FAQ

When will insert feature here be implemented?
- Check our issue board--if there isn't an issue open for the feature you want, feel free to open an issue or make post! Just remember that devs are people too--we're doing this for free in our spare time, and building a quality app takes a lot of patient work.
Is Mlem available for Android?
- No. Mlem is written using SwiftUI, which is not currently supported on Android. If such support becomes available, we will look into bringing Mlem to our Android friends.
How do I join the beta?
- We are currently testing our new 2.0 codebase on TestFlight. We have two beta groups: a weekly group that receives the current state of our development branch every week, and a stable group that receives a curated pre-release build at the end of each development cycle.

Can’t figure out how to save images (lemmy.world)

Is there a place to tap to do this? Long press doesn’t seem to bring up a context menu.

Afaik currently you need to copy the url of the post, open it in your browser and then download the image. The less elegant solution would be to take a screenshot and crop it down.

Ugh, I was afraid of that. I’m also testing Memmy, and after some prodding I managed to get its image viewer to present a save icon when tapping on images from the post view, so I can do it there for now, but I’m sure not everyone runs two clients.

I’m really used to a long press popping up a context menu in addition to whatever other UI there may be, so hopefully at some point one of the apps will add that, and Mlem will add save in some fashion.

(I love to keep cute cat pictures. Missing mine a lot!)
