...👀

Edit: should also mention this is only one of the key features. The client will also have a website version that functions - hopefully - near identical to the mobile app. It will be offline first allowing you to browse cached content without internet.

Love Voyager but this is the biggest downside. Would be happy to join the TestFlight when it’s up. Good luck!

Try Tesseract, maybe? I've never decided if it's a desktop app that scales down for mobile or a mobile app that scales up for desktop, so I've tried to make it both. It's not offline capable (yet), so it doesn't check that box, unfortunately.

Even if you don't like it, I'm mostly curious how it does on a real tablet. I've never tested it on a tab since I finally decided to stop buying them as they always end up relegated to a drawer until I give them away to someone.

Boost has a tablet mode that it uses for Foldy phones in their unfolded state as well

I beefed up tablet support for Summit for Lemmy a while back. If you end up giving it a tey i would love to hear your feedback since its not a use case I dogfood often.

Sync supports two panel layout. Plus, it supports multi windows for supreme Multitasking. Once you load something its available offline.

Sync is Android only, right? My Apple will work on Android, iOS, MacOS, and web.

Great. If it can include offline reading and multi window it would be superb.

It won’t be multi-window in the sense that you can browse two feeds at once or have a feed and post open at the same time, but it will take advantage of the larger screen.

I do think the multi-window feature is cool. I think there is room for a few really good Lemmy apps with slightly different philosophies. Another example is I’m not planning on being as gesture-driven as Voyager. If you like gestures, Voyager is a great app! It’s possible I will change my mind later, but for now I have a design in mind.
