Hey, I installed the latest build (15) and tried to login to my account on feddit.de. But somehow it always shows that my credentials aren't valid...which isn't the case because I'm using a password manager and double checked by logging in to the browser.

Of course. Did a Screen Recording and uploaded it to my Synology NAS. Link is valid for one day. Recorded trying to add the account using the credentials of my login manager as well as logging in with those credentials via the browser.

Could you DM me your email? I'll send you a special build that will show the raw error

You should get an email with a special link. Try downloading that build and logging in again, hopefully I did it correctly and it will show the raw error

Well it worked but the error was {"error": "Unknown"}

BUT I figured it out! Your app wasn't able to handle special chars in my password. I changed my password to something without special chars and now it works!

Specifically I had the special chars { [ @ } < . and # in my password. So somewhere here is the issue and some kind of character here is breaking your password field or your API request. Maybe some escape you're doing?

Interesting! I will add special characters to my password and see if I can fix that problem. I'll keep you informed

[–] brayd@feddit.de 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Sounds good! Thank you for your help! :) Btw, the app works great now that I can test it. One suggestion: Big posts shouldn't be fully visible in the feed. It'd be better if you'd see a preview and had to click on it to see the rest of the post. But besides that it looks awesome!

I uploaded a new version (16) where I tried to properly escape the special characters. I wonder if that will fix the original problem.

Speaking of your suggestion, I'll add it as an option. Many people prefer to see the entire post, but I'll add it as an option. And thank you! :)

[–] brayd@feddit.de 0 points 1 year ago

Thank you, too! :)

Btw will I get build 16, too now? Because the test build is a higher number with 99999 or whatever it was. Or do I have to leave the testflight and rejoin now?

Also, do you accept donations to suppprt the development and give you something back for your time and work?

[–] lFenix@lemmy.ml 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oh, right! I will remove you from the private TestFlight. After that, delete Mlem, wait for 10 minutes, and install it again. You should get version 16.

And I am very honored that you want to support me 😳 There are two main ways to donate:

  1. Ko-Fi
  2. GitHub Sponsors

You can donate any amount, but if you decide to donate 5€/month or more, you'll also get access to all my other apps!

Bought you 15 coffees on Ko-Fi :)
