I'm testing something out and putting the release post out before the update is released fully. This update will be live later today.

This update adds "left-hand mode" which attempts to make the app more friendly for left-handed users. This is done by moving a lot of frequently tapped items to the left side of the screen, making them easier to tap with one hand if you were using your left hand.

This update also adds a bunch of other settings and improves site wide searching. See the changelog for details.

Full changelog

• Added filters to search. Searches can now be filtered by user or community.
• Added left-hand mode. Enabling left hand mode will cause certain UI elements to shift to the left of the screen.
• Added a setting to make the notification bar completely transparent. This might only work on certain versions of Android.
• Added a setting to lock the bottom navigation bar.
• Added a messages that displays when the app is updated with a link to the changelog post (like this one).
• Added a text editing function that will "spongebobify" the highlighted text by alternating the characters in upper and lower case.
• Changed the default to enable full image previews for post layouts. Currently the default uses a fix aspect ratio for all image. Of course this is configurable so you can turn this setting off if you do not like it.
• Changed the default to retain the state of the last post visited. This means if you read a post, leave and go back you will be taken back to exactly where you were before. You can disable this in settings if you do not like it.
• Changed the tap area for collapsing comments. Tapping on the left side where the thread lines are will also collapse the comment.
• Fixed a bug when prefer full images is on. Reduce the likelihood of UI elements jumping when scrolling due to image loading.
• Fixed a bug that sometimes cause only parts of an image to show when prefer full image is on. Note that if the image is too long, only aa portion of that image will be shown. This hasn't changed.
• Fixed a bug where only upvotes were counted in the total score in some places.
• Fixed a bug where not all saved comments are shown in the saved page.

Update

I accidentally enabled left-hand mode by default instead of enabling restore last post by default. v1.8.3 will fix this issue. The update should be available in a couple of hours.
