Native iOS App #385

Closed JoshAtticus closed 2 months ago

JoshAtticus commented 2 years ago

What do you want to see?

I know you can use PWA for iOS, but for me, app.revolt.chat doesn't load. It might be possible to make an app and allow people to sideload the IPA file, or use testflight; with support for up to 10,000 users; which is free instead of the App Store with its $99 p/year fee.

this is a good idea, I'd like a invite link when this goes live on testflight

JoshAtticus commented 1 year ago

Turns out it was just my old phone, although a testflight would still be nice so it isn't laggy like a safari pwa

UnixPhonez commented 1 year ago

great to see the status of this issue has been changed to in progress, can't wait for the beta

FillingTheVoidOnYT commented 1 year ago

would be great to have an testflight

this would be a great idea

JoshAtticus commented 1 year ago

Good to see that the status is set to in progress!!!

JoshAtticus commented 1 year ago

And for a little bit of clarity, testflight essentially allows you to share a native iOS app with up to 10,000 iOS devices for free, and if that limit is reached, you can just make another testflight. While it does require a mac, so does deploying to the app store :)

Moving back since the original PR is now inactive.

Update: Zoma will start development on the native iOS app very soon (we're getting the necessary hardware tomorrow) ^^

Woohoo! I can do testing on my devices. I have an iPhone 8, iPhone 12, iPad 6th Gen, and an iPad Pro 2020

ryan-roche commented 1 year ago

Absolutely willing and able to assist with testing. Current hardware is an iPhone 14 Pro and 2018 iPad Pro

andreyrd commented 11 months ago

Is there any reason the iOS app isn't currently open source? I have iOS experience and would be willing to contribute a little.

insertish commented 11 months ago

It's just that it's still in heavy development, I could forward an inquiry if you're interested in helping out? Currently Zomatree maintains the iOS app.

jwmh commented 10 months ago

I’m using an iPhone 7. iOS 15 (Hoping Zomatree be able to build for that)

tjb commented 7 months ago

I would be interested in helping out too @insertish if Zomatree needs some extra hands

insertish commented 2 months ago

actually i will just recreate the issue since this is going on a special project board https://github.com/revoltchat/revolt/issues/690
