Offline mode (view posts, comment, vote all offline with an offline engine that tracks everything and performs the actions once network is established).
Add upvoted/downvoted posts and comments to saved.
Change homepage from settings.
Setup wizard.
Extremely out of date version check? (Eg. if the app version you are using is over x versions out of date)
Mark post unread
Tag users

Specific user requests

Instead of showing a circle when votes are hidden, show nothing instead.
Some users like to work on multiple posts at the same time, possibly over a long period of time. The request here is a better draft system so managing drafts is easier for this use case.
Change login information in the app
When replying on the view comment reply from inbox-screen, when submitting response, the screen does not update with the new comment. This would be a nice addition to have!
When on the view comment from profile-screen, I often find myself wanting to read the parent of the active comment as well as the comment itself. Additionally, it would be nice to also be able to see ‘sibling comments’, other replies to the comment that this was a reply of.
When making posts under less-than-ideal clients side network conditions/unstable server conditions, the post can sometimes become many times duplicated, potentially by some retrying mechanism. This can be a bit of a mess, and it would be nice if retries were for non-mutating API calls only, or if possible from the Lemmy server’s side, add idempotency so that duplicates get discarded.
Update post when comment is posted. This issue is most apparently when commenting on a post with 0 comments as posting a comment will not cause the comment count to update to 1.
Afd haptic feedback to some actions such as voting and posting/commenting

Stretch features (nice to have but I need to do more research)

Possible integration with mastodon/? (needs research)
Support kbin?
Sync between devices?

Completed features

Support sending content to the app to use for later.
Add "reason" for mod actions.
Add option to reordering comment/post format tools
Support switching instances to any instance (even if you are not sign into that instance).
Add new top level screen which displays your user profile.
Add support for tablets.
Add a way to customize the comment menu (the menu that has the overflow, add comment button and upvote/downvote buttons).
In the multi-community build, indicate which communities you've subscribed to. Also list subscribed communities maybe by default or have some way to only see subscribed communities.
Comment filters (by keyword)
Add a way to customize the post quick actions menu.
Notifications/Push notifications
Mod actions.
Create & edit communities
Add a way to make one action easy to access. Eg. a way to do one tap hide read.
Show publish and modified date in the post header/comment header
Add option to hide all controls by default when in image viewer.
Multi-instance feeds support (eg. Subscribed communities from multiple accounts)
Support for locales other than English
NSFW mode
Update bookmark icon based on whether the item is currently bookmarked or not
Improve controls for post instance switching. Consider things like: adding a banner when the post is not the same instance as the account, better messaging around instance inconsistencies and switching freely between instances on a post.
Better DM UI
Screenshot gifs
Dim read posts.
add a setting to disable/control how many animations play in the app
add a way to see all comments in a comment chain when commenting
add a way to adjust the cache policy
Combine score related settings to be a enum with values (1) hide scores, (2) show scores (3) show up and down votes.
Modify the emoji pack
Toggle to disable rendering post titles with markdown. Reasoning given: some titles have hashtags meant to mean "number" and not "header".
Copy comment button.
Add a way to "go to" a lemmy link. (Useful if the user is viewing lemmy on the browser and wants to see that page in the app).
Add a setting to adjust the size of the image icons for post view layouts that are not full width.
quick access to subscribed communities by one tap instead of tap on home and swipe. (Suggestion was to add subscribed communities to the search page) (I'm holding off on implementing this one for now because I have some cool solutions here but it will take a long time to implement)

Thank you! I look at your roadmaps as an inspirational and motivational texts. I really admire what your Lemmy client looks like, its feature richness and polish... The idea of supporting full offline mode is ambitious and I don't think any (even among paid options) Android Lemmy app supports it, so I'm really awe-struck. Keep going on like this and kudos for the excellent work!

Can I suggest two options?

Automatically trigger the keyboard when making a comment (I swear I'm not that lazy, but many apps do this, so I am always tricked waiting for it to automatically pop up without any interaction on my end lol).
Modify the FAB to your liking, for example, the default option hides read post, holding it up brings up more options or a second action etc.

Greetings!

I'll add (1) for the next release. (2) sounds a lot more involved so it will be on the roadmap. Honestly though (2) is a bit of a departure from my original design intentions of the app. I'll need to think about adding this to the app while still making it intuitive.

[–] kratoz29@lemm.ee 2 points 8 months ago

That's excellent news boss 👍🏻

[–] tenchiken@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Really appreciate the app so far. Some bits I've thought during use so far:

Support for search / direct jump to a searched URL? Example being to search for https://lemmy.world/post/10414304 and jump here. Related: potentially have Android directly open Lemmy instance related links? (I know this one might be impractical!)

Larger in-line image display on the main timeline... I feel like this is already in the settings potentially and I'm just missing it, but that in itself might be an issue or consideration for easily confused folks such as myself.

Great stuff, thank you for your efforts!

I used to have a dev tool when I was first making the app that did this. This use case never occurred to me. I'll add it to the roadmap.

Related: potentially have Android directly open Lemmy instance related links? (I know this one might be impractical!)

This one is (mostly) impossible. Google tightened up security for handling links. Now apps can only handle links from a certain domain if they own that domain (effectively). So if I wanted to handle links from Lemmy.world for instance I would need to contact the admins and ask them to essentially give my app permission to handle their links. I would need to do this for every lemmy instance so you can see how this is pretty difficult and requires a lot of co-operation.

Larger in-line image display on the main timeline… I feel like this is already in the settings potentially and I’m just missing it, but that in itself might be an issue or consideration for easily confused folks such as myself.

Added to the roadmap as well.

Thanks. Btw is it me or is there no option to set a default feed? It always defaults to All for me when I select Subscribed.

And also, where's the source?

[–] idunnololz@lemmy.world 0 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (1 children)

To set a homepage, go to any community or feed you want to be the homepage. Then tap the three dots button (bottom right). Select set as homepage.

The app is close sourced so the source is not available.

[–] Asudox@lemmy.world 0 points 9 months ago (1 children)

There's a github repo for it, so I suppose the source will be available someday?

[–] idunnololz@lemmy.world 0 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (1 children)

The github repo is only for hosting the APK. Every time I do a release push, a script is run to build and generate a signed APK. That APK is then pushed from the private repo to the public one.

This is done because some users prefer to get the app from something that's not Google play.

[–] Asudox@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

I see. Do you plan on releasing the source?

[–] Blaze@discuss.tchncs.de 0 points 9 months ago

Thank you so much for your work

[–] Cutter@programming.dev 0 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I am really enjoying what you have made so far!

One quick suggestion, you should add a link in the app to where we can tip/donate/pay you besides Patreon.

I know that in most apps I am more likely to give money if there is a single quick option rather than a subscription.

[–] idunnololz@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

Oh actually I remember now why I didn't add Kofi. Google is pretty picky about adding different payments methods that aren't google play into the app (because they don't get to take a cut of your income). I've gotten into trouble with this in the past so to avoid it I just don't explicitly link payment/donation methods in the app. That's why there is a "patreons list" screen instead of a page about how to donation. If you are interested in donating on kofi you can find the link on the community description of this community.
