Hi Boost gang,

The first version of Boost for Lemmy is almost ready. If you want to test the app for bugs and give feedback before the app is published, follow this link https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.rubenmayayo.lemmy to enable an early access option on the Boost for Lemmy Play Store listing.

Thanks for your patience!

thanks and it is very good like the old version. But unlike the previous Boost, the push notification does not worked.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah, I forgot to add the notifications permission. Fixed for the next beta. Thanks!

thanks, looking forward to the next update. if this happened. Boost will be the first Android client that support widget and push notification.

Well, it is not push notifications, the app checks for new notifications periodically.

I remembered Boost for Reddit have push notification by connect it with Reddit app and the notification is quite fast and comparable with original Reddit app. Is it possible for Boost for Lemmy have real time notification like that similar to old one?

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

For real time notifications that has to be implemented on Lemmy side

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Noted for that, as a workaround, I saw the earliest check in interval is 30 minutes. is it possible to make it shorter? i.e: 5-15 minutes
