I have 4 mobile iOS apps on TestFlight. They seem to get big updates daily. I know lemon will be coming soon. So that will be 5. Things are moving fast.
I have 8 Android apps downloaded. I get multiple updates per day. I’m subscribed to GitHub release notification and my email is blowing up nonstop.
Everyone is working hard, which is great. Just a few weeks ago when I joined Lemmy the Jerboa app was pretty shit. I’d give it a 2/10. Now it’s a solid 6/10. Just needs more features and to stop timing out every 60 seconds.
Feels very Apollo like with things like slide to upvote and reply
Doesn’t seem to be able to handle inline images and media (so you sometimes miss post information)
Switching to new communities is not intuitive (you have to click the community name and type with the “Subscribed” toggle pane open)
No guides on how Markdown works
No message inbox
Memmy
Has an inbox (not something I’ve seen from the others)
Has Apollo like slide interactions
Easy to find and switch communities
Text is a little too small
Found a couple of visual bugs (obviously this is all very beta!)
Liftoff
Seems to show all the post information you could want (community it was posted too, which community that user is part of, etc)
Feels a little bit like the official reddit app
No Apollo like slide interactions
Some interesting choices when trying to find communities (showing the full sidebar)
Colours are a little constrasty
A couple of UI bugs
I don’t love the rounded corners on everything out of the box
Thunder
Pretty polished
Slide interactions are great
Nice Markdown editor
Not found any graphical bugs
Some UI elements (subbing / unsubbing from a community) aren’t always clear
Written in flutter so may not give a true “native” experience
Impressive. Now let’s see the mobile devs git contributions
Connect is doing great, just got an update 3 hrs ago for and fixed some things I just noticed a moment agk

Can you recommend one? I’m on MemmyApp currently, and the basic functionality mostly works, but I wouldn’t mind trying other options.

Can you list the four and which is most like Apollo? 🙈
The dev of the Thunder app is insane. New releases three times a week, with a lot of new features each time.
No kidding! I posted an issue on github yesterday and it was fixed in the release this morning. Absolute machine.
Shoutout to Memmy. The updates are coming at a furious pace.
