[About XDA developers] IronTechmonkey:
Well said, and a good example of realism about the fact that performance might be bad for some people, and about the fact that improvements occur based on a priority and are indeed actually happening. Getting to last post or last unread post has improved, and there are some nice new post editing features but the jumpy nature of the edit box makes it difficult for me to create well structured posts and frequently results in stray material or unready material being posted. This does not make me want to slam at the app. This makes me want to help improve it so I can use those additional features in an interface that is more comfortable.
[About XDA developers] shinobisoft:
So... For reasons unknown I had somehow been logged out of XDA. Logged back in and now the app is telling me that I don't have any Watched threads. Anyone else facing this issue today? I'm not a happy camper!!!

EDIT: Manually refreshing the Watched threads tab seems to have fixed the issue...
[About XDA developers] IronTechmonkey:
FWIW, on one device with the XDA app sometimes opened and sometimes closed and sometimes online (mobile data or Wi-Fi) and sometimes offline and sometimes viewing site in web browser but having stayed logged in I had no issues during that period, except for the normal delays in the refreshing of alerts.

[EDIT] I was also on and off the site in a desktop web browser during that period.

Bouncing back at this again. Everything look normal in my previous posts but now several hours later I'm spontaneously log out of the app. It happens that I was logged in via Firefox on the same device and that never experienced the log off. I've been logged in concurrently before so I somewhat assume that is not the issue. In any event I'm logged back in now.

I'm also browsing xda via app and mobile browser in parallel without any log out/in issues.

Hope that it's not an admin or moderator kicking you out from time to time 😂
[About XDA developers] It_ler:
Then the culprit is on your PC.

Maybe a kind of adblocker or something like this.

Can you check with another browser on your PC?

Just to see if it's something in your browser.

[About XDA developers] IronTechmonkey:
Yeah, I got a MOD PM stating "You have monkey thumbs and are likely at some point to accidentally log yourself out and you spend too much time here anyhow, so we are going to take care of that for you now". 🤪

But seriously, monkey thumbs is close to the truth. In the app I was in the account panel where the logout button is shortly before this happened and log-in in web browser on different device persisted ... so I kicked me out before they could kick me out. No issue with app or web UI.
[About XDA developers] IamTheBRAVE:
Mobile push is still broken for me. If i don't activate alerts with it, i don't receive notification or alerts. Also when opening a notification, alerts don't update.

Keep updating please 🙏 i like the app better than the web version and use it almost exclusively.

How to watch only development thread on new forum (for example S21 ultra) on mobile app?

I can use filter on website but on app it showing all post instead of development only if I apply 'watch' label with filter on
[About XDA developers] NIKOSXRI:
When I open the app in night mode I get two flashes of white screen before I see the menu.

This is ridiculous, it hearts my eyes, I hesitate to open it.

Months passed and the white has been reduced to 1-2 seconds but still there.

Is it so difficult?

I prefer to pay for the app if will perform as it should .

We are talking for the app of developers site and the app is crap.

Rename from zip to mp4 to watch, since 2sec of mp4 is not allowed to upload

@svetius

@Audentio

Hi,

Thank you for the update 🙂

My first issues / remarks with the new app v2.15.26 upgraded for XF 2.2:

Issue #1

Seems like there is a new thread view layout with the app, but when you use the navigation buttons to change pages...

Spoiler content hidden.

... it automatically switches to the regular web view layout and it is kept like this at this point:

Spoiler content hidden.

So the new page layout is shown only for the first page that has been opened. it is a pity because it is not consistent and having a specific and simplified thread view layout for the app is a good thing to me.

Issue #2

There is no navigation buttons on top of each page on the new thread view layout. It would be handy to have them on top of it as well as at the bottom to avoid having to swipe the whole page to change page. Or maybe it would be good to be able to change pages by swiping right or left?

Spoiler content hidden.
[About XDA developers] IamTheBRAVE:
I personally liked the old layout. Especially in dark theme the orange looks great. Would be cool if we could choose the accent color used throughout the app. The white on black looks bland...

Also the app seems to crash when opening recents. And from time to time gives a 504 error
[About XDA developers] tiho5:
Does the new version have the ability to jump to first unread post in threads?
[About XDA developers] woodman:
Yes I think it works now with the new version but I need a few days to make sure of this.

Edit: hmm, I am not sure if it goes to the last unread or to the last post. That's why I need more time to check.
[About XDA developers] dctrbnsttr:
It goes to the last post not to the last unread post. So, it has not been fixed......

Browser still works better in this regard.
[About XDA developers] chuchipando:
How do I clear alert on the mobile site without having to go throug them? So many unwanted alerts.
[About XDA developers] shinobisoft:
The new thread view isn't very pleasant, using dark theme. Posts seem to run together with no real discernable break between them.

Opening a post from Alerts seems to jump to the last unread post for me.
[About XDA developers] Nokono:
Last update is funny - you can't access the forums with the app created to acceess the forums.

Is there a way to apply filter on app like on browser?

For example, newer forum (S21 for example) we can filter development thread on webpage but How to watch only devopment thread on app? there is only option is to watch full forum not section.
[About XDA developers] joeldf:
Every time I open a thread - like this one - it still goes straight to the end, instead of the last post I read. If it's been a few days, then it skips all those posts, and I have to go back a page or two to catch up.
[About XDA developers] dctrbnsttr:
It has been like this from the get go. Reported numerous times with each app update. Yet to be fixed. Web browser access to this forum behaves properly wrt finding the last read post/first unread post.
[About XDA developers] shinobisoft:
I've always viewed new posts via Alerts. The app has gone to the first unread post since the second update of the app after the transition to Xenfro...

[About XDA developers] dahawthorne:
Sorry, people, I try to cut as much slack as I can, but this new version is not fit for purpose. I know that you're putting effort into it, and I appreciate it, but...

When a straight search for "Magisk" returns as its first result "Huawei Mate 20 X", even when I select "Search in title only", you know there's something very badly wrong.
[About XDA developers] IamTheBRAVE:
A suggestion if i may: the reply (blue) button looks obsolete. Since everyone uses the reply box that already has a "post reply" button
[About XDA developers] IamTheBRAVE:
Apparently, i'm "Seriously Likeable"🤓 i'm getting an error when trying to click on it and and notification badge does not go away. I think maybe it tries to open the profile tab but it can't get permission?

There are many things that are not working or working bad.

Click on "squared pixel" icon near the Home (footer), search for a Device name ("Note 20"), press "Samsung Note 20 Ultra", choose a sub-forum, enter a Thread and now try to press BACK......you goes 2 or 3 levels above on the Searched Results instead of the ThreadPreview (that I don't want...however..) or the choosed Sub-forum

press BACK when a picture (that someone has posted) is in full screen take the user out of the whole THREAD

Thread Preview is very annoying and seems I cannot disable it (I can't found a "Settings" part where set some behavior or something else)
[About XDA developers] shinobisoft:
For Settings...

Of course, but an Android user usually uses Back button to return to previous View/State/Page, so the behavior should remain the same as usual.
[About XDA developers] NickosD:
That's a first for a forum. Newest posts shown at the top of the page of a thread. Each time I update and open this app, there's a new bug

(thread for the beta s10 one ui 3)
[About XDA developers] Sobek5150:
I believe you likely have thread preview turned on. Not a bug. In fact likely the first time it's worked correctly since the app launched.

I turned mine off as I find it annoying to see the posts pop up like that and then when clicking on them it enters the thread showing it in the proper order.
[About XDA developers] NickosD:
Okay then the preview turns itself on whenever it feels to.

I had it off lol. And I didn't noticed it was the preview cause of the full screen preview
[About XDA developers] Sobek5150:
LOL well then yes. The auto toggling on might be a bug then. Unless it was automatically on after the recent update.
[About XDA developers] rappa619:
Why isn't there a jump to first unread? Everytime I open a previously viewed thread that has new posts, it just opens to the last post.

Also I think that preview should be off by default.

That menu only shows watching forums. There should be a list of devices above "Manage devices". When using that button, my device model is in search box with no results. If i enter my device name i get a hit but backing out doesn't save it. [Still haven't updated]

EDIT: updated. App works fine. Forum tab displays device correctly. Thank you XDA Team👍
[About XDA developers] jwarrior319:
So the issue i was having is a result of the issue android was having with the webview app. Google pushed an update for both system webview and chrome to fix the issue. Apparently it was a problem for a wide range of apps but only affected a handfull of people.
[About XDA developers] shinobisoft:
Still seeing the blinding white screen just after the splash screen. When viewing a thread from Watching tab, for example, it sends me to the last post of the thread instead of the last unread post.
[About XDA developers] svetius:
We are looking into the thread behavior...it should go to last unread, not newest.
[About XDA developers] dr.ketan:
I have reported two times but don't know if you have noted. There is no option to watch specific section on newer forum (with suffix)

For example, if I want to watch only development section of S21 ultra, I can't as app can't differentiate different section e.g Development/guide/q&a etc
[About XDA developers] sd_shadow:
You are asking who to watch just a certain thread label, in the flattened forums, correct.

And that's not just app options, that isn't an option for browser view either.
[About XDA developers] dr.ketan:
On browser with single tap on development we can. App have no visible label so very difficult

App should have visible label to sort out required section
[About XDA developers] IamTheBRAVE:
@svetius for me it behaves correctly. Just now the app opened on post #1161 (first unread for me). Galaxy A20 on android GSI 11.
[About XDA developers] wonsky21:
There's only one cosmetic issue for me: unread thread titles are not accented enough.
[About XDA developers] n0j0e:
Absolutely!
[About XDA developers] n0j0e:
For me not. On Home / Watchin it tooks me to the latest, newest post. On the Alert section it works correctly and tooks me to the first unread post.

But thread title is hard to read.. too short sometimes. On Watchin the thread titles are not shorted!
[About XDA developers] BillGoss:
I find that I have to have Thread preview enabled in Settings for the app to take me to the last unread post rather than the last post.
[About XDA developers] n0j0e:
yep but for me the thread preview is completely useless!
[About XDA developers] orb3000:
Just installed today and looks amazing, good work guys!

Last version I had was from old times.

UPDATE After a few days using it the only weird thing found is that when you get a notification lets say someone liked your post or whatever, then you click on that notification and XDA app does not open to the notification itself but just open app in main window, not good i guess
[About XDA developers] IamTheBRAVE:
Just noyiced there is a "similar threads" brlow new post box instead of new posts. Cool👍
[About XDA developers] IamTheBRAVE:
A couple of hiccups:

1) i had a leftover quote from a previous message that i did not use. When adding another quote from a different thread, i cannot remove the old one (grayed out button). The only way is to insert both, than delete all message content and add the quote again (then, it appears alone in multi-quote box)

2) after inserting a quote, it appears similar to a link box, if i try to delete it with backspace, it deletes the body of the message but not the box and member name (the box remains)
[About XDA developers] svetius:
What you're running into is that this app is half native, but half webview. This is done for performance reasons (loading thousands of posts locally on your phone would be very slow, so for heavier tasks, we use webview). There's not much we can do about this...yet. In the future, more and more of the app will be native. One thing you might want to try to mess around with that might make things feel better for you, is to hit your avatar on the bottom, Settings>Thread Preview (turn off).
[About XDA developers] svetius:
yes that's new. :)
[About XDA developers] IronTechmonkey:
Is the split between webview and native related to this issue?

In this thread and some but not most others: https://xdaforums.com/t/mixplorer-q-a-and-faq-user-manual.3308582/

Thread original post at the top of each page, even last page which might have only one or 2 new posts.

Thread page numbers and navigation links are below the typically long OP but before the active posts in the thread, in other words in a spot where no one’s going to find it, they will just scroll by it.

Even on the first page the original post is above the page numbers and navigation, which are between posts one and 2.

I could see reasons for trying to make people read the OP but if this is intentional then in this manner it actually does more to disrupt continuity. I’m hoping it’s just a growing pain that can be fixed.
[About XDA developers] mrrocketdog:
hey @svetius how you doing today?

everythings good i hope.
[About XDA developers] IronTechmonkey:
In reference to issue with original post appearing at top of all pages of some threads with navigation buttons below it and between it and other posts

https://xdaforums.com/t/check-out-t...ink-app-rolling-out-now.4199599/post-84745969

Yesterday when I attempted to navigate directly to a page number I was taken to a different page. I dismissed that as a one-off but just now read from another user who experienced the same thing. The last time that symptom occurred was when the site was being re-indexed.

If there is any setting or change that I missed in the app or user settings that affects this please let me know, likewise whether or not this change is intentional and unavoidable or if there is more detail that would be helpful.

Also, FWIW in the list of watched threads the thread in question has a question mark in circle icon above it (where we would see sticky and lock labels which are seen elsewhere). I've not been able to find that icon on any other thread in any other list.

Above symptom bears similarity to this:
