Rules

Keep it civil.
This is a forum for discussion about Mlem. We welcome a degree of general chatter, but anything not related to Mlem may be removed at moderator discretion. This is not a forum for iPhone/Android debate. Posts and comments saying nothing but "iOS bad/I use Android" will be removed as off-topic.
We welcome constructive criticism, but ask that it be both precise and polite.

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.

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

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!

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

[–] chase@midwest.social 3 points 1 year ago

The original dev left the project and ended that TestFlight. This is the new one.

Delete the old app and sign up for the NEW beta via the link at the top of the post! After the original app author left, we had to switch to a new account, but all new betas will come from the new account!

Ah I see. The old app wasn’t showing the text body of the post. Fetched the link from browser, thanks!
