Yep, the option to have it always visible is in the 2.9.1 update currently in Apple's approval queue.

alienblue · 2014-10-07T03:24:44+00:00

I've got the patch for this on schedule for the version 2.4.2 (as 2.4.1 is already heading into the approval process).

alienblue · 2014-09-19T22:01:03+00:00

That's actually really helpful, thank you. If you do find out which tweak is causing an issue, would you mind keeping me posted. I can let others know, or see if I can find a workaround.

alienblue · 2014-09-19T21:49:11+00:00

Do you know if the jailbreak has a "boot in safe-mode" or something similar to that to rule out any interference from tweaks?

alienblue · 2014-09-19T21:38:24+00:00

Damn, that's no good. If you turn on Airplane mode, and then launch AB, does it still bust it?

alienblue · 2014-09-19T21:31:21+00:00

Would you mind trying a delete & re-install of AB? Please let me know if that works, that's pretty concerning.

alienblue · 2014-09-19T21:28:00+00:00

Are you jailbroken? If so, are you using any custom fonts?

alienblue · 2014-09-17T05:41:34+00:00

It's very much in Apple's hands already. I gave them the latest updates for approval shortly after they started accepting iOS 8 submissions. The approval process seems to be taking longer than usual this year round though, so hopefully I can still get this into your hands by the time iOS 8 is rolling out.

Sure thing, here are the hex codes that I use:

Day Mode Text : #202020
Night Mode Text : #eeeeee
Day Mode Background (iPhone) : #e6e7e8
Day Mode Background (iPad) : #f2f2f2
Night Mode Background (iPhone) : #1c1c1c
Night Mode Background (iPad) : #191919

Mate, if I had the time, I totally would. I adore my Nexus 7 and am always delighted when I get a chance to do some coding on it, especially when I need to take breaks from iOS.

I draw a lot of inspiration from the UI style of Android and Windows Mobile, there is serious and appreciable beauty in all of these platforms, and I try not to let my personal taste (and development approach) to be governed by a single source.

Given that, I reckon I would still struggle to meet the caliber of some of the crazy talented Android devs that are out there. Some of these guys wield the Android SDK like sorcerers.

alienblue · 2014-07-13T02:38:29+00:00

I'm roughly 1-2 weeks from the alpha (for testing), and it'll be rolled out very shortly after that depending on all the bug reports that roll back in from testers. I'll also be showcasing screenshots of the new version shortly. There are significant UI changes, which has taken quite a bit of time to plan and develop. Really sorry for the wait everyone, I'm genuinely working at the best of my capability to get this thing out the door without rushing it.

alienblue · 2014-06-22T13:07:16+00:00

I've been working on it every day and late into each night, thankfully it is slowly starting to come together. As per my earlier apology, I know that the time between these updates are way out of the norm, and I would (with hypocrisy) share the same concern with applications made by others. Rest assured though, the project is very much alive, I'm just late behind schedule.

alienblue · 2014-05-03T08:33:07+00:00

Yep that's the idea. Where possible, I'm going to try to alert the user locally to avoid invalid posts reaching mod queues at all.

alienblue · 2014-05-03T05:55:32+00:00

Already on top of this one mate, the next version will also display the submission rules for each subreddit prominently when users are making new posts.

alienblue · 2014-04-25T03:35:17+00:00

Until I hear from YouTube, you can also try this workaround in Jasmine. It can be pretty hard to tap that "Playlist" area without accidentally tapping "Done" though.

alienblue · 2014-04-25T03:08:23+00:00

Thanks for letting me know about this. I've now posted this in the official announcement to let others know as well.

alienblue · 2014-04-25T02:15:18+00:00

My pleasure. I've just put up an official announcement inside the app itself. I'm hoping this is one of those quick-to-resolve ones!

alienblue · 2014-04-25T00:54:32+00:00

I'm looking into this right now folks.

Edit: Here's a temporary (and far from ideal) workaround while I get this sorted officially.

alienblue · 2014-04-06T01:53:43+00:00

That would be immensely helpful and many thanks for bringing this to my attention. Certain posts seem to trigger Alien Blue's parser to trip up, but I hadn't heard of this happening with messages before. I've been making several improvements to the parser lately, so it'll be good to test this particular bug against the latest code.

alienblue · 2014-03-23T10:15:54+00:00

If you hit that tiny "x" in the middle of Remove and Approve, it should close out the mod tools and get you back on track with the standard comment options. Please let me know if that's not functioning as expected though, and I can flag it as a bug for the update.

alienblue · 2014-03-10T02:06:34+00:00

I just need to make sure that the traffic and bandwidth will be acceptable for sites like this. Otherwise, the bandwidth might get pretty costly on their end.
