It's appreciated testing various versions of iOS, and ensure all functionality matches the Progressive Web App.

Comment below with any issues that don't exist in the Progressive Web App and aren't listed below.

Known issues:

  • Post photo upload doesn't work
  • Haptics needed in many places
  • Saving a photo crashes

Thanks!

What’s everyone’s experience so far? Mine:

  • haptics are nice
  • status bar tap is very welcome
  • the back swipe issues seems to be a bit better, but not entirely solved
  • browser appear animation is really nice
  • the scroll hiccups seem to be also better, but also not entirely gone (short time of being inactive, but it then works without me waiting a second)
  • nav bar icons are still spikey (I’m probably the only one looking that closely at it, but I was hoping that might be fixed with the native version)

I do find it interesting that the back swipe then scroll freeze issue isn’t entirely fixed. It doesn’t stay frozen like the PWA if you keep swiping but it still latches for a sec before you can keep swiping.

Came to comment this. The back swipe then scroll freeze issue isn’t fixed at all to me. I can replicate the bug every time. The only two reasons for me to use this over the PWA for now are haptics and scroll to top. Hopefully this opens the door to push notifications in the future.

Push is already possible for Android PWAs and with iOS 17 also for iOS. Regarding the scroll freeze, does it still stay frozen for you as long as you’re trying to scroll after the back swipe?

[–] alexius@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It does stay frozen until you lift the finger for a second or so. I see no difference whatsoever.

[–] fer0n@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Hm, okay. For me that part is definitely fixed

I just noticed I’m an iOS version behind, so that may be it. I believe it was released this week. I’m on 16.5.1 instead of 16.6. Will edit this comment after updating to see if that does it.

Edit: Nothing changed.

[–] fer0n@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

I wouldn’t be surprised if that doesn’t fix it, but sure, worth a shot :)

[–] fer0n@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Yes, that’s the same thing I was experiencing

I’d like to see haptics implemented when hitting the voting buttons too, not just on swipe
