Hello everyone,

During this weird times I had more time for software development. I started porting Quickddit - open source Reddit client to Ubuntu Touch. This port was written in Qt Quick Controls 2.

Screenshot:

Features:

I would love to hear any feedback, issues or requests. I do not have device with working video playback, so please test if that works.
Download armhf or arm64.
Source code you can find here.

Hello guys, I implemented today that podbird can remember queue between restarts and playback position for every episode. There is new setting where you can set up that episode will continue in playing where you left. Can you please test it? Download armhf or arm64 build.
@flaun-in It has implemented that fix too

Hello,
I would love to ask about halium 7.1 devices, would be there OTA-13 stable update for them? I am using OnePlus 3T and for now I am able to install just edge with installer.
Second question is about QT 5.12, Is there possibility to test it with ubports-qa tool now? It would be useful for me as an app developer. Live demo of QT 5.12 would be cool too
Third question: What is blocking providing dialer, messaging, adress-book, mediaplayer app and Morph Browser as clickable packages? I built some of them with clickable and there was working fine. It would improve updating experience.
Thanks,
Daniel

@malditobastardo not yet, just made merge request.

Thanks for awesome feedback and testing to you all!

Hello guys, I recently implemented importing podcast with OPML file (I was migrating from android so needed that feature ). It was only one day effort, but I am willing to help more. Here are some issues for the next milestone. Main issue for me is still this, it can be really anoying.

In OTA-13 there will be upgraded chromium core from around v62 to version 77, it is improvement in performance and compatibility. It will bring better text selection too.

Quickddit was published in OpenStore, please let me know if that works correctly. Please remove local installation before OpenStore version installation.
This update brings UI redesign, multireddit support was added and minor bugs was fixed.

@flaun-in I made fix for that, see https://code.launchpad.net/~dano6/podbird/podbird/+merge/386561

Hello guys, thanks for a great job at UBports.
I would like to ask how the current corona situation affect you and development of Ubuntu Touch?

@CiberSheep ubports weblate community project would be great, I have not big motivation to make my app translatable otherwise.

Calendar Both apps have it, apparmor errors looks similar too

Yes, all apps are working with updated system, it is treble OP3T port, but it was same with halium 7.1 port

I get some logs with OP3

Chris Clime started working on something, look here https://github.com/ubports/morph-browser/tree/xenial_-_notifications

If I remember correctly, that bug affected only pinephone, in code was for some reason playback speed set to x3 https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~michael-sheldon/podbird/trunk/revision/204 and almost no phone was affected with that

Hello, occasional podbird contributor here,
it is great to see that somebody is looking into ubports media stack. I will test your beta build. There are mainly 2 issues about streaming media I met with podbird:
1.) https://github.com/ubports/media-hub/issues/12 play some stream, then turn off network, wait until playback hangs, turn on the network and try to play another stream. Result is that you need to restart app to play anything.
2.) issue is when during playing some media network is not fast enough and buffering of content is necessary, playback is not paused and it will skip part of the media
Another nice to have thing would be to be able setup metadata for sound indicator: album art, media name and the author
I know that these issues are not regressions, but they are bothering me with podbird a lot and maybe it would be useful to be fixed for your app too.
Thanks for all your effort, and I am going to test your build now

I found an another issue: apps are unable to save settings, settings are not saved after app restart. Settings from .config folder are loaded fine. Happens with Podbird, OpenStore, Quickddit and more
Found in log from QQC2 Gallery app:

file:///opt/click.ubuntu.com/qqc2-gallery.ubad/1.0.7/qml/Main.qml:67:5: QML Settings: Failed to initialize QSettings instance. Status code is: 1

Can I ask about swipe to close app bug, is it still hard to close app?

I was recently testing ubports GSI for OnePlus 3T, and Camera experience there was great. Much faster switching between cameras, faster recovery after taking photo, video recording worked, even video playback works. I think that are last pieces for this phone to get properly working. Would be possible to take advantage of this for Halium 7.1 port?

@dobey I am still getting one missing column in portrait on OnePlus 3T (getting 3, should 4), in landscape it is fixed now.
