  • That’s from Apple—thanks for letting us know, I’ll see if I can turn it off because that’s a pretty obnoxious popup

  • Thanks for letting us know! That link is out of date--the beta is still open, and you can sign up with this link. We'll have the GitHub updated shortly.

  • Good spot! That is intentional--we're building towards our 2.5 release, but are holding the version number at 2.4.1 in case we need to release a hotfix to the App Store.

    The latest TestFlight build should be 642.

  • Can’t swap accounts after update

  • Dev here—just jumping in to mention that we had to remove the long press gesture for iOS 26 because of the new system tab bar gesture to drag the bubble around. We put considerable time towards finding a way to keep it or implement a suitable replacement, but did not find any good approaches and ultimately had to remove it and rely solely on the existing swipe up gesture. Our apologies for the inconvenience.

  • As you correctly observe below, we get uptime from lemmy-status.org, which doesn’t currently support Piefed. We do plan to expand this feature to Piefed, but it will require finding a new data provider and updating our code to process it, so our priority right now is adding support for features closer to the core interaction loop of the app.

  • I actually just finished implementing glass controls! They’ll be available in the next build. I’ll look into time skip buttons as well, that is a useful feature :)

  • Thanks for the feedback! The native player is unfortunately a bit picky, and doesn’t work with every video/animated file format. To keep the experience smooth and consistent, we decided to use our custom viewer for everything rather than open a different viewer depending on the file format.

    Are there any specific features of the native player that you would like to see in Mlem?

  • Long term we want to integrate the more sophisticated iOS 26 tab bar design. Right now we still support iOS 18, which makes using those new features difficult because they are only available on 26. Once we drop support for 18, there’ll definitely be some tab bar upgrades.

  • We’re definitely still refining how we use the new design language, and we’ve played around with some iterations on that concept. The core challenge right now is retaining compatibility with iOS 18, which limits which new features we can use. For small components like the jump button it’s pretty easy to support both an iOS 18 and an iOS 26 version, but the tab bar is foundational to the whole app’s architecture so we probably won’t get to utilize the full extent of the new tab bar options until we drop support for iOS 18.
