Hey Everyone!

I’m submitting a small update (1.0.7) to the App Store today that changes the following:

  • Added new theme: Sky
  • Added an option to hide or show usernames on the feed.
  • Bookmarks no longer hide read posts.
  • Fixed format bar on comments covering text.

Apologies for the delay on getting an update out to you all, hopefully I’m fully recovered from being sick and ready to get some more stuff out to you all soon.

I’m still working on messaging which will hopefully be in 1.1 soon. After that, priority will be iPad with smaller patches for bug fixes in between.

Thank you so much for the support and welfare checks while I was gone. I really appreciate you all ❤️

Sooo looks like the Sky theme might break the app. Bean crashed when I selected the theme, and I can't reopen. Posting this from my desktop.

I'm on iOS 17.0.

Same problem. iOS 17.0 as well

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Same here, and I’m on 17.0.1.

[–] higgsone 1 points 1 year ago

Same here. Had to reinstall the app

[–] steve228uk 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Very strange! I’ve not been able to replicate this from by debug build but will try with the App Store build.

Does a reinstall fix the app for you?

[–] steve228uk 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I’ve been able to replicate it with the App Store build. Looking into why now.

[–] orangeNgreen 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Glad you were able to replicate it. Let us know what you find. If I don’t have delete the app and re-do all of my settings, that’d be preferred. But I’ll do it if it will help with your troubleshooting.

[–] steve228uk 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Update being submitted now! Sorry about the hassle.

[–] orangeNgreen 1 points 1 year ago

No hassle. Thanks for all you do!

[–] orangeNgreen 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Good question. I just picked up an iPhone 15 Pro, and setting that up as we speak. I'll test it out on there once setup is complete.

[–] steve228uk 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I do want to know what you think of the 15 Pro, what colour you got and what you’re gonna use the action button for!

[–] orangeNgreen 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

So far:

  • I miss the size of my 12 Mini. My hands are too small for this thing.
  • The camera is awesome!
  • Ignoring that I like smaller phones, the phone does feel luxurious in the hand. I like the titanium, and I’m debating not covering it up with a case.
  • I got the natural titanium.
  • I currently have the action button set to flashlight. But I might change it. I tend to use that more than any of the other options, especially when walking dogs at night.
[–] steve228uk 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Love the look of that natural titanium, I’m very envious!

I also am totally with you, even my standard 12 is too big for me and I have to use a popsocket to be able to hold it properly 😅

[–] orangeNgreen 1 points 1 year ago

Yep, I had an OhSnap on my 12 Mini 😂

I’m using the Torras OStand case on my 15 Pro, which has a ring that pulls out from the case. Still debating if that’s doing the trick for me.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Glad to see you back!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

We missed you <3

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Looks like 1.0.7 has hit the App Store!

[–] orangeNgreen 1 points 1 year ago

Woohoo! Welcome back Steve.

[–] orangeNgreen 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

1.0.8 is live in the App Store, and fixed the crashing issue. Loving the Sky theme!

[–] steve228uk 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Glad to hear it! Thanks for your patience 😊

[–] orangeNgreen 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Just one minor thing I noticed on Sky: The upvote/downvote colors are the same. When swiping, they are both dark blue. And it’s hard to tell if you’ve upvoted or downvoted something. Not a huge issue though. Still my favorite theme at the moment.

[–] steve228uk 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oh yeah, that’s not great! I thought the monotone looked better than different colours but I think some different shades will work better.

I’ll fix in the next update along with some tweaks to the comment composer because some issues have arisen there too.

[–] orangeNgreen 2 points 1 year ago

Don’t get me wrong. I’m still rocking the theme. It was just a thought I had.
