Just updated the app. I might be the only person in the world to use the "volume buttons to scroll" feature, but it is now broken. If I try from the main forums or inside a forum, the app crashes; inside a thread it just adjusts my system volume. I'll send a crash report here after I post this so maybe that'll help?

While we're asking for dumb features, can we make swipe right go to the next page? Got my XBOXHUGE 2XL and it's awkward making it down to the next page button 1 handed.

Nevermind, I'm a big dummy. I forgot there was a pull-for-next setting that I disabled ages ago and somehow glossed over it when I was looking for a "next page" gesture. Thanks Team Barry!

Weird,that's definitely broken somehow. Probably something real silly

Yeah that's gonna get done - it wasn't in the update because we just needed to push out a fix for the connection stuff

Is it happening on every thread or just ones with a lot of images or tweets? And does turning embedding off help? If you have a page it happens on that would help (unless it's all of them)

The last update only really changed network stuff, shouldn't have affected the app in general. The only time I've seen weird scrolling (where it's really jumpy and scrolls too much) is in testing when some JavaScript is playing up

Doesn't seem to matter if there are embeds or images or not. I notice it on most pages (for instance, I went to 110 of this thread and scrolling was jumpy on that pafe.)

Is anyone else seeing this? It might be worth clearing your app data (might want to export your settings first) and see if it behaves

As far as I can tell it removes the middle level forum from the top.

The SA Forums
Inspect Your Gadgets
Awful .apk

Inspect Your Gadgets will disappear causing the whole menu to jump up one. I go for bookmarks and hit search instead at least close to half the time.

Ohhhh the hierarchy in the drawer menu. Yeah that's on the list, it's... awkward to fix for a few reasons :v:

I'll see if I can wrangle something a bit more stable, no promises though - a lot of the code is interconnected in exciting ways, and unraveling that takes time away from other features

Speaking of - has anyone on the beta used the Imgur stuff yet? Any thoughts?

Tried clearing app data to no effect :/.

The jumpy scroll will sometimes interpret a swipe from bottom to top as a scroll up too for some reason, so I'll reverse directions as I'm trying too go down a thread.

Hey, love the app, but is there a function for auto playing gifs? I can't seem to find it in my settings. It's not even a problem for actual animated gifs but stationary images that are saved in gif format. Stuff like the comic strip megathread becomes very tedious to read. :(

Any chance of a button for each comment that scrolls you directly to the top of the next comment? Would be handy for skipping quote blocks of giant posts.

Haven't read the thread, sorry if this is a duplicate request.

Was hoping to do it in app because if I go to it in a browser it Auto opens the app. I'm not good at these things.

If you go to Awful in your device's app settings and clear the defaults, it shouldn't automatically open SA urls in the app

(I couldn't get a browser to do that anyway, they all wanted to handle it themselves, but hey. You can share any SA url to the app if you want to use that to open it though)

I have a half-done LC/rap sheet somewhere, I got bored when I hit the "write some html to make it look half decent" stage though

You can search for all their posts, which would have to go through the search tool anyway. I was mostly thinking about being able to see their rap sheet in there, with the LC being a more general view

I just noticed how the triple bar button in the top left morphs into an arrow by rearranging itself. I keep pulling the slide right menu out real slow to watch it animate in slow motion. That's such a cute detail :kimchi:

Probably doable, depends how easy they make it - if you load the page with a single pic they add a "here's another funny image" right? Maybe their API holds the secrets

What? Like an "I have no self control" mode or something?

Cancelling dialogs with the back button is standard behaviour to. It's safer this way
