View submission: [iOS][android] New post title requirement and a couple other helpful tips
Hello,
The new requirement makes it very difficult to report issues, by having to disrupt user work sequence to look at version number in the app, then manually return where you were to type it.
Please make these tags - os and version - fill automatically[1] (post abusively removed by mods/admins) by going into an app menu instead, where you would tap a "submit issue" menu, that would create a new draft post with these tags prefilled.

Currently "report a bug" sends me to a web view with a form[2], this should instead either go to a public github issue tracker or directly here with tags prefilled.

I don’t know if what you are requesting is possible in the app but if it were, I would imagine it requiring the devs to add something into the code to be able to parse that info and add it automatically. I know the website is capable of doing something similar since I’ve seen it added in text post bodies in select subreddits, but I don’t know if that’s something RES does or if it’s the site itself.
Right now, we’re just relying on an automod config to check the post titles and I don’t think automod would be able to do what you’re requesting.
Either way, only the devs would be able to answer this and I doubt they check in on this post.
I’m not sure why your linked post was removed but I will re-approve it right now and hopefully you’ll get an admin response on it.
