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!

    You’d be surprised how fast Mlem is coming along.

    But for now just open the home page of your instance in Safari, hit “share” then “add to Home Screen” works okay

      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.

            Maybe not…there is no place for me to see subbed communities, nor to search within the app. Until the development gets a little further, I’m just sticking with a pinned web app.

        Oh I don’t think it’s quite ready for everyday use, it works okay for a bit of scrolling. But the dev is updating it pretty often and wants to get everything working (at least the basics) by the end of the month
