the subscriptions tab to become a button within the dock at the bottom. I frequently move between my subscriptions and I find it a little tucked away at the moment.

Regardless, love your work. It’s always a bit rich making requests for something that is FREE! So, again, thanks for all your hard work and feel free to disregard the above.

I’m not very familiar with the iOS guidelines but try to refer to them sometimes. Are there any glaring issues you are aware of that Memmy has, with the guidelines, or is it more a lot of small things? I imagine it’s easier to stay within guidelines while using SwiftUI/UIKit but maybe it’s not.

Take any of the Apple apps for example. They implement the frosted glass effect to give you a sense of foreground and background and it looks just super nice. I sent two feedback text to Memmy about this but this low hanging fruit hasn’t been implemented yet.

Then the size of the big headers that shrink down when you scroll down to reveal more content. Just real eye sugar!

We don’t read the test flight feedback because most of it is extremely low quality and we get a ton of it.

Regarding glassmorphism, it’s something difficult to do in React Native. (although Bean does it so i guess possible) I believe both gk and i are not big fans of it anyways. I don’t hate it in certain places but i honestly really don’t like it in Mlem for example. Maybe because of all the varied content i can see come through it on Lemmy, where as in Messages or Mail it’s more monotone.

Regarding the tab bar going away on scroll. I believe this is not an accessible design and am also unaware of it ever being recommended by Apple. Also unaware of it being used in any apple apps. Totally fine to like it, just don’t think it’s an iOS design guideline.

Appreciate the feedback, though i guess i thought we were talking more about UX design over aesthetics.

I'll chime in the other way, I detest the frosted glass effect that the user above is describing. Mlem uses this if you want to check out a reference.

I love how clean and immersive the app is current state. The foreground of the bottom bars user above (no hate, just my opinion) makes me feel like I'm on my phone and I prefer to just get lost in content

I agree, i find it pretty distracting on Lemmy in particular.
