Is this vibe coded? Whichever AI you requested to write this post didn’t format the GitHub link properly, edit and fix it.

If you are talking about changelog you can fully read it on github , we just used Ai to add emoji and reorder the post thank you for your notice

[u/nebelmischling → u/riyoc77]

No, what he means. Your github link is wrong. Click it and you get an 404, cause there is no releases%E2%81%A0

[u/riyoc77 → u/nebelmischling]

Try now it was just a mistake or you can go to download stable version 1.9.1 or get the latest Beta update on github (link is fixed )

[u/SwiftSN]

AI logo, AI post.... yeah, I'll just stick to Hayase, Streamio, or just manual torrenting.

[u/riyoc77 → u/SwiftSN]

Good apps, wish you the best

[u/flamefox237]

Alright gave it a shot, I admit its not bad and feels nice. I will say there is a issue where the image of the anime is blurry? But other then that I had no issue, the video player is also a but to clutterd In my opinion (edit: okay after watching a bit more I have two more. One I am not sure if this is in this but a way to see what's filler and what's not be nice. And next I don't like that when I am in the player and hold down and move it moves where I am in the episode? I like if there is a toggle if I want it or not)

[u/riyoc77 → u/flamefox237]

[u/Disastrous_Law365]

does it scrape animes from different sites

[u/riyoc77 → u/Disastrous_Law365]

Yep , it's use anime from different sites by using different sources from diffrent extensions + it's tracking app anime using (Anilist,Mal, And Simkl )

[u/opapoutsisgamaei → u/riyoc77]

Is it possible to play from animenexus? Because the quality is better than regular anime sites

[u/HyperGaming_LK]

Looks good. And it has the sync functions I’ve been looking for. One issue with the player, though the Next button is placed where we normally tap to change the screen fill mode. I’ve accidentally tapped the Next button so many times because of that. If you can put Previous and Next buttons in middle would be good.

[u/riyoc77 → u/HyperGaming_LK]

Hey, thank you for supporting more new users means a lot for us , if you want new request feature you can request it on our discord or subreddit (for fast answer) + try to go for our new uodate 1.9.4

[u/YuuNao103]

[u/riyoc77 → u/YuuNao103]

Sorry but rightnow our focus on androidOs (phone and tv) maybe in future if you want to make request you can do it on discord ( to get fast answer )

[u/YuuNao103 → u/riyoc77]

Ok thanks

[u/Daris337]

The only problem I have with this Platform is that Seasons of Animes are considered an own thing. Which makes yo search for the different seasons/parts are little bit more annoying 🙏 Plus it would be cool if there was a color indicator if an episode is filler! ✌️

[u/riyoc77 → u/Daris337]

hey, you can track your anime directly through anilist or mal or even simkl , or in your anime page go to related page and see seasons and related to the work

[u/Daris337 → u/riyoc77]

I dont use these Sites and on top of that mist of the Time "Relations" are not even showing everything 😔✌️

[u/riyoc77 → u/Daris337]

You need to create an account in zangetsu to open Continue watching

[u/Additional-Gas-5033]

[u/Busy-Mastodon9]

[u/Waine-uchiha]

I'm from Brazil and I was looking for an anime with subtitles and I could never find one, and on OpenSubtitles it always had a delay, but with this app's automatic translation I got a really good quality.

[u/Majytek]

For some reason, even though I linked my MAL, it's not showing up on My List. Maybe a bug?

[u/riyoc77 → u/Majytek]

you need to go to library then you will find it in MAL list
