Description

Environment:

  • OS:
    iOS 26.1
  • IceCubesApp version:
    2.1.2

Description

  1. Active full timeline fetch
  2. Go to bed
  3. Open the app and tap any post
  4. Give timeline fetch some time to complete, look through the replies maybe
  5. Back of from the post, the timeline is now updated but you're at the top of it instead of the last position.

I noticed the issues specifically when viewing post details and have confirmed it is repeatable. It is possible that other things that hide the timeline like switching tabs or opening settings would have the same result.

Research direction

Reproduce the issue by starting a full timeline fetch, opening a post, waiting for the fetch to complete, and returning to the timeline. Trace the timeline update and position restoration around post details and other views that hide the timeline. Done means returning to the previous timeline position instead of the top after the fetch completes.
