The lines wrap so much on v1.0.85 that only a few items can be displayed.

Edit: This is on the world's most low end tablet, Azpen A727.

  • I assumed 1.0.85 is the newest version you're using. If it's incorrect, please edit it. I also add "Android tablet" as a generic info, but if possible, include the tablet model to help debugging.

  • Thanks, you are correct on the version. I added the tablet type.

  • Also on Galaxy Tab 8.4 with 1.0.85. Pretty annoying, makes Feed extremely uncomfortable.

  • @ShadowWizard then StackExchange should pull it from the Google Play store.

  • @ShadowWizard It should still be pulled in that case. (Abandoned = pull it; not maintaining = pull it)

  • @ThomasWard I strongly disagree that this app should be pulled just because of this feed formatting issue. Every other part of this very useful app seems to work fine. FYI - App Version: 1.0.89 - Device Manufacturer: samsung - Device Model: SM-T550 - OS Version: 6.0.1 (T550XXU1BPK1)

    I like the app overall. This seems like an easy fix, especially since it used to be ok. Don't know why they've ignored it.

    Just a note that I'm looking into this. It's a lot harder to solve than I had hoped. We use GridLayouts on the tablet feed view, with the Hot Questions Container and "EARLIER TODAY" date as full-width spans while everything else is supposed to go 2 to a line -- All the quick changes I've tried to get the feed items to display 2 to a line correctly on smaller width tablets make the feed fail on larger screens, so it's a delicate fix. I'm working on this and have a repro of the issue, though.

  • @KasraRahjerdi As of this morning it looks good again. Not sure how to accept / close this kind of meta question. Do you post an answer?

  • @OrganicMarble you could post an answer with info like version that fixed the issue and providing the screenshot. That doesn't prevent the devs to post official answer, so it's safe.

  • I wonder why they don't use a single column layout.

The latest update (1.0.93) appears to have significantly improved the formatting on the feed.
