Hi everyone,

We are aware that the TestFlight version is pretty unstable at the moment, with a lot of bugs and crashing. This is because we are in the middle of rewriting our entire state management. We appreciate the testers who let us know what issues there, are but please be respectful when doing so.

If you don't wish to deal with the current instability of the TestFlight version, please download the App Store version as that is meant to be stable. When using TestFlight, you get all the latest features, but that also means you get the latest bugs too :D

As another reminder, creating bug reports in GitHub is still the best way to have your issue addressed.

Thank you to everyone who helps us test Memmy!

Sean

To be fair a lot of people have it on TestFlight because originally that was the only way to get it.

It’s not like you don’t know it’s beta software though. Installing TestFlight and adding Memmy involved many steps.

Not to mention it’s not complaining, it’s commenting there’s currently a bug, which is the basis of this forum. Unless there’s demands coming from the user or unreasonable expectations, it’s serving it’s intended function.

Heck, I was downvoted for it, as if I was somehow bashing Memmy for the listing a bug, that later build was decided to unstable. I figure there’s always going to be overly defensive users thinking they’re “helping”, by being divisive to the community.

Yeah, I think lots of people had FOMO about missing updates whenever the App Store version dropped, and mistook the stability of "preparing for release" as what the stability would be long term.
