really just 2 new features and minor bug fixes.
- expandable episode/part list. now you can click on the the episode tracker & select any episode you want.
- added an update checker/pop up on launch. running into the issue most play store developers have which is people not installing updates. so after 4.1 if there's an update your app will let you know.
going from 3.7 to 3.9 with the updates. 3.8 was a minor update with bug fixes but i was adding more features so i started working on 3.9 before i had pushed 3.8
3.9 Release Notes:
- Added the ability to Link Account (and Unlink) with your Internet Archive account in a new Web Accounts section in settings. There are no passwords or account info saved by Archive Dive, the app only checks for the log in cookie to see if you've linked your account & it is solely for unlocking certain features like commenting or reading documents with a block.
- document museum exhibits now track pages read.
- added "write a review" button to the comment section.
- other minor bug fixes for playback, museums, document loading and more.
Release Notes:
Beyond excited to have passed the 1000 install goal! Thank you to anyone who has it installed! Attached a video for anyone who doesn't have it installed and wants to see what it's about before downloading.
In celebration the 3.5 update was pushed out this morning. It overhauls the app to now have 3 different Feeds. Video, Audio & now Documents!
Now you can watch movies, tv shows, anime, & more on the Video Feed. Find albums, podcasts, radio broadcasts and more on the Audio Feed. & Find books, comics, manga, government documents, manuals, etc on the Document Feed.
Still with separate "Museum Exhibits" for each feed to save and organize anything you find.
Update 3.6 was just to fix a few minor bugs caused by the 3.5 update. Primarily for tablets but fixed some edge to edge display issues on phones as well.
I can't even believe we are already at 750 installs! I'm glad people love the app so far.
So here's a sneak peak of what's planned for the 1000 install update 3.5.
A fully implemented THIRD feed to switch over to a document/text mode. Find random books, magazines, manga, manuals, etc & read them right in app. With all the same Museum functionality of the other feeds so you can save and organize the collection.
We are on track to hit 1000 installs by this weekend so be on the look out for the update! & I can't wait to hit the next milestone of 2500 installs. I have an even bigger update planned that should be a surprise to everyone.
Play Store Link - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zacksong.archivedive&pcampaignid=web_share
So first off we just hit 400+ installs! On the road to 1000 users & I'm hoping to get there by this weekend.
Next I pushed a new update last night for version 3.4 so here's just an update on the things that were changed.
- Upgraded Google billing to the latest version for enhanced security for anyone going ad-free.
- New Weighted Feed Algorithm allows advanced users to take control of their feed's algorithm and randomization. When Weighted Tags are enabled, you can assign high or low weights (up to 10) to specific tags, massively increasing their chance of appearing in the feed.
- Massive Tag expansion from 30 to 60 tags in video feed. Also added more genre tags for the Music feed. Can be sorted alphabetically now too from the appearance settings.
- New algorithm logic for weighted tags. Had to rewrite the feed algorithm for when weighted tags are turned on. So turning it on completely overhauls the feed to give you control over it.
- A few bug fixes that were found.
One milestone at a time. But Archive Dive is projected to pass 1000 users by the end of the week according to my developer dashboard.
I'm glad everyone has been liking it. & i'm glad people have been finding so much great content on there.
Once we hit the 1000 install mark I will push the next big update, so tell your friends to install too.
Technically version 3.1 but its the official release 1.0 for the Google Play Store
