I really don't. And without actually physically seeing the device, I'm not sure what the next step would be.

I got my hands on an iPod Touch 2G, formatted it and installed OS 3.1.2, and then ran iReddit Free version 2.1.3 off of the app store. I couldn't get it to crash.

Ross replied on December 03, 2009 04:24 to the question "Reddit revolt!" in reddit:

Wow, troll much? There have been some bugs, sure. Most of them have been fixed. Some remain to be fixed.

If you don't want to buy the app, you don't have to. There is a free version. SuckMyNuts indeed.

I'll try and track down the same model this week.

Ross replied on October 13, 2009 16:38 to the problem "iReddit (both free and paid) crashes on startup" in reddit:

You can attach the crash reports stored on your device. There are good posts on google on how to find them. Here's one: http://www.anoshkin.net/blog/2008/09/...

I can't seem to reproduce this on my own device. Would you mind re-installing the app just to see if that fixed the problem?

Ross replied on September 30, 2009 18:23 to the problem ""Unable to Login"" in reddit:

Failed login attempts are being cached for an hour. Try again after an hour, or delete the app and re-install from the app store, which will blow away the cache.

Will be fixed soon.

fixed in iPhone OS 3.0

Ross replied on August 20, 2009 06:33 to the question "comments wont post, stories wont save" in reddit:

Comments do post, there's just a UI bug that prevents them from refreshing the page. It's fixed in 2.1.1 which has been submitted.

Stories do save. But the saved list (and all other lists) are now cached for a few minutes, so what you are seeing is the save list being cached for a few minutes and not reflecting the last few minutes of saving activities. If that proves to be an issue, I'll address it in 2.2.

Ross replied on July 20, 2009 04:35 to the problem "Comment display broken in iReddit 2.0" in reddit:

Fixed in the next release.

Ross replied on July 20, 2009 04:15 to the idea "Condensed bottom toolbar for landscape mode." in reddit:

Fixed. Thanks!

Ross replied on July 14, 2009 05:46 to the problem "Self posts open in Safari with extra "http://www.reddit.com" in the url" in reddit:

Yeah, I've got this fixed and waiting for the next update.

Ross replied on July 11, 2009 23:40 to the question "Make target area for comments icon larger. It's currently almost impossible to touch." in reddit:

I hit it 10 times out of 10. But, I also increased the hit area by about 50% to be on the safe side. Hopefully that helps.

Ross replied on July 11, 2009 18:17 to the question "GUI glitches in 2.0" in reddit:

Definitely want to add hide. Simply didn't get to it this release.

I've encountered the horizontal bar thing. I'm looking into it, but I have no idea right now. That stuff is supposed to all happen automatically.

The reloading more often is part of an effort to be more aggressive about unloading memory when its needed. Webpages take up a lot of the available memory, so sometimes they trigger a memory warning, and we unload that list. The upside is that there are fewer memory related crashes.

I will look into that other bug. Thanks.

This is in the latest version.

Ross replied on July 08, 2009 18:20 to the idea "Let me save images!" in reddit:

I looked around the SDK briefly just now and googled a bit as well. I don't see any way to enable this behavior, but if I come across it, I'll turn it back on. If you know the answer, feel free to chime in as well.

Ross replied on July 08, 2009 18:19 to the idea "Password-protect iReddit, or add a "hide NSFW stuff" preference if possible?" in reddit:

I don't think introducing something super complex like this is a good idea.

I've already added a feature that lets you subscribe and unsubscribe from a reddit from your phone. This should make it easier to view any reddit, and then also remove that reddit from your subscription immediately if desired.

I'm considering also making a one step process for that, a "view once" sort of thing. Not sure if the UI is going to work yet.

Ross replied on July 08, 2009 18:18 to the problem "Comment display broken in iReddit 2.0" in reddit:

Have you considered reading your comments out loud before posting them?

iReddit does not display raw markdown. And it does respect line breaks. It does not support 100% of markdown.

iReddit does not currently support quotes, and its something we'll work on in the future. This update did not focus on the comments at all.
