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?
- It can be accessed by following URL
- https://pwa.blurt.blog
- We have few more alternate URLs to access the same app.
- https://blurt.sagarkothari88.one/
- https://blurt-blog.web.app/

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
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 returnjson_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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Bug Fix 7: User Channel - Posts Thumbnails not working
- Thumbnails were not loading on User posts
- Found the issue here & applied a fix.
