Flagging is an ILX app for Android (in beta)

trying this now!

is there an easy way to quote posts or put in links?

There will be in Flagging Pro, the non-free version :-)

those are on the list, kinder

When I get fired for spending too much work time on this I'll have plenty of time to add new features

!!! stoked to try this out, thx so much

sent it out with fixes, might take an hour or two to show up. you'll know you have the latest if the Settings page shows Flagging 1.1

can i see a screenshot

Follow the Google Play link at the top of the thread for screenshots.

Still struggling to get bookmarks to sync between flagging and browser version

yeah, like stet said, that's a known issue for Zing as well as Flagging. I'm going to add some logging to the app and see if I can track it down.

Board issue seems fine now, thanks for fixing that. I raised another minor issue upthread about scrolling, would be great if you could have a look at that sometime (low priority obv)

personalised updates! A+

I'd love to try this out, but I'm on Android 4.1.5 and I can't install it.

I'm not doing anything fancy, should be able to update the app to support that.

am i missing something obvious? is there a way to see updated bookmarked threads?

that's what 'bookmarks' is

revive this when you finally 'get' bookmarks

lol the order looked different than the web versh on first glance. it's not.

Arch I just uploaded a version that should work for you, available in a couple hours probably.

Awesome! Will try it out later today.

Posting this from Flagging...

Cool, it works! But I don't see my reply after I post.

OK, this is a great app. Works smoothly and does exactly what it needs to do. Excellent work, lukas!

I do have a few suggestions:

- Refresh the thread after posting a reply
- It would be nice if the grey area at the bottom of a thread had a textbox to reply immediately
- I'd love a separate bookmark button
- Swipe to the right to go back to the thread list

Some visual things, not neccessary but nice to have:

- Add a '.. months/years passed' separator between such posts
- Maybe add a poll icon in front of thread titles, instead of - poll behind it

The app is great, I especially like the way hidden images are treated. Definitely needs a better icon though, maybe even the standard ILX logo.

There is a standard ILX logo?

uh.jpg

I think he means the favicon, which is "ilx" in pink and yellow vag rounded.

I'll see if I can whip up an icon today.

As for bookmarks, I can't really figure out what's happening with them. It looks like there's a lag between a post and the updated bookmark, but it's hard to tell.

ok it looks like the bookmarks i've set on the app are now different than those on web? is that a db thing or an app thing

Not sure. Happens with Zing Touch too sometimes.

I don't know if you want to keep the flag in the icon, but I would love something like this on my phone:

Don't want to use the Zing icon?

I think both are great but I prefer the text

post

Zing is its own thing (that I cribbed from relentlessly)

I have very negative associations with that shade of blue, AC. But we do need a better icon ...

*xpost, lol

If you let me know the color you would like I'll make a set of png icons for you tomorrow.

you can change your own icons on android. maybe not on stock jelly bean though...

A couple more:

AC, thanks - can you email to flagging at theporouscity dot com?

Oh nvm, didn't realize that's a png already.

Do you need more sizes?

this thing has told me it's posted a couple times, then didn't actually. this was after a crash. i hit ok w/o sending a report. i'm a bad beta participant.

When you go to the settings page, what version do you see at the bottom? There are a couple people running the original broken version.

Won't affect us. I paid the $, got my retina scanned etc to be a registered developer.

Great! Thank you for the sacrifice.

Incidentally, the problem with hidden/spoiler text mentioned some 10 posts up seems to persist the majority of time for me. eg. this post today:

Flagging is an ILX app for Android (in beta)

Are there perhaps some characters I should avoid putting inside the tags? I'm struggling to find a pattern. I mean, folks can easily click through to the web if they really give a toss, but given that this had seemingly not been a problem before about January 26th it's quite intriguing.

Sorry, *this* post today: No way that's purple: the NYT Connections thread
