Here's some cool app store screenshots of the app:
Developing this app has been one of the best development experiences I've had, and I feel very privileged and happy to have been able to contribute to Lemmy in this way. Nothing is more motivating than seeing so many people already enjoying the app and providing suggestions and feedback.
I really hope you enjoy Avelon, and I'm looking forward to hearing more about what everyone thinks. Keep the feedback coming!
Thank you, Sigve Rokenes
The phone app is basically perfect. Not sure how I feel about how the iPad version looks in landscape mode. Maybe if the gray area to the left & right was BLACK, it would work?
Plans for alternate / custom app icons?
Thank you! I wanna do more custom icons, but I'm not that good at graphics design. If people wanna create some icons I'm definitely down for adding a community pack tho.
Avelon is designed for phones first, so the iPad one isn't on par yet. Wanna do split layouts etc at some point, but I figured basic iPad support is better than none.
Thank you for the info! Solid start!!!! 🤙🏽
Calling all artists! Creative app icons 🙏🏽
Even a dark icon to replace the white one would be a good start.
