v0.0.2 — replying works
Pre-releaseEarly pre-release for testing on Android.
Fixed in this build
Replying and logging in now work. The previous build opened writes in an embedded
WebView, which keeps its own private cookies. textlog signs you in by emailing a magic
link, and that link always opens in your normal browser — so the session landed somewhere
the app could never see, and replying was impossible.
Writes now open in your browser's own tab (Chrome Custom Tabs), which shares its cookies.
Tap the magic link once and you stay signed in.
Also fixed: a missing Android 11+ declaration that stopped the app from finding a browser
at all, and returning from a reply now refreshes that thread.
What works
- Latest and hot feeds, infinite scroll
- Live tab — new posts arrive as they are written
- Threads with the parent post quoted, profiles, hashtag feeds
- Reply, post and log in via textlog.cc in a browser tab
Installing
Download textlog-0.0.2.apk and open it. Android asks once for permission to install from
your browser or files app — expected for anything outside the Play Store.
Note: debug-signed. It installs and runs, but a future properly-signed build will not
install over it — you would need to uninstall first.
Unofficial client. textlog is by stagas.
