Build Submitted to Apple - 0.1 - That swipe tho 🤌
In order to get up to speed with the people that are coming here without TestFlight, I've submitted a build to Apple with all of the current features and fixes.
I'd anticipate this to take about 24 hours, but it's possible it will be reviewed today. Apple is weird. I've had things get approved in like 8 hours on Saturdays before, so there's a chance it will happen today. I'll update you all when that happens.
Improvements and additions:
- New icon and options for changing icon color
- New and improved swipe animation (by the way, this is better than the last update wink)
- Improvements to image viewer (double tap works now too)
- Performance enhancments throughout the app
- Hide read posts
- Images in comments
- Collapsible posts
- Default comment sort
- All of the "Top" sort options
- Show a loading modal while downloading images
- Added a manage accounts button to accounts dropdown
- Add option for reader in webview
- Settings improvements
- Added embark theme
- Added buttons in comments for upvoting and replying
- Adjustments to splashscreen
- Username doesn't link to user profile in compact mode now
- Add option to use the default browser instead of in-app browser
Fixes:
- Fix issues with toast not changing color or disappearing
- Fix cake day showing the wrong year
- Fix issue where links with an internal IP address would ask for permission to local network
- Fix issues with account disappearing after app launch
- Read icon now uses the correct color
- Fix crash caused when pressing Matrix links
- Fix crash when searching for a community with an @ at the end
If any of these issues are bothering you now, rest assured they will be fixed for you quite soon.
I was a dumbass and uninstalled TestFlight. Now I’m getting jealous of all of the people that still get the BETAS.

Wait so TestFlight is getting cool stuff while us AppStore peasants don’t
Back to test flight I go lol. Glad I kept another test flight app otherwise it’d have been gone

Luckily, everything snapped back into place when I re-installed Testflight. These new features look SO good. We're getting to the point where this app, for browsing, is actually one-upping Apollo. Congratulations to these amazing devs. We are so lucky to have such amazing devs, making Lemmy appealing even to non-tech savvy people.

Would love to see few features:
Ability to filter/block a community directly from feed, without having to go to that community.
A keyword filter list that hides post with those words in their title.
Ability to hide posts from feed.
Keep up the great work!
1I didn’t get into the test flight. I downloaded as soon as it was available in the App Store. I’m loving it but anxiously awaiting the update to fix profile not loading. I’ve never had my profile load successfully

I’d love to see the images behave a little more like Apollo, which allowed zooming out with just a double tap (which also zoomed in, or opened the album to swipe through), but to get it away, it was just a double tap to zoom out and swipe it away.
0This is probably one of the absolute hardest things to replicate. I’m going to be working on it though for sure for the 0.2 release.
With that said, zoom out on double tap is fixed on this release. Swiping through the images in a post will be added in 0.2 as well as other improvements to the image viewer in general.
1Awesome! I’m on the TestFlight build and loving the rapid progress. I think it was still a little janky for me and after a second double tap I’m not able to swipe the image away.
Apollo had a lot of years to polish - what you’ve done in such a short period is absolutely amazing. I donated via your buy me a coffee link, but you should absolutely charge something for this app. Putting notifications behind a paywall is perfectly reasonable.
Personally I loved the one-time Ultra purchase and would occasionally just throw some cash in the tip jar on big releases.

Please give us a link in the app so we can toss you some money. Some of us want to support your hard work and don’t want to be loaded down by ads in the future.
0You can send the developer a donation here: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/gavink
1Rest assured ads is something that will never be in this. No feature lockdowns, ads, any of that.
I can’t link anything in app for payments or donations unfortunately. Eventually there might be a tip jar though. For now if you really want, there’s a buy me a coffee.
0Sent 3 cups! Enjoy!
