The scrolling feels way better now, great update! Love it.

Explorer tab still crashes the app sadly 😭

Can you please provide your setup? Which phone/OS are you using? Is there a specific page in the explore section that forces this crash?

Any additional steps to help us reproduce this issue would be appreciated

No page just in general whenever I try it it swaps to the blank black page and crashes, everytime immediately.

I'm on an S8 Plus with Android 9

Are you logged in via Amber or with your nsec plugged directly into Primal?

Directly into Primal

Thanks for the help. We were able to reproduce the issue. It will be fixed in the next release.

Does it support landscape mode on Android Tablets ?

Not yet, planning on supporting in a future build.

Primal Android feeds just got a lot smoother. Everyone should upgrade to the latest build. 🫡

can you give us the option to add our country, state, city & gender,

feeds by country would be great too

Yes! We’ll look into it 😁

great update!💜

Adding landscape mode support on Android tablets

App’s been feeling way more solid lately. Big thanks to the team 🙌🧡

When purchasing SATs via the wallet option , I would consistently get an error occurred and it wouldn't allow me to purchase, has this been resolved?

Hello nostr:nprofile1qqsvnay22ef0dgqee0jr909va2tl3l4fwq6eparvrznq349xydq395spr9mhxue69uhkummnw3ezumrfvfex2mr9v9nzucm0d5q3samnwvaz7tmswfjk66t4d5h8qunfd4skctnwv46qmt3hry , as we have already mentioned, you have reached your daily purchase limit. This error will continue to occur until you wait 24hrs to purchase again. Please feel free to reach out with any concerns.

Thank you 🙏

Scrolling crashes are still an issue. Seems to most happen when I scroll and hold for a moment.

Can you please provide your setup? Which phone do you use, which OS? Are you logged in via Amber or with nsec pasted directly into Primal? We’d love to try and reproduce this issue.

Android 9 and trusting Primal with my nsec directly. Phone is an old UleFone (as you can assume from the Android version).

It is better than it was prior to Primal v2.3.6, but just managed to make it happen again by just scrolling around. I cannot zero-in on a scenario that is 100% repeatable.

Do you remember which feed you scrolled when the latest crash happened? Is feature "Auto play videos" under "Settings -> Content Display" turned on or off?

Auto play videos is OFF

I can get it to happen on any feed by doing the following:

1) Thumb-scroll one page down (3x)

2) Optionally, thumb-scroll a few pages down 1x

3) Thumb-down and move up and down until the Android error dialog appears (Wait or Close App).

But I can’t even use those steps to consistently reproduce the error. It happens by just scrolling around up and down (not opening individual notes or anything but scrolling).

Great update. nostr:nprofile1qy88wumn8ghj7mn0wvhxcmmv9uq36amnwvaz7tmwdaehgu3wvf5hgcm0d9hx2u3wwdhkx6tpdshsqgxkruautvltgsqwlkhxz6d9c972hueyddg5xcw7jwwwfgdqmfh0fgtc0xaw

One bug on the Reads tab? (Android):

Web interface:

Thanks for the report! We’ll look into this right away.

So, when Itry to open a link to an Reads Article, I'm getting this error.

Another bug?

Strange. We can’t reproduce this. Can you provide an article example where this happens?

Glad to have media save function back 🙏🏽

Push Notifications?

We support push notifications, if you access your notification settings you can enable them

NWC with nostr:nprofile1qyghwumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytnhd9hx2tcpzdmhxue69uhhqatjwpkx2urpvuhx2ue0qqstpkv7ykr7fe99wxh84ef5xr5h5g3xex3d2mrgk39hz4m0n3ad93qs7k0kh is still not working. According to them, there is something wrong with the NWC implementation in the Primal app. I thought they have already reached out to the Primal team about that issue?

Thank you for streaming , good photo of steak and good music . Primal is great .
