Comments for Android

★★★★★ There are currently some issues with Zapping, but I am confident the team who are actively developing the App will fix this soon! This is my favorite Nos tr client by far!

★★★★★ The app is fantastic. I would have given 5 stars, but there is an annoying bug. In the background, the app keeps playing a video, silently without sound, nonstop draining the battery. The video is from the video feed or from a note I have seen recently. I can see it pinned in the phone's player, on loop. Even when I end task, and start the app again, it immediately starts playing the same video.

★★★★★ Superior Android client for Nos tr that is constantly updating in the best ways possible

★★★★★ This is the BEST app with which to experience Nos tr! By far the most feature rich and high performance Nos tr client out there. It supports the most different event types, and has the ability to edit or even delete your posts. Frequent updates with bug fixes and new features means the app keeps getting better. Try a new and better social media experience with Amethyst on Nos tr. Wi-Fi or unlimited mobile data is recommended with this app.

★★☆☆☆ It is a fine client, don't get me wrong. Unfortunately I use NIP-26 delegated event signing and the Minds relay nodes do not load properly, but they do on another client. Please get that working and then five stars.

★★☆☆☆ Way too much pornographic content. The default Amethyst & Nos tr conversations you have when your first download are crammed with Bitcoin spam and porn. I found out you can leave those, and I tried to remove anything else I could. Even still the Video feed section and the sideways Wi-Fi icon section with the marketplace and live (if set to global) just shows more random porn. This is not what I wanted and there's apparently no way to delete/leave all that stuff. Maybe don't include those by default?

★★☆☆☆ When manually! Typing in all letters of a nos tr npubxxxxxxx address public key or what this address is actually called, this amethyst app frequently crashes when kind of live substring matching or subset search is being filtered and executed on the backend data store and structures i kind of figure. Only when rather quickly advancing beyond the first few many characters it went on to accepta full npub adress all typed in manually. Tested with jacks address: npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swj...

★★☆☆☆ Has changed to allow editing of notes and forking notes by other people. This ruins NO STR. I will not support this developer anymore. I don't want people censoring my voice by editing my notes.

★★☆☆☆ Apparently this is social media, but I have no idea how it works. I can't follow anybody. I click a subject, and it says "job requested waiting for reply" and nothing happens. I'm in a chat with random people that are talking about nothing. What the hell is this?
