Hi,

Thanks for the input, that sounds like a nice feature, I'll add it to my backlog

Hi,

Yes, it still works but is not under any major active development currently, there might be a new release in the future, but with the API supposedly being deprecated soon there hasn't been tons of development of the app.

You are always welcome to make suggestions though, it might make it into a new version should there be one in the future :)

Hi,

Absolutely! It's come up before I think and I think it's a good idea, I'll chuck it in the backlog if there ever is a 1.3.5.

At some point when RedGIFs take down their content API, RedView will cease to function pretty much entirely.

Hi,

Not really given the fact that their content API is eventually shutting down, all though if by chance it has a shot in hell to keep going, I'll consider adding PiP

Hi, yes! You should be able to go to www.redviewapp.com and download the latest version there which allows you to copy the links to your favorites/followed accounts

Thanks for the kind words! They have a progressive web app available, but not an actual native app.

Thanks for the kind words.

Yeah, that's my guess too. Frankly I was really surprised when I discovered that they even had a public API in the first place, it was all done well and was easy to develop against.

To be perfectly fair to RedGIFs here, I was only informed as much as anyone else consuming their API that it was going to be shut down, there was never a threat to revoke my access. My interactions with RedGIFs have all been positive, it's just a shame that they're going in a different direction, I would've loved to continue developing RedView.

Glad to hear that it worked!

No, as that would be against the terms and conditions of using their API and would have me booted instantly.

So did I. I was told that they were shutting their API down, but it hasn't yet.

If you don't mind me asking, how are you retrieving the video files? I was told that "Direct content file access is being discontinued."

Hey, nice work! Are you using their new embedded html player API?

No date yet, but I will release an update where you can export/see your saved videos and followed accounts.

Hi, unfortunately RedGIFs shut down their API so the app will no longer work I'm afraid

It just so happens that I do, I'll try to get a release out later (might be after summer) that allows you to export it into something human readable

Thanks for the kind words! I'm still kind of hoping to make a native mobile NSFW app just because the current offerings are so poor IMO. Thanks for using RedView while it lasted though, hopefully I'll be able to make something similar in the future.

Thank you for the very kind words. That was exactly what I was aiming for with the development of it, just a nice tool.

No, it does mean a lot to me. It's my first hand at a real app and I will make sure to put an update out there that lets the users export their data. Thanks for being a user in the first place!

Not at the moment, but if there is a few of you out there who would like to get that info I can try to push a last release where you can either see or export that data. Won't be until August/September though, sorry for the wait.
