I was wondering if there are any plans to create a dark theme for the client. On the website variant it is possible to use custom stylesheets which on androids is obviously not a thing. I often use the android client late during the day or just before going to sleep, where the light blue theme (As nice as it is) is rather bright and blinding.

Some users (such as myself) don't use Google Play Services. Some services such as Fastmail have started implementing support for Pushy notifications which don't go through Google.

Here is a patch that does pushy registration if Play Services is unavailable. Note that I have tested registration works and notifications can be received. That said, obviously, there would need to be code on the IRCCloud server side to support this--however Pushy's API is nearly identical to Google's.

(I have no affiliation with Pushy, I just want to use IRCCloud on my phone without Play Services)

Now using 3.1, didn't fix the problem.

I get push notifications, but when I try to connect to actually read/reply, It says "Connecting" then "Loading" and after the bar gets all the way across, it goes to "Reconnecting in 0:30" and starts counting down. It then loops like that forever.

Hooking up USB debugging, I see the following stack trace get dumped in the log at the point it switches to "Reconnecting":

If all the messages in the initial backlog for a buffer are unimportant, but the last seen eid is behind another page of backlog, don't mark the buffer as unread.

Expected behavior

When i try to signup with single space in email address field the app needs to give me error or alert something like "Please enter valid email address."

Actual behavior

When i try to signup by putting single space without any text in email address field, the app crashes.

How to reproduce

To reproduce the bug, do the following steps :-

• Go to app account signup screen.
• Type Name in name field
• In email address field just press spacebar, don't type any word only press spacebar. For better understanding watch the video.
• Fill your password and press signup for an account button. After some seconds the app crashes.

* Device:  Samsung J7 Prime
* Operating system: Android 7.0 Nougatt
* App Version: v4.8.1

Recording Of The Bug

In the Android 3.0(61) and Android 3.1(62) builds when the option Nicknames on a separate line is enabled, timestamps will be forced to the right side of the screen. Toggling the Right hand side timestamps setting does not fix this issue either. The only way to get timestamps back to the left side appear to be disabling the Nicknames on a separate line options.

It would be awesome if notifications in IRCCloud synced across devices and even the web app. So if I dismiss a notification on my phone, it will clear on my tablet and on the web app too.

I believe this is done with Google Cloud Messaging? http://developer.android.com/google/gcm/

Just an idea, I don't know if its feasible to implement.

Thanks!

09:52:06 <Mikaela> I have an issue with the Android client. When IRCCloud gets disconnected from any network (last night I got disconnected from two), the Android client wants to create a new network irc.irccloud.com/6667. I refuse, because I already have network irc.irccloud.com/+6697 and the Android clients logs me out and I am without IRC(Cloud) until I go to LastPass and
09:52:06 <Mikaela> get my password from there and it's not so easy wih phone.

With the most recent irccloud app update, I get a prompt that I must update Google Play services. However, on the Google Play store when I view Google Play services it says "Your device isn't compatible with this version".

My device, a Nexus 6 has Google Play services 6.7.74, running on Android 5.1.

Dear developers of irccloud,

I'm a Ph.D. student and I'm doing research on checking data races for Android apps. I found potential races in MessageActivity.java and MessageViewFragment.java:

In MessageActivity.java at line 649, "messageTxt" is used in an AsyncTask. Android document suggests that we shouldn't access GUI wedgits out of UI thread. Is this a potential race with other access to "messageTxt" in UI thread (for example, user can change the text of "messageTxt" concurrently, or "messageTxt.setText" is invoked at line 544 and so on). Why not move "messageTxt.getText().toString()" at line 649 to "preExecute" and pass the String to "doInBackground"?

In MessageViewFragment.java at line 1305, "EventsDataSource.getInstance()" is invoked in an AsyncTask and it returns a singleton EventsDataSource object. However, this method is also invoked many times by UI thread, e.g., line 213, 395 and so on. Since this method is not synchronized, it is possible that the EventsDataSource object is created multiple times (thus, not singleton anymore) when invoked concurrently. So we can make this method synchronized.

Also, at the same line 1305, "buffer.bid" is read in AsyncTask, but "buffer" is also initialized at line 806. I'm not sure if these two statements may happen in parallel. If so, this is also a data race that may lead to bugs.

What's your opinion?

Thanks, Yu

when adding freenode through the normal context menus, it seems to freeze at state of disconnected. tap to reconnect.

cannot delete through long press context either, have made multipLe attempts and it just keeps creating duplicate, un removable instances of the server.

unsure of steps to reproduce, I don't have any other devices.

perhaps related to SSL connection type this was only notable difference from expected behavior test paths

Hi Team

In the recent Play Store policy, it will become mandatory for you to fill out the Data Safety Section. Since this is an OSS Android app, it will make sense to have it as a part of the repository as well.

I have run the scan using my tool here on your repo, attached are the scan results. I found the following:

3 data types 1 SDK.

If this is helpful, do use our free tool to generate Play Store Data Safety report: https://github.com/Privado-Inc/privado

Also, do share your feedback & thanks for the OSS app 😄

Currently we need to have Suggest nicknames as you type enabled to have nicks auto suggested while typing.

Although the feature is nice, it's a bit annoying to have half of the screen pledged with suggestions just because 100 nicks match the first two letters of the word we are writing and seems to make the app to lag a little bit.

Personally, I've disabled auto suggestion and double tap a message to mention a user.

It would be nice to have an option to disable auto suggestion but to be able to mention a nickname prefixing the word with a @ instead.

I know that this might conflict with the way IRCCloud deals with Slack mentions, but it would be probably possible to make the app distinguish between normal IRC connections and Slack and auto remove the @ prefix in a normal connection?

Cheers

Currently, we need to long press a message, chose Copy message, and then paste it. The Quote feature would do allow us to do that automatically adding a > to the quoted message, useful for direct replies to a question. Also, the quoted message would keep all the text formatting, like bold, italics, etc.

Example: timestamp <nick> message > reply goes here

Cheers

When we copy a message from the chat in IRCCloud and then we paste it, we got something like: 13:46:09 <+ irccat> [android] c99koder pushed 1 commit to branch master: https://github.com/irccloud/android/compare/4d27e8bebd90...243b5aa44873

On the application, we don't see any space between the prefix and the nickname, but it appears in the pasted text.

Seems that somehow, IRCCloud is adding a whitespace between the prefix and the username, when copying the message?

So it's obvious that IRCCloud uses the built-in camera app to record video, which at least on my device (samsung S10+) results in about 3-4 seconds of video footage before hitting the 15MB upload limit

the tiny limit you get on irc cloud for uploads aside, most social apps (such as Signal another chat app I use) will process and encode video themselves in order to reduce the bitrate of the video before uploading.

Currently, if I need to record video that will be uploaded to IRC cloud I first record the video externally to IRCCloud, then use an editing application to trim it down to as short a video as possible then use another application to re-encode the video to fit in the small IRCCloud upload limits.

This seems non-optimal
