v0.10.6 Release

iOS:

Android:

Hello everyone! We heard you about the the full height preview issues. Just some context we were trying to fix some scroll jittery issues on the card view feed and one approach was limiting the preview height however turns out that’s a desired feature so we’re going to re approach the problem so we can keep full height images in the preview.

Change log

  • Bring back full height preview in card view
  • Fixed iOS photo orientation for uploads
  • Added horizontal scroll to post title in navbar like RIF had
  • Accessibility enhancement for upvote/downvote
  • Small bug fixes

What’s coming

  • Comment Style customizations
  • Push notifications - we’re gonna balance this and take our time on our approach as we want to maintain privacy focused permissions.
  • Ultra compact view. Really we will be adding a 3rd view type so we will have card, list, and compact. The current compact view will become list

    Thanks for your work on this app, really enjoying it so far. I know alot of people wanted full height image previews back, but I personally hate it. Is there a way to disable it?

      We had a lot of discussion about this feature among the devs and full height definitely gets much more approval. If you can give some specific issues that the full height gives you, we can see if there’s a way to solve them.

        I think full height images results in less density of posts on each screen and too much scrolling. It’s annoying to scroll past extra long images that I wouldn’t have clicked on in the first place. Any portrait pictures or phone screenshots take more than a full screen to get past when you factor the header and footer. It just feels like there needs to be a middle ground between compact view (can’t see enough of an image) and full view (scrolling past huge images that take up your whole screen). Thanks for coming to my Ted talk.

          Yes, there’s still scope for improvement here. Once we’ve got some of the other issues with posts resolved we will be looking at this. In the meantime, keep working that thumb 😀

      Phew, that was a close one! I almost went to touch grass, thanks for listening to your users and for the quick fix, devs!

    I was annoyed by the image height fix, but not annoyed enough to complain at you about it because I’ve seen how hard you’re working and there are more important things in life. That said, absolutely love that you listened to people on this! The full preview is a major selling point over some other apps, imo.

    With notifications, if push will take a while (whatever, I don’t like using those anyway) is there any chance we’ll see some kind of indicator on the bell icon before then or will both of those be coming at the same time? It’s a bit weird having to just keep checking randomly to see if there’s anything there. Not a dealbreaker, I’m just curious about the plan :)

    Big thanks as per usual!

    Posts I have made aren’t being displayed on profile page… Comments are visible, but posts do not, although the counter for posts, shows the correct number…??

    They are visible in other apps… (Show read posts is enabled)

    Anyone else have the same issue??

    Edit: Uninstalled & reinstalled the app, still not showing Posts I have made…🤷🏻‍♂️

      Here’s what I see when I look at your profile. Do you still not see these posts?

        All I see is a message saying ‘there are no posts’… which isn’t the case, when viewing comments…I don’t have this issue when viewing my user page in other apps…🤷🏻‍♂️ Thank you for checking, its a strange one…

        Edit: Just checked your user page, says you have 10posts, I don’t see any though, just the same message as I see when viewing mine… Are you running the playstore version the app? Thanks again 👍🏼

          That’s very strange, thanks for letting us know. Could you raise this as an issue in GitHub? You could include a link to this post to give a little more background.

              Yes, if you’re not comfortable with that, I can raise an issue for you, just let me know.

                Well this is odd!..I can now see all of my posts, albeit in reverse order, whilst being sorted by new… I also can see all of your posts now, also not being affected by order preference…I’ve no idea why this suddenly changed… I will keep an eye on it, & also if anyone else displays a similar issue, & if it persists, even intermittently I’ll setup an account on GitHub, & raise an issue…

                I’m sorry if this seems like a waste of your time, I’m at a loss, as to why they are now visible… happy that they are though… Thanks👍🏼

                  Ahh, maybe some weird problem with the instance. I hope it’s okay from now on! If not, do let us know.

      I had this happen when I had selected to not show read posts, but sounds like you have already checked that. Perhaps the profile setting change has not quite gone into affect yet.

        I haven’t actually changed anything, I just checked to make sure the, show read posts was still enabled…I may well log out, & reinstall the app, to see if that has any effect… Thanks for your input👍🏼

    Would you look at that? More free stuff.

    Your app looks the best and has great functionality among the few that I’ve tried. One comment compactness feature that I miss is ability to show upvote/downvote/reply row of a comment on tap, which is otherwise hidden. This compresses the comment list even further. I saw this feature on Joey.

    I have some Google Play credits? Can I send them via some donate button inside the app? (Maybe in the next update)

    Definitely the best app I’ve used and loving it, thanks for your amazing work!

    I don’t know if I’m missing something but I can’t see a way to increase the font size for comments?
