eSteem App Feedback - iOS bugs & issues
This is a list of 5 bugs with screenshots/descriptions within the eSteem App, and some general feedback for the developers, cc @good-karma
Device: IPhone 7 Plus
OS: iOS 10.3.2
eSteem App Version: 1.4.5
-
Clicking a format button in edit mode dismisses the keyboard.
This one is fairly annoying if you're wanting to add any formatting to a comment/post as the keyboard is dismissed when you press any of the formatting buttons.
-
External link in an article opens webpage without ability to go back
This bug is annoying as once you've clicked an external link, there is no way to get go Back. I have to force quit the app and restart.
-
Back button doesn't work when editing a Post
In the screen capture below, notice the back button press after going into edit mode for a post.
-
Upvoting from Posts/Replies sometimes crashes the app
In the screen capture below, the 5th upvote crashes the app. I'm not positive but I imagine this could be related to not handling the upvote rate limiting properly within the app.
-
Odd behavior for replying to comment
This happens when replying to a comment that is very long vertically either with lots of text or media
-
Other thoughts
- Articles with really long content or really long comment section cause the app to slow down considerably and sometimes lock up completely.
- Finding tags is rough and search isn't a great UX to surface tags, especially popular ones. There should be a tag list somewhere in the app that's easy to browse, choose and dismiss (maybe a gutter menu on the right side in a list of articles?)
- I have notifications turned on for follows and sometimes I get double notifications for new followers.
Hope this helps, thank you for all the work on the App(s) so far! Please let me know if I can do anything to help out.
