RE: Points in new eSteem Mobile 2.1

in #esteem5 years ago

I have been using the new version of the app since it was available in the play store. I was never able to use the app for commenting and making post effectively. Some things that I have observed so far.

  • The app crashes and closes quite often.
  • When I'm writing an article or when I'm writing a comment, it closes. Sometimes I lose what I write. Issue is catastrophic.
  • I'm unable to do a select all in my mobile in the content editor.
  • I feel that there should be a warning before we navigate from the writing window. Sometimes when I hit the back button by mistake twice, I'm navigated to home screen and my content is gone.
  • It will be nice to have an auto save feature in article writing window instead of me hitting the save button once in a while. That also has inconsistencies. I'm unable to see if it really got saved or not. The button is not turning green.
  • I noticed that whenever there is a notification, my current window will be closed and I will be redirected to the home page of the application.
  • I find it very hard to do comments on the posts because of this issue.
  • When there is a notification popup on my mobile and if I click on that, I'm just taken to the home page of the app. It would be nice if I'm taken to the notification page.
  • I would be happy to use the pin feature only when I use my wallet or when I make a post or comment. If it keeps asking me every time I open the app, it is not user friendly but sometimes annoying.

The application is definitely great and far better than the previous version. Kudos to that. It will be great if the above issues are fixed. The issue is so bad, I couldn't even post this comment using esteem app. I instead used partiko app. Thanks for this wonderful app @good-karma.

Hey bala, thanks for taking time and writing your feedback.

  • Please try new version and let me know if you still get these issues.
  • You might have been using really old version, we do have autosave feature that keeps content intact.
  • Good point about changing button color if content is saved or not, we will consider this in next release.
  • Notification redirections should be fixed in this latest release, please give it a try and let me know.
  • Pin code is there for security purpose, we don't want someone finding your phone and using your account, we will see if we can give option to ask it every X hour or so type of settings, it will add complexity to user experience but we will think about it.

Thanks again and looking forward to hear more of your feedback! 😉 🙏

Sorry for spamming your post with so many replies. I found one more issue. If I update an existing reply, some characters go missing. For every update I do, the characters go missing. Please check one of my previous replies. I'm unable to edit the reply and add the missing characters. If I do so, it again disappears.

I have seen this problem earlier when I try to update an already published post using esteem app. For every update I do, some content from the article will disappear.

Thank you for your report! We will look into that!

In my previous comment I'm trying to add two images. But after I hit the reply/update button, the second image disappears. This is the second image I tried to add.

Edit: Unable to add the second image at all. 5th time I'm tryin

I have completely uninstalled and reinstalled the app. Now it looks a bit stable. I will continue to use it more frequently and provide you another feedback.

I wish to see Esteem more powerful so that I can be dependent on esteem for all mobile related operations. Thanks for the reply @good-karma.

I'm just trying out all the options in the application. The crash is not very frequent now. I was able to reproduce one scenario where crash happened. When I went to notification section and hit the tick mark in the right side, it keeps loading for a moment and then closes the app. Screenshot below. @good-karma

It might have to with fetching notifications, we have pushed some fixes, if you restart app, you should be getting improvements. Let me know if notification crash issue is fixed. Thanks

In my previous comment I'm trying to add two images. But after I hit the reply/update button, the second image disappears. This is the second image I tried to add.

Edit: Unable to add the second image at all. 5th time I'm trying. This is the image id of the latest upload. z0evo2032i.png

Second image upload, that's new one but we will check this as well
