Announcing Olas 0.1! Olas is an Instagram-like client for iOS and Android. Olas 0.1 provides a feed of videos (like those on flare/highlighter/zap.stream), picture events (kind:20, a new kind that no client had implemented yet) and the classical short notes with images attached we are all used to. When publishing images, Olas uses the new kind:20, in a future release you’ll be able to control whether to publish as a short note so that it appears in microblogging clients too. Some more features already available: βœ… blossom uploads 🌸 βœ… NIP-22 replies βœ… Reels (still quite buggy though) βœ… Edit your preferred blossom servers βœ… Edit your nutsack mint list βœ… Image download optimization (to be gentle with mobile data plans) Coming next: - NIP-55 (Amber) Logic - Fix NIP-46 (bunker) login - complete NIP-60 (nutsack) wallet - Add NIP-57/61 zaps + nutzaps - Bookmarks - NIP-29 support: you’ll be able to create private or public communities where to share photos and videos with; imagine creating a private group just for your family or friends where you can publish pictures you don’t want to share with the world; or a community for artists. Android users got a chance to get a glimpse of it already since nostr- active app stores like Zapstore are 100x easier to work with than permissioned stores. EXPECT BUGS, this is an alpha release.

I pushed a new version an hour ago; it should be more stable than yesterday’s release
Installed! A couple things out of the gate: - How do I login? - Auto detected dark mode which is great but when typing a text caption I can’t see the text. - Can’t dismiss keyboard past this point. image
I also noticed on iOS when uploading a photo and then adding text, I am unable to see what it is that I’m typing. It will not go down to see the text box. See screen cap here. The ui does feel nice though.

The version on iOS is called Snapstr.
Hi, I have installed Olas, but I can’t do anything. I only see this screen image
Super excited to try this out. On android, images don't seem to be loading for me. Also the bottom icons aren't respecting my dark mode settings, so a bit hard to see Awesome work though!
But let's say it was using kind 20 only, I guess this would represent exactly what I intended to do with gallery entry events. Basically images you want to share and put in your profile gallery, and not every screenshot from every shitpost. It's a bit redundant to have 2 kinds for the same thing, I think. Just the way you create these currently in Amethyst is a bit different than actively posting a kind 20 event, like this client does. But it could be similar.

Ooooh shit; I know what happened, apparently after deploying I need to push explicitly to the general tester group the new version; the version everybody installed is like 1 day old!!
my first time releasing something on Testflight, looks like I needed to be explicit about which version the link points to; I just thought it would point to the latest one πŸ˜…
Apparently I need to now wait for the central planners at Apple to approve the fucking release; I thought in TestFlight you could just deploy and the review bullshit was just for the App Store…
You don't have to wait for review πŸ€”at least not one in the traditional sense, for Testflight. Unless something has changed since I last launched an iOS app.
Ah that explains it. I think quite a few of us wanted to try/test it out πŸ˜…

yep, saw this! I have it on my phone now. Seems to be a bit buggy on my end still. The images appear rather squished when viewing in the homescreen
Dark mode needs work. And nothing happens when I click Publish. Also when logged in, I'd like my home feed to be only people and tags that I follow. Maybe a button somewhere to turn global on. Anyway, very cool stuff! image
πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘ i still need to add support for multiple images in one post πŸ‘
