From the web, which is not the beta at this time, I saw this post about three hours ago, commented, then saw the post and all its comments vanish only to be replaced with this version and a whole new set of comments, not including mine. One other oddity, this post said it was -1158 minutes old, yes that's negative 1158; and it's been counting up toward zero ever since. As a developer myself, I have to grin at the oddity of some surprises that befall us sometimes. Great work in general though, lots of features. And as I said in my original comment, gotta love your "App of What's" remark. :-)

Wow! The transcription service over here is even better than what they have over on WhatsApp. Probably one of the best that I’ve ever seen.

Hi Bryn! How are you getting the new Android app update? I checked on updates 3 times. Nothing. I used Aurora store with region set to United states. Nothing. Then I decided to craft an own link stripped of region or role-out and that still didn't give me the update. Thanj

So far so good, now if audio comments could have transcripts, I might just start using this more.

Replying to @dlee42: From the web, which is not the beta at this time, I saw this post about three hoOn the phone app, I'm seeing similar here except to say that, of course, it goes by "about x hours" or "x minutes" ago or something like that. I think in this case he must have wanted to pin it to the top and therefore it shows a different future time for now (in about 14 hours, for instance, at the time this is posted).

I'm now seeing that the web client indicates which ramble is being replied to, with the first few words of the text message or the word "audio" if it was an audio being replied to. This is very useful! Also I think the mystery of the vanishing beta post is solved: I'm guessing Josh had to repost it to include the count-down timer, which is rather like a timed pin feature, and that the original comments probably showed up so fast that he didn't see them while doing that. Just a guess though.

Hey Chelsea, if you search for testflight on the app store, you will find the app from Apple.

Josh, thank you so very much for this beautiful app, and thank you for all you do for it. This is a very therapeutic app, and I’m so grateful for the ability to use it. This update is very cool, I love it so much. I hope that you have a good day today, bro, I am so excited for the future of this app.

I am truly so excited about this, and I’m looking forward to exploring all of the expansion put into this update. Thank you so much for the hard work Josh, I understand that this has probably come after months of feedback, comments, suggestions, and ideas from this community. I certainly appreciate it.

I was gonna get the Beta, but then I thought, you know what? I think I just wanna be surprised about everything when the appstore version is out, so I don't mind waiting.

The reason its only on rambles is because it would cost an awful lot to also be on comments. I have thought about putting comments on a lower model that might be less accurate and just keeping rambles on the advanced one.

Gordon
In my opinion it’s fine just the way it is. People have the ability to do text replies for comments, and there’s a whole lot more comments than there are rambles so yes that would be costly.

Oh yeah, magic tap should definitely help with people roaming around trying to find the stop button lol. But yeah, if I post something again, I'll definitely use the magic tap.

One feature idea could be that when people are replying in the comments or responding through comments, you could enable the ability to have recordings or text only commenting or you could allow both.

Hi. After going through the initial setup and clicking the explorer button, the app crashed and I had to re-launch it.

One other thing, I forgot to mention there should be a way to read aloud who created a bubble, currently, it only shows the name and description and the contents within it on the app that I see so far.

Hi Josh! What about the ability for everyone to enter Gemini API key?

I created a bubble and set it to public, but with approval. It doesn't show up in search, and when I go to my bubbles page to find it, the visibility button is dimmed, so I can't change it and no one can find it. It kind of defeats the purpose.

Currently, its only showing the top 10 bubbles; I am going to maybe add a button to browse the full list. You can search for them though.

Josh, since I saw this post this morning the feeds don't seem to be updating. I haven't installed the Beta but will wait till the app launches in the App Store with the crash of a bottle of champagne on the hull.
