Thanks for subscribing and bearing with the awkwardness of renaming over the next week or so :)

    Congrats!

    I’m switching back and forth between wefwef and Memmy and I wish you the best!

    Still hoping to customize swipe actions and a read indicator. The latter is already nicely implemented in Memmy.

    I’m very excited about all the development of these apps. Thank you for all your hard work!

    Really do think you’re closest to Apollo. Think only haptics is missing and that’s crazy given how short of a time you’ve been at it. Great work!!

        I have the latest and I don’t feel anything. Weird. Maybe I’m missing something? Like typing right now I feel the keypad haptics but bot when I interact with this app.

    I love the new app name, thanks for helping me not need to type WefWef except for this one last time. You absolutely rock!

    You guys also fixed the long post bugs today. Totally impressed.

      I’m glad you appreciate that bug fix! It took all day to fix.

      Web apps controlling on-screen keyboards cross platform is really difficult, unfortunately!

    This is a much better name. I love the reference to Apollo.

    Although, saying wefwef was fun.

        There is a point because its much easier to get people to start using an app they can get from app stores. Also lots of apps are built as web apps regardless

          I meant it’s a pwa so you can add it to your Home Screen and it will act like a native app

            Again, most people browse through apps and find apps on the App Store.

              It’s pointless to pay to get on the app stores when the apps work perfectly fine as a web app. Also most people will eventually find out about wefwef/voyage since it’s getting recommended everywhere.

                It really doesnt matter if its pointless or not. There is a familiarity with App-Store Apps, PWAs are a “new” concept for the vast majority of people. While they exist for a really long time now, almost nobody uses them.

                  It’s mainly the fees that both the google play store and Apple App Store charge, I’m not sure if the developer is willing to pay the fees. Also the dev would have to put the app in a wrapper which isn’t worth the effort and Lemmy isn’t mainstream so they wouldn’t be loosing any traffic or money

    What made you switch the name? I always felt wefwef pretty cool and less risky to run into copyright/trademark problems than with your new name.

    However: Fantastic app, I will stay!

      Went to wefwef.app, started using it on iOS and added it to my homescreen. Turns out, the name was voyager instead of wefwef. You can imagine I was very confused about it before doing some digging.

    Thank you so much for allowing blocking of communities and fading post that I’ve already read. It’s incredible how quickly you’ve given us updates and made Lemmy my go to over the last couple weeks. But the last couple updates have been amazing!

    You guys are kicking some serious ass with the updates and features.

    I moved back to android off ios and the only real app I missed was apollo, so this is really scratching that itch!

    I am still looking forward to sync for lemmy, but honestly with the rate that this is being worked on with this passion, I may just have to stick with weyager

    Do I need to change anything? I still have a PWA icon on my home screen called wefwef. Will that still get updates? Will it eventually change to voyager?

      You can keep it and you will still get updates, but PWAs will keep the same old icon and name until/if you remove and re-add to homescreen

        Honestly, the name was a big reason I downloaded it, along with how active the developers have been. I keep forgetting the names of the other apps. Wefwef stood out, along with the cute mouse.

        It seems like the users are happy with the name change, and I’m excited for the devs to be working on their finished concept.
