Please keep in mind that Reddit was around for almost 10 years before an App was created.
I’m sure the developers of Jerboa are working hard for a full & stable release, especially before Reddit’s 3rd Party Kill Date of 6/30/23
The best option for Android will likely be Tildes App by the ‘Reddit is Fun’ developer. Source. While Tildes is not Lemmy, it does Federate with it and you’ll be able to access Lemmy.ml communities.
Swipe to Vote app applied for TestFlight approval today for a beta test. I’m not sure if this will be iOS only or have an Android counterpart.
I’m using the beta for mlem on iOS - but there is no Android version.
I was using Jerboa before, but honestly I think just using the browser page for Lemmy is better. Load up your preferred instance in your phone’s web browser and then in your browser options hit “add as app” or “add to home screen”
Basically yes. Some websites are more designed for it than others and behave as what’s called a “progressive web app”. If you ever hear PWA, basically what that means is that it’s a browser app pretending to be a desktop app.
I’m using “jerboa for Lemmy”. Is that the best option? Feels very beta.

Huh never saw that “install app” on Chrome before, just “add to home screen”. Is this just like a shell that hides the address bar?
