Rules
- Keep it civil.
- This is a forum for discussion about Mlem. We welcome a degree of general chatter, but anything not related to Mlem may be removed at moderator discretion. This is not a forum for iPhone/Android debate. Posts and comments saying nothing but "iOS bad/I use Android" will be removed as off-topic.
- We welcome constructive criticism, but ask that it be both precise and polite.
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?
- How do I join the dev team?
- Head over to our recruitment channel, or go straight to our GitHub and read CONTRIBUTING.md to get started.

They are under search now. Touch the magnifying glass, then saved.
Thanks a million. I think this is how the 3rd place this has been located since I used this app. I liked it best when it was under my profile with my post and commenting history. Feeds made sense as well. I’ll admit I’m baffled by this placement.
It was moved here to keep you from losing your place in your feed while looking at saved.
Well that’s a positive! I hadn’t been bothered by that behavior but I could see it making others nuts. Wouldn’t the effect have been the same if it was moved back with the profile related posts? Not that it has to move there or anything. I’ll be used to this in a couple days max. Thanks for the help!
We feel that it’s better if your own profile appears exactly the same to you as it does to other users. Putting Saved in the profile might give the impression that everyone can see your saved posts, which isn’t the case.
In future, we also want to add post history, vote history and the uploaded images list. If all three were tabs in the profile, the tab picker would get super long and slow to navigate.
In the Search tab, there’s plenty of space to put all of those buttons without requiring the user to scroll through a picker. This is also where Apple puts the “Saved” list in some of their own apps (e.g. News), so putting it here makes it easier to find for users familiar with those apps.
I hope that makes sense. This is only on the TestFlight at the moment; we’re interested in what people think about this change so thanks for the feedback :)
Personally I prefer consistency across consumption mediums. On the instance I use saved posts are kept under profile when using a browser. Of course adding more than exists in there today(history) would make it fairly busy and planning for the future makes a great deal of sense as well.
Great point about the news app storing the saved stories under search. Though that search icon feels like a catch all for everything on ios26.
