Welcome to v1.41.0. This release adds a feature I’ve wanted for a while now (but likely no one else wanted). This release adds the ability to record an advanced screenshot.
In some cases, posts and comments can contain animated GIFs. When taking screenshots of these, context may be lost because the GIF animation is removed. The record screenshot feature allows users to take a recording of a screenshot, preserving animated GIFs in posts or comments. The feature allows you to record a screenshot as either a GIF, MP4 or WEBM and contains a lot of configurable settings.
Note that this feature currently does not work for videos (eg. MP4s) in posts because the video player renders these in a specialized way that cannot be captured by the method used by the app.
Full changelog
- Added a feature to “record” a screenshot as a video or GIF.
- Added option to mark a post as read/unread in the post option’s menu.
- Changed long tap on the header, expand button or the side to expand actions as well.
- Fixed a bug where links are invisible in conversations.
That’s incredibly cool
