joemax Posted January 22, 2017 Report Share Posted January 22, 2017 I've had issues accessing the settings page on both Jelly Bean(4.1.1) and Marshmallow(6.0.1) On my Nexus 2013 running Marshmallow the personal button on the right only opened with My account, Maxnote, Passkeeper, uumail,history and download taking up the whole page. Settings and Close the Browser were not visible, nor was it possible to scroll the page. After a couple reboots the size of each settings(Maxnote, passkeeper,etc.) became smaller and all fit on the page including settings and close the browser. On my ZTE phone running Jellybean, same thing happened, but reboots didn't fix it. I can't access settings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vedicaudio Posted March 11, 2017 Report Share Posted March 11, 2017 First off, let me say that the cross-platform passkeeper feature is great, and seems to work well. It was long overdue, but thanks for finally getting it into MX5. As for the other aspects of the Android version of MX5, well, I'm not liking it so much. First, there is no option to send a tab for continued reading on another device, which was a main feature of v4. In fact, Maxthon made a very slick video to market v4 which emphasized this feature called "Cloud Push" as the main selling point of the Maxthon browser family. I'm not sure why this functionality has been abandoned. But the biggest issue for me is that Quick access tabs are totally lost from previous installations. Why would I want to start from scratch with default sites like twitter and facebook, which I don't use, instead of automatically importing the QA tabs from my v4 installation on the same device, or importing from MX5 cloud? In the year 2017, apps are expected to import data from previous versions! Is there some way to import the v4 QA tabs? I really don't want to spend time re-creating 20 different tabs! Maxthon should also make it clear if they intend to maintain two separate QA systems (one for mobile, one for desktop) and whether each is synced to the cloud. In other words, if I installed MX5 on another Android device, will it sync the QA tabs from my first installation, or will I have to start from scratch on every single device?

PHYR Posted March 12, 2017 Report Share Posted March 12, 2017 As far as cloud push, have you tried Maxnote? It's like an automatic cloud push giving you several options to save pages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like an automatic cloud push giving you several options to save pages. I've tried Maxnote, but I'm not sure how I would use that to force a tab to pop up on another device. Cloud push was very useful in the case of, for example, browsing on desktop, finding a great recipe, and then sending that recipe to tablet to use in the kitchen while cooking. I don't always want to save a tab into favorites just to be able to open it on another device. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I also hope it can be back if we collect enough user request on it.

PHYR Posted March 18, 2017 Report Share Posted March 18, 2017 7 hours ago, ElectroSelf said: Tablet settings rotation checked. MX5 still no option Mx5 does have the option and it works on both my tablet and phone. Which version do you have installed? If you have the version from the top of this page try updating from the app store. If you have the most recent update try toggling the switch, (uncheck the option and check it again) Otherwise it might be an issue with your operating system. I'm not sure this version is designed for the Amazon Fire, I think there used to be a separate version especially for it, no idea if it's still available. The least you could do is tell us which version you have installed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then again, Maxthon is syncing everything else in the cloud for all users, and if "not many people use it" then I wouldn't think it really takes up that much server resources. But oh well, I won't complain about this one anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
