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

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
  • Kbam (iOS, 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
  • Jerboa (Android, lemmy): link
  • Slide (Android, lemmy): link
  • Sync (Android, lemmy): link
  • Connect (Android, lemmy): link
  • Summit (Android, lemmy): link
  • Lemon (iOS, lemmy): link
  • Liftoff (iOS, Android, lemmy): link
  • Boost (Android, lemmy): link
  • Bean (iOS, 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 a very early stage of development so it may happen that they adjust OS availability and platform support.

No Lemmur ? It was litterally the only Lemmy app for month (maybe years)

@liwott It was abandoned

Hey @frasassi, I've been working on a github page to track these apps (and some other info as well). But you have a few I didn't know about, so I'd like to add them if that's ok with you. Let me know if you'd like to collaborate on keeping that up to date (or something similar in another location).

@Zak8022 Hi I don't own the info so feel free to copy it over if you feel like it. I'll keep this here up to date as it makes sense to me for the info to be on the fediverse rather than outside (I see several github and google drive copies now). There are a few links on reddit point to this post here as well.

Yo, I have used and even forked your page! Cool to run into you. I have put yours and OP's apps into a neat Github .md table with links to communities and Github as well as development status if you are interested in adding it to your page. Would love to contribute.

Makes one! Glad it’s been useful. I’ll take a look at your fork tomorrow.

doophy,

Google Sheet for tracking this as well.

There another potential app, Fedilab - fedilab.app
Not in development (yet) but there’s some feature requests to support Lemmy/Kbin:

codeberg.org/tom79/Fedilab/issues/887

As excited as I am about the Fediverse and its diversity, this is the real dream. I'm afraid efforts are splintering into too many redundant apps (15 at this point across both platforms) when they could be focused on the one app to rule them all with clean, working interfaces for as many federated applications as possible. With Fedilab already supporting Friendica, Mastodon, Pleroma, Pixelfed, Peertube, and even GNU Social (with plans to support CalcKey), adding Lemmy / Kbin would be a game changer for me and many others. Add Funkwhale and maybe WordPress and it's game over you never need to download any other apps.

Here is another kbin app to add, from the developer of pixelfed:

Summit is also in development. It is a lemmy only reader (for now) for Android and it is in open beta. https://lemmy.world/c/summit

I hope RIF, Apollo, Infinity... and all the other wonderful alts have been reached out to. They are a big reason for the migration.

imperator,

Yeah RIF is my app. If I get one that works like that for Lemmy that would be awesome.

christophski,

Has anybody tried multiple apps? I'm still on Jerboa, wondering if anybody knows whether it is worth switching?

NocturnalNebula,

Thanks for this! Been using Limbo and Memmy on iOS and really like them. I can’t wait to try Artemis because it will support kbin.

dark developers give me the forbidden kbin apps

Lodespawn,

Any KBin app would have to pretty special, the mobile page is pretty great as it stands. It's got a few small bugs but none of them are showstoppers.

Could you add what OS and which service each app is going to be for? That way, people better more what to keep an eye on.

Gamers_Mate,

Awesome I am gonna try Artemis.

Anybody get around to getting all of these into a nice, updated awesome-table on Github? Yanno to cleanly display which ones are lemmy / kbin, iOS / Android, FOSS, etc.

Xylinna,

All of this is so exciting to see!

ToNIX,

It's now readable on Jerboa 0.0.35!
