I don't know if this rises to the level of "problem" rather than "oddity" but this list post: Rolling Comic Books 2022reads oddly on Zing - most of the asterisks are missing, and random entries are bolded?

It would be great if the formatting for bold could be changed, so that doesn’t happen… just a request!

You can tap on the individual posts to read them as formatted, when you see that happening

I assume a known issue(?) – long-pressing an image and selecting “Save to phone” crashes the app (without saving the image).

I still can't view Guardian articles in Zing on my iPhone 11 Pro because the cookie acceptance button is not accessible. Screenshots from top and bottom of scrollable cookie splash below. Can't click on sign-in link either https://i.imgur.com/mH7zDzu.pnghttps://i.imgur.com/35bCThX.png

Just found a workaround that is semi-permanent (rather than forcing open in external browser each time): if I tap on the partners list I can accept all cookies from that screen and now my cookie seems to be set.
― Alba, Thursday, 15 February 2024 08:58 (four months ago) link
sometimes you can access a little sliver of a cookie-acceptance button if you rotate the orientation of your screen. this comes up periodically with different links. honestly what i would really love in zing is a setting where i can set links to default open outside of zing in an app instead (web browser, youtube, whatever). not tech savvy so no idea if that's an easy thing to do but seems like it might be?
― Lavator Shemmelpennick, Thursday, 15 February 2024 19:07 (four months ago) link
Yes it’s very easy; will add it
― stet, Thursday, 15 February 2024 21:47 (four months ago) link
That would be great, much appreciated!
― atmospheric river phoenix (morrisp), Thursday, 15 February 2024 21:58 (four months ago) link
Awesome, thank you stet!
― Lavator Shemmelpennick, Friday, 16 February 2024 00:41 (four months ago) link
OK this is double-fixed in the new version - links open in a proper browser view inside Zing (so no cover-up of cookies settings), and there's a preference setting to always open them in your system browser. In testing now, should be released soon

Thank you!

When you’re typing a post, how do you access the quick formatting options for bold, quote, etc.?
― Hippie Ernie (morrisp), Tuesday, 19 March 2024 14:38 (two months ago) link
Think upthread it was noted that it went away but will be back at some future point, hopefully soon

You can still get to the full composer by going into an individual post and hitting the reply button. (If you clear the quoted text it’s literally the old composer). But yes, better option coming soon.

If you search (within a board), click into a thread found in the search results, and then back out of that thread, I think it used to take you back to the search results(?) Now it takes you to the New Answers page of the board, so you have to run the search again to try another thread…

For some reason I can’t respond to a specific post (I.e. quoting it and providing as response below). It’s probably just as well.
