Hey everyone 👋

Bean for Lemmy is now available on the App Store for everyone to download!

The app is free to use with a “Pro” plan that gives you access to some premium features like push notifications and multiple accounts, as well as a bunch of customisation options with more themes and app icons available.

Thank you to everyone who tested the app over the last month. I’m really happy with what I’ve made in a short period of time but… This is just the beginning and I have so much more planned including mod tools, kbin supported more!

I hope you’ll check it out and I look forward to hearing your feedback ❤️

    Any plans to add a safari extension like Apollo used to have and Ivory currently has? I’m all for buying in on good software, but that’s one of the requirements for me to buy in.

    It looks great!

      A share extension? That should already be there, you might just need to turn it on.

        If you used Apollo or Ivory you might remember they both have a Safari extension where they take links to instances and open them in the relevant app. Apollo would just open reddit links but Ivory takes a link to any Mastodon instance and opens it in the app. It would be awesome to have the same happen with lemmy instances. I think Memmy is planning on something like that

          Oh, gotcha! Yeah, Ivory has “Open in Ivory”. Not a difficult thing to add, just was t something I thought about!

          I’ll add it to the list of things to do 😊

    How long will the lifetime discounted option be available for? I will go for that once I hit payday at the end of the week.

        Pro lifetime purchase. This is the only Lemmy app I use making this well worth it for me.

      Thank you so much!

      The fake payment seems to get cached for a while (I think 24 hours) but it seems like deleting it fixes things.

    can Bean work with kbin accounts? I know the two are federated, just wondering since that’s my home instance 😛

      At the moment Kbin doesn’t have an API in the stable release. When it does I plan to add support to Bean.

      In the meantime you’ll need a Lemmy account and sub to Kbin Magazines from there.

      Hopefully not much longer!

      There is also the Artemis app for Kbin. I use Artemis for Kbin and Bean for Lemmy. They’re both incredible apps.

        Are you on Artemis.camp? Because I’m trying to log in with my Kbin.social account and it doesn’t let me

          I am. It’s due to the Kbin API not being ready. So the workaround is using the .camp for now

    Before I buy Pro, is there a timeline as to when image posts will mark as read correctly when the image is opened from the thumbnail? (Links seem to mark as read correctly when clicking the thumbnail)

    Thanks!

      I’ll get that fixed for 1.0.2 so within a couple of days.
