App Store
App Store
Now that Memmy is in the App Store on iOS, I feel like Wefwef is going to be left behind since this is the main place people go to discover apps. I know that Wefwef is a PWA web app but if it could be put in the store that might get more people to use it. Are there any downsides to being in the store?

I couldn’t get in the Memmy’s TestFlight, but finally had a chance to try it when it made it to the App Store. I have to say, i still much prefer wefwef.
I have some problems with wefwef, mainly scrolling back to the top after closing and reopening the app. I usually have to just kill it or go back to the subscription page, and go back to the feed. It seems like a problem with PWA as I never had that problem with any native apps, but i could be wrong. I also wish there was hepatic feedback, but it’s not a big deal. Swiping back doesn’t work consistently either. I end up downvoting random comments by mistake more often that actually triggering a ‘back’ swipe. It seems that it’s a PWA issue too, but I’m not sure.
If these issues can only be solved with a native app vs PWA then i’d prefer a native app too. If they can be addressed in a PWA, i wouldn’t really care either way. it’s easier to selfhost a PWA
There’s a bunch of little things like that, freezing here and there, the back swipe not working as well, tap on status bar, the in-App browser popping up instead of sliding, haptics missing, …
We’ll see how all the apps develop. I currently still prefer wefwef due to it working and looking the best (even with these small annoyances).
