Right now we are doing research wether an official app is feasible or not. Depending on the results, we will either make an app for android & ios or implementing login on the mobile site. We think that we will get more users to join HUGELOL if there is an official app.

So, a public API could solve this with 3rd-party apps. However, they simply abandoned it with HL 3.0 and my WP app stopped working without a warning...

This is a pretty old post+comment but would it be too bad to try and work with the community a bit on the app? I mean I'm pretty sure the community has some pretty good programmers and such (since people have created "bot finder" scripts) and it would really help everyone to get a pretty solid mobile app that we can still use to be apart of the community from our phones, because without the ability to login and then comment and upvote, I don't find myself using the mobile version of the site even when i am out of the house

It would still be a good idea to have a login on the mobile site. If the site is good enough, you would not need to create seperate apps for each device, with the added benefit of reducing costs (as a small update for the website would not need to be implemented in every mobile OS).

Also, as a side note, the webms in the comments have a very weird controls in chrome due to their small size. Would it be possible to automatically expand the webm in the comments?

We've planned a gamble competition and we'll participate in it. So just wait and we will.

If you don't like gambling then you are actually going to like this one. Can't tell you guys more yet though.

What about the public API?

HUGELOL · Administrator · OP · 2 points · 8 years ago

See http://hugelol.com/lol/398033/comment/1919099. An official app would use the same API.

Make a Webm category like Woah

Anonymo · 8-Year Club · 2 points · 8 years ago

That's great and all. Could we also please get webm with audio on mobile?

HUGELOL · Administrator · OP · 5 points · 8 years ago

Open a post and audio should play on there.

Anonymo · 8-Year Club · 0 points · 8 years ago

Thanks for the reply. While this works it puts me out of my scroll-flow. I don't want to load a fresh page, start the video and then go back to where I were. When I click on a webm to play it I certainly want it to come with sound. Why would I watch it without the audio? If you don't want to change this, could we possibly at least have an option for this in the settings, please?
