Since it involves a full app theme and not just posts, I have to crowbar it in with the existing infra I built that assumes only two themes. Plus my laptop no longer supports my monitors so I get to do all Awful coding on a tiny laptop screen.

Unfortunately I can't really use it like that without getting a fatiguied so I try to avoid it and just use my Windows desktop which can. I'll quit being a baby and give the theme a look real soon

Any chance we can get a toggle to change direction. (Or outright disable) deleting bookmarked threads? The difference between “swipe from right edge to left to go back to last viewed thread” and “swipe right to left to delete bookmark” is not a whole lot and I’ve probably deleted a dozen bookmarked threads only to remember what they were weeks after the fact when browsing for something else.

If my iPhone is my only Apple device, I don't really need most of these on because the iCloud backup also saves everything? Or is this data separate from the iCloud backup and needed if I perform a restore? I think you're looking for the general iPhone thread (https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?noseen=0&threadid=3664222&perpage=40), this thread is specifically for discussing the Awful forums browser for iOS.

I second this request re: disabling the swipe-to-delete bookmark behavior! Complementary feature request: add a Forward arrow at the top right of the bookmarks tab that returns you to the current thread, as another mechanism for performing the action currently only available with a swipe-right-edge gesture. This would better mirror the current return-to-thread-listing action which is activated by both a swipe-left-edge gesture and that top left Back arrow in the thread view. anthonypants posted:A service like that is literally designed to capture all of your network traffic.

They definitely removed the Adguard VPN based adblocker at least, which is a shame. Maybe others work, but that one was v popular. I'm not too sure what to do about adblocking in not-safari nowadays. Thankfully lots of apps use safari for their browser I guess, so content blockers work here and there.

anthonypants posted:For the one linked above, the first and second questions of the FAQ are regarding the installation of their custom root certificate. I was referring to the bad-acting apps that people who just want to use their phone might use, not stable geniuses literally MITMing themselves to strip the ads out of apps made by people bad enough to push apps with ads bad enough to even consider MITMing themselves over and then still using those apps. Even if there was a way to trust your phone again without a DFU after pulling a stunt like that, VPN ad-blockers are against the whole operating plan of iOS so is anyone surprised that things were happening to them. This should probably just head back to the iOS app thread. dont be mean to me fucked around with this message at 10:53 on Jan 24, 2018 |

When i try to delete old PMs in the app it’s not working. I hit edit, then the minus next to the pm, and the delete button slides out on the right. When i tap that it just slides shut and the PM doesn’t get deleted.

If you hit edit on a post, and then back out and try to quote or post instead, the app still tries to edit and the top right corner says “save”Fedule posted:Oh boy is this bug still around? It’s a doozy, especially, say, hypothetically, if you happen to be able to edit anyone’s posts and aren’t quite used to the button placement yet and occasionally hit that instead of quoting some good post or other. Yup. I’m on iPhone 7 Plus, using the bug to not quote your post right now. Billzasilver fucked around with this message at 21:59 on Jan 26, 2018 |

Sometimes the app crashes when I try to quote someone but for the life of me I can't figure out how to reproduce it. Guess I'm just reporting it as it's been happening more frequently, I'll let you know if I figure out how to reproduce it. It seems to sometimes happen if I type something, go back a page and quote someone. (On iPhone 8 latest version)

Crime on a Dime posted:Feature / option request: please allow disable of auto TIMG Someday! The_Doctor posted:I’m getting double bookmarks! Hoping this is fixed in the next version. By chance did you try tapping each of them? I bet at least one of them didn't end up loading the represented thread. yaffle posted:I've had problems before (I couldn't log in). Then I went to Hong Kong and everything was fine. Now I'm back in china, and although I seem to be logged in I can't refresh the forums or see the content of any forum (just a blank page). On a desktop everything is fine, but ever since the DNS attacks a few months ago if you log in from china (even through a VPN) you have to complete a captcha. I think the problems I'm having have to do with the app not being able to use/see/load/display the captcha, if you see what I mean. Is there any way around this or hope for a fix? I suspect you're right about there being some step you need to complete and the app isn't detecting that and letting you do it. I have some hope for a fix but it's not a very high one; I think it might be hard for me to reliably reproduce. It's definitely on the list though. Diabolik900 posted:I had no idea. I really wish the App Store/Testflight handled situations like this where a build never goes through beta releases more smoothly. I skip TestFlight when it's a quick fix like that, but I don't need to do that. It's partly out of laziness and partly because I don't just want TestFlight to be "I get new Awful versions 12 hours sooner than everyone else". I'll try to still push betas even for small things though. Billzasilver posted:Edit: something I just ran into. I’m on iPhone 7 Plus. Is there an option to make Instagram links open in the instagram app? It always opens in the awful app browser, and closest I could find was to share on Facebook or open in chrome.

A lot of people find it confusing though, so I know we need to figure something out.

Hey I've done some  tweaks to some of the app icons here. They were incorrectly scaled before resulting in some fringing artifacts wherever 2 colours would meet. That's been fixed along with some tiny changes to  and  . I've also made some dark backdrop versions of  and the gold icon.Finally, the list icons for larger devices has been redrawn as there was an error in there. Can someone please drop these into the app? Thanks!
