It’s here: our 1.1 release candidate! This is the last set of features for our App Store update next week, and we’ve got some exciting ones for you:

Features and Improvements

  • Brand new search interface, allowing you to search for users or communities (posts coming soon) and featuring a beautiful new result preview
  • Image uploading. You can now upload an image when creating a post!
  • New icon: “Stargazer", designed by Sjmarf
  • Edited posts and comments now display the updated time

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed images all appearing as squares (and, I hope, finally put our scrolling issues to bed)
  • Fixed settings icons not rendering properly on iOS 17
  • Fixed a bug where connecting to instances on localhost was impossible
  • Smoothed out editor sheet animations
  • Fixed logging in before email verification crashing the app
  • Fixed opening posts from URL links crashing the app
  • Fixed swipey action animation and context menu animation trying to run at the same time (ONLY on iOS 17—Apple fixed this behavior generally in iOS 17, there’s unfortunately nothing we can do about it in iOS 16)
  • Clarified error message when trying to log into a private instance

Known issues

  • Tapping a “recent searches" suggestion for a community or user not federated with the current account will fail to load
  • “Official Community” link on some instances federated with lemmy.ml still opens in-browser
  • Items to the right of the spacer in the widget customizer do not initially register taps if the widgets have not been customized since the last build. This is due to inconsistencies in the saved widget config data, and can be fixed by simply moving some widgets around.
  • Info stack does not properly adjust its alignment when it is the leftmost or rightmost element

Cheers, The Mlem Group

    For some reason, the option to download an image is missing. Is there is something in doing wrong?

      To download an image you can tap the image to open it in full screen, then tap “quicklook” at the top.

      We’ve got an issue open to add a more intuitive long-press option on the image itself.

    The only thing holding me back is finding a way to only view new posts.

      To show only posts you haven’t read, you can click the ellipsis ‘…’ button in the top-right of the feed and select ‘hide read’. Note that this only hides posts that you’ve opened or interacted with in some way, not just seen. We’re planning on improving this at some point in future
