Sweet! Welcome here! Some raw feedback:
  • When I first installed the app, I uninstalled it immediately since it was asking me for login information including email. The best would be no sign-in needed to get basic features. Then it would be great to support LNURL-Auth, so I can just sign in with my wallet (which would simplify loading the wallet too). Further the app could be integrated with google account as option (especially to autogenerate the password), to make it much smoother to start. I think I tried second time and failed again.
    • The third time I installed it, the experience was painful even more, since I had to go through password reset flow. That was painful in itself and then the reset email from firebase went into spam folder. I finally worked through it.
  • The first thing that I see when I opened the app was "There's an update available", I tap on that, it takes me to Google Play Store, but no option to update (only "Open").
  • In the app with the dark theme, the episodes separator line is too bright, it should be much darker.
  • It looks like I can't start playing the podcast when it's downloading
  • When setting V4V for the first time, there should be some good defaults, like 500 for boost and 50 for "per-min".
  • It lets me put in amounts to boost even when I don't have wallet funded. And the error is "Payment error - check wallet for details", which doesn't tell me what the actual issue is.
  • When funding wallet I'd like to specify less sats, e.g. 500.
  • When I generate the funding invoice, there should be a button to open my LN wallet (currently I have to copy, switch applications, find wallet and then paste)
  • Playback features are decent. I would like to see other people's boostagrams.

Wow thanks for all the detail - incredibly helpful! 101 sats tipped!⚡️
  • No Account + LNURL-Auth Option - this is something many have requested and we're working on.
  • Android Update Bug - we've had an issue here with the update banner on the latest version - sorry!
  • Dark Theme Separator Line - will look into the right guidelines and fix this.
  • Can't Play Podcast Whilst Downloading - we have an updated automatic download system coming soon which should avoid this issue.
  • Value for Value defaults - yes great idea - the payment bottom sheet definitely needs a re-design.
  • More Specific Payment Errors - on our backlog.
  • Funding Smaller Amounts - a few people have requested this - we'll add smaller options.
  • Funding Invoice Auto-Switch - great idea.
  • Viewing Others Boostagrams - something we're thinking about.
Thanks so much for the detailed feedback this really means a lot! :)
On the last point around viewing Boostagrams - would you want control over this so it could be set to public / private?

re: boostagrams: Do you mean whether "my" boostagram is private? I'm not expecting the boostagram to be private, I think it would be fair for it to publicly show to anyone who's playing the podcast. I could see some expandable overlay that shows the boostagrams from other people as they come. E.g. Twitch comments style.
