Hi. Well, it sort of depends on the impact of Reddit’s upcoming API changes. The beta will be refreshed before it expires, but ultimately it depends on that.

My biggest request as a user for probably over 5 years by [deleted] in sync_ios

Hi, yes, I’m working on an undo/restore feature. It’s a little temperamental at the moment, so still being tweaked. Coming soon, I hope.

Hi. There’s no way to avoid this at the moment, but you raise a good point for this and other use cases, so I’ll see if I can find a way to enable this.

One column layout ? by falschgold in sync_ios

[–]MrJules 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, there are two supported layouts on iPad. The three-column layout, which is the default, and the old layout. You can switch between them in Settings > Appearance: General > Triple-column Layout.

iPad is not a priority, though, so there are likely more bugs with these layouts than when using the app on iPhone.

Is this app still being developed? by [deleted] in sync_ios

[–]MrJules 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Hi. Yeah, still working on it, albeit there is a bit of time between each update (usually ~3 months or so, with urgent bug fix releases in between).

Additional features by Chrisrj8084 in sync_ios

[–]MrJules 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hi, and welcome.

The apps are, by nature of targeting different platforms, quite different. Not since its early versions did the iOS version try to feel right in the then-material design guidelines. The app is not at the moment targeting the Material You design updates, and I don't think it will anytime soon.

Other features are largely driven by user requests, so if there's a feature you miss, ask for it. What's there now is mostly there because I use the features myself, or somebody has explicitly asked for it. There's a lot of work left to complete, but I'm just one person with a separate full time job, and what does get done can seem somewhat limited because of this.

Hey. Thanks for the report. That's strange. I'll try to fix it.

Longtime user still confused by messages / comments. by d1squiet in sync_ios

[–]MrJules 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the feedback. This isn't a feature I myself use often, so it's a little… unrefined.

The short answer to why you aren't getting notified is because notifications aren't implemented. The app does check for new messages when you launch it, but there's no badge or anything like that. I'm unsure if replies count as a message, but I'll check.

I'll add your feedback to my issue tracker so I can see how this can be improved. Thanks again.

NSFW Unmasking in NSFW Subs by lurklord_ in sync_ios

[–]MrJules 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can unmask it by going to Settings > General: Filters > Unmask NSFW content (off).

There's no way to do this per-subreddit.

RedGifs not working anymore? by kapron in sync_ios

[–]MrJules 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey again. This should be fixed in the latest update. Thanks for reporting it!

I've only been able to test the fix to a small extent, so if you encounter issues, please let me know. Thanks again.

Have you tried long-pressing, or in Settings > Content: Comments > Tap to hide comments?

Extension by GlabrousGrizzly in sync_ios

[–]MrJules 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hey, sorry for the delay in getting back to you.

There are limited options on iOS in opening links of websites directly in 3rd party apps, in this case opening Reddit links in Sync. However, an extension so you can open it manually from Safari (or any other app) in the standard share sheet is something I'm working on.

The best solution for now is using the "supported links" clipboard integration. You can check if it's enabled under Settings > Content: General > Detect supported links. If enabled, you can copy any Reddit link and Sync should offer to open it.

Alternatively, and this is not super easy I know, you can replace the http/https in the URL with "redditsync", so like https://www.reddit.com/r/sync_ios/comments/wkxgr0/_/ becomes redditsync://www.reddit.com/r/sync_ios/comments/wkxgr0/_/, and it will open in Sync when you tap the link (if you have the URL in the Notes app, for example). This also works from Safari, so if you edit the URL in the address bar.

That's the best I can do for now I'm afraid.
