in blurt •  last year 

Hello Blurt Community members,

With this post, I would like to share Blurt Mobile Web Application development updates.

Weekly Blurt Mobile App Dev Updates

How do I access it?

Posting Key Based login for mobile users

  • Those who are on mobile-browser, don't have access to Blurt Keychain
  • So, for mobile users, I've added support for Posting key based login
  • User's private key is securely stored ONLY on device.
  • Here is how it looks on mobile.

Improvement 1: App Version Number

  • Now, App Shows the App Version number on the left Menu
  • Here is how it looks
  • Upon tapping on it, you can also copy it to clipboad
  • This copied value can be used for sending it for support-activities

image

Improvement 2: Community Posts Thumbnail

  • On list of posts for a given community, thumbnails were not being loaded.
  • @megadrive reported this issue.
  • I looked into it & found that some apis return json_metadata as string & some APIs return json_metadata as an object.
  • I added the code to handle both type of response.
  • Now thumbnails are getting displayed on list of posts of a community

Bug Fix 1: Messenger - Decryption

  • Messenger feature has number of bugs because I have not touched it for very long.
  • Someone reported that list of messages are not getting decrypted & displayed
  • I looked into it & fixed it
  • There are more bugs & those are known to me & I'll work on it.

image

Bug Fix 2: User Channel - Followers / Followings / Blocked

  • This list stayed empty
  • There was some API failure
  • It turns out, I wasn't sending id in the request, which became a mandatory parameter
  • After supplying it, it is now working.

image

Bug Fix 3: All Feeds - Scroll to load more

  • This was an issue because of sorting.
  • App was sorting the records based on creation date
  • Due to this pagination was having impact.
  • I removed the sorting logic & it fixed the issue.

image

Bug Fix 4: User Channel > User info - not working

  • User info was not getting loaded earlier
  • I looked into it.
  • Added necessary fixes & now it is working
  • There are still some known issues e.g. Blurt Balance, Blurt Power, Blurt Voting Manabar isn't showing up.
  • Those known issues, I'll fix.

image

Bug Fix 5: User Profile Picture getting clipped

  • User Profile picture was getting clipped
  • This was a visible issue on desktops
  • Found a better way to show it & it solved it.

image

Bug Fix 6: Better Image Caching & loading

  • In all feeds, when loading thumbnails of post, a big blurt logo shows & it fades away
  • This animation was very odd & not very user friendly
  • I implemented better image loading & caching
  • Try out the app to find out the experience.

image

Bug Fix 7: User Channel - Posts Thumbnails not working

  • Thumbnails were not loading on User posts
  • Found the issue here & applied a fix.
