FAQ

When will insert feature here be implemented?
- Check our issue board--if there isn't an issue open for the feature you want, feel free to open an issue or make post! Just remember that devs are people too--we're doing this for free in our spare time, and building a quality app takes a lot of patient work.
Is Mlem available for Android?
- No. Mlem is written using SwiftUI, which is not currently supported on Android. If such support becomes available, we will look into bringing Mlem to our Android friends.
How do I join the beta?
- We are currently testing our new 2.0 codebase on TestFlight. We have two beta groups: a weekly group that receives the current state of our development branch every week, and a stable group that receives a curated pre-release build at the end of each development cycle.
- Join the weekly beta
- Join the stable beta
How do I join the dev team?
- Head over to our recruitment channel, or go straight to our GitHub and read CONTRIBUTING.md to get started.

Thanks for the great app!

I’m finding the navigation a bit harder than I’m used to from Reddit and wondering if we could get a couple features added (possibly as options if they’re not universally valuable.)

A list of joined communities to quickly go to them
An indication of the server a community is on (I’m sometimes in multiple communities with the same name on different servers.)

If these features already exist could someone please point out how to use them? If these seem like reasonable things to add but you don’t have time and are open to PRs I may try adding them but I’m a Swift noob and haven’t used it for years. 😅

Thanks again!

I know Mlem isn’t 1.0 yet, but here are a few things I’ve noticed

Subscriptions: I did all my subscriptions from a browser. If there’s a list of communities in Mlem, I didn’t see it, and it would help.
Tablet layout: I tried the app on my iPad, and it’s iPhone form factor.If I have the choice between a tablet and a phone for this kind of community, I think a tablet fits the content better
Home page: my home page starts on my accounts. I’d rather start on “all communities” until there is enough content to swap to subscriptions.
