This update is focused on improving the quality of the app and implementing some configurability for the app (I'm not Apple ;)).

Changes so far:

  • Added the ability to add images to posts or comments (this post was made using Summit!)
  • Fixed a bug where you couldnt select text from the comment you are replying to.
  • Add automatic content detection specifically for images (I will need to add it for other file types in the future). This means posts that link to an image should automatically show up as images. Previously the app relied on Lemmy to tell it when something was an image.
  • Fix a rare crash
  • Add card and compact layouts
  • Add settings screen
  • Add setting to adjust post font size
  • Add setting to put the image on the left or right
  • Add ability to block a user/community from a post. Will add ability to block a user from a comment in the next release. This release is big enough as is.
  • Fixed a bug where pressing back while in the community browser would not work

Update

I'm working on something huge. I'll waiting until I'm close to completing it before announcing it just so I don't give users false hope.

Update 2

Sneak peak: https://youtube.com/shorts/yitAj2kqZlU?feature=share

Update 3

Update should be ready soon. Preparing for release now...

Update 4

Found some bugs during testing. Will be bumping it another version.

Update 5

Submitted another release.

Update 6

Had to update again. I noticed a bug where you couldn't edit comments. Apparently this has been broken for a while.

Update 7

App has been in review for 18 hours. At the point I can't really give an estimate of how long an update will take to go live. I can only hope it will go live soon.

Update 8

App has been in review for 3 days now. I think at this point it's easy to assume that this update has somehow triggered Google to manually review my app. Hopefully this won't take too long. From searching online there are horror stories of this taking up to a month during the pandemic. It seems to usually take at most a week otherwise.

Do you have a Github.com account? Google play update is getting late.

[โ€“] idunnololz 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

v0.1.14 is a WIP (Work In Progress). This version is not yet available. Even if I had github, I would not release a new version until it is fully ready for release.

Just installed the app. So far, it is a good experience. Keep up the good work, and I think I might be looking at the replacement Boost Reddit.

Thank you! I have a very special update coming. Not sure how long it will take but it is going to be big.
