    I just had a surgery and can't work in anything right now, but I'll try and test this in a couple weeks. In the mean time, update the OS if available. I believe you should be able to update to Android 5.x. A quick work-around is to long touch the page link and have it open in the browser...

    Hah, yea, it took me weeks to figure that out in the mobile site. You have to go to a forum page first of course, but then you have to click the "share" icon on the top right to see the new thread option.

    Many thanks! There have been two thousand downloads now, which is more than I ever expected, and why I put the time in to make it the best it can be. I also prefer to use the app, even though I only have it loaded on my old phone, since I have an iPhone now. That also helps me test usability...

    I got a review stating the same problem with uploading, so I tested again, and this time was able to reproduce the error. I've rewrote the image upload method for Android 5 to fix this issue. Asides from code optimizations, there shouldn't be a lot of other changes in build 61. I have added a...

    I'm sure the video is playing. I bet you are just experiencing the video playback issue described in the FAQ. Make it full screen and you'll see it. Since there is no sound in that video it is harder to identify the situation. As for the upload problem. I don't know what it could be. It works...

    If you are having problems uploading pics, make sure you aren't plugged into your computer, as that blocks your external storage from the apps. Please send me a link to the page with the video that won't play. If it is playing sound but no video then this is a known issue and you just need to...

    Yup, I hear ya. The auto refresh has been completely eliminated in the next build. It is ready to publish now, but I'm going to hold off at least until tomorrow to see if I can squeeze any more improvements in by then. The biggest change is that notifications will throttle down to one per hour...

    Try long pressing the link and choosing "Open in browser" (or just search the Play store for Google keyboard.

    It should open the external links outside of the app. This functionality hasn't really changed since the first version. Since they are play store links it should give you the option to open in the Play store, or a browser. Oh yea, and you can always get to the FAQ from inside the app by just...

    Check the new FAQ, where there is a link for updating your keyboard. It certainly isn't necessary on all phones, but would probably be an excellent upgrade on most Android 4.x devices. Kukupecpec and I have already discussed this issue in messaging, but for the sake of posterity... The 4.4.2...

    That is great news! Do you mind sharing what helped? Was it just not selecting the spell checker, or did you have to change keyboards? Or did the new version just work?

    Okay, I've pushed out build 51. Fixed the image upload issue above, and also added the Camera option for Android 5 users. My testing of image uploads worked on every version of Android, even version 6, which isn't readily available yet. I also added the context menus, and the ability to open an...

    Thanks, will be fixed in build 51 for sure.

    Very strange. This could be helpful information, because I've only been able to replicate it on 3.0. A fix might be possible after all. I'll run some more tests and try and send out an update within a week. So if you leave it installed it should update automatically, and once you see the update...

    Check the FAQ, by clicking my signature, where known issues are listed at the top. I'm guessing you are using Anroid 3 (let me know if not). Edit: https://www.backyardchickens.com/a/byc-android-app

    The current version in the app store has the following improvements: - Counter badges for replies and msgs always show on top menu buttons. - Resuming the app will refresh the page automatically, as well as redirect to new msgs/replies. - Quick Search lets you search BYC from any page...

    No, I don't think it is your phone. I think I know what happened now. I think your saved notification preference cannot be updated because it is corrupt. So all you should need to do is LOGOUT to clear the stuck preference. (You could also go into app settings and clear the App Data). The next...

    I just pushed out a new update that adds "Loading..." to the launch screen and an About menu item, which displays the version (6.0.35). It fixes the keyboard hiding text, and he issue of ads blocking buttons, but I didn't find any problems with notifications. Let me know if you get this update...

    Did you manually update from the Play store? The notifications were only broken yesterday as far as I know. Even if you have turned on auto-update for the app, you won't get the update immediately unless you go to the Play store and touch Update. I will work on fixing the ad space. I thought...
