Pinching the screen (especially with single hand) doesn't reliably zoom images and I have to try multiple times to get it to work

Could you test if you can still reproduce it in these builds?

I have modified some code to isolate the problem.

Release version of 46

Depending on how you installed it might not allow you to install this release version

Note replacing an existing install with this version, will probably delete your app info (it should tell you) use debug version instead if that is not wanted app-release_zoomable.zip

Debug version of 46 app-debug_zoomable.zip

There is a release 46 on f-droid. This does not fix the issue (tested on a few photos including this https://i.redd.it/mm6682q8tgmb1.jpg and this https://i.imgur.com/XRKZAhR.jpeg)

Perhaps it is an issue with embedding from reddit images?

If you still want me to, I cab probably install the debug version and attempt further debugging.

The release on Fdroid does not contain these experimental changes.

Only the above builds

This does fix the issue for me

Can you also test if the problem is still fixed with this build and that the flick to exit works in the ImageViewer

It's not, as soon as the image moves vertically I can't zoom in anymore and it is easy to accidentally make it move before pinching. I think the image shouldn't respond to vertical swipes with two fingers at all and should have a small dead zone for single finger swipes. That's how WhatsApp seems to do it

Also the black background takes too long to disappear after a flick, it could be nicer if it faded away

Jerboa is a native-android client for Lemmy, built using the native android framework, Jetpack Compose.

Warning: You can submit issues, but between Lemmy and lemmy-ui, I probably won't have too much time to work on them. Learn jetpack compose like I did if you want to help make this app better.
