Liftoff is the only app that does swipe anywhere to go back so it’s the only real usable alternative so far

I tried Thunder yesterday and it also has that feature.

[–] perennial@lemmy.sdf.org 6 points 1 year ago

So does Memmy, does it not?

[–] Vub@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Thanks for the tip, trying it now and it seems nice!

[–] Vub@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Me again, it doesn’t seem to work with swipe anywhere in the comment section though. Too bad :( I hope they’ll fix it because the app (Thunder) seems nice. Back to Liftoff…

[–] jaamesbaxterr@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Does liftoff do it from the comment section? I haven't tried it. And if so does that interfere with your upvote/downvote swipes? (If it has that) I tried turning off the upvote/downvote swipes on thunder and it still wouldn't let me swipe out of a post from the comments but now that I think about it, I wouldn't want that unless it was only just one half of the screen so I could still upvote. I keep going back to Voyager because it feels like Apollo and I'm hoping they'll emplement the swipe back at least from the post portion soon. I've got like 5-6 apps for Lemmy on my iPad. It's pretty great we're getting so much to choose from.

I’m like you, I also switch between many and Voyager sure is very Apollo like. And one of the apps that most consistently works.

Yeah, Liftoff allows for swipe anywhere also on comments. That’s how I personally want it, different behaviours depending on where you are is not very nice. You can still swipe left to upvote or save I believe, I am not sure if itself possible to change that yet.

The best thing would just be if one app managed to copy Apollo, it is the gold standard in usability.

I also think it’s very impressive with so many cool apps. Fantastic developers. But I kind of wish I had just one that was suiting.

On Memmy and swipe for back is working

[–] noqturn@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

Can confirm I just tested it.

[–] Vub@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

We must not be on the same version then. In Memmy I can only swipe anywhere on the bottom menu bar to go back (and of course from the left edge of the screen like all apps).

[–] FederalAlienSmuggler@feddit.de 6 points 1 year ago

Infinity for lemmy does that too

[–] Deca@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

It works perfectly fine on Sync

[–] 9point6@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Sync does this too, and you can enable a discord style sliding drawer too

I set my android to use swipe gesture to go back. So this is not an issue for me. Anyways. Posting this using Voyager

also plugging infinity for lemmy, it's really good, but incomplete as of the moment.

[–] Vub@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Thanks for the tip. I’m on iOS. I didn’t know you could set swipe anywhere on the screen in Android to go back. That’s cool.
