After Pixiv could not be accessed, various third-party applications sprang up one after another. The basic functions of these applications are similar, that is, they all contain the design of "agent free", but they have their own characteristics. This article will introduce an APP with excellent design style, which is not limited to viewing and collecting pictures, but also has other additional functions.

For Pivision, please move to《 Pixiv third-party client "PivisionM" 》Read.
For PixEz Flutter, please move to《 Pixiv third-party client "PixEz Flutter" 》Read.

use

1. Login


Due to the revision of pixiv login method, the quick registration method has failed, and the login requires the use of a proxy.

Registration method (invalid)


The login process of Shaft is very interesting. In addition to ordinary account login, temporary account login is also supported. This is similar to the official APP, which is convenient for users without accounts to use temporarily. This is also a function that is not available in the other two third-party applications I have introduced. Therefore, we can reasonably use this function to register accounts.

The specific methods are:

  1. Click "No account?" on the login page, enter a random nickname, and click "Register account" to directly enter the application
  2. Then click "Edit account information and email binding" in the sidebar settings and enter the email address (QQ email is available). However, due to network problems, the email cannot be verified
  3. To modify the password and Pixiv ID, please note that this ID can only be modified once, so it is not recommended to modify it
  4. Finally, click "Update Account Information"
  5. If you need to modify your avatar, click "Profile Settings" to upload it

The function of the account is basically the same as that of the account in the normal process. Please remember the password and account number, and write down the Pixiv ID if necessary. however It should be noted that it is not clear whether such unverified email accounts will be recycled, so it is better to verify as soon as possible.

2. Main interface

The main interface is divided into recommendation, tag, discovery and dynamic. It is displayed in this order by default and cannot be modified. These classifications are described in detail below.

recommend

"Recommended" includes two boards: "Recommended Works" and "Popular Tags". "Recommended works" is divided into two parts: "ranking" and "personality recommendation". These recommendations are the content recommended by the algorithm according to your favorite collection, which means that the larger the collection, the more accurate the recommendation.

Click "View More" on the right side of the leaderboard to enter various leaderboards.

At the same time, you can click the calendar icon in the upper right corner to specify a date to search the day list.

Long press the illustration on any page to pop up a menu for some additional operations, such as downloading the illustrations on the current page in batches.

find

"Pixivision", "Cartoon" and "Novel" are arranged in the discovery. "Pixivision" is the official collection of pixiv's illustrations, and a theme will be selected every day to display the illustrations.

Cartoons and novels are one of the highlights of Shaft. After all, PivisionM only has "pixivision". Pixez Flutter focuses on illustration. While putting all these parts into the App, Shaft also supports proxy free access.

The loading speed is good, and the reading experience is not bad! I haven't used the official APP for a long time, and I don't know what the official experience is

dynamic

There is nothing to say about the dynamic. After logging in to the official account, we will push the following illustration works and some illustrators.

3. Favorites

The design of the collection folder is also a place that surprises me. It's better to classify it according to the collection method! Not only that, click Small scissors in the upper right corner , you can also index your favorite pictures according to the tag.

4. Others (sidebar)

Let's talk about the additional functions. These functions are placed under the "Other" section of the sidebar.

Search source with pictures

Searching for sources with pictures, as the name implies, is to search for image sources with existing images. It's just that Shaft's image search may not be finished, and there is no separate page. And the moment you press Search, you will jump back to the home page and wait for uploading and waiting SauceNao Return to the search results and click in manually. Overall, the experience was not very good

Gallery (removed)

The gallery may be a randomly recommended high collection of pictures. No screenshots will be displayed here.

newest

The latest is a list of real-time updated illustrations, comics, novels. It's good to wander here to find interesting pictures. It's just not very useful for people like me who don't pass the 50 tone test of Japanese...... It's enough to collect charts of ranking lists.

One word (removed)

In a word, this function, I think Pixiv It is redundant in third-party applications. It would be nice to put it out as a desktop widget, but sliding the sidebar alone, finding a word, clicking a random icon, and reading a word makes me feel strange.

FAQ

Some of the following contents are transported from the FAQ For users who cannot access GitHub.

  • Unable to open login/registration page

Please use an agent during the login process. Please refer to the instructions of each software/network service provider for specific methods; If you can connect directly after login, you no longer need a proxy.

Open direct connection in the sidebar Settings ->Network. The "OFF" status is the proxy mode, that is, the user uses his own proxy software to access, otherwise, it is the direct connection mode.

If the network status is poor, you can enable "Use PixivCat Agent" in the settings to speed up image loading, or turn off "Original Image Loading".

  • Unable to perform reCAPTCHA certification (Google robot verification)

    When using an agent, it needs verification frequently, or prompts "Try again later". Please try to replace the currently used agent.

  • The picture cannot be viewed after the direct connection is enabled

After confirming that the direct connection has been enabled in the settings, close the agent, try to completely close (that is, kill the Shaft background) and restart the application. If not, try to open "Use PixivCat Agent" again; Note that the network provider is China Mobile 、 Radio and television 、 the Great Wall Etc. or at Campus network The direct connection effect cannot be guaranteed.

  • About R18

Shaft displays the ranking list in R18 mode by default. There is no additional switch for this ranking.

But you need to go to the official website to modify your personal information (you need an agent, Portal ）, the picture can only be seen after the browsing restriction is enabled.

The specific process is as follows:

  1. Confirm that the account can log in normally in the browser and proxy mode Pixiv
  2. Confirm on the " Profile settings ", the date of birth is more than 18 years ago (i.e. adult)
  3. Confirm on the " User settings "," Display R-18 works "has been enabled
  4. Confirm that in the Shaft setting, the general ->default filtering R18 content is off, and filtering R18tag is not turned on

In addition, Shaft kindly provides an "R page" for LSP. As long as you open this item in the settings, the R18 leaderboard will be displayed separately on this page. However, in order to avoid social death, it is recommended to open "Download R18 works to another directory" at the same time.

  • About Comments

Since Shaft supports comments directly in the application, if you have the habit of browsing the comment area, you can turn on "Filter Junk Comments" in the settings.

Overall, the experience was good. Shaft is the most comfortable animation in the third-party app I have used. Picture loading, refreshing and downloading history are all equipped with comfortable animation. The picture detail page is also equipped with Gaussian blur effect. You can only experience it by yourself here. The video of decals is too troublesome

Apart from the fact that it is difficult to use maps, everything else is very satisfactory. It can also be seen that the author has made great efforts in appearance and animation, and paid enough attention to Shaft. This good application should be known to more people. Although the number of visitors to the small broken station is not much, it's just luck~

If you have other skills of using Shaft, please leave a message!

Finally, see you next year (◍ ᴗ ◍) ✧ *.
