Fixes the following issue(s)

Fixes: Option to reset settings. #9036

APK testing

The APK can be found by going to the "Checks" tab below the title. On the left pane, click on "CI", scroll down to "artifacts" and click "app" to download the zip file which contains the debug APK of this PR.

Due diligence

I read the contribution guidelines.

TobiGr

Thank you for the PR.

Please remember to make new strings translatable.

There are no debug settings in the release APKs. Therefore, placing this action into the debug settings does not solve the problem or use case mentioned in the issue. We should find a better place for it. Unfortunately, I cannot think of a category that somehow works on this. IMO it's time to create a new settings category (Backup & Restore maybe?). It should contain the backup actions which are currently placed in history & cache.

@ All, what do you think on that suggestion?

+        android:title="@string/settings_category_reset_title"

We need to ensure that the title is fully displayed on small devices:

app:iconSpaceReserved="false" />

app:singleLineTitle="false"

app:iconSpaceReserved="false" />

I see. Thank you for pointing it out. I have committed the changes.

I see. Thank you for pointing it out. I have committed the changes.

I think you can start working on the solution TobiGr mentioned above. I will help you.

Since the deadline is passed and we have more assignments to do, also 4 final exams and a 2000-word essay are coming. We have to wait until 15 Nov or later to continue to work on this PR

Ok, don't worry, and good luck with exams! ;-)

I will turn this PR into a draft for now, feel free to write a comment once you get back on it, so that we see it

Understood. Thank you.

You can already reset your settings by clearing your storage for the app.

EDIT:I forgot to mention it would also clear out all your history for the app! Sorry for the confusion 😞

LGTM
Please wait for approval by second maintainer regarding new settings structure

opusforlife2 · 2023-09-18T20:46:39Z

I would say let's have an extra precautionary step before the task is executed. The alert dialog should have a check box that needs to be checked before the Yes button can be tapped, until which it will remain greyed out.

TobiGr · 2023-09-18T20:59:03Z

Having one dialog with CANCEL and OK is the same flow used for clearing the watch and search history as well as the playback positions. I think it should be consistent with these similar actions.

opusforlife2 · 2023-09-18T21:10:09Z

Well, there should be a check box for those too. Any destructive action should have this double check. It's different from PC where you usually have to move the pointer quite a distance to execute the task. On Android, mis-taps are far more likely to occur. (e.g. just today I accidentally deleted an important SMS from its heads-up notification and had to request a re-send.)
