1.2, build 230

Changes in build 230 (pre-release):

1. Added full-screen audio player without manual rewind for now.
2. Local news feed is now fully cached without having to wait a second.

❌ Specifically what doesn't work there:

1. Comments on cached posts
   For this we need to rewrite the entire logic for loading posts in WallPostActivity.

1.1, build 218

Shortly before the start of development of the next version 1.2, development of 1.1.x branch will continue for now.

Changes in build 218

1. Now you can easily dismiss the audio player notification after pressing pause.
2. The audio player notification sound will also not be played in any way, which creates less discomfort when listening to audio tracks.

1.1, build 217

   Spoiler: it will not work on Android 2.3 and lower due to the lack of support for clickable controls in the system.
2. Fixed automatic transition to the next track.

1.1, build 215

Changes in build 215 (pre-release)

1. A section for personal videos has appeared.

4. And also fixes on little things.

1.1, build 214

Changes in build 214

1.1, build 211

1.1, build 211 - Go to Release!

Yes, we have reached the final release stage after 9 months of preliminary testing.

During this time there were many changes.

In particular, we rewrote literally everything, tried to turn areas of shitty coding into something optimized, corrected existing problems and added new sections of the application. The tasks of implementing FFmpeg were very difficult, so implementing your own video player alone was a bitch.

Among the changes compared to build 210:

1. Fix a receiver that did not work on devices from Samsung, HTC and some other manufacturers released after 2016.

Question 1: What should owners of beta builds do and how to update them to stable?
Answer: Either install the debug version (app-debug.apk), or delete the already installed beta build with data loss and install app-release.apk.

Question 2: Why is this so?
Answer: The fact is that the two APK files contain two different signatures. If the signature for the first APK file is intended for full release in production, then in the second file the signature is intended for testing, evaluation and other purposes.

1.1, build 210

Changes in build 210

1. In place of uk.openvk.android.legacy.api.modules.Newsfeed, the parse() function now performs a similar function from the Wall class, which simplifies the modularity of this API client.
2. Sending photos has been fixed, as UploadManager has been moved to use the receiver.
3. Some improvements under the hood.
