Don’t know if I’m being really dumb, but I can’t find any way to post to a community. I can reply to comments, but not actually make a post. Also, the search tab has no search box, but is just an empty page with the word “Search” and no way to actually search for anything.

Closing Bean pauses any music that’s playing.
Steps to reproduce:
- Play music from the Music app (or any other app)
- Upvote a post or comment on Bean
- Exit Bean by pressing the home button or the home gesture.
The music that’s playing would now pause.
Thanks for the report, I’ll add it to the list.
Can the card view be the default view when the app first starts? So much of the content is visual and the compact view doesn’t do that any favors. Even in the card view some images are clipped more than I’d like. Tapping each post as you scroll by certainly is taxing.
It should remember your selection, is it not doing that?
It does! I just meant imo that should be the default and one should have to choose the compact experience.
Bean crashes when viewing images from image galleries.
For example, this post: https://lemmy.world/post/925265
I’ve not been able to replicate this. What device are you using and are you on the latest build?
iPhone SE 3rd generation. Bean build 2023.7.22.2.35
Does not crash if I open the first image in the gallery.
Crashes if I open any of the other images in the gallery.
Also it does not crash if I open the first image and then swipe through to the other images.
Okay, I’ll see if I can replicate this. That’s a weird one!
Image uploads are broken: JSON Parse error: Unexpected token: <

I was able to make an image post, but it definitely wasn’t as smooth as usual. I had to reload the app to see my post.

I love the look of this app! I’ve been trying all of them, and have so far kept going back to Memmy. But this one has the potential to take over! I will be watching with great interest!
Small issue. But I have sound effects turned on in settings. When I upvote something there is an audio tone. However, when I put my phone into silent mode via the switch on the side of the iPhone, I still get an audio tone when I upvote something.
I turned off sound effects for now, but I think the app audio settings should be overridden by the phone settings (silent mode in this instance).
Let me know if you need more info.
Thanks!
Agreed, it should be silent when the phone is silent. This isn’t something that I’d experienced but I’ll see if I can replicate it.
Appreciate it. If there’s any more info I can provide just let me know.
