(IOS) Feature request: Scroll to top by tapping the top of the screen (self.wefwef)

Quite surprised this doesn’t work by default as wefwef is a web app, but it would be great if tapping at the top of the screen would automatically take you back to the top of the list currently being displayed.

I didn’t realise how often I used that feature in Apollo until I started using wefwef (which feels like home from home, except when it doesn’t 😂). Apollo had the added bonus of tapping again to take you back to where you were in the list before you tapped to go to the top!

Not a priority, but definitely a nice to have in my book.

One of the greatest Apollo features was that if you tapped the top again it would take you back to where you were.

Yeah I loved that

If it helps I find that tapping the “posts” button in the bottom left will take me back to the top… not great but means I don’t have to swipe for ages to get back.

This is on the feature requests so hopefully soon

Oh, this one is an absolute necessity. Especially as website traffic picks up and threads will gradually start to get longer. Definitely need a one-tap that takes you all the way back to the top.

You can hit the currently highlighted tab at the bottom and it will take you to the top

It won't take you back down after tapping again like Apollo though

Agreed also missing this feature. Also swiping back on the menu bar at the bottom!

Dear god yes! And that little button that lets you scroll down to the next comment would be wonderful too

I think its a limitation of wefwef being a PWA, the workaround provided by aeharding is to tap the Posts button instead.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

You can hit the Posts button to do that, but it’s kinda buggy and constantly stuck in the middle.
