Go check it out, it’s pretty cool. It also shows a check mark which is a nice visual cue for sorting.
btw, are there any graphic designers here with experience with SVGs? If we want to make this feature even better, we need custom calendar icons!

What are you looking for in an iOS app? If it was an iOS app, it would just be a wrapper web view.
One think I have noticed is that Apple has done a poor implementation for notifications on PWAs. But other than that I don’t see a reason to go native.
It’s getting better. There is a fix for sound not working in the next version of iOS.
Remember indexeddb? That took Apple years to get right :/
Might make it easier for normal people to find. First thing I did was search the App Store for Lemmy. There was nothing there of course. It wasn’t until a couple days later I came across wefwef and am super happy with it.

Does the PWA allow for haptic feedback? I miss the satisfying clunk associated with actions
Navigator.vibrate API is only available in non-Safari browsers, unfortunately.
This is the only thing keeping m me from using wefwef. I’m using Memmy instead because it’s similar enough but has the haptics.
For me it might be notifications. But I believe Apple at least recently got the api working to allow for notifications via web apps.
Implementing that, however, may be another story. But it’d be neat.
Web apps can notify.
However I’m not sure - that might require a backend server to SEND notifications to your device.
Yes once things calm down a bit I’d love to request Lemmy to support web push.
Elk, a web client for Mastodon, can send push notifications because mastodon supports Web Push 😁
Unified push may be worth looking in to: https://github.com/uniqush/uniqush-push
Wefwef is already a hosted application so I don’t see why it wouldn’t be able to handle push notifications for the installed clients on the hosted wefwef instance. Besides the code not being implemented yet of course.
You will be surprised how many people have never heard of PWA/webapp. They install Angry Birds from the app store and expect all apps to be installed and updated the same way. Having it listed in the app store will significantly increase the visibility of your app as well, reaching more people who are not familiar with the “lists” that only core Lemmy fans have seen.
Also, many people are biased against web apps because of previous experience.
I’ve got an iPhone 14 Pro with the 120hz display. The animations in Apollo were flawless and just incredibly smooth/responsive.
My only critique of wefwef is that some animations seem a bit clunky and don’t seem to take advantage of the higher refresh rate. Is this a limitation of webapps? Or could this be improved with later updates?
While I am completely in love with the web app format, the main reason I’d like to see an AppStore app is for you to make some $$$ and continue development for a very long time ❤️
