appear-in's Issues

Chat box is open when you start app

The chat box opens automatically when you start the webapp. It should ideally be closed by default on mobile devices. This is an issue that can only be fixed by appear.in at the moment.

Answer from appear.in with reference to mailing list post of 3 Mar 2016 and the below-cited follow-up.

Hi guys,

Sorry for the late reply! Great that you want to adapt appear.in to run on
Ubuntu Touch. Our mobile web version is a bit neglected, since we're a small
team we have to make pretty hard prioritizations about which
platforms/features to prioritize, and since we don't have very high usage of
the mobile web we have not done much work on it lately.

  1. They way mobile web is designed today, is primarily for first-time users
    being invited to a conversation, to be able to enter the conversation when
    clicking the link on their phone. This is the reason we don't have
    login/sign up in it. So, unfortunately, I don't think we'll be able to
    prioritize supporting login in the near future.

  2. The chat box is now open by default because we have a lot of young users
    using us primarily for video+chat. But we are now developing a premium
    version for business users, and then we'll likely add an option to have the
    chat closed by default (and have this enabled for all users on business
    accounts). So it's possible that we can make this possible to control with a
    query parameter. We hope to get something up an running for this the coming
    months.

Dag-Inge, our tech lead is responsible for the API, may help out with more
details, but he's currently away on vacation.

Let us know if you have more questions!

Hi folks,

I have started to package appear.in into a Web app for Ubuntu Touch.
The Web app is not yet fully functional, we've discovered two missing
implementation parts in the webapp-container (which is a part of
Ubuntu's Chrome-powered oxide browser) that are now being addressed by
Canonical, see [#1] if you're interested. I expect that to be fixed and
rolled out to all Ubuntu phones by the end of this month.

There are a few questions I need to address to you, though. The most
pressing ones are:

1.) Appear.in opens a room with the chat box open on the mobile device
browser screen. This is kind of okay, because there is still half of
the screen available for the actual video (only because no keyboard is
active, really, so you can't even type immediately), but it would be
nice if the chat box could remain closed by default. Is there a query
parameter in the URL or something else that I could use to address
this issue easily?

2.) Will logging in be available from the Web on mobile devices in near
future?

Thank you for your time and help,
Peter
