Test Flight is here!

https://testflight.apple.com/join/nWLw1MBM

It's appreciated testing various versions of iOS, and ensure all functionality matches the Progressive Web App.

Comment below with any issues that don't exist in the Progressive Web App and aren't listed below.

Known issues:

  • Post photo upload doesn't work
  • Haptics needed in many places
  • Saving a photo crashes

Thanks!

Cool! Installed it to replace the PWA. Nice work!

[-] [email protected] 16 points 1 year ago

Howdy! I’m still new to Lemmy. Why does your username appear red to me in the Voyager app?

Are you super special? Are you dev royalty??

[-] [email protected] 44 points 1 year ago

Ohhh am I red in the app? Hadn't noticed :-) I'll go see a doctor. Doesn't sound good.

[-] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago

He’s like the Prime minister of lemmy.world

Lemmy.world founder and overall cool dude 😎

What’s everyone’s experience so far? Mine:

  • haptics are nice
  • status bar tap is very welcome
  • the back swipe issues seems to be a bit better, but not entirely solved
  • browser appear animation is really nice
  • the scroll hiccups seem to be also better, but also not entirely gone (short time of being inactive, but it then works without me waiting a second)
  • nav bar icons are still spikey (I’m probably the only one looking that closely at it, but I was hoping that might be fixed with the native version)
[-] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago

I do find it interesting that the back swipe then scroll freeze issue isn’t entirely fixed. It doesn’t stay frozen like the PWA if you keep swiping but it still latches for a sec before you can keep swiping.

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

Came to comment this. The back swipe then scroll freeze issue isn’t fixed at all to me. I can replicate the bug every time. The only two reasons for me to use this over the PWA for now are haptics and scroll to top. Hopefully this opens the door to push notifications in the future.

I’d like to see haptics implemented when hitting the voting buttons too, not just on swipe

I can't believe how quickly you work. You're a legend. I can't wait for the Android app.

[-] [email protected] 14 points 1 year ago

Jealous of iOS users! Looking forward to Android release!

[-] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago

Works great so far!

[-] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

to those curious, the download is only 14 megabytes and its silky smooth and appears much faster to me. it didn't remember my settings from the wefwef pwa. submitting posts and comments and votes so far all work perfectly for me.

this thing is a release candidate in my eyes.

[-] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago

Here we go!

[-] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

Got it and am posting this from the app. Well done!

[-] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

so awesome, since memmy became very unstable.

Just found one curiosity, if you post something new it would be great if it opens the keyboard directly. At the moment you still have to do an additional tap to on the comment area to bring up the keyboard!

Otherwise amazing work!

This is awesome. Everything’s great except anytime I try to save an image to my photos it crashes

Bug:

Tapped on the OP in the thread below to collapse it, and end up getting the whole app shifted up/offscreen, and the comments cut off below.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I had this happen too. The time on my phone was overlappping with the post…

Holy shit, it's real!

I wish we could give awards on Lemmy.

[-] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

This probably is a nich feature, but is it possible to get deeplinks (example voyager://inbox or voyager://vger.app/inbox/unread)?

[-] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

We can definitely do deep linking with a special URL, however I want to avoid links to vger.app opening the app. One of my pet peeves are apps open that when I'm just trying to browse their site.

[-] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Wait so this is now an actual app? Genuine question!

If so that’s cool!

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

Swiping back instead of accidentally upvoting is much better here than the web app.

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

Question and I'm sorry I missed it if it has come up before. Once the native app is released, do you plan to continue development of the PWA? I love the PWA and love that it can be self-hosted.

[-] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

1000% yes, it's using the same code!

[-] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Wohoo!

That was quick! Testing using iOS 17.

There seems to be a delay on the keyboard which is not present in the PWA however this might be because of the beta version I’m using.

I also find the font sizes of the header quite large. Perhaps there could be an option to resize?

Edit: the reply bug where when you reply to a comment, the comment thread shows in the reply area is still present.

Wow, this is awesome! Thank you!

I'm keeping an icon for the PWA Just In Case though

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

I noticed there's no version number in settings compared to the PWA.

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

The app seems to work great ! Thank you !

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

Awesome! But can you please have an .ipa available for download on GitHub, so we don't need to depend on Apple for updates.

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

Maybe in the future, builds are through App Flow which doesn't have a way to make builds public, and I don't want to manually upload an ipa every release.

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

Where do we submit feedback? The TestFlight email link is not working for me. Basically my bug report: if you auto fill passwords, validation error reports pwd is empty , unless you manually auto fill both fields separately which beats the purpose of auto fill. Probably unnecessarily early front end validation.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Here is fine, otherwise I think you can through Test Flight app.

What password manager? It's working for me in Bitwarden.

I’ve been using the PWA version of Voyager for the last month, and today I’ve experimented with the new Test Flight app.

I have just two words of feedback:

Nailed it.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Hope you can later share Android APK and have auto-update feature without relying on Playstore.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Have you heard from you early adopters in the delta quadrant?

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I notice when I click on a YouTube link in the PWA it opens up in the same window and takes me to the link, but when I click on the same link in the TestFlight app it opens in a separate window. Is that intended?

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

Not intended, just the way native apps work. At some point I will need to add code to explicitly open certain things in their app.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

would be great to make it a settings page for which media type/app to choose how to open them.

Now that’s what I’m talking about. Great work!
