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

    Awesome! Will the TestFlight version stay active or should we all migrate towards the AppStore version?

      I’ll still use testflight before App Store releases, hope to get the initial v1.0.4 up there next week. If you wanna test things earlier and you’re comfortable with a few more bugs then testflight is the place to be! The test version is a tiny bit outdated atm, but just for a few days
