The app has an amazing experience so far, because it feels like I'm just using Apollo, heaps of baked in features that no other app has so far. It's a web app so installation is pretty forward. Much love to the Devs!

(Side note: please change the name to something better. I recommend the name Voyager to keep up with the theme)

Installation:

https://wefwef.app/settings/install

Update:

Having issues? It's to do with rate limitations, this should be resolved soon but right now you can Use:

https://w.opnxng.com/settings/install

Here's the Dev's notes on that:

Great app, thank you for this !

[–] ThatGirlKylie@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Just installed it to my Home Screen. Acts just like an app. I’m new to these web app type things and spaced instances, but baby steps.

This already seems a lot better than Reddit.

[–] DrManhattan@lemmy.design 1 points 2 years ago

I've been using Memmy as it is an actual app and not a web app, and it has a theme actually designed by Christian Selig, the developer of Apollo. Plus it allows logging in to any Lemmy instance and not just the most popular ones.

It's pretty good but so far, I prefer Connect for Lemmy. They are both close though.

[–] FeatherConstrictor@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (4 children)

I use connect but am considering trying out Wefwef as well. Can I know why you prefer Connect?

[–] Smurfe@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I get a lot of "problem fetching post" error messages on wefwef. I sort of like the layout of connect better. When wefwef does load, it does seem to load faster than any other Lemmy app I have tried.

So I’m weird and don’t actually have any apps on my Home Screen. I just use Spot Light and the the App Library screen. Is there anyway to get a web app to show up on the App Library? Because I don’t like how this one app is different from everything else on my phone and has to live on the Home Screen.

Other than that, I agree! It’s a pretty sweet app this far.

Is this iOS only or is it available for Android? I can only seem to find connect on android

thanks for posting it, hand no idea this existed 🥰 only downside is having to switch account for certain actions, it would be cool to have everything in one place

[–] theyoyomaster@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

How do I save an image from a post to my phone?

I wish there were a black theme but I like the app a lot

If you're loving wefwef because of it's Apollo likeness, then you need to checkout Memmy

It actually introduces all the features Apollo had with native haptics, slide interactions and navigations, push notifications, and more. The developers have been working hard and pushing releases daily (sometimes multiple per day).

As an Apollo users for the last 6 years, Memmy has been by far the best iOS app for Lemmy that I have tried (which have been Mlem, Thunder, Liftoff (prev. known as Limbo)

It's been extremely buggy today. I want to love it, but it's just not there yet.

Can you use this with kbin?

[–] Demigod787@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago

Yup, was just commenting there about AI generated content.

Is there no way to use it with a feddit.de account?

[–] kubusikan@feddit.de 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

There is - choose "other" and input "feddit.de" in the URL field. Then just fill in your feddit username and password.

Thunder and Memmy both have swipe interactions as well and they’re not web apps.

[–] Taalnazi@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yeah, I've been using Mlem and Memmy. Mlem reminds me more of Apollo design-wise, but Memmy now is a bit more usable. Still, all of the suggestions are great.

[–] moosh@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I’ve been mostly flopping between Memmy and Thunder. Both are quite functional. Memmy seems a bit snappier and Thunder has a nice, clean UI.

[–] Taalnazi@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (2 children)

Haven't tried Thunder yet, but it indeed does resemble Mlem from the looks of it.

@Demigod787

I'm waiting for the option to block communities and people. then I will be able to happily use wefwef.

edit, I'm not against anybodeyor anything, but there are times that some entity gets spammy.

It's pretty good, but lacking at least one very fundamental possibility:

You cannot comment on another comment with wefwef You cannot downvote a comment

Wow it looks reaaaaally good. Doesn’t seem to be a dark mode though?!

Also, praying for marking posts as READ as we scroll past them. Best Apollo feature

[–] ragekutless@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I’m using it in dark mode right now, I think it goes off of whatever the system theme is when you install it as a web app.

I have been using Memmy and trying Mlem, so far Memmy seems amazing with each days updates... it is insane how much it has improved just over the past 4-5 days..

Guess I'll try Wefwef too so I can compare each of them. :)

[–] dimspace@lemmy.world -2 points 2 years ago

web app so installation is pretty straight forward.

Ugh.

Web apps only work if you have a launcher that supports home screen icons. Not everyone does

So, no way of installing it for me, not straightforward 🤣
