Feature Request: Delete draft reply w/o confirm if no text has been typed by me

Open huges84 opened this issue 2 years ago • 0 comments

I fairly often hit reply on a post and either decide that I want to check the other replies first or I just don’t want to reply anymore. But canceling is more steps than I think adds value.

The current design is:

  1. I tap “reply” on a post
  2. I type nothing (although there is some auto populated text)
  3. I tap “cancel”
  4. I am presented the option to “delete draft” or “save draft”. I have to hit “delete draft”
  5. I am taken back to the post from step 1.

I would rather the app skip step 4 and immediately delete the draft. I will lose nothing since I didn’t type anything. Even if I accidentally hit cancel, I will be right back at the post that I was replying to and can just tap that button again. Of course, if text was typed by the user in step 2, then the save prompt in step 4 is needed.

The behavior I’m requesting is already present for original (non-reply) posts. I’m just asking for the same on reply posts. I suspect the intended behavior is to have the same for reply posts, but that the current code is looking for an empty text field and the auto-populated quote of the post being replied to is being counted as user typed text.
