Preparing for Android release
Added 2022-04-07 12:40:39 +0000 UTCHi! We've just uploaded a new build of the Android app. We want to speed up the process and release it sooner to make use of the heightened attention on Mastodon due to the news of Elon Musk becoming a Twitter shareholder (Mastodon was trending on Twitter yesterday).
This could be the build that gets uploaded to the Play Store. Please test it and write your feedback in the comments below!
Edit: Apparently the App Center SDK responsible for notifying about new versions and sending crash reports was not included due to a bug at the time of this Patreon post, so I ask you to download the latest version manually so we can get all the crash reports. Thank you!

Hi, I just gave up trying to establish the Android app. I will stick with the Windows desktop method. I entered my name, user name, email address and the site generated password three times without getting any message on my Gmail? Time is scarce folks.

2022-12-10 10:44:31 +0000 UTCDeleting posts is a little buggy. Also it'd be super nice to edit posts.

2022-04-13 09:07:04 +0000 UTCBuild 25 crashes on opening. It doesn't crashes if I am not logged in but as soon as I setup my account it closes.

2022-04-10 05:22:22 +0000 UTCInstalled all along with tusky now as well. Looks and feels quite good, but is pretty bare-bone by now. Do you by chance have some kind of roadmap, public wishlist, ... for that? ποΈ

2022-04-08 18:53:18 +0000 UTC- I'd love to see avatars at the list when switching the account. - Can't see if someone is following me at their profile - It's not possible to enable notifications if someone posts, also no notification if enabled on the web Thanks for your work, love it!

2022-04-08 11:50:04 +0000 UTCIs there any instance-side dependency? I'm on hackers.town which is 3.4.6+glitch

2022-04-07 22:57:03 +0000 UTCYes. Stock Android 11 on a Surface Duo 2, w/all the Google trimmings.

2022-04-07 22:55:33 +0000 UTCDo you have Google Play Services?
Gargron
2022-04-07 21:03:47 +0000 UTCDefinitely _not_ getting notifications even after resetting the app. Also tried turning the notification toggles on and off.
Wilhelm Fitzpatrick
2022-04-07 20:13:12 +0000 UTCJust got a crash while scrolling left and right on the search bar tab scrolling between the posts, hastags, news, for you tabs. Can't seem to reproduce it, Pixel 6 Pro latest Android version

2022-04-07 19:49:39 +0000 UTCThis toot showed its link preview outside the CW in app, but correctly hides it on the web https://chat.noelle.codes/@noelle/108092180106988227

2022-04-07 19:42:19 +0000 UTCHave the app installed alongside Tusky, got a notification in Tusky for a boost, but didn't show up in this app. I'll try clearing storage and relogging in in case that matters.

2022-04-07 19:37:48 +0000 UTCAnd another one and hopefully the last one: if you mark an instance in the "Get started" view, scroll out the view and mark another instance, the checkbox will stay in the previous one.

2022-04-07 15:15:19 +0000 UTCAnd I miss an option to enable/disable GIF autoplay. That only seems to work with emojis and avatars. iOS seems to already have this feature. Also I'm really missing scrubbing through videos and play/pause them. I'd like to help with the German translation.

2022-04-07 14:58:08 +0000 UTCGBoard GIFs aren't supported as well

2022-04-07 14:53:44 +0000 UTCThe emoji picker doesn't work for me: https://mastodon.social/@travis/108091176419287649
Travis Hardiman
2022-04-07 14:53:36 +0000 UTCNo notifications, favourites counter doesn't show actual numbers and updates sporadically, sometimes the app crashes on GCM
