@jdmmis Just added spoilers to your two posts because your images are incredibly large and make navigating this topic quite obnoxious ;x

@jdmmis we may reconsider the design of the library as the amount of features increases, but for now you should be able to long press on a volume in your library to download

@chocolatkey It's so weird how they reject it even though you own the copyright...

@chocolatkey I had this experience with one of my apps a week or so ago. They'd complained about trademark usage in my app a few months ago (it's an app that interacts with someone else's service, and thus has to explain about the service it's connecting to, and mere mention of that service was enough to set them off). I appealed with a link to said service's trademark usage policy that actually explicitly specifies it's okay to use their name when talking about connecting to them, and then they let it through. Then this last week, I got a notification that I needed to specify whether it was a news app or not. I did nothing except tick the box saying it wasn't on the app, and suddenly I get another "your update was rejected because you're using someone else's trademark in your description". Even though the very same description (since the last time they rejected for it) actually has "name and logo of xxxx used with permission" with a link to their trademark usage policy right in it. So I appealed again pointing out that it was right in the description and they accepted the appeal. But long story short (too late) they've definitely got someone not quite paying attention in their review department. Especially when it's something they'd already accepted an appeal on in the past which should be on the record for the person to look at.

@myskaros Thank you
@chocolatkey Thank you for the tip

@pcj probably not someone but something as in a bot, such automation is what's behind all the Amazon issues many retailers have been having.

Version 0.5.1 is now available on Android (only!) which should fix the Android 11 crashes

@chocolatkey yay!

I don’t know if this has been reported yet, but I can’t tap to go between pages in manga on my iPad, though it works fine on my iPhone. I also have trouble swiping to get to the next page. If I push down too hard, it won’t actually register that I swiped. I’m running the latest beta 0.5.0 on iPadOS 14.3, and my iPad model is a 9.7” iPad Pro (1st gen iPad Pro). I tried on my iPhone Xs, and tapping still works, but it’s obviously too small a screen to read manga on.
Tapping still brings up the controls, and it doesn’t matter where I tap, as that just toggles whether they are visible or not.
I’m not sure when it stopped working, but it was definitely working fine last time I read manga which would have been about a month ago as I was making sure I was caught up with the expiring volumes.

@lilitu93 I'll look into this, but could you maybe record your screen with these issues happening? That would help me reproduce it

OK, I can do, if I get someone to hold my phone to record it. It will be some time this weekend at least before I can do it, though.

@lilitu93 in case you aren't aware, you can record directly in the system instead of filming the screen: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT207935 . And if you are uncomfortable sharing the recording here (due to other apps/windows/notifications on your screen) you send it directly to chocolatkey@j-novel.club

@jdmmis That's not a problem with the app but on the part itself; I just fixed it, so it should be a consistent font now!

Thanks, I didn't realise that! Means I don't have to rope my husband into helping which is good. I'll get that done some time this weekend and send you the video. It happened with multiple chapters and volumes, so I don't think it's a specific title that's causing the problem.

@chocolatkey Thanks for reply on android, TTS will be the best feature that you can put in the App, all other alternative has some problems, best best case scenario was using iphone/siri but still really bad usability.
It will be nice if you take some inspiration on webtoon APP.
Another best feature that I love is week schedule, to see when will be available what I want to ready. They take this feature out of crunchyroll APP and is really sucks now I need to go web browser to see the week schedule.
If you could put on touch translation will be nice I use to read in english, but my native is portuguese, at the gym is best listen in my local language, I know it is very hard and straight translation but is satisfactory, I could live with it.
I wish you the best, you all deserve recognize for a very good job to bring to the world this novels.
You will be very successful if you could bring APP to other countries like webtoon is doing, maybe some people to collaborate to translate to other languages.
If you could put light novel categories will be nice too.
Some day I wish I could read Overload Light Novel on your new app :-)
My best regard

Overlord is published by Yen Press; the J-Novel Club app will only be for J-Novel Club members to read books published by J-Novel Club :<

Option to redeem credits on app for volumes. I couldn't find the option anywhere. If it is already there, can someone please point of out?
