh the profile screen whenever it’s viewed.
- Removed the large header from communities and inbox for consistency.
- Fixed missing item separators on the profile view.
- Fixed issue where tapping the search tab on the search screen crashed the app.
Note: *The inbox view will be improved tomorrow. It's currently not possible to tap through from there to posts/comments. I'll be fixing this and improving the view with information about what post is being replied to, as well as adding an empty state.
In the meantime, please let me know if you encounter any issues with the Inbox.*
I like the ability to remove the comment actions. But is there a way to show whether I’ve already upvoted/downvoted a comment even without the footer?
Search is now available in the latest build. Please let me know if you encounter any issues.
Spent a few minutes running some random searches. Seemed to work well on this end!
Still needs swipe to upvote and reply within posts.
Not sure if you are receiving the crash reports as I don’t see the usual Apple’s crash prompt but scrolling up and down in this mega thread a few time would crash the app.
Also, scrolling fast would show blank spots as well.
Thanks for the report, I’ve been able to replicate the issue and I’m working on a fix.
Changes July 27th
build 2023.07.27.16.16
- Added the ability to select a community from the post composer.
- Added a FAB to the home screen to create a post.
- Added the ability to mark a post as NSFW.
- Added loading indicator when creating a post or comment.
- Improved the quality of images uploaded. May need to reassess if servers deem them too large.
- Wrapped the Markdown accessories in a scrollview for smaller devices and future buttons.
- Shrunk the link preview if there’s no image found.
- Removed the preview from the comment composer (it may come back, I’m still deciding if I like it or not).
- Turned the fullscreen swipe off by default. I don’t like that it was changing the iOS animations due to the pan gesture handler, but the option still remains.
Any feedback on the post composer is welcomed
