In order to get up to speed with the people that are coming here without TestFlight, I’ve submitted a build to Apple with all of the current features and fixes.

I’d anticipate this to take about 24 hours, but it’s possible it will be reviewed today. Apple is weird. I’ve had things get approved in like 8 hours on Saturdays before, so there’s a chance it will happen today. I’ll update you all when that happens.

Improvements and additions:

  • New icon and options for changing icon color
  • New and improved swipe animation (by the way, this is better than the last update wink)
  • Improvements to image viewer (double tap works now too)
  • Performance enhancments throughout the app
  • Hide read posts
  • Images in comments
  • Collapsible posts
  • Default comment sort
  • All of the “Top” sort options
  • Show a loading modal while downloading images
  • Added a manage accounts button to accounts dropdown
  • Add option for reader in webview
  • Settings improvements
  • Added embark theme
  • Added buttons in comments for upvoting and replying
  • Adjustments to splashscreen
  • Username doesn’t link to user profile in compact mode now
  • Add option to use the default browser instead of in-app browser

Fixes:

  • Fix issues with toast not changing color or disappearing
  • Fix cake day showing the wrong year
  • Fix issue where links with an internal IP address would ask for permission to local network
  • Fix issues with account disappearing after app launch
  • Read icon now uses the correct color
  • Fix crash caused when pressing Matrix links
  • Fix crash when searching for a community with an @ at the end

If any of these issues are bothering you now, rest assured they will be fixed for you quite soon.

    Yea I think that’s probably the only thing I’d consider putting behind a paywall just because of the fees that come with that for me. The one thing I never agreed with Apollo on was keeping posting behind a subscription.

    For what it’s worth, I think it’s janky too. I just have not had time to focus on that, so I’m fiddling with it a bit at a time. I think once this version hits the store, we can slow down a bit and iron out a super solid 0.2. Keep the TestFlight going with a build every day or two, but with more new features coming instead of just bug fixes (things are getting ironed out finally)

    A few of the remaining crashes we had should be fixed here soon too. A couple of them were actually issues with Expo rather than Memmy, but the team over there was super responsive and fixes have already been merged in. Those should be ready to be published by them here next week Id imagine
