RE: eSteem iOS App First Impressions!
Thank you Jerry for your valuable time to put this review!
Advanced login: It allows you to scan QR code of private key right from steemit, would you mind iOS version and device type, eSteem version so that we can try to find what caused the crashes.
Posting: Great points, Submit a Story is available on side menu below user menu as well as on top right menu. You are right, easy posting option would give much better user experience. With next release, will make sure to have it easily accessible location!
Scheduling: Scheduling post works if you provided Active private key as well as Posting private key on Advanced login. With Active key you are able to give permission to eSteem schedule post. Note: your keys are always stays on your device, never leaves it. They are safe as long as no one has physical access to your device, even that can be avoided with PIN code.
PIN code: Another great find, yes if you decided not to set PIN code, it would be to first set and then disable. Not intuitive enough, yes will be working on that :)
Will be looking into all these points with next release! Thank you!
@good-karma thank you for commenting on the post here within just two hours of posting and your patience with me forgetting to include critical information such as my device type!
I have an iPhone 5s model ME342LL/A on iOS 10.3.2.
Thank you for mentioning the QR code because I forgot that Steemit shows that with the keys and awesome programming to include that for signing in! For scheduling, I including both the posting and the active key when signing in but the scheduling still would not go through. I will sign out and try the QR codes to sign in. Every time I logged in the app locked for several minutes and I had to reload it to get in.
Love all the energy you have invested in making an amazing mobile app both on iOS and Android! Excited to see the continued development!
is it normal, that i can't follow, comment and upvote with the app?
Broadcast error, try again!
"rizatr", "posting"
Try logout and login back! Please also read common mistakes and issues to learn more.
Ok a simple advanced relog with the QR code was the solution
sorry mas I nupang nanyak why my post is never in upvoted
Thank you, appreciate that... It really helps to test things before next release. Also please make sure you have latest version of app, v1.4.7 can be seen from About page within app. Scheduling post should work for any duration and any number of times, no limits. Checked server logs, it looks like server got overloaded couple of times yesterday, perhaps that caused some issue during your tests. Please give it a try again. Am working on more improvements, will consider adding 6 digit pin code.
Thanks for making it! It's waaaay better than nothing even with a few bugs!
It's so great how you're all working together. Making eSteem more user friendly will boom the community. Thanks so much!
Really appreciate all the work you put into the app!
I love the app too and the fact that is had functions not yet available on the website. My iOS version freezes up regularly and I have to close it. I'm running 10.3.2
Thanks John, could you elaborate, what action or pages causes freezes? Details really help to find a cause and improve/fix it...
Sure. And wow you are good at customer service! The freezing is a bit tricky to explain and it feels like it might be a memory thing. Pages with lots of photos turn white as soon as I try to scroll down. After using the app for a bit, small things start to happen like a button (vote-up, reply, etc) won't work or a page won't scroll. I can still use the back button and navigate to other places when that happens, but eventually the responsiveness or functionality drops to a point where I just close the app and restart it and things work better again.
