A threadiverse app (aka Kmoon)
Starting to test Android builds before we start our incremental rollout (private beta). We’re going to onboard an Android dev to make sure we get an authentic experience. On top of user feedback. So for sure not the final form! Still, feels good to use already!
Thank you so much, as an Android user I would love to have an app that is designed with Apollo in mind.
It's looking good!
Very excited to try it out! I applied for the beta.
I certainly hope that you're going to charge for this app. That one screenshot looks better than almost every other Android client that exists, and I think I've tried them all at this point.
Gorgeous. Fingers crossed for dark mode eventually!
Edit: apparently there is already! Hooray!
Dark mode exists! I believe it is just a setting that can be turned on/off.
No dark mode?
Not a Dev on the app, but other screenshots that have been shared have shown a dark mode so it’s definitely included.
Aaahhh!!! That's kinda embarrassing to see my name show up on a screenshot!
Also that's really cool! Will there be avatar implementation?
You are basically famous now. Will you sign an autograph for me?
Yes but you will have to accept paw prints
For comments, my biggest ask is to have toggles/buttons to jump to the next top level comment. Will that be in the initial build?
Either that or collapsible comments
collapsible comment trees already work!
Aw yes, some Android love finally ❤️ keep up the great work!
Aren't the buttons a little too big, even by mobile app standards?
design still WIP/rough — we’re rushing to get the core functionality implemented! tho agreed IMO the button and proportions can def be adjusted
So much this.
All that vertical space could be replaced by a single, inline "menu button" that opens a contextmenu in overlay with all the possible actions (Reply, Share, ...).
But it will be for sure available in a future release ;)
Love the boost icon, as a boost for reddit enjoyer!
We were just talking about the contents of the image after posting. We just wanted to show off the features of how a link appears within a post and didn't think about the contents of the screenshot 😅
Ahh I see, task failed successfully?! Looks great otherwise.
I didn't realise it was being developed for Android as well! That's great news. It's looking good so far! Thanks for the hard work!
The post buttons are comedically large, but otherwise this looks clean! Any dark mode screenshots?
Also, what does the rocket button do?
You can see dark mode screenshots in the pinned post on Hariette's Mastodon!
The rocket button is for boosting.
Can there be an option for the reply threads be folded by default?
I feel like folded replies are the default on most threaded forums, but I realize most Artemis users will be Reddit refugees and the default is for reply threads to be expanded.
Thanks!
I would greatly not prefer that. Only showing top level comments means that no one would get their bad takes reined in automatically. You'd have to make the effort to see whether the replies are with or against the comment.
Would the upvote/downvote numbers be an indicator?
Anyway, I would like to have the option in the app settings to fold threads, but like I said before, most reddit refugees are going to be used to expanded threads -- so I think that should be the default setting.
Options are always good -- there's no need to activate it if you don't like it. Presumably the default for such a setting would be off.
Looks great, thank you for doing this!
Feels wrong with iOS design language on Android instead of material design - looks good nonetheless
I was just commenting about that! We’re getting Android peeps to make sure that uncanny feeling is not there on v1.
Can't wait for the beta to start!
Looks amazing, can't wait to use it on my pixel.
Looks clean!
Hype!
Looks very nice. Very familiar.
Looks like its coming along great!
Looks grand. I attempted to use the upper left arrow as navigation and grew curious to why it failed to work.
This is good to know, I had heard that this was the app to watch, but also that is was only on ios. I'll keep an eye on this!
That's one hell of a post to pick to feature in your promo!

I like apollo, but... this feels like a weird amalgamation of iOS. Could you consider maybe using Material?
It's already looking very nice!
