Does this app rely on ios 16 or does it work with 15 or lower as well? I'm really interested if I could test this on my 7 Plus, although I use an Android primarily

[โ€“] gkd 10 points 1 year ago (4 children)

I will be targeting iOS 15. Also, I'm preparing an Android build now. I wasn't originally going to target Android at all, but I may as well since it's all just one codebase with minor modifications for either OS.

How are you targeting both iOS and Android with minor changes, considering the different languages and operating system APIs and environments? Something like React Native?

Not a mobile developer, but still a developer, so I'm quite interested...

[โ€“] gkd 6 points 1 year ago

Yea, using React Native. Generally you can do 80-90% of things all with the same code. Flutter and .NET MAUI are other options as well.

thank you!! I have an iPhone SE (2016) and Mlem only targeting iOS 16+ above means no app for me โ€“ย I appreciate you supporting those of us on older devices.

[โ€“] gkd 2 points 1 year ago

No problem! There isn't anything majorly different between the two API wise for something like this anyway.

[โ€“] ndr 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

So I guess it's not a native app?
