Thank you for all your support over the past weeks. It’s helped us get to this point.
A word of caution: The build that was released is slightly outdated and there are a few issues that have already been addressed in that build. Unfortunately because you can’t replace the build in review, we were not able to update it as we went through this nearly week-long back and forth with Apple. It required an appeal to get us onto the store.
With that said, I’ll be releasing the final version of 0.0.2 tonight to TestFlight, and will begin build versioning starting at 0.1.0, which will be the next release on the store. I’ll try and have something submitted to them tonight and hopefully it will be reviewed and released within a day or so.
I’ll update this post here in a few hours with more information. Tonight’s build will include another list of bug fixes as well as vast improvements to the slide to upvote/comment feature (no more glitching, hopefully) as well as hopefully fixing a few issues with the image viewer.
This should give us a fairly stable release which I will submit to Apple for review. Thankfully, now that we have completed the initial review future updates should be much quicker (likely around 12-24 hours per update).
See you guys in a bit!
Cheers!
Congrats! I’ve been on the beta for a couple of weeks and am very impressed how quickly it’s become solid.
Can you let me know the best way to submit feature requests? There is one or two gestures I dearly miss from Apollo and find myself reflexively doing.
Swipe left on feed view to return to previous thread? Me too.
For me, there are two things I miss most.
On a comment swiping from right to left would collapse that entire thread up to the parent comment. I used this ALL THE TIME. It’s great for when you’re deep down a rabbit hole of comments and go “ok I’m done with this conversation, what’s the next one?”, then swipe to shrink the whole thing up to the next parent comment. I didn’t realize how much I loved this feature until after it was gone.
The second might be the same as what you’re saying (?). If I accidentally swipe out of a topic and back to the magazine list view of posts, in Apollo you could go “oops!” And swipe from the right edge to go back to where you were (even, back to the comment you were at in that topic). It was a really nice feature.
Exactly, second one was the feature I was poorly explaining. Reflexively do it a lot still. Your other one was very useful too though
Same, i didn’t realize how much muscle memory I had engrained from Apollo, I swipe right to left at least 3 times a day to try and return to a thread 😖
