The amount of apps being developed for iOS / Android is getting really crazy now and new apps keep popping up every day. Updated list below:
- Artemis (iOS, Android, kbin, lemmy): link
- Memmy (iOS, lemmy): link
- Mlem (iOS, lemmy): link
- Morpha (iOS, lemmy): link
- Thunder (iOS, Android, lemmy): link
- Beyond (iOS, Android, kbin, lemmy): link
- Limbo (iOS, Android, lemmy): link
- Jerboa (Android, lemmy): link
- Slide (Android, lemmy): link
- Sync (Android, lemmy): link
- Unnamed (kbin): link
- Connect (Android, lemmy): link
- Summit (Android, lemmy): link
- Lemmynade (Android, lemmy): link
- WefWef (Web App, lemmy): link
Most apps on the list are lemmy apps, meaning they don’t work with kbin. Artemis is specifically designed to work with kbin, not sure if or when any of the other ones will go in that direction or become interoperable as there are some challenges with the kbin API at the moment. Having said that, a new API is in the works (https://codeberg.org/Kbin/kbin-core/pulls/357) so things should get better with time. Some of the apps are in very early stage of development so it may happen that they adjust OS availability and platform support.
Lemmynade has the advantage of being FOSS. Currently testing it out, I like it quite a bit.
Thunder is also FOSS. I was thinking of contributing since it is made with Flutter and I work as a Flutter developer.
I’ve never contributed before but I feel like this whole Reddit/Lemmy switch is a great opportunity to give back to the FOSS community for all the awesome apps I’ve used these last few years!
👀👀Hey there, developer of Thunder here. It would be great if you could contribute towards the project! I’m still very much learning about Flutter/Dart and I’m sure there’s a whole bunch of things that could be improved!
Now kiss.
Jerboa and Slide are also FOSS.
I created a community to keep track of apps in development. Here is a list I compiled, it has few more apps I found on github.

I’m working on one as well right now, idk if it will become a serious contender, but if it does should I message you? :)
Yes, if you are working on an app, message me I will put it on the list. Thank you
Will do :)

Just want to give Memmy a shoutout! Those on iOS should highly consider testing the app. It has a lot of features already implemented in it and the team is releasing quality updates daily.
Using the app right now. Love getting daily updates and seeing the thing built in real time.
They plan on submitting to the App Store 6/27. So if you can’t get in the Beta, you don’t have to wait long - pending on how fast Apple can review it.
Also using Memmy, and it is great for such an early product. Works quite well on both iPad and iOS where I’ve been testing it out.

I’ve been a Sync for Reddit user for probably about 6 years now. I’m hyped for when it releases for Lemmy!

Has anyone heard anything about BaconReader going Lemmy? I’ve used that since I discovered Reddit and was hoping I could carry on with it on Lemmy…
I haven’t, but I am also a longtime BaconReader reader so hopefully that can be carried over.
The list could maybe be updated. Seems to be that both devs of Limbo and Lemmynade joined forces to create Liftoff!.
And FYI, Liftoff allows users to search for posts and not just communities !
I saw that Sync and Slide were going to be ported. Didn’t know about the rest. This is awesome!
Around here, we refer to this as a “yay!”.
I’m on Comment. looking good!
Link? Maybe OP will update their list to include it.
But which ones are available without TestFlight for iOS?
wefwef.app is, and feels native on my phone and ipad!

Which ones best?
Is anyone else having issues with Jerboa for android? It immediately crashes when I launch it.
yup. Just update it :D
I think because the latest version is for lemmy 0.18 and the default instance is on 0.17. That’s what i understood anyway.
I was having that issue until i managed to log in. It’s been fine after that
It does that some times for me. I think it’s just growing pains and how quickly so many people are switching over. I have zero doubt that as time goes on the majority of the issues will be taken care of and things will get smoother.
