UPDATED: There are now multiple iOS / Android apps in development for kbin & lemmy!

donut4ever, 10 months ago

I'm hoping for infinity to make it here, too. If that happens, I think reddit would basically be dead to me more than it is now

once Slide migrates to lemmy, I officially have no reason to miss reddit.

DoctorTYVM, 10 months ago

Which ones best?

BrollyLSSJ, 10 months ago

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 !

nydas, 10 months ago

I’m using Memmy. It’s working well. I’m logged in using lemmy.world, but subscribed to kbin magazines.

Bonzo, 10 months ago

But which ones are available without TestFlight for iOS?

visualfeast, 10 months ago

wefwef.app is, and feels native on my phone and ipad!

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...

teuast, 10 months ago

I haven't, but I am also a longtime BaconReader reader so hopefully that can be carried over.

I saw that Sync and Slide were going to be ported. Didn't know about the rest. This is awesome!

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.

Community !lemmyapps

HerrLewakaas, 10 months ago

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? :)

rist097, 10 months ago

This is not a competition. I can give you moderator if you want to moderate the community. There is no point in making 2 communities.

Edit: Or did I misunderstand you and you are making an app, and not a list and community? In that case please message me so I add to the list. The idea is to track all apps, no matter maturity

rist097, 10 months ago

Yes, if you are working on an app, message me I will put it on the list. Thank you

HerrLewakaas, 10 months ago

Will do :)

Is anyone else having issues with Jerboa for android? It immediately crashes when I launch it.

estebiu, 10 months ago

yup. Just update it :D

SMT42, 10 months ago

I was having that issue until i managed to log in. It's been fine after that

Holyginz, 10 months ago

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.

Why so little love for kbin?

exscape, 10 months ago

Probably in part because there is no API yet. At least I hope that's a big part of it.

moistclump, 10 months ago

I’m not as savvy with the technical… How do you even make an app without API? I thought it’s the thing that connects the stuff?

exscape, 10 months ago

It's not pretty, but you can simply download the web pages and parse the HTML instead (this is called scraping).
The main downside is that it breaks easily for even smaller changes in the HTML, so if kbin is updated, the apps may need an update to start working fully again.

solidsnake2085, 10 months ago

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

kabe, 10 months ago

Do any of them have a functioning compact post view yet?

Durkinator, 10 months ago

Memmy's compact view is pretty solid.

kabe, 10 months ago

Darn, and here's me on Android.

zabil, 10 months ago

Can you get Jerboa to work? It just crashes on my phone

kabe, 10 months ago

I get the occasional crash but it's generally workable most of the time.

haulyard, 10 months ago

Mlem recently released an update with compact view that’s been well received. I’ve been using it for about two weeks and have enjoyed it. Note that there has been some hiccups on the developer side, with the main dev departing recently. The handover to other devs will slow down the release pace a little bit.

wilberfan, 10 months ago

Around here, we refer to this as a "yay!".

KuroJ, 10 months ago

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.

r1dley, 10 months ago

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.

MrBlank, 10 months ago

Commenting from Memmy. It is a great start for the app and already has progressed far.

pinwurm, 10 months ago

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.
