Besides adding a confirmation to cancel a print job, people think that cancel means to close the window instead of canceling the job. We need to add 'Print' to the text

When moving axis or controlling fan speed we are now flying bling. Will better to be able to see the printer while making these changes

Job progress is used for printing but also for copying files to SD Cards (and maybe other things?). It is confusing to have text like 'Cancel Print' that will cancel uploading a file to an SD Card. We need to rename 'Print' to 'Job' in the job information dialog

Hi, , want to try your project but i ned ios 10 support. Please make convenient for all of us :)

OctoPod is being downloaded all around the world. We need to add the ability to translate the app to other languages.

Add Spanish support as a test.

We could have a setting that remembers the last sort criteria. We could sort alphabetical (folders fist and files next) or sort by uploaded date. We will need to do sorting in memory since it does not seem to be supported by OctoPrint API.

Let users disable each individual motor

OctoPrint supports http://docs.octoprint.org/en/master/features/custom_controls.html and it would be nice to be able to "render defined controls" and be able to "execute a custom control".

We need to investigate how we can get list of Custom Controls from OctoProint and request OctoPrint to execute a given Custom Control.

Error seems to happen since dialog is not presented in main thread. Weird thing is that I never saw this in my tests but it was reported via Apple crash logs

There is no visual indication that indicated the field and the problem that has an invalid input text. This is affecting the URL in the printer page.

Print time left should never be negative but there is a plugin that makes OctoPrint return a negative value. Display 'Unknown' when this happens instead of 'About -2 min'

It would be nice to be able to send gcode commands from the app

In certain situations, the progress bar was not showing the proper progress even though we were setting the proper value.

We can show a one time text that says that with a tap you can go full screen and with a pinch you can do zoom in/out. Once user used these features the message is gone

So I just installed you app and I was 70% through a print when I connected to octoprint via the app. After I connected the printer communication to ocotprint was interrupted causing the printer to go out of sync, stop receiving commands which was still being sent by octoprint and the failure of the print.

I think and I’m probably wrong, when you connect to octoprint via the app it actually sends a comment to octoprint to connect to the printer, which causes it to try and connect again even if it is already connected. If this is true that it would interrupt the communication between the printer and octoprint, which would cause the printer to reset when a new connection is made and cause it to go out of sync.

Or it could be something else that cause this problem but I figured I would post this as this is what happened when my print failed.

I need to be able to invert the Z axis so that movements are going in the expected direction for my printer.

It is useful to see history of temperatures.

Just like we are getting crash logs from users, it is important to measure the user sentiment with the app. But we need to ask for this in a friendly and non-intrusive way.

Sharing list of printers between iOS devices would be awesome!

The app will be used under different light conditions so offering ways to customize colors via themes will help with this.

We are only showing files stored at the root level and ignoring folders. We should allow users to navigate the whole tree. Otherwise, it is confusing and people think they have no files.

Show folders first (alphabetical) and files after (alphabetical)

We can now do pause, resume and cancel of a print. Add the option to restart it.

Thread 1: Fatal error: Can't remove more items from a collection than it has

Seems to happen when copying files to SD card via OctoPrint

Files tab shows whatever files OctoPrint server has loaded. In the web ui it is possible to ask OctoPrint to load files from the SD card to refresh the list of files. We need to be able to do the same thing from the app

If I try to start a print from the files tab on iPhone X IOS 12 beta 3 the file is not actually loading or starting to print.

I am connect ok as I can move the bed and axes with the controls.

iPhone X IOS 12 beta 3
OctoPrint 1.3.9 running on OctoPi 0.151
Original Prusa MK2.5 running 3.2.0 firmware.

OctoPrint exposes a terminal view. It would be good to do the same in OctoPod. When doing this we should move "send GCode" to this window so you can now send a GCode and see results (if any)

We currently store 100 messages in the terminal log. A few times OctoPrint might send a little over 100 messages so we end up losing all history. We should increase buffer size to 200 to have a small memory footprint but still provide a good UX

OctoPrint does not seem to expose a REST API for doing this but we could send Marlin GCode commands to achieve this.

Add confirmation dialog before disconnecting

Hi,

First off, great work on he app, it is vey impressive.

I would love to have the ability to toggle the psu if plugin “PSU Control” is installed.

A setting to add/remove in app even as not everyone would you it.

At present I have to open octoprint webpage to toggle psu then switch to the app.

Any who, keep up the good work.
Rob

I just want to say: great to have a new alternative! An open source one even better!

I just had a quick look through the UI. I propose to change the label "HOTEND" to "EXTRUDER" - as the HOTEND does not move the filament:-)

I have yet to try the app in action though. Also I have not seen the homing buttons. They are usually helpful as well

Would be nice to swipe to change between different cameras that are monitoring the printer. OctoPrint can handle one and is not ideal to put more on OctoPrint since it can affect printing. People are expected to have a different camera (and server) when they want to monitor from different angles.

This enhancement is to allow multiple cameras to monitor the printer. Users will need to install plugin MultiCam and configure there the multiple cameras. OctoPod will read this configuration and follow the same setup.

Authentication credentials will still be one, so printer setup is not going to change. Credentials are used for authenticating with the reverse proxy.

Users could use something like MotionEyeOS to setup cameras. Leave streaming authentication disabled. If you want authentication then rely on reverse proxy authentication.

Update app version before release

Some printers do not have support for SD cards so disable 'Refresh SD' button under Files tab if this is the case.

Test that app works for iOS 10.2 and submit to app store

OctoPrint's admin console exposes plugins and some functionality that is not available in OctoPod. It would be nice to be able to offer the option to use OctoPrint's admin console from the app. Bonus if we can do SSO.

When selecting a new printer as the new active (in the drop down on the top left) we can make it clearer which printer is currently in use.

After print job from SD card is done (100%) and printer has been disconnected, the printed job information dialog shows Origin as Unknown. Since there is no job information available, we should show empty origin.

it would be nice to invert or rotate the camera via software to compensate for orientation like Octoprint allows for in the WebCam settings as well as the Octolapse plugin.

Besides being able to print files from the list of files that OctoPrint has, it would be nice to be able to upload a file from iCloud and then be able to print it.

When OctoPrint has TPLink Smartplug plugin installed it is possible to turn the printer on/off. It uses a hardware like this.

We can expose the plugin functionality in OctoPod via the plugin API.

We need to have a way to collect logs of crashes that users experience. A good option seems to be: https://firebase.google.com/docs/crashlytics/

Printer may have several extruder. We need to allow users to control flow rate for each extruder.

Use http://docs.octoprint.org/en/master/api/printer.html#issue-a-tool-command for this

It is not very evident that you can control temperature of extruder and bed by clicking on wrench icon. Keep thinking how to make this clearer

Since canceling a print job cannot be recovered, we need to add a confirmation dialog.

Check if this is possible. User would use two fingers to zoom in and then live stream will remain at that level of zoom in. Of course option to zoom out will be there too.

I do not remember seeing this with OctoPrint 1.3.8 but now with 1.3.9 I'm seeing that sometimes received JSON via websockets is garbled (mixed up with other content), or cut in the middle or many JSON objects transmitted with no end in between. When this happens, sometimes the situation is not recoverable and the websocket needs to be recreated and things work fine again.

This is a good recovery technique that is good to have in any case. If after 6 consecutive messages we failed to parse the JSON then recreate the websocket. If we still have 6 more consecutive problematic JSON messages then give up and alert in the UI that we are not refreshing.

[!] Automatically assigning platform ios with version 10.2 on target OctoPod because no platform was specified. Please specify a platform for this target in your Podfile. See https://guides.cocoapods.org/syntax/podfile.html#platform.

Starscream is the library we use for websockets. We need to update from 3.0.2 to 3.0.5 that fixed many bugs. See https://github.com/daltoniam/Starscream/releases
