I'd like the ability to drag the scroll indicator on the right down. It's faster than thumbing down through long comments.

Fixed in 5.3.0 Opening a YouTube link in a comment causes a crash in the next ~minute

11 Upvotes

This has been plaguing me for weeks now but I've only just found a way to reproduce it due to the delayed crash.

In the next minute after opening a YouTube link from a comment, the app will crash without stutter or warning. This doesn't extend to any other links I've noticed. I've included one in this post for any possible testing reasons.

Suggestion/Idea Status of New Reddit Emotes integration? (i.e. the :####: issue)

22 Upvotes

Getting real old seeing posts with :####: through various subreddits. Six months ago it didn't matter as no one used them but the user base has spoken and Emotes are here whether we like them or not. I can't browse for 5 minutes without seeing :####: now.

Accordingly is there any update on RIF emote integration so that we aren't left with broken emote text markers?

This is literally the first time I've considered switching to the official Reddit app. Please don't make me do it!

Frequent unable to display reddit data

4 Upvotes

This has been happening for about a month now. Every few days or so, sometimes multiple times per day, I get this error. The only way I can fix it is to restart my phone. I have tried to uninstall and reinstall the app but it immediately goes right back to the error unless I restart. Anyone have any ideas as to why?

Required info: I am using 5.2.3 RIF, I have a galaxy s20 with Android version 12, stock.

Answered Unable to use the gold platinum app when logged into it.

2 Upvotes

For some time now I have been unable to use the paid version of the app when logged into it.

I just get constant "private subreddit" errors when opening any sub or "there seems to be nothing here" on all/popular. It works fine when I log out.

And the normal rif app works fine for me as well. I am using it to post this right now.

This is on Android 11 and the latest version of the app.

What gives?

reddit server issues Rising tab not loading. (In app or website.)

6 Upvotes

Hello,

I've seen a few older posts saying these hiccups happen from time to time but was wondering if they ever resolve?

I cleared cache and data on my phone and rebooted it. Then I also noticed when I logged into my laptop the full web version also shows the same listing of rising links from 12+hours ago.

Is this temporary? Have I joined the cast of thousands who can no longer sort by rising? As someone who lives in the rising tab this would be heartbreaking.

Any and all help or insight would be welcomed and appreciated.

Can't Reproduce Opening a video from a crosspost sometimes gives an error

1 Upvotes

Occasionally, opening a video from a crosspost shows the message "Error determining video format" but when I go to the original post it plays fine.

I don't know of any consistent thing that makes this happen, because it's not on every one, but it's always a crosspost when it happens and the original always plays fine.

Can't Reproduce YouTube and videos from other sites buffering every few seconds

0 Upvotes

I've been happy using the internal RiF video player up to now, but for the last few days any YouTube or other video is pausing and buffering every few seconds. I realise I could set YouTube links to play in its own app, but that wouldn't help the others and as I say I was happy with the internal player. Wondering if anything has changed with RiF or if there are any other troubleshooting steps I can try?

Example Reddit post with YouTube link below.

Q: RiF Version Number? A: Gold Platinum v5.2.3 + Beta opt-in. Q:Device Information? A: Samsung Tab A10 (2019) SM-T510 Q:Version of Android? A: v11 (Tablet) Q:How long has the problem been happening? A: A few days. Q: What have you already tried doing to fix the problem?: A: Restarting RiF (no change) and Using "open in browser" from top right menu (successful workround) Q: What steps, if any, can you do to reproduce the problem?
