You’re missing Voyager and Lemmios.

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

Yup added them now

Memmy is currently my daily driver but I’m hoping a native swift app eventually takes that role.

Lemmios is pretty good for such early days.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 years ago

I think Mlem is swift

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

Memmy is really good 👍

Avelon is a great app. It’s my go to for Lemmy.

I got to ask, is the Bean app named after the big Bean memes that occurred to Lemmy?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago

One of the custom icons is a tin of Heinz so I would assume so!

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

Bean is my go to at the moment, although I do have others installed. Need to do a proper comparison at some stage.

Bean just “feels” good.

I wish I could use it, but one thing that stops me using it is that it doesn't show the community instance. For example, if I'm in the Technology community, am I in [email protected] or [email protected]?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

You know what? That limitation hadn’t even occurred to me. I’ll have to look into whether it’s being addressed. Pretty important.

Edit: which apps do then? Just checked a few others and they don’t. Is it just a web thing?

Edit 2: ~~so Avalon does~~(only if you tap into the community) but I’m less keen on it’s design and it doesn’t run natively on an iPad. I guess I’ll just have to hope it becomes considered an essential.

Memmy is my go to app and it shows the instance:

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

How odd; my Memmy doesn’t. It has a toggle for instance on username but not community.

This needs further investigation.

[–] Mereo 2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I suggest that you uninstall it and install it again. I resolved a lot of issues that way.

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

Good call, I’ll give it a whirl.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

~~Well, I don’t understand it. I’ve re-downloaded the latest TestFlight and it’s just not there. ~~

It is, I’m an idiot!

You’re a lifesaver.

Haven't tested all of these, but many do not work on ios 12. Thunder is my current favorite that does. Old iPad gang gang. Edit : only liftoff also works, but crashes. Didn't try the github links, only test flight and app store.

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

Yeah that's a tough one. For Mlem we want to use SwiftUI which largely requires iOS 16+

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

Olympus never lets me install it just says update your device to install even though i have the latest ios. They must not allow older iPhones for some reason. All the others work

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

It's not just you. I just tried to download it and it said the same thing. I'm on an ipad mini 6 with ipadOS 16.6

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

Thanks! I added another one to the collection upon seeing this!

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

Do you know which app is UIKit and already have Testflight? What is this obsession with SwiftUI

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Beyond is upcoming, already on early access for android but it still has some missing features and bugs to exterminate.

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

I also like to use android apps on iOS.

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

I meant that an iOS version is upcoming and the Android version is in early access, I hope you didn't think I honestly believed you can install Android apps on iOS.

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

I think I commented that 41 days ago.
