Share dialog glitches/looks wrong when running under macOS #1670
Comments
the app was never ment to run on mac. We should decide that we want and need to support that first of all. |
on macos we have deltachat-desktop, it is nice to try out the ios app on macos, however, for now, we should not put many resources in polishing that. how can the normal user install the ios app for macos? if possible and not yet done, we should restrict the app for ios+ipad. so, is suggest to close this issue and open one for denying ios from macos, if needed. |
appstore, yeah we could possible restrict it, though the app already mostly works there are just a few edgecases where such bugs appear (like the share extension, which still needs work on iOS too anyway so maybe this problem automatically disappears when we change the share extension design on ios (also it's probably just some layout/constraint thing, the visual background glitches are acceptable)). |
if it is just some minor things, well, maybe. the share-extentsion is not really nice anyway 1 , so needs some revamp at some point anyway - ideally, when this is improved, we should also test it on macox :) however, please also note, that currently the main ios devs do not have m1+ machines so, afaik, cannot really try out ios on macos. @Simon-Laux but on point to the question: does the "macos app store" offer Delta Chat ios on m1? Footnotes

yes but as I pointed out above the app mostly already works so we could also keep it until it makes problems. |
it is hidden behind the "ios" tab and by default, when searching for "Delta Chat", still the desktop version is shown. so i also think, it is okay to leave that in - as long it does not take too much of our resources for adapting special things. running the ios app on mac is not a goal currently. |
also, an chat-list or message-list update is missing when using "share to" on macOS; the shared content is not directly visible, you have to re-open chat-list or message-list (on iPhone, usually, share-extension and app are not visible at the same time - otherwise, we'd probably have the same issue there. |
k, i disabled the availability for the iphone app for apple silicone; M1/M2/M3 macs are fast enough to run the electron desktop, wrt support it is easier to have just one desktop app at some point, we can decide whether to make the app nice & available for desktop, but currently this is a non-goal to save costs for iphone/ipad, the share-dialog is not great, but good enough closing this issue now as no actionable items are left for now |
you can scroll down a bit thanks to the bouncing scrolling, but it bounces right back, before I have a chance to click it:
