  • Cool. I love it. Commented Oct 5, 2016 at 16:18
  • Great to see a UWP client! Sadly a lot of mobile devices are left out at this time due to the memory requirement. Where does the dependency on WebView come from?

  • Also, I'd love to help out. I've thought of making an app myself a few times, but thought it'd be too big of a project for me since I have almost no UWP experience currently.

  • Thanks for the update! I'll try it out tonight :) Just noticed that my device does have 1GB of memory, not sure why the Store said I didn't have enough memory...

Post viewing seems to be broken. The question is cut off and there's infinite scrolling, without being able to see the rest of the question or the answers. Also note that the post score says --3 while it should say -3.

sort the sites list alphabetically

Nobody's going to remember the order the sites were created in, which is the default ordering - I suggest ordering the sites list (for pinning sites) alphabetically instead. You can use a large pagesize (999) to get every site at once - the page size is not limited on the /sites route.

make links work

Links within posts aren't clickable. That should be changed.

work on adding the other features

such as close and delete votes, editing, flagging, etc. Doing all of them will take a long time, but if you start working now you'll get there sooner.

recognize moderators

I logged into the app with my moderator account, and it didn't appear to recognize the fact that I'm a moderator in any way. That'll be important for binding votes.


Yep, that's a lot of feature requests, but overall I like the app. It's got promise.

  • By recognition of moderators, do you mean visual glyphs that indicate that a user is a moderator, or additional functionality (in which case, would you care to be a bit more specific)?

    @RavinduLiyanapathirana Moderators have diamonds on Stack Exchange sites; they don't in your app.
