Hi Boost gang,

The first version of Boost for Lemmy is almost ready. If you want to test the app for bugs and give feedback before the app is published, follow this link https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.rubenmayayo.lemmy to enable an early access option on the Boost for Lemmy Play Store listing.

Thanks for your patience!

It just gives me an error when i try to download it. "Google play payments are not supported in your country. I'm in Germany

There's this general problem:

My password was too long for Sync and Voyager and now also Boost; I've been using Jerboa since it worked in that client.

Since Boost also had the issue I changed my password to a shorter one.

The old one was something like

Friday-Ramble-Patriot-Apricot5-Tractor-Litigator-Shove-Antivirus

... and the new one is shorter and is causing no issues.

Works great. It really feels like I'm using Boost for Reddit. Thank you mate, ad-free version purchased :)

[-] Boldizzle@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

For some reason I'm unable to pay to remove ads but I believe it might be a Google issue. Loving the app so far though!

[-] Dufrais@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Feels like home, have used Boost for absolutely years, so glad it's here for Lemmy now too

Amazing work

[-] khuldraeseth@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

It's good to be back! This might just be my having missed a setting, but my system navigation bar has a white background even with the OLED dark mode active here. Aside from that, flawless so far!

Hey all, I may be missing something obvious, but is it possible to add an account for an instance not in the pre-made list?

[-] WyldeFyres@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I would love to know this too.

Edit: yes, you can. Just type in the URL yourself in the instance box. No need to select from the list.

I'm here ๐Ÿ˜

Wife is getting this error when navigating to the download page from the "You are a Tester" page. It loads a Google Play page with the download button, then gives this error. Opening the Play app doesn't give her the download button. Any ideas on how to resolve this issue?

Looks great!

[-] redbr64@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Thanks @rmayayo@lemmy.world (testing how I can mention at users in Lemmy lol). Loved the app before, and this reincarnation is why I'm even in Lemmy right now in the first place. Already bought ad-free and also put some extra fuel in the rocket! ๐Ÿš€

Edit: testing mention again, since I didn't see it become a link in my comment: @rmayayo

My experience with the app has been amazing so far. It actually works far better than the official lemmy.world website

[-] SchizoDenji@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Is there a setting to show seperate upvote/downvote counts? I'd prefer that over the "net" score which reminds me of r*ddit.

[-] Nipplecreek@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Can I sort by only gifs, pictures, or text? It was an option for the reddit version but I can't find how to do it on this new version for Lemmy.

[-] rmayayo@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

That option was disabled for Lemmy. Maybe it returns in the future.

[-] hogart@feddit.nu 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

When I press install it wants me to enter my password. When I'm back to press Install nothing happens. Whaaat.

Edit: works after about 45min. Patience ain't easy.

Edit2: You mean I can remove ads in this beautiful piece of work of an app for a normal price? Guess what! I paid! Nice work!

[-] Justly0250@lemdro.id 2 points 1 year ago

I'm trying this. Is very smooth!

[-] ChiefGeek1@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Thank you. Ad free purchased! Keep up the good work

[-] midniter@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Thank you very much! I used Boost for Reddit, which was amazing, and I didn't use any app for Lemmy until this was released.

[-] Briguy@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Is it possible to get an amoled dark theme? Thanks for all your hard work!

[-] stealthnerd@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

If you have dark mode enabled in your android display settings then you can use the dynamic color option in boost to inherit amoled black from there.
