I noticed that there are a couple of very useful post-creation features available on the web version that are currently missing from the mobile app.
Specifically, on the web, we have the ability to Preview a post before publishing it, as well as the option to Schedule the post to be published at a later time. Right now, neither of these options are available when creating a post via the app.
My suggestion: It would be fantastic to bring both the "Preview" and "Schedule" features to the mobile app. Having feature parity with the web version would give users much more flexibility and control over their content while on the go.
Thanks as always for your hard work and attention to these details!
Hi Andre — great timing, and great minds! Both of these have actually just landed in version 1.3.5.
- Preview — when you're writing a post you can now preview it exactly as it'll appear before it goes live.
- Schedule — pick a future date and time and the post publishes itself then. There's also a new Scheduled Posts screen where you can see everything you've got queued up (that's the one place they live, since the normal feed only shows posts that have already gone out). Times follow the site's clock, so "Sunday 9am" means the same for everyone.
A couple of notes to match how it works on the web: scheduling is available to moderators and admins (same as Fluent Community's own rule), and it needs Fluent Community Pro on the site.
We've pushed 1.3.5 as an over-the-air update, so it should already be live in the app for you — you may just need to fully close and reopen it to pick up the update. The App Store / Play Store versions take a few more days to roll out.
