Avelon App

Big Congratulations evgiz,

I’m sure the love and fan base for Avelon will only grow from here on just the way we loved it here in TestFlight..

I wish you all the success and growth with Avelon development.

Thanks and really happy for you.

This is an amazing app, and such a better experience and UI than I was seeing in other Lemmy apps. I’m curious if you knew that opening the app kills playing audio (music or podcasts)? Autoplayed videos & GIFs are muted by default already, so I’m confused why my already playing audio is stopped on app load? Edit: I should mention that this does not occur if the view setting is “compact”. I do t generally use that setting, but I wanted you to know.

Congrats! I had Avelon from the start and I must say, what a journey it has been! You are one of the most responsive dev that I ever had the pleasure of interacting with.

The app keeps getting better and better, congratulations! And I can’t wait to see where you’re going with the app.

The app is not bad. The browser needs reader mode. Give the choice to make it all black.

Installed and set it up and it’s a very nice and impressive app! Will jump between voyager, memmy, and this to see which one I stick with.

Any reason for not using SFSafariViewController over the custom UI?

Does the app supports sharing (stream of) comments as pictures?

Love the app. Two questions.

I feel like I’m missing something obvious, but how do I create a new post? I can reply easily but when I’m in a community I don’t see any way to create a new post. I assume I’m missing something obvious.

Second, the full page swipe is fantastic and something I love from Apollo. Would it be possible to support swiping the other way also? In other word, I open a post, accidentally swipe right, but then I could swipe left to go back exactly where I was. Another thing Apollo did so well.

Thanks for an awesome app.

I’m really digging this app. Very well done and well made.

Would it be possible to get a sort by top 6 hours? I know that was never a standard for Reddit, but I’ve found it a valuable tool for browsing Lemmy.

I switched from Memmy a couple weeks ago and before that was a long-time Apollo for Reddit user. I have moved over just now from the TestFlight and couldn’t be happier. Thanks and congratulations on the official app!

I do note that the app doesn’t seem to remember the placement of the thumbnails, it resets back to the left after closing. Not a biggie though.

Thanks for this app, I really love the clean UI and responsiveness, also the features like individual hide read post settings.

Is this a native Swift app?

Awesome! Will the TestFlight version stay active or should we all migrate towards the AppStore version?

Is this opensource? (Does the fruitstore allow that?)

Will there be an Android version?

awesome, just upgraded. is there a way to turn off haptic feedback?

Also, just wondering if you have any thoughts on adding support, or creating an Avelon for kbin when the API goes public?

Fantastic app. Thanks for this. Been using lemmy more since this app.

It would be nice to be able to view pictures in landscape mode, sometimes portrait is too small on a phone. Loving the app!

This app went from I hate the icon and won’t even look at it to moving on my homepage with this last update. Community grouping was the one thing that I’ve been chasing and Bean ad implemented it but not in a clean way. Avelon came second but did it right! Also the new app icons are so much nicer than the default. Last thing it needs is push notifications.

Also, the paid plan feels like it’s very intrusive in the regular use of the app in free mode and gets frustrating. Maybe let some functions available to free users to get them to stay instead of pay walling all the good stuff. Or give a 7 day trial or something.

The search bar shifts when scrolling under explore. Can you lock it at the top or even better at the bottom for one handed use? 😉👌

Are you planning to have a feature to expand video and gifs to full screen? I had to switch to other apps for this feature at the moment.
