I’m going against my original plans which was to implement user suggestions and instead jumping into polishing and fine tuning of the app. Enough stuff in the app bother me that I just want to clean it all up sooner rather than later.

v1.33.5

This will be the last v1.33.x release. This release should add the rest of the tweaks I had in mind.

Changes so far:

• Auto-clear notifications if user looks at inbox screen.
• Updated the UI of the community info screen.
• Fixed a bug where the FAB button would be in the wrong spot if the keyboard is opened and closed.
• Fixed some minor bugs when searching for communities.
• Fixed a bug where image previews are blurry.
• Fixed some image viewer bugs.

v1.33.4

Changes so far:

• Mention suggestions. When creating a post or comment, mentions (starting with ! or @) will show suggestions based what is typed.
• Fixed a bug where tapping “Share image” will cause the share sheet to show up constantly.
• Changed long tap on an image in the post list to open the image options menu. Previously it would preview the image full screen. This change was made to make long tapping more consistent (long tapping things usually opens a context menu).
• Image preview redesign. Move buttons to the bottom of the screen for easier access. Translucent UI. UI auto hides on zoom.
• Fixed a bug with the layout “Large list” where images would be clipped on the sides.

v1.33.3

Changes so far:

• Rework the community options menu. Organized and updated the options shown.
• Added subscribe/unsubscribe as an action to the community options menu & link menu (for communities).
• Added a solid background color to community and profile icons so they don’t look odd when placed in front of a banner.
• Added undo button to save post/comment snackbar.
• Fixed some snack bar layout issues.

Old (v1.33.1)

Changes so far:

• Fixed two rare-ish crashes.
• Overhauled the community navigation logic. This should hopefully eliminate more navigation bugs.

Old (v1.33.0)

Changes so far:

• Update message layout on the inbox screen to clearly indicate the sender and receiver.
• Link menu enhancements. Long tapping “links” (eg. user name) will show more rich options that are specific to the link type. For instance long tapping a community link will show community options as well as link options.
• Removed setting “sharing images directly”. Due to the link menu enhancements, the setting for “sharing images directly” is now obsolete because both options are always present for images.
• Fixed a bug where WEBM videos will not play.
• Fixed some weird navigation bugs.

Update

Going to keep this post alive even though v1.33.0’s release is imminent. This is because I will be implementing many more changes as point releases (eg. v1.33.1, v1.33.2, etc) and I will update this post accordingly.
