Wow you are not even close. He could drop the app right now and there is nothing anyone can do about it.

Now all of you entitled feeling children. The dev doesn't owe you anything nor does he have to be nice to you. Had it been one of my apps. I would have told you to f off. For every 1 star rating people do. Devs can buy hundreds of 5 star ratings for less then you paid for the app. So please do think you ha e any power over the dev. Users are just another number in the list of numbers.

Now the next time some decides to demand anything or telling a dev how to be. Just keep it shut and move on.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] arter97:
After notifying all users that the developer is aware of the issue and promising an update "soon",

it's hard to maintain decorum with users thinking $2 is enough to ignore developer's circumstances and keep on demanding updates.

I consider that an insult.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] arter97:
Wow, are you even capable of sympathizing basic human emotions?

I literally notified all users 5 days ago, immediately after the issue that I'm completely aware of the issue and I'll be updating in a few days.

After that, saying "I'll be reporting this as scam"? Do you think software engineers are a bunch of underpaid robots writing code all day long to serve that kind of human beings?

There were total of 34 updates spanning 3 years and 2 months.

There are currently more than 5,000 active users.

Go ahead, report it as a scam.

Just need patience that's all.. He did notify thru the app that the update would be done in a few days.. U should try coding urself. Not to easy...imo..everyone in the same boat.. It's not working. But just be patient. Thanks for ur hard work... @ Arter97..

When has it become ok to downplay a successful app like this due to a prolonged fix?

Hats off to the dev on your great work.

People need to take a step back from instant gratification within apps. Realize devs are human. If life comes before developing then you are on the right path. If not then use the following line of code,

Thank you arter for the continuous support & for notifying us about the issue.

I understand why people are frustrated, given that the app provides some amazing features that people got used to them, me included. However, I'm happy to wait.

I don't think there's any need to take this discussion outside the boundaries of respect.

Peace

It's okay, it's okay..... first it keeps downloading fail....fail...then I comes here and read..., then I received notification...and oh, it's okay it's okay.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] user2837:
I find the price of 2 dollars (local currency) to be more than reasonable.

I wish there were similar donation apps for NewPipe and youtube downloader by dentex so we could more easily support development of those two (still working) alternative apps. Likewise for the development of the youtube-dl backend.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] manpman:
I hope you update the app soon, i love your app and no other app doing it like yours
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] ChangeToTower:
True - by far the best app out there for downloading youtube content. Great work, highly appreciated!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] sieem:
Yeah you only realise how handy ArkTube works compared to other YouTube downloaders once it's broken. Keep up the good work, patiently waiting for the update, no rush!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] antoniobarros:
Reasonable time

Yeah this app is useful. The dev is working on the issue? Great! But I'm working too with my phone. I paid this app for the amazing features. It's are needed for some reasons. First a lot of time saved. So notification was show that in a few days it's will resolve. Ok! Then show in this week. Ok! Then?

Why I can't show my disappointed? With respect?

Best wishes! (I love your work...?)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] D-m-x:
Because it's not going to make him go any faster or change anything? If anything he will be sick of those comments and take even longer or abandon the app altogether. It's not like you need a psychology diploma to know that, more like common sense. Seems most people are just missing that nowadays, mostly in the internet.

Sometimes it's just better to shut up and let others do their work on their own conditions.

Hi,

arkTube v7.1.2 with the Donation has been running fine for a while, until today, when the update to v4.5 for the Arter97 Donation.

The first time I ran arkTube after the update, the screen for the Donation app came up and said said thank you, but when the arkTube screen appeared, a box popped up telling me that I'm using the Free Version and the paid options are disabled and it directed me to the Google Play Store to buy the Donation app that I already bought.

I tried uninstalling/reinstalling the Donation, but then it said it couldn't link to the server.

I then uninstalled v4.5 of the Donation app and installed v4.4 again. It worked fine.

Something is wrong with the v4.5 update.

TTYL
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] :
+1 same here
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] D-m-x:
Yeah, sorry. I forgot you paid 2$ (!), he totally owes you [emoji23]

Apart from that, the donation app which you paid for is working just fine and does what it's supposed to do, while arktube itself is free to download.

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Valkyrie743:
if you open the app. its very clear that he's working on an update to fix the app from the pop up that opens when trying to use it
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] aouni_tahech:
Thanks! The app has beem updated!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] arter97:
A much needed update is now live.

The new update requires arter97 Donation Package v4.5 or higher.

Due to my personal schedule involving university's midterm exams and leaving the country right after the exams to join an event held at India, the update took way longer than usual. It usually takes just a day or two to update the app upon a total breakage.

I'd like to mention that I take supporting arkTube extremely seriously. During this update, I personally prioritized updating arkTube higher than watching Avengers: Endgame, and worked on it when I could watch the movie instead. arkTube will be kept on updated as long as I use YouTube.

Thanks to everyone who waited patiently for the update and showed the support along the way.

7.1.3

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Tim3tripp3r:
Thank You

[MENTION=4898097]arter97[/MENTION]

Hopefully the midterms went well for you and your event went well.

Thank you for your time in developing this app and the ongoing work you put into maintaining it.

The price for the app is miniscule compared to other things that one can buy. In Canada I paid $2.00 for arktube, it's hard to buy a beverage for this much. After I drink it all I have left is the empty container. Your great little app just keeps giving and giving.

Sometimes life just unrolls in different ways than we hoped for, being just one person makes it impossible somedays to achieve everything that we wish for. Not a failure in my books, just a realization that we are all human.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] arter97:
The new update is now supposed to tell you exactly which app is triggering the warez detection.

Check the notification and the bottom text when you get that warning.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Zeuszoos:
No, it wasn't. It said nothing about that. What did happen was that a notification appeared (not within the app) that mentioned a coming update that would resolve a download issue that I never even experienced.

As I did not see my issue mentioned in the Notification, I did not know if said coming update would fix the issue I posted or not and so my post was designed to simply let him know what was happening, as that's how developers learn of any issues that users may be having.

He has released an update to the main app and it works great with the Donation update! :)

hi,

even using version 7.1.3 every download fails. for 10-20 seconds the notification says "initializing download" and then it says "download failed".

uninstall and reinstall didn't help.

is this a known bug?

[MENTION=4898097]arter97[/MENTION] i think there is something broken with the metadata of downloaded audio?

For example:

[youtube]d8ErxFasiJo[/youtube]

File name: ILLENIUM - Pray ft. Kameron Alexander (T-Mass & LZRD Remix)-d8ErxFasiJo.m4a

The title,artist and album only showing the original names or some songs having a completely different titke,album and artist names unlike before
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] SkaboXD:
I have the same issue. Before it would insert same tags like on YouTube video (like it should be) but now it inserts tags found on internet which I don't want. It's maybe weird but i prefer default YouTube tags, it's useful to see uploader name in case he deletes video.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Ragnar Eldur:
The proxy addition apps installed by the Lucky Patcher also needs to be removed so the donation package approves the full activation.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] zaidshb:
I have a data plan were youtube usage is unlimited only from the app, so when I download a video using arktube is it considered as watching from the app or a separate download?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] -Deco-:
Separate download - it is performed via an external server outwith Youtube itself.

Also facing download issues with both video and audio. Simce I just wanted the audio, I spammed the audio download button about 10 times and it finally went through.

- ArkTube 7.1.3 + unlock key from the Play Store

- YouTube 14.22.55
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] biswop:
I went and paid for the donation package and it told me to remove lucky patcher so I did then it went and refunded itself so I couldn't be bother dealing with this app at all
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] D-m-x:
You are not telling the full story here. A purchase does not refund itself if you don't do it actively, meaning you press the refund button or uninstall the app.

Also, it's well known that LP is frowned upon. It has been discussed quite often in this topic. I have never used that app, but even I know by now that it installs some sort of proxy that needs to be uninstalled manually. Just don't use that kind of apps

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Zeuszoos:
Hi,

I haven't even downloaded with arkTube in a while, so I haven't updated the main app either. Would you mind please telling me which one (App? Donation?) is having the issue and what the Version #(s) that has the issue is/are, so that when I open it in a couple of days to check, I'll know whether or not to bother with the update yet? I would very much appreciate it.

My assumption is that it's the App, since I should see any Updates to the Donation when I (often) check the Google Play Store for updates.

Thank You!

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Zeuszoos:
You still haven't read it through though.

My point is that I haven't opened it in a while, so there is definitely an update waiting for me. But I will skip the one with the issue and get the fixed one. There's no point in updating to one that won't download.

However, I can't know if I'm looking at the broken or fixed update when I open the app (a couple of days from now), if I don't know what the broken Ver # is. So I'm asking what the latest is right now, so that when I open the app, I know not to bother updating, unless the Ver # is newer than that.
