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

try this

need to fix one bug (see if you can find it!) and then will get started with logged-in stuff. stet's redoing the server side of login to make it a bit easier to work with.

throw some oauth on to that shit

lol (logging (in) on line)

so zing bookmarks and ilx bookmarks don't sync for me anymore? anyone else having this problem?

it's been sporadic - it works enough that i think i'm going crazy

yeah i was thinking the same thing, i'm being gaslit by a dang phone

I'm trying to figure this out just now. What desktop browsers are you using?

chrome on mac at home
chrome on chromebook at large

chrome on mac at home too

it syncs MOST of the time tho :/

mine syncs hardly ever

still no ilx on android?

workin on it. i'll have another version up hopefully today (still just reading stuff, no posting.)

bookmarks still completely broken on iOS

lukas, i could lend a hand with some bugfixes. just got an android fone and i'm looking to learn the platform

xp stet was doing some stuff for me too, so his ilx workload is heavier than normal :/

d85 - thanks for the offer. i'll probably take you up on it but let me figure out if i want to clean anything up first. in the meantime if you email me at lukasb at the gmail i'll send you a link to the code.

okay android folks, here it is maybe 60% baked

- by default, only downloads images in thread view on wifi, you can change in settings
- if you tap on an individual message you can watch video or bookmark it
- bookmarks are fake - they don't sync with your regular bookmarks since you're not logged in

let me know if you need help installing it

I just want to say thankyou for the Block Poster feature on Zing, it's great :-)

that's a thing now???

does it only work on the app or does it work on the browser too?

Just the app I think, tap on an individual post then the exclamation mark on the top right corner and you get the option to either flag post or block poster

it makes me read ilx on my phone A LOT more

Weird this thread got bumped but I don't see any new posts!

(Jk)

why was this thread bumped r there new features

I finally bought this a couple of weeks ago and have been reading ILX a lot more than I have in recent years. One thing I might be missing is: How does one share or link to a post?

Ah you can't, sorry, I'll bring that feature back soon.

i've deleted this and reinstalled and it still won't sync with the website's bookmarks :(

One thing that's possible is people are mistapping the bookmark icon. I've found myself doing it.

Also, to successfully bookmark you both have to hit the button dead-on *and* wait for the "bookmark set" message. If you miss or go back too early, it won't be set. That has been driving me nuts.

What it shouldn't affect is bookmarks set on the site appearing in the updated bookmarks list. Are you seeing that?

Zing/ilx just don't communicate at all, w/r/t bookmarks

like if i open zing right now, threads that i read and bm'd on the website are showing up in the list. if i bm them in zing, they go away, but that isn't reflected over on ilx.

are you sure you're on the same account? very odd

is there a search or find button on the zing thing?

xp yup

mine work fine now. (sorry, that doesn't help does it)

Do you guys use the standard font or switch to helvetty? What is this standard font called?

i use the serif font

Iago no. It's the last thing missing imo. Still love and use the app everyday tho

I have the same problem as gbx.

xp thks calstars...i still use it happily. (serif font here too)

Are there any plans for a full-functionality Android app? Happy to pay for something along the lines of this with log-ins, bookmarks, notifications, etc.

Zing doesn't even have notifications yet. But there's an early (unofficial) Android app up thread you can play with ^^

I'm sorry if this is old business, but the xpost bug is the worst thing ever and I personally would prefer there to be no xpost warning at all and I wonder if others feel similarly

indeed!

^thirded

The xpost bug is a bloody bastard and I promise to try and fix it. It drives me personally crazy so you're not alone. It's just hard to fix.

i have come to treat it like a short timing and prediction game

cool :-) but in the meantime I honestly would be ok with the warning simply not coming up at all, if that's possible/easy to implement?

Unfortunately not - that's a rule in the server. You have to see it once, then you can say "ignore xposts". That's where the bug lies.

Me and diamonddave85 are working on it.

Cool!

That's great to hear! I don't know if this goes against any unspoken ILX rules but I'd be more than happy to put money towards this for your time & effort.

does the delete button on the app just /remove bookmark/?
