Hi all, looking for an iOS app I can use for Lemmy.world. Mlem is absolutely not the answer, at least not anytime in the near future. Thanks for the help! Any navigation tips for mobile browsing would be much appreciated as well!

    Agreed! It’s far from being Apollo just yet, but already it’s a fairly good experience.

      I’m also posting this from Mlem. What works works pretty well, but it is obviously still in beta for a reason, and the biggest reason is that it is missing some major things that make ray to day use very difficult. It is missing ability to see your subscribed communities unless you favorited them. It is missing the ability to search for communities, and to see anything you’ve already posted (your profile) or if you have a notification or reply. All of those core features need to be added pretty quickly.

      Jerboa on Android is not perfect either but it is much further along in development at this stage.

        Are we not using the same app? Mlem shows your subbed communities by default, and you can search for communities.

          What build are you on (Shown in TestFlight)? I don’t see a search bar anywhere on 0.0.6 (22)

              Thanks! Turns out I‘m just blind. I thought it was only a drop-down menu. That fixes my biggest gripe with Mlem right there.

          Maybe not…there is no place for me to see subbed communities, nor to search within the app. I’m using version 0.0.6, which appears to be the latest in TestFlight. Until the development gets a little further, I’m just sticking with a pinned web app.

          For the record, I’m not saying that it won’t show posts from your subbed communities, but that you can’t find a list of your subbed communities (unless you’ve specifically favorited them), within the app, so you can go directly to that community.
