Zing Touch: ILX now ON IPHONE (and ipod tooches too)

ok this is pretty amazing -- fantastic work!

can someone please post screenshots here for those of us who are itms:// deficient

I will, happily, because just yesterday I figured out how to do screenshots on an iPhone: as you hold the home button at the bottom, press the sleep button on top. It saves a screenshot to your photoroll, which you can then email to yourself and upload to tinypic.

Give me just a sec...

Oops, I didn't see stet's post just above with the link to screenshots. Yeah, it basically looks like that. The only main difference is that pictures don't appear in the thread - you have to click on the individual posts to see them. Which is actually fine, because it makes picture heavy threads load a lot faster.

Again, great work Stet, this is going to make goofing off on ILX waaaaay easier at work now. :)

Thank you! Yeah, it's never done the images inline -- the performance would be really horrible and slow. I might look at doing an image browser like in Facebook for picture threads, though.

Holy lol at the screenshots

One thing I'd request; a white background on the app logo. It'd look so much nicer on my screen.

Found this thru my app store search. iPhone is being stupid and not letting me install.

An image browser would be fantastic!

D/l'ed the lite version today, will grab the $8 full when I get paid next week. Gotta save money for upcoming trip to NYC next week ON IPHONE.

Just searched found and downloaded today. Awesome!

do any of these profits go to server costs

feature request: landscape keyboard! also more bb code tags

yep, have landscape keyboard working already, also the full set of bbcode will be in 1.1. I've got a few other fixes, but I couldn't upload them while it was in review without losing my place in the queue. App store is frustrating as hell.

just spotted a bookmarking bug too. Will fix

I don't think stet making this app and stet running the server have anything to do with each other, jeff. If it were any other user writing the app would you have asked the question?

hey stet are u going to add admin log at some point?

Wasn't going to -- it's not in the API, so it'd be hard. Same with search, but I'd really like to add that somehow.

Shld also add SB for czn's portable suggestin needs.

I like the message you get when you x post

desired feature when you can be arsed to get around to it: local timestamping for logged-in users?

another request -

to stay where u were when u quit the app, instead of goin back to the list of boards

regardless - what a terrific program!!

^ yes, the latter

hello when will android version come out pls?

im embarrassed at how rad i find this app, i mean, i dont want to admit how great it is to use ilx on my iphone, but, you know.

any chance we could get archiving of bookmarks for offline browsing?

you could just use instapaper for all yr offline bookmarkin needs - i find myself using it more than safari these days

Tracer: does it need to save whereever you are, or can it just remember if you're reading a thread or in the middle of compose. I've been trying to save state, but it's a bit tricky as the server can completely change between launches, and threads that were there have dropped off new answers.

Archiving of bookmarks is a good idea actually -- then you could bookmark a post before getting on the subway or w/e, and the whole thing'd be there on the phone. Or I could add in Instapaper integration.

exactly as it was wd be ideal but just remembering what thread you were reading wd be almost as great

yes, exactly.

does instapaper even need integration? i just hit the "read later" bookmark in firefox and BILL VIOLA this thread is there

oh, within zing of course, duh

id rather have a built-in archiving feature in zing

that seems simpler

this kind of changes the way i look at ILX even. it's more like twitter now.
