Is there a way to disable the adjusting of the screen position after images load? On a computer and web browser it's useful because the previous read posts are loaded as well, but in awful usually it's only 1 or 2 read posts that are loaded with a thread (set to 0 for me), so it's not hard to scroll down and readjust manually if images have caused to view to adjust to a read post. And because of how slow 3G can be sometimes, what happens is I find myself reading like 10, 15 posts in before all the images have loaded and Awful readjusts to the first post again and I have to slowly scroll down to find the post I was at.

At the very least turn the feature off once the user has started to scroll (and presumably start reading the thread).

The biggest problem I would like fixed is reading a thread and all of a sudden getting bumped back to the top because the app has finally finished loading all of the images.

Yeah this feature is useful on a web browser when you might end up 10 previous posts above the unread, but completely annoying since awful allows you load only unread

I liked how the old app opened external links within Awful instead of safari, is this change going to be permanent?

That's the plan. We found switching back and forth between Safari and Awful a nicer experience than maintaining our lovely built-in browser.

Though it occurs to me we should allow for other browsers, not just Safari.

Does it require a lot of maintenance? I assumed it was using Safari, just within the app.. It's a little annoying in the link heavy threads where you have to keep double tapping the home button to get back to Awful..

Hey pokeyman is it convenient to install an option to disable the yospos stylesheet? I get that lots of people like it but there are a few of us who adblock it on our computers :twisted:

That was weird, Awful just forgot my login details out of nowhere.

Same here.. Are cookies set to expire on a certain date rather than time since last login?

I can't see avatars or smileys on IOS7, iPhone 5. There's just a white box with a black border. Pics in posts are fine. What should I do?

Please make it so that style sheet options aren't saved in ram, like before. It's annoying to have to keep setting it :(

Kind of an edge case but would it be possible to add a toggle to disable pull for next page?

I scroll as I read a thread so my eyes are constantly only paying attention to the top half of the screen and sometimes I don't notice I've hit the end and when I release it goes to the next page before I've finished reading.

Also is it just me that finds it easier to just tap the arrow to go to the next page rather than dragging up. I've never used pull for next page in any app

Can 'pull to load next page' be a toggle in settings please I've jumped to the next page twice in literally the last 30 seconds before reading the last two posts on the page
