Of course! The PWA is self-hostable, hackable, and receives updates quicker. However, it doesn't have access to certain native APIs that the native app takes advantage of.
Can I continue to use the Test Flight beta?
Yes, but I recommend switching to the App Store release if you aren't actively involved in testing. It's a more stable release :)
I am so in love with this. What an amazing gift this app is in a world of corporations and data harvesting. If ever there’s a project that deserves our huge support, it’s this one.
Yep it's a Safari (and its webview) bug. This is a quirk that will haunt this app and I don't think there's much that can be done from developer's side other than porting this app to a native library.
Hi @aeharding , is there a list with the differences (in place, not planned) between the native app and the PWA?
I’m not interested in the scroll to top by tapping on the top, kind of things, neither haptic feedback. What I was really looking forward is push notifications (which can be implemented in PWAs, since I’m using one in Safari which supports this 😎) and badges.
Either way, I can download it for the review purpose…
Keep up with the good work.
Congratulations for all your hard work. This webapp/app makes using Lemmy so much better. And your constant updates have been giving me upgrade dopamine hits. Thank you!
Posting from the app, looking great! Thank you, @aeharding, you’re doing amazing work here. Migrating to Lemmy from the other place has been such a breeze with this app to smooth the way.
Looks good to me. What I still miss from Apollo is a swipe right to get „back“ to a post I just swiped left from. Something like the browser forward button.
I’m just a layman in terms of app development, but have a basic understanding of the monumental amount of work that has gone into this app, so I would like to congratulate everyone, or singular person, who has made my viewing habits as streamlined as they are.
I look forward to your success, and wish you all the praise, financial, emotional and learning support you could wish for.
This is odd. I can upvote, scroll, sort, login … all of it with Memmy. None of that works the first time with Voyager. I keep getting errors saying it can’t login, can’t vote and so on. I have to try it twice for it to work.
I was finally able to sign in with Lemmy.world account. Will look forward to progress with app and will happily donate once moderator tools are added. Hopefully community banner display can also be incorporated into the app. 🙏🏻 Kudos for work so far!
Woah boi do I feel at home ! It looks so much like Apollo, I love it ! It’s so nice, everything is where it should be. I’m loving it so far, thank you so much
Any chance you'll include the option to select which browser to use as the default rendered? Sync let's me choose that currently, and it's one of my main reasons for using that over Voyager, because I much prefer the Voyager UI (and ad-free experience).
Would it be possible to change accounts while staying on a post? In case I browse with one account and want to comment from a different one?
Or some setting to autoswitch accounts when I open a post from a different instance which I also have an account on?
😁
Rather because it’s sometimes more useful to comment with a „local“ account instead of the standard one I browse with. It’s a little complicated with the whole federated approach.
Not exactly glad to hear it, but relieved that it isn't a device issue. All the people talking about how fluid it is....what? It's a good app but it's not fluid at ALL, heck even Jerboa is like 10x more fluid for me.
Cannot report a bug, iPad store version. Was asked which instance I'm on with login and password, so 100% fail. Basically this app does not know what federation is. Sad, it was a great app.
Ahh I think they have just clicked the drop down for the “connected to instance” when using anonymous instance rather than the login button in top right
