The current version is 1.7. Since it took so long to get 1.7 approved, 1.8 was submitted to the App Store as soon as 1.7 was approved. Hopefully, that'll be out in the next few days. 1.9 is in development/testing right now (and it's pretty sweet).

May as well try out Norwegian as well.

About how long does approval take? There's another app I'm looking forward to an update for which has apparently been pending approval for a long time now.

Quick reminder: this update was submitted a week ago, immediately after the app became available. It contains basically none of the improvements and fixes basically none of the bugs mentioned in this thread.

So keep the requests and bug reports coming, and feel free to share them again!

On this page (page 13) of this thread, I can't get any posts to quote properly. I can go into any other thread in my bookmarks and quote all day long, but I can't quote anyone in this thread. It comes up blank.

I ran into it because I wanted to do this:

That happened to me! With a different thread though. pokeyman asked me these questions:

quote:

When you can't quote the post in the app, can you quote it in Safari?

Are there a couple of newlines in the post window, or is it completely blank?
but I couldn't get an answer, because that particular thread moved to a new page and it fixed itself. I was on 1.9 so I think it's an ongoing thing. Maybe you can answer (hopefully this reply doesn't move this thread to a new page :ohdear:)

Wow, shiny new interface is right. This looks great! Not sure if being able to copy specific post URL's was there before, but that's a really useful feature too if it wasn't.

1.8 just hit me and drat is that some hot UI action.

Love it, keep up the good work, voted 5, went hog wild, etc etc.

Can you make the "X Pages Remaining" notice darker than the "End of thread" notice? I keep missing the next page of a thread.

This is a rather minor gripe, but would you be able to make links open inside the app again? It's a (small) bother that they open in Safari, which has kept me to mostly using the old app.

Technically I'd say the new interface is less shiny, but I definitely think it's an improvement.

I'm on it. Both links to other posts/threads/forums and links to the outside world.

1.9 has a lot of crap jammed into it :/

No idea what's going on here. If I ever manage to reproduce it (or anyone else can reliably reproduce it) I'll get on it. What's getting me is that it's blank. I could see getting an alert popup, but just blank? Very odd.

It feels weird that I can no longer see the thread title when reading a thread. Especially if I'm accessing it from Bookmarks, there's just a huge blank space at the top.

Love the improvements to the app, not entirely sold on the UI for thread posts but its minor.

The issue regarding the Thread Title is intermittent. The first I've ever visited the thread was today and the thread title wasn't there. I then left the thread and returned and it was there.

Also, a very quick thank you. I spend more time on this app than viewing the forum through a browser! Your hard work is really appreciated.

I love the new app - I think I usw my ipad more with Awful than anything else. The only problem I have with the app now is that links to other threads seem to crash the whole app. I think someone else reported it from the previous version earlier in the thread.

Once again, thanks for a great app.

Love the new look. I think the highlight when you tap on a thread is still the old color, which doesn't match the new softer blue you're using everywhere ele.

Yeah, I'm getting the same problem using it on my iPad. Always empty for me whether I arrive via bookmarks or the forums list.

Just saw in a thread that a YouTube video was breaking the tables, which resulted in being able to scroll the window to the side like a millimeter. I have pictures, but the app crashes every time I try to post them and I'm not near a computer.

There's a 1.8.3 which I believe fixes that crashing. I don't know if pokeyman plans on pushes that update through to the AppStore or is planning to finalize 1.9.

It could also be a bit taller. It's probably the same size as it was before but now the table has a shadow which makes but seem smaller to me, and harder to hit.

Edit: oops quoting didn't work there. That was about the thing at the bottom that says how many pages are left.

Thank you so much for fullscreen thread view in landscape mode on the iPad! Loving it, and the dark theme isn't jarring now with the white sidebar hidden.

Thank you!

Not sure if this has been mentioned yet, but could you bring back the refresh button? Or add some way to refresh the current page? If I'm in a thread with a lot of images half the time the app chokes and loads about half of them before giving up. Before I could just refresh the page to get the rest, but now there's not really a convenient way to do that, unless I'm missing something.

Wasn't sure anybody would notice but it takes so little time to add them. If any are missing or break in future updates, please let me know.

Sorry about that. As a workaround, you can tap the "page x of y" button then hit "jump to page" immediately.

I didn't see this I'm the last 2 pages, but is two pane view for iPad in landscape going to come back? I miss it. I may be the only one though.

EDIT: aside from that, though, I love the new UI. My workaround is just to read in portrait.

Yup, bringing it back via an option, as you were certainly not the only one.
