(New) App Feedback

notmychipmunk

On Android version 0.5.0. App is now constantly force-closing. Started after I adjusted the font size in the reader. Even clearing cache and storage and logging out didn't help. Now it just force-closes when I attempt to log in.

@notmychipmunk can you please email me at chocolatkey@j-novel.club with your device information (brand, OS version, steps, maybe screenshots) so I can try to fix this? Thanks

Hmm, I had this wierd issue with the updated app - it displayed parts I have not read as 'read' and other parts I have read as 'not read' in the releases tab. Specifically when not showing only followed series. However after minimizing and giving it a couple mins (to look up if this error was reported here) it seems to have fixed itself.

Can't really reproduce so far but thought I'll put this here in case others also encounter this

Having the same thing happing but it's not fixing itself. It does display correctly in the series page, but going back to the main page it is still incorrect.

Below is an example where I have not touched Mapping LN or manga, but is showing read. Also while I have read Slightly Older GF it is showing unread.

@Cibastian I had the exact same issue a few days ago, and reported it with screenshots through the Feedback function of the TestFlight app. So you’re definitely not alone on that particular bug.

Khaos

@mystyk I may be misremembering, I think it was asked not to use that method of reporting issues and to report here as the former was less likely to be seen.

mystyk

@Khaos Good to know! Thanks!

chocolatkey

@Khaos @mystyk That is correct. Both the iOS and Android feedback functions lack in different features, so it's a lot better to report here or email me if it's an issue involving private user info. I'm going to go through feedback here and on iOS/Android now though

chocolatkey

@Khaos can you confirm for me that that you still see that in the releases? I have spoofed myself to be you and I see the correct progress

@Tiko424 could you please let me know your device's model/OS version, and put a screenshot link that works?

Pixel 4 XL,

@Tiko424 Unfortunately I found out earlier that the app may crash under certain circumstances in Android 11. I have submitted a version 0.5.1 that may fix this

Tiko424

Awesome looking forward to the update if I had the file I'd side lode it....

Khaos

@chocolatkey Odd now I am showing something a bit different.

First image is my "standard" releases page. It has a duplicate entry for 'My Friend's Little Sister', one is showing correctly (read) and the other incorrectly (unread). Also any other titles that are read before this are showing incorrectly as unread such as "Black Summoner" or "Seirei Gensouki".

Second image is my "Following" releases page and all seems to be showing correctly.

When I try to make the reader go full screen, the beta app crashes.

My phone is a Pixel 3XL running Android 11. The JNC app is the 2020-12-21 version.

@stache13 @Tiko424 as mentioned, it seems this is a problem specific to Android 11, which I made the mistake of not testing the app out with. I have submitted an update, 0.5.1, that hopefully fixes this bug. Since it seems that there are a reasonable amount of people with this issue (and it's Christmas time which can lead to slow review speed) here are the builds if you want to sideload the app, and you can let me know if it worked. Do so at your own risk, and be aware that you won't receive updates. Otherwise, please wait until version 0.5.1 has been approved.

Tiko424

That fixed it for me.

Hi there!!!
Loving the dark and not-so dark backgrounds in iOS, I feel it lacks a gray tone in between light and dark tones.

Also, is this a bug or a feature?
Since the last update I can see some releases highlighted in green, some of them are in my follow list and others don’t

For example, this week’s releases:

Ascendance of a bookworm - following
My instant death ability - not following

The rest is not highlighted

(How can I post a picture here?)

Thank you <3

@Kamechan88 This is my understanding in regards to the green. When reading it will show blue as you progress and green when you have completed reading that chapter. It won't show anything if you haven't started to read.

So I guess the question is did you read both of them?
