Hey testers! Please use this thread for give any feedback and report any bugs for Bean 1.1

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 ❤️

I found Bean to be the best client - but it’s gone. What’s everyone using instead?

I can’t find the app anymore on the App Store and when I click on the sidebar’s link a popup shows up and says the app is not available in the region.

I still use Bean as it works for my uses. But, disappointed there wasn’t more transparency and communication. Also, disappointed it wasn’t made Open Source so someone could’ve picked it up. It feels like multiple levels of “screw you” to users

So is Bean completely dead? I noticed it’s not even in the App Store anymore. Still have the last version on my iPhone. Should I delete it?

Now that http://wearecocoon.co.uk is officially out of business (subpages are still working) did anybody try to get a refund in the App Store?

Edit

I just opened a fraud case with Apple support: http://reportaproblem.apple.com/

Would like to know more about what’s going on with the development of this app? Any plans? How are things going? What sort of things will be the primary focus in the near future?

Or am I missing something?

Hey Steve,

its been a while since your last occurrence, when you and your buddy re-assured your commitment and explained some time of absence: fine with the most of us. But since then: silence.

Some of your early customers already moved on and wrote off their invest.

Could you please step the game up a little and start managing your community and maybe our expectations? For example you could share a rough roadmap, just so we know, that you are still on it and your community issues were heard? Or take half an hour once a week, biweekly or monthly to communicate your progress and what you are up to?

Best wishes a early stage customer that already resorts to other clients

How do I hide the voting buttons in the feed view? They take away a lot of screen space and I am not voting on anything I have not yet read. I didn’t find this in the settings. Thanks.

What happened to the ai summarizing?

1.1 has seen no progress. 1.0 hasn’t been updated in about a month.

I really don't like the desktop web Lemmy UI, it's really ugly in my opinion. Is there an app or something I can use for lemmy.world that'll make it just a little more... idk, prettified?

Now Lemmy 0.19 has been released it would be great to see the new "Scaled" sort option in Bean. Hopefully its a simple request.

The scaled option is basically a tweak to Hot, which gives equal weightings to small communities too.

Seems to fix the image upload issue.

Thanks Steve and team! Hoping for an update that includes widgets soon 😏🫡❤️

BTW I get a json error about unexpected token < when trying to upload image

Just wanted to see how the app dev is tracking along? Can we expect an update before the holidays start? Cheers

For whatever reason, Bean shows no content. Other clients show a link or embedded video file.
