App store version is up.

If you are on Lemmy.world, you need to update your JWT token. Sorry, this was not intuitive and there is no proper error message. This is my fault and we seriously just never got around to this.

Please go to "Manage Accounts" and then tap your Lemmy.world account. Hit "Edit Account", enter your password, then hit save. You should be back up and running.

What's with the Memmy release notes on the App Store? I think you meant to say, "Various bug fixes and improvements" 😜

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Noooooooo, more details is good!

I’m on lemmy world and I’ve had to re-save my credentials 3 times today. I’m ok with that, but curious if I should expect this to keep happening, or if I should report this somewhere.

[–] [email protected] 32 points 1 year ago (1 children)

This has nothing to do with Memmy, but was a result of them invalidating JWTs because of the incdient that happened last night. Regardless, I will make it more intuitive now and just re-authenticate you.

[–] RustedSwitch 8 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I understand it wasn’t a Memmy thing - I’m wondering if they’ve invalidated the JWTs every few hours today?

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oh I have no idea. I've only just sat down at the computer as I've been out all morning. Last I saw last night when I went to bed was that they had invalidated them and that was that. Whatever happened afterward I don't know about. I wonder why that's happening?

[–] RustedSwitch 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

If I close out of the app and restart, I am forced to re-save credentials. This may be a them thing, but it’s a thing.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Oh jeez, now that's odd. I wonder if they just are not actually getting saved in the app...that sounds like a more of us issue than them to be fair. Let me look.

[–] HKPiax 9 points 1 year ago

Fyi: it’s the same for me. Every time the app is closed, when I reopen it I need to do the “edit account” trick to be officially logged in. In “profile” it shows my username, but in “traverse” it tells me I’m not subscribed to any community, and if I try to comment it tells me I need to log in.

Hopefully this info is useful.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The solution is to delete one's account from Memmy then re-add it, but for that people need another account saved within the app (otherwise they don't have the option to delete the first one.)

Just saying in case it can help you narrow down the problem.

[–] Carnelian 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You can also re-add your own existing account twice! No need to make a second one.

Awkward fix but a fix nonetheless, mine has been behaving fine all day

[–] MarsAgainstVenus 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I added my account a second time and deleted the first one but it deleted both, lol.

But this seems to have fixed the issue! Thanks @[email protected], @[email protected], and @[email protected]!

Same here. The fix only seems to last a few minutes before everything breaks and I need to re-save my credentials all over again.

[–] reddig33 7 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Yep. Same here. Seems to be working better now. 🤞Not sure if they fixed the server, or if the updated client is working around it.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Good work! Things are feeling very snappy and smooth. If the following items can be implemented, I think Memmy will be my default Lemmy app!

  1. Push notifications

  2. Custom swipe actions

  3. Direct messages

  4. Subscriber count on communities search

I’m sure all these have been requested already though so I’m just waiting patiently for now :)

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 year ago (1 children)

We already have push notifications :)

The other things are all on the todo list.

[–] hawt 7 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (4 children)

Just a heads up, I get stuck with this little loading wheel until I force quit the app when I try to enable notifications.

Awww I really liked the old app icon. Can we get a retro option? :D

Thanks for the update though, loving it so far!

Thanks for this post!

I am really enjoying the update so far.

I have been having an issue where when I go to traverse, none of my subreddits are listed, and the subscribed feed is filled with random groups I’m not subscribed to.

Updating the JWT token like you recommend fixes it, but FWIW, I have had to do it more than once since the update.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Hey can you tell me: If you force quit the app now, and open it back up. Do you have to sign in again?

[–] hawt 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Yeah it looks like I needed to sign in again for my subscriptions to appear after force quitting

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Cool. I see the issue. Thanks.

Let me see why you had to do it more than once. Really weird.

[–] hawt 3 points 1 year ago

Looks like you might have figured it out below in your discussion with RustedSwitch! Thanks for the quick response.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Anyone else still getting an error when downvoting?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

You have to re-login

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

Would it be possible to add the original app icon back in as an option?

[–] CthuluVoIP 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Should those of us in TestFlight keep using that version or should we start migrating to the app store app, @[email protected]? I'm not sure how long having us there continues to benefit the team with continued development.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

My understanding is that the test flight will always be available to test out updates prior to release. I believe right now both versions are the same.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Yessss, I can finally load all the other comments when viewing my own comments!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Content -> default sort will not update to “new” when I select “new” for some reason.

Nearly all my preferences reset with the update.

[–] thorbot 3 points 1 year ago

I just went into setting and tapped edit and saved my info and now I can upvote stuff again. Then I saw this post! Haha

[–] alex_villa 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I think I found a bug. If you force close Memmy you have to re-enter your password on your account to see saved posts and post comments. I’ve been able to consistently reproduce the behavior.

Since the update I’m seeing NSFW posts even though I have to toggle set to “don’t show” the “blur” toggle seems to be working at least.

The bug to set NEW as the default sort option for posts in the config menu is still alive

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Updating account doesn’t fix anything. Unable to post, comment, upvote or downvote. Says “Not logged in” despite being able to see my inbox and all subscribed communities.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Have you tried a reinstall? We have fixed these issues in the upcoming build but a reinstall should fix it for now.

I can’t seem to fix my account login. I retype my password, but it then complains about the username - but I can’t edit that and I’m not sure how to remove the account.

Any suggestions?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

The easiest way is a reinstall (I literally just added the logout button now but won't be on the App Store for about a day).

Else, you can add the account again in settings, then delete it. It will delete both accounts and you can sign in.
