I’ve had the same happen on both my iPad and my iPhone.

Seeing the same on my iPad. Cannot access the smileys at all.

Another issue I found on my iPad is that the app doesn’t seem to fully support the apple keyboard. I can of course use it to type and use the track pad to move around but the app seems to not allow me to use the track pad to select and highlight text. It also doesn’t allow me to just hold the delete key down to delete larger portions of text. I have to continually tap the delete key and go letter by letter.

Thanks for the report guys. I’m keeping records of all this, but it will take some time. I’ve gotta buy a keyboard

Ok I just submitted a new update with fixes for the smilies on iPad and potentially fix the YouTube issue. Let me know 😀

Fixed the smiley issue on iPad, but unfortunately brought back the PW/Login issue on my iPhone. Was logged out after the update, and can’t log back in. 🤦🏻&zwj;♂️

I’m right now playing with the login to fix it for 10” guy.
You might have caught it while I was making changes.
It should work for you if you try now

'Cane · 12-13-2022, 12:47 PM

I force quit the app the tried again and I was able to log in. Crisis averted.

'Cane · 12-13-2022, 12:48 PM

Also, fixed the bug with the notification badge not going away.

Esteban · 12-13-2022, 03:14 PM

I notice that when I post a YouTube video that the new app just posts a link instead of inbedding the video like it does on the desktop version or the old app. Can this be fixed?

PS - it doesn't always do this but it does sometimes do it.

Do you have a post where this happened that I can look at?

It happened in this post, but I went to my laptop after and edited the post so the video would be inbedded.

This probably won't work for you. Let me know if you need another video. I'll use the app and do it right away.

Here's one that I just posted from the app. If you look at it on your laptop it just shows the link.

The auto play of embedded YouTube videos has been fixed. I can also confirm that the smiley icon is now visible on the iPad. Thanks for the quick fixes!

He means that when scrolling a thread, YouTube videos would play without any user input. I had the same issue. Seems to have been fixed with the latest update though.

Haha I know what you mean. Yes this is a more long standing bug that I can’t seem to crack yet, but will keep plugging away at it. No eta on a fix for it yet

'Cane · 12-13-2022, 09:10 PM

Thanks for being responsive and working to smash these bugs. So far I like the improvements in the the app, functionally and aesthetically. Different doesn’t always mean good, but you’ve done well here.
