In case anyone wanted the non-beta or couldn’t get in because TestFlight was full, this just popped in about an hour ago.

Congratulations to the dev team!

Hey all. Replying from .world since...well you guys know.

Anyway, thank you for all your support over the past weeks. It's helped us get to this point.

A word of caution: The build that was released is slightly outdated and there are a few issues that have already been addressed in that build. Unfortunately because you can't replace the build in review, we were not able to update it as we went through this nearly week-long back and forth with Apple. It required an appeal to get us onto the store.

With that said, I'll be releasing the final version of 0.0.2 tonight to TestFlight, and will begin build versioning starting at 0.1.0, which will be the next release on the store. I'll try and have something submitted to them tonight and hopefully it will be reviewed and released within a day or so.

Cheers!

You’re awesome, and I hope you sleep at some point, haha.

[–] _WC@lemmy.world 15 points 2 years ago

Replying from Memmy beta, love it, thanks for all your hard work!

[–] humanfundinc@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

Just downloaded and wrote a nice review. Really appreciate the effort it must have taken to get this live so fast. App seems awesome so far!!!

[–] tryagain@lemm.ee 7 points 2 years ago

I don't even own an iOS device but I'm delighted that you and so many other devs have gone so hard at putting different apps out there.

They may not all take off, and users will likely graduate to a handful because of power laws and whatnot but that doesn't matter right now: you guys are shipping and you're giving us options. You all rock!

[–] BlueDepth9279@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

Congrats on the milestone! I’ve been using Memmy for a few weeks now and the progress has been staggering. It’s definitely my go to lemmy app.

Any say to magnify font or change a bit layout? Feels cramped on an iPhone mini

[–] gkd@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

There are some options for font size, font weight, etc. inside of the settings.

Replying with the Memmy for Lemmy iOS app. It seems to work fine.

[–] michikade@lemm.ee 44 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (2 children)

I’ve been beta testing since day one - which was only 22 days ago. It’s amazing how great this app has gotten in such a short time.

[–] TeamAssimilation 23 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I entered the TestFlight of Memmy, Mlem, Thunder and Liftoff!, and Memmy impressed me with the speed of development, stability, and feature addition. I love it.

Mlem is a close second, but it lacks QOL details that Memmy got right from the start. The other two are still at alpha level, but all of them are improving steadily.

The Fediverse, its ecosystem, and the passion developers and admins pour into it, it feels like an alternate Internet reality, but a better reality for a change.

[–] michikade@lemm.ee 13 points 2 years ago

I’ve also tried several betas and Memmy has been my personal favorite since nearly day one (first build didn’t have dark mode, haha, but like 12 hours later there was a second build with dark mode and I’ve been here ever since). And the devs are amazing.

This is an exciting time. I know the fediverse has been around for a while but it still feels like getting on the ground floor of something both brand new and also harkening back to the old internet. It’s awesome.

[–] cod@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Hey, there’s a username I recognize. Beta tester since day one for me too. I agree, the growth this app has seen is incredible

Already was using it in TestFlight, but needed to download it to rate it in the App Store.

[–] Bushwhack@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

Same. This is the way.

[–] sudo_shinespark@lemmy.world 20 points 2 years ago

This one’s been the best of the iOS clients I’ve seen with wefwef coming in distant second. Excited that it’s officially released now. Congrats to Gavin and all his hard work!

In case anyone didn’t see — the App Store version is slightly outdated from the current version in TestFlight. The dev (Gavin) posted about it a little while ago on this same thread

I’m probably going to hold off ‘til he gives the all clear on TestFlight but still exciting

[–] BravoVictor@programming.dev 15 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Oh hell yeah! I’ve been beta testing it. May grab the non-beta just to rate it like others.

Well done!

[–] michikade@lemm.ee 6 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

All credit to @gkd@lemmy.ml and the rest of the team whose Lemmy names I don’t know haha

[–] PineapplePartisan@lemmy.world 14 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Nice. I’ve been trying all the TestFlight apps and Memmy is my favorite. Going to download the official app now.

[–] PineapplePartisan@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

Woot! On official.

[–] lockedcasket@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago

Wow this is fantastic! Reminds of Apollo so much; great job devs!

[–] SharpMaxwell@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

guess im gonna stop using wefwef now

[–] 9tr6gyp3@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Is this open source?

[–] 9tr6gyp3@lemmy.world 12 points 2 years ago

I swear i can read sometimes. Yes, its open source.

https://github.com/Memmy-App/memmy

[–] michikade@lemm.ee 8 points 2 years ago

Yep. Fully open source on GitHub.

[–] corky@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

This is so freaking cool. Like many others, I’ve been testing Mlem, Memmy, Liftoff, and Thunder as well as Wefwef and honestly they are all great. I definately have gravitated to Memmy the most because of the speed of bug fixes and communication the dev has.

Just commenting to leave my appreciation for the devs.

The experience on the app so far has been working perfectly and helpful for me to enter into lemmy as a new user.

[–] Cityshrimp@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

Just downloaded it. This is awesome. Thanks for your hard work!!

I’ve only been around Lemmy for a few days — and Memmy for less obviously, but the TestFlights I’ve seen, this is the most polished and has helped me feel most at home moving from Reddit. Well done. 👏🏼

[–] KuroJ@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

Been beta testing this from the beginning. Just downloaded from the App Store to leave a review. Congrats and great job by the Memmy team!

[–] Roggie@lemmy.zip 4 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I have been using Mlem, but this post encouraged me to try out Memmy, liking it so far but I can’t figure out how to reply to comments. Can anyone help me? I’m on IOS

[–] michikade@lemm.ee 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Swipe commands. Right to left short swipe is comment.

Left to right short swipe is upvote, long swipe is downvote.

Thank you! I did not expect a lemmy app to be on the app store that fast!

[–] Jackolantern@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

Hey thanks for the update mate. Memmy is my go to app for lemmy and the changes since the first beta to the release now is staggering. Looking forward to more updates!

You rock!

[–] wavymoney@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Using Memmy for the first time on this post (too late to get in the beta) and it’s a great experience so far! I love that the markdown options are built-in like Apollo had, the UI is elegant and easy to use, and smooth!

[–] CheddarMcLemmers@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Sweet! Trying this. Anything else out on the store yet?

[–] michikade@lemm.ee 5 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Not that I’ve seen, but I know Mlem is hoping to get to MVP soon and I think they’re the next closest, everything else is still pretty early on the iOS side.

Giving it a shot now, thanks!

[–] Tandybaum@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Is it kosher to give some suggestions here? It would be really nice to have an account switcher option. I have my main account but I’d like to quick every now and again.

[–] michikade@lemm.ee 4 points 2 years ago (3 children)

I’m not a dev but there is a quick account switcher, just add in your accounts through settings and top center can switch accounts on the fly. I have 2 accounts and switch between the two when one instance is hiccuping. I know some others have a SFW and NSFW profile, haha.
