Download the latest Mlem for Lemmy 0.1.0(14) TestFlight beta for iOS 16+ (new signup required!)

After a change in leadership and another massive reorganization, we've brought you another INCREDIBLY MASSIVE update full of new features and improvements to Mlem that we just know you're going to love! Hooray!

NEW ADDITIONS

  • Swipe-to-vote
  • Community list and search View between accounts page and Feed Tab
  • Added communities list to the feed tab to browse your favorites and subscribed communities
  • Post/comment saving
  • Colored thread indicators
  • Updated NSFW tag/blur
  • Revamped usernames to show OP, Moderators, bots, etc.
  • Community image headers
  • Beautiful, new Community sidebars
  • Much-improved functionality with iOS's Accessibility tools Guided Access, VoiceOver, and Screen Reader

BUG FIXES

  • LemmyAPI 0.18.0 compatibility

KNOWN ISSUES

  • Comment reply button is temporarily missing. Swipe left to reply for now, and we'll get the button back in the next build!
  • Community List/Search view may not show remote instances until widespread adoption of LemmyAPI v0.18.0 which just released. Be patient!
  • Swipe voting on posts have a slight delay to feedback due to server delay
  • Feed sort setting may not persist after updates

MORE TO COME

  • Full a11y compliance which should work perfectly with iOS's Accessibility functionality like Guided Access and Screen Reader coming. Each build comes with increased functionality!
  • New Profile Tab
  • Messages Tab
  • New & improved fullscreen image viewer
  • Inbox notifications
  • Custom app icons

Again, please keep in mind that this is an early beta. As such, it's not feature-complete and there will be bugs and unexpected behavior. Enjoy testing, and we look forward to hearing your bug reports via TestFlight and your feedback! You can comment here or come chat with us in The Mlem Space on Matrix.

We'd like to dedicate this release to David, for creating the foundation without which we could have built nothing.

And to Christian Selig, for being the trailblazer and guiding light to every iOS developer, granting every one of us the vision to build great things our users will love and remember forever.

Enjoy!

The Mlem Team

EDIT: ok, there's some confusion with users of the old beta-- DELETE IT! It no longer works, and we had to distribute a new beta. After you delete the old beta, you can sign up for the new TestFlight beta by tapping/clicking the link above! The group is limited in capacity, so get it quickly!

This update is AWESOME! Great job team!

glad you love it!

Wonderful.

I hope that sort top by hour, 6 hours, 12 hours is implemented too. Such a helpful addition when trying to find new content to engage.

Thanks for everything you guys do.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

The new sort options are coming in the next update!

I still have the app on my phone but I don’t see Mlem listed in TestFlight anymore. Were testers removed?

Thank you. It looks like a lot of progress has been made.

It’s a real shame that David is no longer part of the project.

Absolutely fantastic app, do you have a donation link?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Wow, this release is slick! I think the only real issue I run into is link handling, and I understand that is coming. Great job!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Awesome job. Feels already great!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I can’t sign in to the lemmynsfw.com instance with this build, but I was able to with the obsolete build.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

It works now.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Every update this app gets closer to the style and functionality of Apollo, and every update I am more pleased. Keep up the good work!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Looking good. Pls add ipad support to your roadmap

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

oh, it's on there!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I’m in—looks good on my phone

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Hey, this new version looks awesome! Y’all are doing great. I just noticed one issue; when I first opened up the app and saw the list of communities I’m subscribed to, it didn’t nearly show all of them. Maybe only 12 of them appear… is this a known bug?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Reread the post, I think it addresses the issue. Sorry for my blindness. :')

[–] DrFluffyNips 1 points 1 year ago

Those Apollo vibes are hitting hard the more and more this gets updated! Absolutely loving it!

My TestFlight: Beta not found. A problem occurred with the public address url. Contact the developer

I have Mlem installed for almost 1 month and it works, I have also received some updates. Today clicking on the TestFlight link I got this response is the app is not there.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Ok solved, probably a new beta was released and the old one was removed from Testflight. I installed from the discussion link and the app was found and installed the new version. I think I can delete the old one

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

this. we had to migrate to a new App Store Connect account, so the old beta and TestFlight link no longer work. glad you've got everything working!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Have you changed the system requirements. I am running iOS 15.7.7 which is the latest supported on my device and TestFlight says the app requires an update. Though it is unclear what requires updating.

Perhaps it is just a switch in XCode that was configured differently than before?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Mlem requires iOS 16+

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Did mlem change the tesflight link? I now have 2 mlem app on my phone?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

You can go ahead and delete the old one. That testing round has been discontinued.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 1 year ago

will there be support for iOS15?
