Connect 1.0.75 beta sign up
Hi, I'm working on the next release and there's a lot of changes so rather than just release it straight away I'd like your help! Hopefully this way those that don't want the newest features can enjoy a more stable experience and those that want to play with new features can do so as well.

changelog:
1.0.82 Changelog:
Pushed a hotfix for the 301 errors issue (1.0.81, should be live now). And thanks for the screenshot! I'm checking it out now.
For the comments getting chopped it's the preview view not being able to scroll?
Thanks for the fixes it got a bit better, but still has issues
Post settings (in the info you talk about cards but the title is about the generell posts?)
Comment settings
Generell
Not sure if its new but the sticky top bar is very welcome. I was a huge fan of rif.
I've adjusted the home button behaviour on the latest release and it should be more consistent now. (Goes to whichever page is default).
I'll keep this comment here so as to not spam with beta updates but I've just pushed beta 1.0.77 which addresses some of the feedback I've gotten here. the comment navigator buttons should behave a bit better and hopefully the issue with settings being blown away is resolved.
I'm hoping to just do some more tests today and possibly package it up as a 1.1.0 release for tomorrow.
Issues so far
Unfortunately Connect's settings aren't transferred and applied to this version. That's part and parcel with betas I guess. Eventually, it would be nice to have have a settings import/export feature. This would be useful in a variety of ways, particularly for those testing. If you decide to add it, I can understand if it takes some time; at your convenience.
I followed the link on Android and it took me to the version I already had installed and I didn't see any "Join Beta" options. When will the new test version be out.
Edit: the second link just says I'm not able to access the software.
Edit 2: The exact message I get when using the second link is
"App not available for this account Your account isn't currently eligible for this app's testing program."
How do I add my email to the testing program?
Edit 3: everything appears to be working correctly now. Thanks!
I'll look into it! Not sure what's causing that. Hmm.
pushing updates on play store takes a while so have patience for now
The same thing happened for me.
Edit: sign up link is now working for me.
It worked for me. I opened it in the Play store app and I scrolled to here where there was a join button:
I just tried again and it is indeed working now, I'm glad whatever the issue was has been fixed.
I'm on the beta now.
Love the bottom navigation.
One thing I've noticed, I tapped on the connect community and it took me into it, but I couldn't back out of it either using the back gesture or by taking the back arrow at top left.
I had to tap home.
This is the BEST lemmy app!
Some wish list items I have:
Amazing app!!!
+1 for saving the sort option
Sweet. Applied for beta. Cheers
Signed up :)
€: how would you like to have feedback?
This thread is good!
It seems it always uses active for listing and doesn't change when you select a different sort
The latest beta (84) update nothing loads anymore :/
€: fixed
Newer version now is working.
I'm having the same problem with all communities. It's says 'Empty because all posts are being filtered". I've checked my filters and they're definitely that restrictive.
The only way I can get the Connect to load any threads is by opening them from either my comment history or saved posts.
Latest update fixes this.
On Beta:
missing some communities I'm subscribed to from the subscribed list. For example..lemmyconnect lol
missing communities I moderate
it'd be great to be able to favorite communities directly from the search without having to subscribe to them
Hi, on the latest beta (79) are you still missing any communities? I tried to fix that issue.
I think you got it!! All communities there
Joined the beta!
It appears post titles run off the screen on profile view now, with no linebreak.
On that note, I love the new comment select view! I don't like that it collapses on its own when I upvote though, I feel like it should stay open?
Regardless, thanks for your hard work Kuro! Connect is getting way better every update.
Thanks for the feedback! This has been now fixed on the latest beta (1.0.78)
Thank you for this feedback!
Should now be fixed on the latest beta! Only fullwidth view has the dividers now.
Nope! I'll take a look
Such a great app with constant updates, keep ot up dev
Am I already a beta tester since I already have the 1.0.76 version? And google play has always said I am a beta tester.
Thoughts about 1.0.76:
Going to take a pass on those navigation buttons now.
Liking it still! Good work!is there a way to swipe an image away in any direction, like Liftoff's implementation? I think other 3PA Reddit apps did it like that as well.
Bug report v84:
Comment reply doesn't work anymore. (Swipe & Button)
Ok thanks! Taking a look now.
Fixed in v88 🙌
