Hey πŸ‘‹ I've been working on a new Lemmy client called Bean for the last few weeks and I've put out an early beta.

It's missing some features at the moment but I'm working to get it feature complete by early next week and would appreciate some feedback as I develop!

You can find out more over at !bean@lemmy.world but here are a few screenshots.

Let me know what you think if you do check it out.

Writing this from Bean, and from my short time with it I do like it. Bright future ahead for all the fediverse and Lemmy apps!

[–] steve228uk@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Thank you! I too am writing this from Bean ❀️

[–] ToastyBanana@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Holy shit dude, I was not expecting to be blown away by your super smooth app! This will give Memmy a run for its money..

I have a few remarks, tapping on the "comments" section in my profile does not render them properly!

The themes and app icons are awesome!

While I can use the stock CC slider for font size, it would be nice to have in Bean settings, especially since fonts are in one of the logos inside settings πŸ˜„

Thanks so much, I really appreciate it! Aware about the issue with comments and a new build with a font slider is rolling out on TestFlight right now 😊

This app really looks nice! Any ideas on bringing Bean to android?

I’ve been using it for a couple of days now. Very nice so far

Keep up the great work.

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

I love it! My favorite one so far. Looks very polished. My only concerns are 1) how do I get the images big like in your second screenshot and 2) please let me customize the swipes.

[–] steve228uk@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

If you tap the icon in the top left corner on home to change the view. Customising swipes is on the list but I’d love to know what exactly you’d like them to be.

[–] KuroJ@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

Damn, not another Lemmy app that I have to add to my TestFlight!

Update: Very clean and smooth app. The icons are awesome. The upvoting works when scrolling through topics but not in the comment section.

Good first impression, looking forward to future updates!

[–] steve228uk@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Haha, hopefully Bean makes it to your home screen πŸ˜‡

  1. It looks great, but I don't understand why there is a NSFW filter in the settings since we already have one in the account. Is it because you want to add more filters in the future? Stuff that would be impossible to do from the settings of your own account?
  2. Can you add a setting to remove haptic feedback? I hate this in every application.
  3. It's so good I would pay for your application.
[–] steve228uk@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Yeah, there will be a bunch more filters in there in the future such as keyword filtering. I'll see if I can pull down account settings but that's mainly there to mitigate any potential issues with App Store review.

[–] steve228uk@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I will add an option to remove haptics in the next build πŸ˜„

Installed minutes ago, already fell in love. Would be my daily driver for Lemmy now. One question: are you planning to let users edit the swipe gestures? Instead on β€žsaveβ€œ I would like to have β€žhideβ€œ

I’m not on top of all the apps, but this looks like the sort of cleanliness I’d be into. Very nice interface.

Also, as I’m sure you know, great icon.

[–] steve228uk@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Thank you πŸ˜„

@steve228uk New to the fediverse, but how do I connect my mastodon account to this?

[–] swm5126@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I really like the design. Can’t wait to see it with more features working!

[–] steve228uk@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Thank you! More stuff rolling out now like comment upvoting and replies 😊

[–] aCosmicWave@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Beautiful app! I will definitely be keeping an eye out for future iterations. Looking forward to you implementing the ability to collapse comments, vote on comments, etc.

Downloaded it through TestFlight however when trying to login, the app crashes.

[–] steve228uk@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Is you instance open for registrations? I’ll see what might be different if so.
