Did you try it ? How was it ? Tell us everything you think of this new Fediverse platform!
I’m unable to post a video through the app, and I’ve tried logging into the website to see if there’s an update, but it just sits there when I click ‘login’ - no error.
Are there any known issues? (My app is version 1.0.0.9 and I’m on the latest version of Android).
EDIT: I wasn’t using my email address to log into the website. Once in, I was able to download version 1.0.0.11 and it worked.
Nails the experience of mindless scrolling entertainment, for better or for worse. Definitely still a beta product, stuff like dark mode and skipping already-seen videos haven’t been implemented afaik. Still fun though. Hopefully there will be some way of interacting with it that doesn’t just contribute to lowest-common denominator videos, and can push interesting and thought-provoking content above silly cat videos.
I can’t make an account yet :(
The webpage OP linked says “We’re not accepting new users at this time.”, so it’s not surprising. They need additional instances to take on the burden of actually hosting the content, as they continue the software development.
yay thanks for reminding me. i had the application going for a while and forgot about it. just uploaded my first loop! i’m too old and “scared” for tiktok, so i love giving this a shot
It’s ok for how early it is but it needs a lot of work still (and content)
Yes, the app is reaaaally rough, and it really needs a web version (even TikTok has a web version)
Any Android app yet?
Yes there is! Loging to you account on loops.video and download the apk
I don’t like the amount of wasted screen space when accessing loops via the web. I feel there shouldn’t be space for the yellow border on the left / right of the video, just make the video bigger.
Yes same, it feels like it was made for small screens, and not well tested for others, but at least we have a web interface that works for now, it will be fixed later
I signed up for an account, but when I go to login it says I’m using the wrong credentials. I’m using a password manager so I don’t think that is possible. Tried a few times now, and even tried to register again. Anyone seeing the same issue?
I believe you still need to wait for your account to be confirmed, you will receive an email after sometime I believe.
How long is some time, are we talking hours or days?
