Hey all! Just wanted to shout out the app we are working on for Lemmy on iOS. We love Apollo and took lots of inspiration from it, but also have a lot of our own twists on the experience (Federation has it's own twists on top of a single website!).
We are actively pushing updates a few times a week right now and building up a solid foundation if "1.0" features to submit to the app store in the coming weeks/months.
Personally it's be a great excuse to learn Swift, SwiftUI and iOS development in general. What a blast!
Sign up for the Test Flight today before it fills up!
Wefwef is the closest thing to Apollo I’ve experienced so far https://wefwef.app/settings/install
Yup, this is Apollo carbon copy alright. And I LOVE IT. I was honestly worries since my experience with webapps was less than stellar for a while, they're trash at best. But this is surprisingly fluid and feels close to a native app. I've both Mlem app and this, and so far this has HEAPS more features backed in and the only advantage Mlem has over it is that it is an app.
I’m trying a few apps, as well as MIam, but the one thing I miss from all of them is the Apollo condensed mode, a la old Reddit, but smarter. I think the first that scratches that itch will keep me as a customer.
I’d also recommend giving Memmy a try:
I have no idea what to do to get that app
First you need to download the TestFlight app from the App Store if you don’t already have it. Then, on the GitHub page, click the link that says “click here and join the group”. After that you will be able to install the app from TestFlight. Later, they will have a stable release in the App Store, and you should be able to switch over to that then, if you like.
Posting from memmy right now and it’s pretty damn good. Even got some good themes.
It’s actually a very solid app. Haven’t had any issues with it. Obviously it’s missing some things, but the stuff already there is working.
I am wondering if you are going to streamline the signup process like they do on the official Mastodon app?
I think one of the things missing is search functionality.
I love you guys this app makes the experience so much better
Are you logging in with your username and not your email?
slemmy has a lot of issues but it is looking good.
Still using memmy which has the best functionality and less issues so far, but it definitely can improve on its ui design and borrow a thing or two from lemmy
I’m liking the app so far!
None of the “Lemmy” apps will work with kbin, at least for now. Kbin does not have apis available for devs yet.
The only kbin app I’m aware of is Artemis, which is in closed beta, is doing some form of scraping instead of using apis.
You are most likely logging in with your email instead of your username. Had the same thing happen to me.
For anybody curious, here is a Memmy issue about it https://github.com/gkasdorf/memmy/issues/168
Different app, same root cause.
