🏝️ 5.0.0 - Laugh Tale
It's been a long ride, but we've finally reached the end of the road. Don't be disappointed, it's not the end of the journey 😉
📰 Bad news? You decide!
Television
❌ The Android TV is no longer fully supported, it may work but we don't maintain it.
✅ ChromeCast is now available! Share your videos directly to the TV instead.
Store
❌ The App won't be available on F-Droid anymore.
✅ This downside however has a lot of upsides, read more below...
🎨 Theming
It automatically applies colors depending on the series to create a more immersive experience.
Otherwise some other design stuff has changed a bit, however the user experience stays the same or has even improved!
🕒 Durability
Since it's no longer updated on F-Droid, it's possible to implement a lot more features.
The activated episodes will be stored across multiple databases, so even if one doesn't work, it falls back to other sources.
🍎 iOS Support?
Currently iOS is not supported.
However the project and it's dependencies got updated a lot, so it's theoretically possible to develop for iOS.
Maybe some community member wants to jump in, as I'm not an iOS developer, but most work is already done!
📜 4.7.0 - Error Logging and IMPORTANT Bug fix

If any of these bugs happend to you before and are still present:

📜 Logging
This release features error and debug logging.
If the app crashes go to Settings and scroll down to the logging section.
Banner meanings:
