Rules
- Keep it civil.
- This is a forum for discussion about Mlem. We welcome a degree of general chatter, but anything not related to Mlem may be removed at moderator discretion. This is not a forum for iPhone/Android debate. Posts and comments saying nothing but "iOS bad/I use Android" will be removed as off-topic.
- We welcome constructive criticism, but ask that it be both precise and polite.
FAQ
- When will insert feature here be implemented?
- Check our issue board--if there isn't an issue open for the feature you want, feel free to open an issue or make post! Just remember that devs are people too--we're doing this for free in our spare time, and building a quality app takes a lot of patient work.
- Is Mlem available for Android?
- No. Mlem is written using SwiftUI, which is not currently supported on Android. If such support becomes available, we will look into bringing Mlem to our Android friends.
- How do I join the beta?
- We are currently testing our new 2.0 codebase on TestFlight. We have two beta groups: a weekly group that receives the current state of our development branch every week, and a stable group that receives a curated pre-release build at the end of each development cycle.
- Join the weekly beta
- Join the stable beta
- How do I join the dev team?
- Head over to our recruitment channel, or go straight to our GitHub and read CONTRIBUTING.md to get started.

Ayy that’s awesome! And it looks great so far! I love the custom swipe animation for comments! Are there any plans to bring it to macOS through catalyst? I got it working (sorta) but I’m no programmer so I couldn’t solve any of the bugs haha. But it’s looking sick, great job!
Aw man, supporting another platform is a bit tough atm, and we certainly can’t commit to the Mac at this point, but just for you I threw in a bunch of extra Catalyst fixes so the app won’t crash so much, and do stuff like properly save accounts

(If you know how to clone and build that branch I would love some feedback, that’s where all the extra iPad stuff goes)

Oh, that’s awesome dude, thank you so much! And perfect reasonable about not working on three platforms at once for now haha! I’ll definitely give it a go tomorrow (Australian time) and report some bugs although I’m admittedly not 100% sure what you mean about cloning the branch. Do you mean on GitHub?
Here’s a direct link to the version of the app that contains all the iPad fixes

Have fun!
Wow, this works great! Sorry, I don’t use GitHub very much haha. Where do you want me to report issues? Should I just post them as an issue on the main page or is there a specific iPad version I should use?
I think just open an issue on the main app issue tracker, assign it to me (“tht7”) and we’ll see how we roll from there
It doesn’t look like I actually have the permissions to assign issue to people or add labels. I even thought I was just missing something and looked at GitHub’s documentation to see how to do it and the button wasn’t there on my screen. But I submitted the issue and tagged you. Hope there’s a bit in there for ya. And thanks for making such a great app! I’m loving it on my Mac so far too
