Hi @Flyview cool concept. You asked for feedback. I think you should allow the transitions to be slower 2 seconds is to fast.

I don't really understand the seconds of the transition is it random ?
You might want to show a small overlay as a tutorial on first start I found the one tap to pause which is nice and the two tap to like, but I liked a picture without knowing what the 2 tap would do and I don't know which one it was
I'd like a go back feature too, if you see a picture and right when it disappears you notice something but you can't go back, so just a see previous like a swipe right.
Living in Paris I learned with your app that most pictures on instagram are of the Eiffel tower

Getting a blank screen many times.

It will show a new picture whenever there is a new one available (up to minimum of every second), this will be configurable. I have to think of a good way to show previous pictures. I was thinking the old ones would become scrollable below but if someone new comes to the app they may think it's like Instagram where the point is to scroll down. And yes, intro overlay should be added as well. That's awesome about Paris haha!

What mode are you in? Are you watching a tag or area?

good idea, but this is what I get right after connecting. no access to anything!
btw does it work with gps only or can it localise based on network?

Cool idea but I think the suggestions above are a must. Keep it up man

Hmmm that's not good. Do you have Google apps installed? What's your Android OS and ROM? It'll work with whatever location provider is available, GPS is not necessary.

Do you mean "Google apps device policy"? no
I run 4.4.2 on Asus A86 device

@Flyview nice app i have few suggestions
1. Ability to select the distance range for nearby pictures
2. Ability to click the user of the pic uploader, which takes directly to their profile so that we can follow them.
3. Custom picture refresh time.
4. Add an overlay which has buttons to Pause/Play Previous/Next buttons.

tried uninstall, reinstall and login.
there is an error warning warning telling me i have to enable cookies in my browser, or disable private mode? then this blank screen all the time. only way to reach login page is uninstall/reinstall

Oh ok that makes sense then. You need to enable cookies in Chrome (or whatever browser the Instagram login page is using). Otherwise LivePics can't log you in to your Instagram account.

well i checked and cookies are enabled in every browser installed: default, chrome, firefox, opera. not sure witch one instagram is using. will dig deeper in settings.

Same problem, I only get a white screen. Running KiKat on a stock TMobile Note 3. Tried clearing data. Hangs on login screen usually, then it will give the login/cookies error message. If I get past that, back to white screen. Tried uninstalling, then reinstalling - same results.
04/14 - update installed this week - fixed the problem - working fine now.

I will see if it's anything that could be off in the code, a few people seem to be experiencing this. Any more info is appreciated.

So do you ever see the screen where you enter username/password for instagram or does the message come before that? A screenshot would be great!

error message appear after login. then blank screen.

Rotation of photos in Facebook and Google Photos

In FB and in Google Photos the rotation of some of my pictures are wrong.
The rotation is fine in the Xperia photo app.
Any suggestions to a solution.....or is it a bug? Am I the only one that has this experience?

I sometimes have this problem.
Very rare though.

I See It too.
I Rotated an image using Xperia Album App then I set it as wallpaper But when i wanted to upload it to instagram it was like first time (not rotated)
maybe Album App bug that not rotate the actual image file and maybe temporary file in cache or something!
or maybe rotate the frame of image in Album!
The Solution is using another app to rotate
:good:

Your solution is a possibility, but is really not good if you wanna take a picture and use it right away in ex. Facebook Messenger. You don't see the wrong rotation until the picture is in Messenger and then you have to edit the picture with another app....and then send it with Messenger

I have the same issue, but I think I have understood. My screen orientation is locked on portrait. When you take pictures the camera app still rotate.
So if you take a picture with camera in landscape mode and screen in portrait mode. the photo will be rotated... Hope I'm clear.

I tried to view some pictures on my PC that i'd taken yesterday and they were upside down! Don't think I was so drunk I took them upside down but you never know.
Always had rotation issues on Xperia I see it as a quirk of the phones.

A tiny help, NOT a NOOB question

I'm using Galaxy S7(non-edge). I'm dealing with a screen color uniformity issue (as you can see here).
I showed the device to guys at Samsung to create a technical report in order to get a replacement. But they can't even see a problem with my display. Since they didn't even bother the images I showed they asked me whether I can see a problem by playing some videos and all. But I said it's difficult to notice the problem when displaying various colors at once. Otherwise they asked me whether I can show the problem within the system(not with any images and videos). So I opened the Internet(Samsung stock browser) in 'Secret Mode' went to tabs section and displayed that screen(grey background) by closing the foreground tab. I want to confirm that there is no gradient on that screen. Can any of you guys post a screenshot of that screen?
Thanks

Whaaaaaaaaaaaat?

Please send a screenshot of Internet(Samsung's stock browser) in tab view with all tabs closed in secret mode.

Funny! I fell for it. It won't let you take a screenshot when in secret mode.

Try using HW buttons or Pixolor app please

Dude these idiots at samsung have no idea.
I had the same issue MULTIPLE TIMES!
amoled screens are not all equal and I almost always notice some minor flaw in every display.
My current one has pretty even color but there are 3 dark horizontal lines going across the screen in different areas. Kind of like shadows under the glass thats bery subtle but definitely visible when browsing stuff and scrolling up and down.
Just call and ask for a warranty replacement over the phone

Samsung OS doesn't allow to make screenshot in incognito mode in its browser. But I can confirm, that its background has no gradient on it.

IG Stories screen problem

Hi,
Am i the only one that is having issues/problem in watching stories on Instagram? They're too large/big for the screen. It seems a Instagram bug but it's really annoying..
Anyone else?

Me too
i've the same problem...maybe dipend in screen ratio?

Yepp, Instagram has to publish an update

Yup! Its freakin irritating.

Are you guys in notch AND fullscreen mode. or just notch no fullscreen, or notchless? Or does it not matter, and problem exists in all 3 scenarios?

IG stories works fine for me?
Sent from my ONEPLUS A6003 using Tapatalk

For me when I open an Instagram story, after the opening animation, I can see it slightly getting cropped

If the problem is that the stories are cropped by the notch go to display, full screen mode and scroll down to Whatsapp. For whatever reason Whatsapp is set automatically in full screen mode, if you select default no more cropping.

i have the same problem.
looks like IG is just overstretched off the screen.
Also the stretch seems like happening at the sides not at the top were the notch is.
Any solution for this?

same problem for me, also with Samsung S8 before Oneplus 6

Has there be any update on this?
It's like IG is upscaled and stretched to fit in the screen. However, parts of it are outside of the screen.

It's working for me..
But I noticed when I share stories in Instagram, the picture clarity is becoming low.. idk why..
tried uploading stories using both insta camera and op camera.. it's same.. camera clarity is becoming worse..
Anyone else having the same issue.?

Ig still doesn't support 19:9 phtots that's the reason the 16:9 stories of your friends look unscaled and vice versa. If you want your stories to appear perfect take pictures in 16:9 ratio thru the google camera or any other 3rd party app.

Guys we have to report that as much as we can (count wise), instead of discussing it here u can report the issue directly in the play store, the problem with oneplus is the number of selleings is not as much as the other gaints, means developers will care less about us, let ur voice be heard

Fixed for Honor 10

Hide Notch and use navigation bar instead of screen.
my vid how i did it.

Using the navigation bar instead of gestures fixes it.

Same here. Oneplus 6 screen ratio is too narrow than the other phones, so the sides get cropped from others stories. Also in other phones the top and bottom portions get cropped of my stories

That's not a solution, it's a workaround.

Use navigation bar and what display size?

I have this problem too. Nothing is fixing it.
