Warpcast

Introducing data usage settings on Warpcast (requires app store update)

By default we don't auto-play videos and we load lower-quality images on slow connections.

Now, you can enable this feature for cellular networks or to be always on.

More improvements in the works.

The open web is dead, long live the open web. ⌐◨-◨

Building Farcaster

You can find settings by tapping on your pfp on the top left, then the gear on the top right of the sidebar. Then you'll find "Data usage" in the Settings list.

As a fast follow, GIFs won't animate when data savings is on, you'll have to tap them for them to animate.

It'll only work for GIFs uploaded since Friday evening LA time.

someone-build

Has anyone built a "lite" warpcast, (data-wise), where it preloads only text and uses very little data so it can be accessed in remote/low signal locations? Or I.e. with a "click to load" option so images are only on demand.

Good feature, but can you let users decide what to auto-play and what not?

Is there any guidance about this feature?

thank you! 

assuming there will be another update regarding ‘load high quality images/videos’, like x/twitter?
