That's kinda' it. I'm on Android. My volume buttons don't do anything when the app is open.

As long as you are on version 1.0.96 or higher, you should have an option in the settings to turn off volume key comment navigation that should fix your issue.

Whoa. That should not be on by default. I'm all for experimental UI but I doubt many users will know what's happening with their volume. Apps should not be remapping hardware buttons in unfamiliar ways.

I've had several instances where a post hit me with surprise porn (that's somewhat on me for not noticing what community it was from on c/all) and then people are around hearing stuff. Cute me panicking when trying to shut it up.

Or even an innocent video that I can't hear. Definitely never change volume buttons by default without any warning.

Yeah I'm surprised Android even let's apps do this without a special permission.

But what if the volume buttons brought you porn? If you're not into porn, then what about if the volume buttons brought you Jesus?
