Rules
- Keep it civil.
- This is a forum for discussion about Mlem. We welcome a degree of general chatter, but anything not related to Mlem may be removed at moderator discretion. This is not a forum for iPhone/Android debate. Posts and comments saying nothing but "iOS bad/I use Android" will be removed as off-topic.
- We welcome constructive criticism, but ask that it be both precise and polite.
FAQ
- When will insert feature here be implemented?
- Check our issue board--if there isn't an issue open for the feature you want, feel free to open an issue or make post! Just remember that devs are people too--we're doing this for free in our spare time, and building a quality app takes a lot of patient work.
- Is Mlem available for Android?
- No. Mlem is written using SwiftUI, which is not currently supported on Android. If such support becomes available, we will look into bringing Mlem to our Android friends.
- How do I join the beta?
- We are currently testing our new 2.0 codebase on TestFlight. We have two beta groups: a weekly group that receives the current state of our development branch every week, and a stable group that receives a curated pre-release build at the end of each development cycle.
- Join the weekly beta
- Join the stable beta
- How do I join the dev team?
- Head over to our recruitment channel, or go straight to our GitHub and read CONTRIBUTING.md to get started.

Np!
I should mention that I can't get the new Testflight to work either. I use the old version, the Testflight for some reason is unavailable to me. Is it perhaps because I use an older model iPhone?
Similarly, I sometimes don't see comments, eg. a post might have 5 comments but I only see 3 or none. It can't always be deleted messages either, because this issue also occurs on other apps like wefwef, but not on Thunder for some reason (for the same post).

We closed the old TestFlight, as we don’t plan to release any major updates to Mlem v1 aside from critical bug fixes. The new TestFlight is for testing the upcoming Mlem v2, and requires iOS 17 or later. Mlem v1 supported iOS 16 and above. You can read more about our reasons for dropping iOS 16 support here.

Yeah, this happens because the Lemmy API only returns a limited number of comments initially for large comment threads. It’s the client’s responsibility to request more comments when needed. On the Lemmy website UI, you have to click a “Load (x) more comments” button, and it’ll load the rest. Mlem v1 (and presumably Voyager) haven’t implemented this yet. We’re planning to add it to Mlem v2.
This issue should be fixed in the new 1.3.7 release.

Can’t even open the appearance menu. iOS 18
Was also forced to log-in again after the update. Related?
Are you using the old version? Or the new one in test flight? It changed fine for me on my iPhone using the new version. My iPad is not at hand to test though.
I use the old one, I think.
Weirdly enough I also don't see your comments except in my inbox. I have this issue with more users and comments.
From sjmarf:
Version 2.0 isn't out yet, but we've got beta versions available in the pinned post here.
we don't plan to release any more updates to the v1 version of the app unless Lemmy makes breaking changes to the API before v2 is ready.
Did try it on iPad Air M2 with 1.3.6 on iPad OS 17.7 and can confirm this.
