Been using the app since January and find it tends to lag and sometimes hang when loading Wallet. Also, when claiming Rewards (although it completes the process despite the jam). I have to close the app and reopen and it's back to normal. Doesn't happen all the time though! Just an fyi :) Great work so far!
Thank you for the input! You are right, I have received numerous bug reports and mostly it looks like device is running out of fast memory when it crashes. I am working on performance improvements with next release so new release won't be rushed, will only be published after thorough tests.
Of course, after next release, please feel free to reach out if issues are still persistent. Btw, with memory I mean fast memory (RAM) where most of the application operations are being kept during usage. 😉
I cant wait to see eSteem be the most used android app in app store. This app will make you a billonaire, mark my word. I just want to be part of the success story. I wish I can partner!!!
Thanks! :)
You are partner, every user who is using eSteem is the partner and contributor to the network. By promoting and helping network to reach more mainstream adoption, growing user-base ultimately will help us all!
Please I am patiently waiting for the promised update that can make me use eSteem only. Now I cant upvote, follow or unfollow with mine. I believe I am not the only one this is affecting. You can resort to doing peace meal update instead of waiting for many bug correction before you update. That will keep more people to use eSteem.
You are right, that's why next week release will come addressing bugs reported by users, proper error message handling, new language updates, additions and couple new features...
eSteem desktop v1 is available and should be functional after changing websocket address from Settings page to wss://steemd.steemit.com.
But v2 is in progress which will be announced soon with initial beta release...
The simpler it is built, the better. Remember that everyone here is not a tech geek. Keep it simple. The issue of changing socket now is not sounding simple to me.
Nice add ons... by the way I forgot the site to send bug alerts to... so I will quickly mention that the sound on embedded videos in posts do not work. However the issues I had previously have been taken care of by downloading a new app. Thanks for your dedication to the app.
Even yesterday, eSteem was a good companion on our Father's Day walk, as I have already reported. Only the app still crashes sometimes, and closes by itself. Also your tip I took into account and made a complete reinstallation. But the result remains the same. Nevertheless, the app does what it should and is an excellent means to always be up to date. Thank you for your excellent work my friend!
Thank you that menu was heavy to find. Maybe it's a good idea, to add an option to the settings. Because I was searching this option there. For me it's logic to search the option in settings 😂
I also have found a bug for the night mode. This looks not so nice but isn't important to fix.
Ok, trying to be helpful here. Since most of the things I identified are already reported here (data consumption and crashes due to loads of increase of memory cache for the app).
The app looks stunning, and it has an amazing flow to explore content from posts (one of the things I value most is how fast something allows me to learn). I would even enhance it with a customised selection of topics added to some swiping functionality to move between topic groups.
Other cool features to add:
(Android) NFC "follow me" and "resteemit"
(iPhone) AirDrop?? "follow me" and "resteemit"
Posts around me (allow optionally GPS to inform about your location and also discover who's arround posting on Steem)
More swiping (like going back and forward on history) and fewer menu jumps (I believe it's something I like.. so this one is personal).
Fingerprint unlocking (additional to pin unlocking)
Read post (synthetic voice reading the post)
Write from voice (ability to write using voice)
Anyway.. I am actively promoting this around my friends. Amazing work.

looking forward to the next release! just got a new phone and it's fresh with memory :( but i'm sure you'll figure it out. and thank you!

ohhhhh! lol, don't mind me then. :D

You said it can be used on desktop how? Is there a window version? If yes where can I download it?
eSteem desktop v1 is available and should be functional after changing websocket address from Settings page to wss://steemd.steemit.com.

As I said, it is outdated version wouldn't recommend using it unless you cannot wait v2 :)

Thanks @kyusho! Could you clarify what type of embedded video sound is not working? I have just checked youtube video sound is working...
This was just posted, saw it on eSteem and copied this link... no sound.

More success and progress my friend
Nice to see an app being developed and improved continuously for steemit users.
I have a idea for the iPad version. It would be nice if you can add a split view feature. Nice app and I hope the dark mode comes very fast :)
It is already available, night and day mode is working on existing version! But thank for suggestions I will see what I can do 😉
How can I activate the night mode in the iOS version ?
Top right corner you have menu where you can change theme to Day mode or Night mode.
Thank you that menu was heavy to find. Maybe it's a good idea, to add an option to the settings. Because I was searching this option there. For me it's logic to search the option in settings 😂
I also have found a bug for the night mode. This looks not so nice but isn't important to fix.
Thank you for your help and have a nice Sunday :)
Thank you!
You mean you had difficulty finding Search menu?
Yes this issue was brought to our attention and we have already fixed it and upcoming version will have those fixes ;)
This is great information & thanks for sharing!
Amazing app! Will try to use it daily and give some feedback. Keep the good work.
Thanks, looking forward to it... 😉
