Needs an option to move the arrows to the right-hand side so I can scroll with my thumb and tap the arrows with the same thumb. Also, needs a light mode, quick account changing, and community muting for when browsing All.
Ive been thinking about customizations like that while working on it. I want localization, so everything already has right to left support. I can use that piping to help w moving arrows.
Also, youll be able to double tap to vote ;)
(Community muting is a must for sure)

One thing I hated about Apollo was swiping gestures. I don’t use them and they get in the way so many times. Sometimes, I didn’t even know that I upvoted/downvoted a post unknowingly! I can’t disable it coz I’m a freeloade so I have no complaints.
I just want to suggest that it would be nice if you give users an option to disable the gestures if the app has them.
Noted, adding to my list of customizations I want to make 👍
I never used Apollo since I've always been an Android user, so I don't know what features will be inspired from it, so I wanted to ask whether there would be in-app browser support for links so it doesn't open other apps? And will there be plans for gesture navigation support like the Relay and Joey apps?
I used Relay for a couple years way back. You betcha I’m gonna get as much as I can in smooth gesture interactions 👌
And yea, it uses an in-app browser. Will expose config for those who want that off, also.
Also, I heard a lot of great things bout Joey, so I gotta get my hands on it 👀
Alright, now I'm even more excited! Thanks a bunch for putting time into this.
Got a link to your alpha/beta sign up? I'd definitely be interested and trying it out.
For sure! https://forms.gle/e24FMBvSdUUv5VmE6 and the Discord :)
Aaaand signed up 😁
Signed up a few days ago, it looks fantastic! Can’t wait to start testing it out.
Joey was the best app, in my opinion. The big image previews (and full size by long press and holding for images and gifs) and marking read by scrolling past are two of the standout features
There is a light mode as well, I suggest joining the Discord server. Hariette is accepting ideas and feedback there.
If you use kbin on mobile and want this right now swap the layout to compact.
Excellent suggestions. I would have the same ones
