    Arctic was released on the AppStore and the TestFlight gets weekly updates and it’s really great.

    Memmy, Avelon and Bean seem to have been abandoned.

      It almost seems like the only apps (other than purely web-based ones) that are still being developed for iOS are Arctic, Mlem, Thunder, and Voyager.

      Edit: And Lemma had a pretty big update recently, too. I should include them as well.

      Thanks! I’ve updated it a little just by quickly going through the communities. Also lifted the link to lemmyapps up so users won’t miss it. Let me know if there’s anything I’ve missed!

      Of the three I’ve used (Memmy, Mlem, Wefwef), Wefwef is the only one that seems to be able to tell that you’ve read a reply and stops showing it as unread. Unsure why. Very very pleased with Wefwef.

      wefwef is seriously one of the best PWA I’ve ever seen. I’m interested in trying out mlem once it goes live on the App Store

        Why do you want to wait for the App Store version? FlightTest is made by apple, no jailbreak, no illegal things. It’s a separate App Store where you need an invite link to access an app. And here is the Link

          You’re right, I don’t have a good reason not to use it other than preference. I used to be on beta for everything when I was on Android and when I switched to iOS I decided not to.

            So why is that your preference? You didn’t really say.

              Well I did mention why in my previous reply. I used to be on beta for all my apps but I got tired of things sometimes not working and having to update all the time and/or missing features. So now I prefer stable, more feature complete App Store builds. It’s just my preference.
