Chan FAQ
Why isn't the app displaying the content I expect?
By default, the app is set up to browse a test server; you can edit your content preferences in the app settings to browse a different imageboard.
Why are some settings located on a web page instead of in the app?
This is to comply with Apple App Store guidelines, as not all settings are allowed to be modifiable within the app.
How can I quickly scroll to the top or bottom of a thread?
Tap the status bar to scroll to the top; hold the post counter at the bottom-right to scroll to the bottom.
