The app has an amazing experience so far, because it feels like I’m just using Apollo, heaps of baked in features that no other app has so far. It’s a web app so installation is pretty forward. Much love to the Devs!
(Side note: please change the name to something better. I recommend the name Voyager to keep up with the theme)
Installation:
https://wefwef.app/settings/install
WefWef’s community page: c/wefwef

Update:
Having issues? It’s to do with rate limitations, this should be resolved soon but right now you can Use:
https://w.opnxng.com/settings/install
Here’s the Dev’s notes on that:

Totally agree. I never thought the best client would be a web app on my home screen, but here we are!
This is nice! my only suggestion would be the ability to minimize cards for a text feed, if that’s something that’s eventually possible.
I like how smooth wefwef is, but if I could keep everything from auto-expanding (i.e. just scrolling through titles instead) it’d be closer to the old.reddit / RiF experience 🙂
This is amazing. Using it in my iPad Mini right now!
Holy shit, THANK YOU!!
I’m so confused. How can it be so rich without being a full blown app? I have been enjoying Memmy, but can’t really find what separates the two.
Lots of improvements to web app support in the past few years have largely gone unnoticed since, overall, not much effort really goes into deploying proper web apps. Installing an app from the App Store is also simpler then “installing” a web app. I personally prefer native.
I share the same shock over Wefwef though, blows me away is an incredibly strong example of what web apps can now do. It’s still missing a number of things from Apollo, but that it seemingly came together as polished as it is now in just a week or three is stunning.
Very nice. Thanks for the call-out!
Wow it looks reaaaaally good. Doesn’t seem to be a dark mode though?!
Also, praying for marking posts as READ as we scroll past them. Best Apollo feature
It doesn’t work on an XR. The interface is too tiny to click login unfortunately.
It’s so weird how eerily similar it is to Apollo haha, but I’m more than happy to use it. I’m using Memmy at the moment, first day using Lemmy!
It’s a PWA issue that I’ve hit a few times. Only solution is to restart the phone.
Whoa. I’ve been using Memmy lately but this one is like a carbon copy of Apollo. Will there be the feature to see saved posts soon?
Yes
It’s absolutely amazing. The thing I’m missing the most though is to be able to customize gestures/swiping like on Apollo. I’m so used to upvoting/downvoting by swiping left, and going back one page by swiping right, from wherever I swipe (on Apollo I only reply by long pressing a comment).
The developer is aiming for Apollo feature parity, so it should be coming :)
The Thunder app has those features FYI!
Deployed it to https://app.apollo.town so my instance has a local copy right away. Thanks for the tip mate
Is there no way to use it with a feddit.de account?
Just hit “login”, then select “other” and put feddit.de in
Absolutely the closest thing to Apollo. Hoping all the customizations Apollo had come next!
