Observations

  • Is there any possibility to have videos longer than 60 seconds?
  • For all @APPICS posts, will there be a provision to have a title & text?
  • What are the word/character limits on the text, currently? Planned for the future?
  • Will there be multiple images in one post, like Instagram & @SteepShot?
  • Will hyperlinking text be provisioned?
Very encouraging roll-out. @APPICS

Just filled out the request form. I’m on iOS, I’d like to give it a shot.

Loving the fact that the pic can now be displayed in its full format! Keep up the great changes and little twitches that make a huge difference.

Thank you, great to hear you enjoy the update! 🙌

Hey Tomas, long time no see. I have to agree, the fact we aren't forced into a square is a great addition.

Thank you for mention! 😎🙏

🙌 Thank you! Yes we're working on improving it constantly!

Yes I am an Android user.

Hey @rocksg! Please contact [email protected] and she will guide you through the downloading process.

Is there going to be some way to access appics on a computer? It seems like a really interesting app, but I'm not usually fond of social media networks that are strictly mobile and don't have computer access.

I am loving the app. I was able to meet Chris at Steemfest and get an invite. This is the best photo app on the blockchain. Keep it up.

Hi @appics sir i make this dtube post about your update features hope you are enjoy it.

Thank you for the great update ! Can we expect the possibility of adding a description to our picture in an update to come? :)

You should be able to add a description, category, hashtags.

I’m sorry I wasn’t clear. You’re right, were able to add a description to our photo but once the post appears on Steemit, this description corresponds to the title of the post. I was wondering if we’d be able to add a body text to it in a future update. Thank you !
