Download the TestFlight beta for iOS 16+
This update is big, and there’s more coming later! This update includes these additions
- New icon by the amazing clay! Stay tuned for more icons, including Pride! In the future, you will be able to choose between lots of icons, and submit your own
And these fixes:
- A whole bunch of crashes related to loading communities
- Some posts showing multiple times in the feed
- (Hopefully) accounts being deleted between app launches. If this still happens, please either tag me here or add your comment to this issue: https://github.com/buresdv/Mlem/issues/74
- A few issues logging in, namely when the server address included a capital letter, “http://”, “https://” and others
Enjoy testing, and we look forward to hearing your feedback! You can comment here or come chat with us in our recruitment channel on Matrix.
Cheers!

The app crashes a lot. Other than that long term I’d like to see swipe gestures for things like upvoting, like Apollo
This is a very good beta. Excited to see what you do with it. I was a premium Apollo user, unsure if Christian has any interest in a federated app but if so I think y’all would make a great team. Regardless this feels like the spiritual successor to Apollo I hoped for.
I can help with Swift, coding, backend in general. I am going to dive in and see how I can help. Feel free to dm me.
Glad to hear you want to contribute! Hop on over to our Matrix space and hit our team. We’d love to have a chat!
This is a great start to the App, but it still feels quite unfinished.
- Currently, I can’t select which community I want to view in my feed. Only “All” and “Subscribed”. Unless there is something I’m missing…
Please allow a feature to be able to sort feed by specific communities.
In the future, I’d love to have “custom feeds” available that can be a checkbox of selected communities. For example, if half of my time is spent on communities for /c/Memes, /c/asklemmy and /c/gaming - I could select “Custom 1”, label it as “Pin’s Favorites” and have it display only those.
-
As well, I cannot search for communities that I am not a part of. I can only do that with the Desktop version at this moment.
-
Please, please, please allow users to customize text, spacing & font options under Appearance. This will be extremely helpful with accessibility. I have vision impaired friends that would find the current sizing a little difficult. As well, for my own preferences - the standard font size is a little too large.
-
The Accounts page should not be the parent page. It should be default login, any modifications should be through settings.
-
Gestures for up & downvoting (like in Apollo or Narwhal) would be appreciated. Of course - this should be an option a user turns on or off in the settings.
-
The current app icon is great! But in the spirit of things - it would be nice to be able to customize that as well.
This is a great start to the App, but it still feels quite unfinished.
well, it is an early beta, and, as such, is not yet feature-complete. But our team is working very hard to bring more features and fixes with every update (including a redesigned interface), and to bring 1.0 but the end of the month.
Join us on our Matrix space to join the conversation, and feel free to submit suggestions to our Issue page on GitHub (links above)
I know nothing about swift, never developed an IOS app, so I’ll fork my own as I have wanted to learn about app development for some time now but was looking for reason / idea. Ill try to enhance, eventually I’ll contribute to the main project in a meaningful way.
Thanks! I’ve never used a Matrix space before - looks similar to Discord.
I’m really looking forward to seeing what you will do with the App in the coming weeks. While I’m not a developer - I’d be delighted to beta-test, and give constructive feedback about how the app looks & feels from the user perspective.
Once things are up and running, this is something I’d love to make a donation for.
As a graphic designer I’d love to make a variant app logo, is there a process for submitting it or just pop it into the community?
not yet, but it’s something we’ll be implementing in a future release, so stay tuned!
Reddit killed my Apollo… I killed my Reddit… I got reincarnated as a lemmy… Thank You!
@BrooklynMan@lemmy.ml i can’t login, it says “logged in to lemmy.ml as -email-” and a second later “colud not connect to lemmy.ml”. I can log fine on safari…
Getting the same for infosec.pub
Will there be an iPadOS version available at some time? iOS version via TestFlight is already installed, looks good. Happy to have a Lemmy app for iOS now 👍🏼👏🏼
Should all instances of duplicated posts be gone? I’m still seeing this occasionally on my “All” feed (I’ve confirmed they are from the same server).
ideally, they should bee, bu if you’re still seeing them, please submit a bug report! Thanks!
Any eta on opening images in-app and allowing download? Another thing i’ve seen is long posts show almost the entire text on the home page, instead of a like a paragraph, it shows the entire 7-8 paragraphs and takes up the entire screen at once. Would be nice to have that collapsed until you actually view the post.
Love the app and constant updates. Really appreciate the hard work you are putting in to provide the community with a quality app. Experiencing more random crashes in this version however. 13 Pro Max with latest iOS. Seem to happen completely randomly, sometimes scrolling through posts, or comments, or when submitting a comment.
Great work! Looking forward to browse my own/all communities (and maybe instances?)
When I’m clicking on Messages it only shows my account name and some number. Is this still in development?
Edit: I’m also not able to edit my comment inside the app
This app has really a Apollo feeling :)
Nice! As far as I can tell there’s no way to browse communities in the app yet, right?
Please add the ability to automatically choose a default account to log into upon app open 🥹
