Download Arctic on the AppStore!


I am thrilled to announce that Arctic is now available on the AppStore! Looking back, it’s amazing to see how much progress Arctic has made in the last six months. Initially, I began working on Arctic as a personal project to fill the void after leaving Reddit during the API fiasco. I had no intention of releasing it publicly. Now, I have a fully-featured Lemmy client, a fantastic group of beta testers on TestFlight, and an official release on the AppStore.

However, the journey isn’t over yet. I have many exciting plans for Arctic, and this is just a significant milestone. Going forward, I plan to release more targeted updates on TestFlight and create a public roadmap for AppStore releases.

I would like to thank everyone who was involved with Arctic’s TestFlight for all the valuable feedback and suggestions that have helped shape Arctic!

Community groups would be an awesome addition!

I’ve wanted to incorporate these for a while now, and I’ve just been putting it off primarily for performance reasons while loading multiple feeds concurrently. I finally found a solution that handles this quite well, so I’m definitely excited to incorporate groups.

I’ve been holding out hoping that lemmy would incorporate this in the API, which I believe they have planned, but with the fragmentation of communities on Lemmy, I’d like to add support for this sooner rather than later.

Would it be possible to group similar posts / crossposts like on the web interface?

That would be a neat feature.

(this is photon web interface (), this is default lemmy web ui), both show crossposts below the original posts, but photon ui is more detailed than lemmy web ui.

I’m working on this right now. It will basically embed the original post in the cross-post similar to the web-ui and other clients.

Alright, I’ve added support for embedded . I should hopefully be pushing out the next update either this evening, or tomorrow.
