Mr. Fix It posted:that's a forums bug, not an app bug Correct, although it is still possible to add someone to the ignore list using a different method than the app uses, if it isn't a kind of mod.

Is Awful known to be a battery hog? Whenever I notice that my battery is low after a couple hours of idle scrolling and I pull up the usage statistics, I always see Awful on top of the chart even when I’m spending about as much time doomscrolling on Twitter as I am reading equally cynical threads in CSPAM.

Got logged out after using the new TestFlight version of Awful last night, it crashed when I logged in, and then worked okay the second login attempt except that it forgot all my settings besides the app icon ( 4ever). Anyway I then (re?)discovered that the forum-specific themes page is unusable when a dark theme is on: On the plus side, the new smart quote rendering seems fixed! And in the time that I've been using the new version, I also haven't seen the scroll thumbs invisiblize yet , thanks devs!

Cat Hassler posted:If you tap on an ignored user’s username in a post to bring up their profile there’s an Unignore option However, you can't do this right after (accidentally) ignoring someone, you have to reload the page or go to a new page. It also doesn't work if you expand an ignored post and click on their username there - you have to do it on an ignored post.

Where did this horizontal scroll bar at the bottom come from lately, and how do i turn it off? It's making my left handed thumb scrolling a pain in the rear end because it's moving everything to the left.

Did someone post something that is stretching out the page? I’m not sure what behavior is supposed to be, there’s not going to be a turn off for it.

I used to have the same problem with quotes causing it on my old phone, one temporary solution is to pinch zoom out which fixes it but shrinks the page slightly.

nrook posted:For what it’s worth, as I mentioned in the QCS thread, you can always ignore users with the website by clicking the ignore button under their post. It works there, even if you have a mod on your ignore list. Not anymore, just tried it. Would be great if the app could have its own ignore feature. I may look into working on something like that later this year. e: Clarification: It's not possible anymore to ignore mods/IKs through the site. It used to be possible.

Shnakepup posted:Another minor request: would it be possible to have a "Last Page" jump feature? Like, when you tap the Page number at the bottom of a thread and you get that little nav pop-up? For me, jumping to the last post in a thread never seemed particularly useful, because usually I prefer to see the last couple posts (or couple dozen) in a thread for context. I rarely use "Last Post" for it's actual, intended use...instead I either tap Last Post then immediately tap the top of the screen to scroll to the top on the page, or I just manually select the last page of the thread. spanky the dolphin posted:That’s always seemed strange to me too. The long press menu on a thread or bookmark has a last page button in case you didn’t know about that, so you could do what you want that way. Fair point! I'll add it to the list. buglord posted:Hi all. I’ve had this problem for years on the app but never got around to complaining until today, but is there a way to fix double bookmarked threads? The only way to fix is is by deleting one bookmark, but then upon refreshing it will have deleted both. Then I have to find the thread, bookmark it again, and hope it only has one entry on my bookmarks list. You are not the only one to be afflicted by this, but I haven't seen it myself and don't have any great theories for what's going on. But I'll +1 it on the list! The bit about threads you've created seems like a good clue. Crime on a Dime posted:YouTube links with time stamp seem to play from the start I've seen some that work so there's something shifty going on here, I'll add it to the list. DigitalRaven posted:Just got a heads-up that the Awful app beta that’s on TestFlight has expired. Anytime this happens, if you see the equivalent version available in the App Store, it should be safe to install it from the App Store. And by "safe" I mean it should keep all your data etc. If the version is different, I've forgotten to release something Mr. Fix It posted:the login times out eventually, and, if i recall correctly, stuff like favorite forums gets wiped on logout. True. "Log out" (manually or automatically) doubles as "wipe data". Someday I wanna make an option to log back in without wiping everything. bows1 posted:yes and I can't log back in... whats the deal! bows1 posted:for some reason I can't log in on the app any more... I got logged out somehow and can't log back in. The password and ID is the same that I use on my browser but it wont work now. I've deleted and reinstalled it and still nothing. Any ideas? This I don't have an answer for, especially if it works in browser. There used to be an issue if your password had certain characters in it, but I'm pretty sure that was fixed awhile ago? If your password is all ASCII then it's something else. shortspecialbus posted:While I know search would be a whole thing, perhaps "Find on Page" could be implemented? Find on Page is a good idea, I'll +1 that on the list. It's less varied work because we don't need any new info from the server to implement it, but I'm not sure which UI is gonna be more annoying to implement. Someday! Ditto jump-back-from-scroll-to-top. Kirios posted:Is there a way to have the Awful app show the entire last page instead of just the last post when I open a thread? I miss that from the Android version. If you scroll up a bit, you should see a button at the top to load previous posts on the page. But there's not currently anything automatic. I'll +1 it on the list though, it comes up a fair bit Silly Burrito posted:Is there a way to have a pasted YouTube link with embedded time work so that the time is saved? I could swear this used to work, but it may have been the Android app. Not sure but I'll check it out. goatsestretchgoals posted:Minor bug: I tried to edit my post and lost network connection, I got “Image upload failed” as the error message. Sorry no screenshot because I hammered the post button again after walking closer to my WiFi. This is a bad error message. In this case it probably meant a timeout, either because of some network issue or because of slow mode. I'll +1 it on the list. 101 posted:It doesn't seem possible to switch back to the default app icon if you change it to something else Whoops. I was messing with that recently (well, "recently" if you don't count the months I completely ignore this app and thread) and don't use the default icon myself. I'll take a look! Bust Rodd posted:It’s NBD, they keep getting probed for harassing me anyway. Just wanted to bring this to your attention as it was showing me an entirely separate users name so it seems like a bug.

Just a sensitive area for me An extension to the ignore feature wouldn't change the posting experience at all, since it only affects what posts are visible. I realize of course that I kramered in here with a feature request that might only interest me and no-one else, so I'm thinking I'll experiment with it and if it goes anywhere, I'll report back. I just keep having the experience that people on my ignore list become IKs or mods. Kia Soul Enthusias posted:Not for at least 10 years. You can still do it if you had them on ignore before they became mods. Just to be clear, I don't mean the list on the site through the User Control Panel, I mean through the user's profile page. I'm absolutely positive that within the last year I've been able to ignore a mod using that and now I can't. This was not a person I had on ignore before.

Searchable smileys! seconded. also thought of a feature when i was going through the pyf comics thread: it would be cool that if you opened up a picture in a thread you could swipe through all the pictures in the post in that view. i.e. long press on a image to open it, then swipe from right to left to see all the other images in the post in the same view.

The “Previous Posts” button is sometimes disabled for me when I enter a thread. Scenario is “wait, what are people talking about,” scroll up, button is disabled, go back a page and come back, scroll down to where I was. Really annoying.

Scenario is “wait, what are people talking about,” scroll up, button is disabled, go back a page and come back, scroll down to where I was. Really annoying. Previous posts is meant to show you the previous posts on the page you have loaded. It's disable when you already have the top of a page loaded. Are you saying it's not behaving like that or are you misunderstanding it's purpose? If you go back a page and then go forward there are more posts there than there were before?
