Here’s some cool app store screenshots of the app:
Developing this app has been one of the best development experiences I’ve had, and I feel very privileged and happy to have been able to contribute to Lemmy in this way. Nothing is more motivating than seeing so many people already enjoying the app and providing suggestions and feedback.
I really hope you enjoy Avelon, and I’m looking forward to hearing more about what everyone thinks. Keep the feedback coming!
Thank you, Sigve Rokenes
Congratulations on the release! Is the Test Flight build going to be updated going forwards, or will it be just the main release?
Good question! I’m still gonna use testflight before release, so if you wanna see what’s coming earlier and are comfortable with a few more bugs then just keep using testflight.
The testflight version is temporarily outdated just now cause I had to focus on getting the release ready. This won’t be the case in a couple days or so
Awesome, thanks! I’m more than happy to stay on the test flight and report back any issues I find!
