Hi all. With all the feedback yesterday I wanted to make a release sooner rather than later to address some of the feedback I’ve received in order to make Connect even better! Some features I had hoped to get in (Markdown editor, image uploads) but will need some more time. Those will come in an upcoming release. I’ve also uploaded the APK to Apkmirror but it hasn’t yet been reviewed, I’ll post a link once that’s ready.
Features:
- Feature: added setting for text sizes
- Feature: added setting for default comment sorting
- Feature: added the Inbox (thanks @troyunrau@lemmy.ca)
- Feature: Added open in web button at the community level
- Feature: added open in web action item for profiles and post views
- Feature: added unread comment counts to post cards
- Feature: markdown images now expand on click
- Feature: added a refresh button to the community pages when there’s a server issue
- Feature: fullwidth view now scales images to fit instead of displaying cropped
Fixes:
- Bugfix: lemmy.ml posts should now work (they were on a different API version)
- Bugfix: The profile link now works correctly if there are multiple accounts with your same username
- Bugfix: Fixed the list view text being at 80% width
- Bugfix: subscription list is no longer limited to 10 items
- Bugfix resolved an issue where sometimes comments would be duplicated
Misc improvements
- Misc: made comments and sidebar lists more compact
What is upcoming in the next release:
- Markdown editor
- Image uploads
- Download button when viewing images
- Edit button for your comments/posts
- Block functionality for specific users/communities

Thank you for all your feedback and support! -kuroneko
Update after update…You’re so fast! Thank you!
man, looking awesome. great work
New to Connect. Is there a GitHub repo where folks can submit issues and PR’s?
I don’t have a Github setup yet but if you have any issues just ping me here!
Using it now, works very well! Any chance you know why there’s a delay when voting.
Edit: i don’t see a delete comment button, can that be added please :)
Hi, I’ve added a delete button in the most recent version (1.0.31). Thanks for your feedback!
As for the delay, I’m currently waiting for the API response before updating. I can fix that by updating it right away with an assumption I just haven’t implemented it yet. Coming soon.
Awesome, thanks!
saw your post days ago and happy I found it, makes it easier to surf around feddit :) looking forward what stuff to come
THX so much for the fast update, maybe it could be a good idea to add the download function to media posts.
Comment and post edit function would be good too and the ability to mark posts as NSFW
Another good function could be zooming on media pictures with double tap.
Also delete function for comments and posts
Noticed another bug, it doesn’t tell you if someone reply to a comment, it says 0 replies and if someone reply doesn’t notify you.
Jump to next comment button would be good too
Hi, thank you for your feedback! I’ve implemented some of those features now on the latest (1.0.31). Download option on media, comment and post edit functions, delete comment function, reply notifications (in the future a actual notification would be good, for now it just changes the inbox icon colour).

Great job with your development!

Looks like I’m not able to add multiple accounts. If I add Lemmy.ml first, I’m not able to add Beehaw. And vice versa, as I signed out and tested both ways. I have the same username on both.
If there’s a better way/place to leave feedback like this, apologies and please let me know!
Thanks for the feedback! I’ll take a look at that and include it in the next release.
Hi, this is now possible on the latest release (1.0.31). Thanks!
