This is likely an iOS 9 thing, but I noticed the app crashes when hitting the 1password icon to login.

Yeah I will be demanding a refund if a link's long-press menu, official Share Sheet or not, stops showing its URL <:mad:>

(Also it'd be nice if the long-press menu regained the "open" button it used to have, to immediately open the URL in the Awful Browser without having to close the menu and then re-click on the possibly-small link itself)

I can't use anything but the default forum themes on my iPad; dark mode works but everything else does not. Is this a known bug?

iPad Mini 3 with iOS 8.4.1, not seeing any of the horizontal scrolling problems. Updated the app and its running fine. :confused:

iPad 4, iOS 9, and I can't reproduce either. For reference, both my text scale in the app and in Settings is default.

Ah ok, cool. Probably falls apart on iPhone landscape, but it's something to go on at least!

On the 6+, with hide sidebar in landscape enabled, start playing a YouTube video in portrait, and rotate to landscape. Sidebar appears and video disappears. I'm on the latest beta.

I'ma need to a dedicated iPhone 6+ update at this rate. I'll add this to the list.

david_a posted:

V3.5, iPad, landscape orientation: the forum thread is now too wide and scrolls horizontally. Portrait orientation does not scroll. Hiding/reshowing the sidebar does not fix it. Killing the app does not fix it.

I'll take a look, I've seen this too. My first guess is it's related to the (now worthless) iOS 9 beta 4 zoomed-out fix. Serves me right for trying to make stuff work on beta OSes.

Imgur pics and maybe others are not loading at all for me.

I don't have an explanation for this one. When it's busted in Awful, does it work in Safari?

Smol posted:

Sometimes this happens on the iPad. I don't really know what triggers it, but it hasn't happened to me on the iPhone. Restarting the app fixes it.



:wtc: that's a new one to me. When it happens, is it immediately after you launch (or switch to) Awful? Or after rotating your device?

Atari Stockholder posted:

I've been getting that in other apps too on iOS 9, including Safari. Based on that, I'm guessing there isn't much I can do in Awful to help, but I'll keep an eye out.

There was an issue here that I think I fixed in the latest update. Do you even get the option to use other themes? Or does it not work when you pick a non-default them? If you go to e.g. YOSPOS do you see the YOSPOS themes there?

I wish I had something clever to say.
To the person having issues with Imgur loading, is it only awful? Does the site work properly on safari? Sometimes there's an issue where Imgur pics won't load in Alien Blue and then the site won't work in safari either. A reboot fixes it, don't know what causes it though sadly. To chime in I have an iPad Air 2 and have the text width issue as well in landscape mode.

I'll show you... a nightmare...
Reinstalling over the weekend fixed the app on my iPad air2. Now I'm getting this weird thing where the text always overflows of the page when in landscape and having the side bar active. If I turn it to hide, everything seems to work fine though.

I see the YOSPOS green theme in YOSPOS, but not any of the other ones. The weird thing is that this started happening immediately after the upgrade- for some reason the app kept crashing on launch, so I did an uninstall and reinstall. That's when this problem started.

Thanks. Assuming you're using the default font size, it looks like the same amount of text is rendered on the 6+ as on my 5s, just larger. Good to know.

It happens while using the app normally. Rotating the device might be involved, but I'm not 100% sure.

Same here on an iPhone 6 on iOS 8. But the bookmarks page has always been like that for me. I think...

Most YouTube videos or pages with several gifs/YouTubes are crashing the app for me. Also having the crash when viewing YouTube videos in landscape on the rare occasion I can get them launched.

I am having an issue on my iPhone where I keep getting kicked to the App Store, as if I had clicked on an ad for candy crush or some poo poo. It started after I clicked a link through to a manga scan site. I definitely didn't click any ads on purpose. Any way to clear the app's cache short of deleting it entirely?

no manual way to delete the cache, just uninstall and reinstall. You can also set Safari as the default browser as well.

You are correct it seems. I rarely had issues with Awful, so I didn't think to log out only.

It's probably that gif causing Awful to get terminated by the system for using too much memory. I wonder if there's something we can do to prevent that.

We don't know the image size until we start to retrieve it. I've looked at doing stuff like this, but it requires really invasively inserting ourselves into the HTTP transaction chain.
