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

any chance we can get rid of the preview (or make it an option) soon? I just got hit with a Better Call Saul spoiler!

yes

and i continue to be hit on preview by certain prolific posters i have reluctantly blocked

This bugs me too. I will fix both!

Sad!

Thanks stet

Preview?

bookmarks in zing show a preview of the latest post in the thread underneath the thread title, takes up a lot of room and often contains spoilers.

ahhh. i dont use bookmarks.

inconceivable!

i mostly just rely on the dots! So on mobile ILX is kinda hard to navigate at all haha.

Having SNA show up before / above bookmarks would be a massive improvement to this user’s experience

Not sure why but the “help me learn Japanese” thread will not load any answers at all on iOS 12. Everything else fine apart from the occasional lockup.

Same

my minor complaint is embedded twitter vids won’t play but I’ve found workarounds so it’s v v low priority

haha yeah at this point i think of that not as a bug but as just a particularity, a lovable quirk

Why doesn’t ILX on iphone/safari warn you that other people have posted when you hit submit post?

I think that was put in because the OG Safari on Edge was so slow that you could get caught in xpost warnings forever on slow threads. Could probably take that out now.

New Zing version rolling out now: adds a preference for those snippets. Sorry it took so long!

thank you

So nice thanks!

:D

this is great

gooood thx stet

no idea why, but the recently revived Prodigy thread refused to open for me on zing...

Same here

There’s some old-ILX HTML in there somewhere that’s giving Zing pause

Old like flint... Thanks for checking stet.

Bookmarking the Filmforum thread on De Subjectivisten crashes the app.

Hmm works for me!

Hmm. I'm on an iPhone SE/12.2.
Maybe removing and re-bookmarking will work..

It didn't :/

Is that the only thread you can’t bookmark?

Yes. Out of 30-40 bookmarked threads that's the only one.

btw thx for fixing that thing where the menu text was all jumbled

Just weighing in to say I'm on iPhone 5S/12.2 and filmforum bookmarks just fine here.

New version rolling out now, mainly small changes:
- There's a dark mode toggle in the homescreen
- You can now swipe a bookmark left to set it to the latest message, and right to delete it
- You can now share a post as a link, or open it in your browser (tap a message and hit the share button)
- The single message page now follows the font size set in settings, and looks a bit less 2007.
- Zing copes better if messages have corrupt or bad HTML in them, and lets you open the thread in Safari instead of crashing.
- The keyboard's now quite dark in dark mode

Awesome! Have you looked at the rotate bug?

Yes, but haven't fixed it — it doesn't seem to be totally my fault, the tableview is doing something I can't quite explain but I might be able to work around it.

thx, man!

as always, many thanks. it’s a great app anyway and those additions all seem really useful.

All hail the Stet

Excellent update.

This is so good, first time using it and it’s great! Thanks stet!

you left off the “post anyway” feature when xposting, stet, which i was pleased to see tho muscle memory meant i clicked out and posted again anyway obv.

Rats, so I did, and that was the hardest bit to do

- You can now share a post as a link, or open it in your browser (tap a message and hit the share button)
- The single message page now follows the font size set in settings, and looks a bit less 2007.

Lovely update! Thanks stet

yes, thank you stet!
