medium-no-thanks's Issues

In App Updates

This is just a suggestion that if you have time you can enable in app updates using microsoft appcenter :D

Bug report

Opens blank doesn't show anything. After installing and opening is there something else I have to do to see content?

Feature Request

Is it possible to add clapping ability in there? I get it it's just a webview, but maybe if users can sign in or it can use the default medium app sign in account to clap and all.

//Nevermind I am not asking for a standalone app, it could be possible just by using web2apk but medium's android app is silly and feature less//

Integrate Android app links

As a feature suggestion, you could implement Android app links so it automatically opens the app when clicking on a medium.com link.

Sometimes webview gives error net::ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS

Hi, just found this application on random reddit
Thanks for building something like this but I found some issues that has been happening sometimes or to some posts.

I'm facing net::ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS
On some of medium articles that are behind the paywall.

example of article which is having issues

Tried with an article but it didn't work

https://towardsdatascience.com/the-mostly-complete-chart-of-neural-networks-explained-3fb6f2367464

this was the article but nothing happened. It seems to be working no longer.

How to download&install instructions?

I do not see any, it is not on apkmirror either

Suggestion

Maybe put this on apkmirror?
