Wow. Very cool. Will look into this for sure. Is there a quick link to the benefits and features (summary form?). I assume we can host and post images to our blogs via this application?

Yes, exactly and many more! Please see Feature set posts above, they are tagged in #esteem-features and future posts will cover more feature set for both mobile and desktop version of app.

Thank you. Will work through them all and appreciate your response. Great job.

No problem, Please feel free to report issues or request features you would like to see 😉 We constantly prioritize features and add new ones...

Will keep that in mind. Will download ASAP. Thanks again.

I haven't been following development closely for a while, but as far as I know, Steem still lacks a way to indicate the language of the post. In my opinion, that is essential feature and much more important than translating the UI.

Without a clear way of indicating the language of the post, it's really hard to create any non-English communities. Using tags to indicate the language is just a temporary hack and should be discarded as soon as possible.

When the language of the post is recorded in the blockchain, UIs can also hide all posts that are written in a language user doesn't understand. It makes the user experience much better when people don't see posts they don't understand.

Any ideas how we could get the devs implement this? There is open issue in GitHub but so far nothing has been happening. Maybe if eSteem implemented this first, that would make Steemit devs to do it too?

Valid point and I think UI language options are start of just that. When more users see UI in their own language and write posts in their native language, more we can extract and show content with optional settings (only show posts that are in their language). And communities will grow around that languages with time.
As for recording language in blockchain, it is already possible, only UIs need to add that in json_metadata during submission of new post. I have made note of this and will be adding this feature soon! Thank you!

Great!

I've been waiting for months to somebody implement this. I'd like to promote Steemit to my Finnish friends but before there is a way to post and find other posts in Finnish it will just give them a bad first impression.

BTW, please use ISO 639-3 for the language codes. It contains all spoken languages so it will be perfect choice to be a standard.

Right now we have one Finnish contributor ;)

Onward and upward. If esteem keeps evolving, what will Busy be for?

The more apps we have, the better! More diverse users, more innovation, more features, possibilities, etc. 😊 We are collaborating and keep increasing our quality of the products!

GREAT job, thanks for the update again and namaste :)

Great!! I will try this.

How long is the loading screen supposed to be? It doesn't seem to open when I start the app (on iPhone). I get the logo and I am still waiting.

There was small bug on Android versions, which was not discovered in our iOS testings. Have you tried to restart app? If issue is still persisting, please let us know. We will push same fixes in upcoming v1.3.6, thank you!

I am really excited to try this app! But it's just kinda stuck on the first screen and won't proceed. (iOS)

It looks iOS version also suffered from recent bug, we will push fixes right away. It should be available within 48 hours. Sorry for inconvenience! Stay tuned 😉

Edit: I have just pushed new build to iOS AppStore which should be available soon after its review. Somehow, latest version have issue on few devices, not on my devices though! Anyway, once fix is available, I will comment.

Success! Thank you. I really like the way this app looks! I am Excited for more updates.

Thank you @darkflames, yes more improvements are coming

Thank you for posting @good-karma. Really appreciate all the work you do. Looking forward to trying the update.

Still having the same issue as the last update @good-karma, when I go to submit a story, the screen gets blocked... and when trying to paste, it will not take. Thanks for the continued efforts.

Can you please share screenshot?

Oh thank you! I see the issue now... working on fix.

Great customer service, wish everyone worked like this.
