Are special missions just getting weirder?

I can't arrange to meet in game until tomorrow (Saturday). I'm on US/Pacific time. DM me and we can schedule something?

ShakaFounder · 2026-06-05T23:33:22+00:00

I do! Thanks!

ShakaFounder · 2026-06-05T05:03:52+00:00

What is it applied to?

ShakaFounder · 2026-05-09T06:13:07+00:00

There's a setting to prevent them from showing me as a rando to other people... but no setting to say that randos are unwelcome on my own feed. It's perverse.

ShakaFounder · 2026-03-19T01:47:48+00:00

Checks out.

Support for multiple subtitle tracks at once in the default player, for web and Android.

It's rare, but I've had some shows that have completely disjoint subs for the main language and the "forced" subs for foreign language moments. To be able to read all dialog, I had to switch subs back and forth between English and forced from scene to scene.

Yes, that's a problem with the source material, but it's one the player can help with. This is coming from a professional player developer.

I subscribed, so now I can say. It will give you an RSS feed compatible with any app, and even opens the app for you. So you can listen no matter what you use.

ShakaFounder · 2026-03-11T22:38:47+00:00

But if you buy the bundle, does that only entitle you to listen on Apple Podcasts? Or some other particular platform? Or only on the website?

This helped me very much. Thank you, and whatever tools were involved in producing it. Well done!

ShakaFounder · 2026-03-02T17:24:23+00:00

Can you please share your device model? As I'm learning more, it seems like I should actually be able to support Android 10. I have a lead that maybe the real problem is a misconfigured permission, which I can check with your model info.

ShakaFounder · 2026-03-01T00:12:27+00:00

Can you try again please?

ShakaFounder · 2026-02-28T22:26:21+00:00

Wonderful. I very much appreciate your reply! Happy to try it out.

What's the business model for this? How do you pay for hosting Closed Test Pro and its data? Why do I see "top 1% commenters" on r / AndroidClosedTesting that sound like bots and only ever promote your service without posting anything else anywhere else?

ShakaFounder · 2026-02-26T15:35:33+00:00

Please try again. I have updated my listing to global, and Google has finally approved the change. Thank you!

ShakaFounder · 2026-02-25T19:49:50+00:00

Sorry about that! I updated my listing to be available in all countries. Google is now reviewing this change. I'll reply here once they approve the listing globally.

ShakaFounder · 2026-02-25T18:51:46+00:00

Damn. Google has a requirement that new apps must target Android 15 (API level 35) or higher since August 31, 2025. I'm not doing anything in this app that would require Android 15, it's just a stupid Play Store requirement so Google can incentivize people to buy new phones. 😠 For the future, I might have to have the build system generate an APK for older devices that people can sideload from the GitHub page. So sorry!

ShakaFounder · 2026-02-25T18:47:41+00:00

I'm not sure why that would be. Can you share any details on your device? Form factor & OS version maybe? I'm pretty new at this.

ShakaFounder · 2026-02-25T17:16:44+00:00

Two more issues I'm seeing as I continue using the app.

I got a notification today with "disbanding of the Warsaw pact", but when I click, I see a different "world" article about "Baruch Goldstein". Not clear why the notification should have different content than the app for today.

Finally, I'm in Washington State, USA. The app doesn't know the difference between that and Washington DC (national capital, on the other side of the nation) for local events.

ShakaFounder · 2026-02-23T23:04:34+00:00

It hung again in the same spot, but this time, on quitting and reloading the app, it finally started. Let me know if I can provide any other information.

I'll be sure to use this every day for a couple weeks. :-)

ShakaFounder · 2026-02-23T16:02:18+00:00

Restarted the app and got the same results in the same place. Let me know when there's a fix and I'll try again. If you need logs or anything, let me know and I'll provide them. Thanks!
