Twitter videos suddenly open the browser for me too for some reason. First instinct is to blame Twitter for it, though. Videos in Awful always start muted too, and if a video is quoted it messes up swiping completely.

Always blame Twitter. They were messing about with it yet again recently.

I did change some logic around there so I'm sure I broke something, but I'm not sure what. Do either of you have "Mark posts on pages I've already seen in a different color" set to "no" in User Control Panel -> Edit Options?

+1 to marking that option “no” fixing things.

I marked it yes on my iPhone and it fixed the problem happening.

If it helps to know, the problem never occurs on my iPad, regardless of the setting.

A weird just started happened after downloading the latest version of the app (Awful 4.6 according to the settings page): When I click on a thread that has new posts, it’s opening at the top of the page where I left off, rather than right at the new posts.

For what it’s worth, it’s occurring both from the forum view and bookmarks page. I’ve gone through about 15-20 threads and it’s happened for all of them. Current iOS 13.6, iPhone 8.

EDIT: And after making this post, it also went back to the top of the page.

This is entirely my fuckup, and I'm 99% certain it's not the first time I've hosed it up. Fixed update is awaiting review.

What would be the feasibility of implementing webm support to the app? I occasionally see them posted and iirc VLC is one of the few apps on my phone that can process them. I’ve always found that a bit surprising as I’ve understood the format to be fairly popular. Is there something I might be missing as to why it doesn’t appear to have wider support?

Subjunctive is right on the money, I'll just chime in to add that I have no plans to do anything beyond whatever gets added to the web view and other system bits in iOS.

Click there and setting the option to "yes" fixed it for me and a few others in the thread for now

i just can’t figure out whether the app is putting people at the top of the page instead of the last unread post. Is there anyone at all who can tell me whether or not the awful app is putting people at the top of the page instead of the last unread post?

Not a big issue but if you tap “Your Posts” in a thread you have not posted in you get an error message



Hopefully just a matter of having a message box pop up saying “You have no posts in this thread” instead

Not an app issue cause it's happening on the website too but this thread is stuck on one unread post for me. Will posting fix it?…

Edit: it will and that post suddenly became visible ^
