the creator delayed the launch because he had to write the legalese for the service, and on top of that I think he’s waiting for the app stores to approve the app (the service isn’t available through a browser).
Theres no web app? That seems short sighted. You apparently cant access anything without logging either. I dont expect these shorts to get much viewership if you have to register and download an app to see anything. It also doesnt seem in the spirit of the fediverse
I doubt that. From what he said somewhere on Pixelfed, the beta is only on Android right now and you don’t need approval to publish something on the Play Store. From personal experience, apps appear within a couple of minutes. On iOS, the usual approval time would be 3-4 days.
Ah alright, then they must have changed it since I last added a new app. The last few years I just published updates and they all went through almost immediately.

You definitely need approval to publish on the Play Store. It’s just more basic

Don’t see how he can just upload the apk for people to download
