    Memmy seems like a solid choice, very active development. It has been offered to Apple review last week and should appear in the appstore soon.

      I second Memmy. I’ve tried the others available currently, including wefwef and Memmy is my favorite. wefwef is second, but an actual native app still feels better imo.

        Agreed. I love wef wef but still has some weirdness being a web app. Memmy is my favorite installed app.

        I third Memmy, but the amount of times I’ve gone to close a comment thread and it’s brought up the new comment dialog. And I can’t rotate an image to landscape, had no idea how often I did that. Still, old Apollo habits die hard. It’s a great contender.

      Memmy is very polished! I’m astonished how well they’ve designed the app. It’s very familiar to anyone who has used apollo but, dare i say it, better!

      I’m currently using Memmy and it’s nice to navigate. Unfortunately, it crashes fairly often for me.

      Seconded Memmy here. I was originally using mlem and Memmy but I’m afraid Memmy has taken the league in my books. Honestly already at this point, it supersedes Apollo in some ways (like customisation of themes).

      I’ve been using Sync for a couple of hours and already uninstalled Liftoff and Connect hahaha. Don’t get me wrong they’re both great, but Sync is that much better

      It’s unbelievably polished for a first release. Not 100% feature complete mind you, but it’s mind blowing the dev pull this off.

      I’m so happy it’s here, made the transition so easy with the effort they made to make the experience so similar to browsing reddit.

      I left Reddit when they killed RIF. In Lemmy, I wanted something similar and tried Jerboa and Connect. Those apps didn’t really feel like RIF no matter how much I customized it. Sync really is the definitive replacement for the RIF experience. I gotten my version to look and feel like it exactly.

      Sync and Boost are indeed outstanding, just like they were on Reddit. My two favourites, no doubt about it

      Sync is the reason I’m here, and the reason why my Reddit account is practically dead. For me, Sync was Reddit, and without it I have no reason to stay.

    Not a native app, but i’m using the wefwef web app, and it’s pretty awesome and getting multiple updates a day.

    It’s a web based clone of Apollo

      Wefwef looks nice and I really want to like it but I keep tapping the back button and getting sent all the way back to my communities list, and therefore losing my spot in the scroll. It’s getting old really fast.

        Me too - it has weird quirks that at this stage may be turning potential users away.

        To be fair though, it’s something that’s been put together very quickly. I think it’s had 2 updates even just in the last 24hrs, to resolve some of these teething problems (and accidentally introducing more). I’m happy to stick with it and be patient; it’s still in beta and would be unreasonable to expect a fully functional product at this point.

        Some frustrations will also be coming from the decentralised nature of Lemmy. I’ve noticed issues with using my lemmy.world account or looking for content on lemmy.world from a different instance, and this isn’t really a fault of wefwef or anyone to be honest (as .world is really struggling with excess load atm). It’s early days, it’s going to be rough, we just need to be patient and mindful.

      Wefwef is now Voyager and has native apps for iOS and android as well as web app (WEP) and yes it’s still the best option imo

    for Android I think Connect for Lemmy is the best around. also, it gets literally better day to day since the dev is following the app’s community and fixes bugs, implements things from there super rapidly.

      By far the best interface on android so far. Looking forward to Sync for Lemmy and Boost for Lemmy as well.

      Using it right now. Very nice interface, especially comment field

      I love the formatting tools

      that are placed at the bottom

      And enable easy text fancification

      I agree. So far it’s the best one I’ve used on Android. It has things like settings for font sizes.

      UPDATE: I find myself using Liftoff more now. I couldn’t exactly tell you why. The only things it’s missing is an option to make the comment font larger.

          Ah I see. I don’t have access to that store. And connect is not on f-droid store because ot’s closed source. I wonder why using a closed source lemmy app if we have open ones.

              It is becoming each day more critical to choose open source over closed source. It’s a matter of security, privacy and concentration of power

      I love eternity! Although it’s probably because I was so used to infinity beforehand.

      I tried jerboa and liftoff as well and they were fine, but eternity just has that familiar feel

        There is a search on bottom. Search a name then switch to community tab. Or just select it from posts.

        Only thing, it cant search more than one instance at once (I think). Otherwise best app imo

    It was previously my least favorite android option, but Jerboa is coming together nicely.

    I also have Thunder and liftoff installed. I bounce between all 3.

    I’ll most likely be jumping to Boost if/when that comes out because I’m just so used to it.

      So I just got here to Lemmy, and only briefly have checked out some of the apps, but Connect is my favorite so far. It looks good and let’s me hide posts.

    For me personally, Jerboa is the best Android Lemmy app that I’ve tried, and I have tried several of them. I’ll just be glad when Sync for Lemmy is released.

      I have tried Jerboa, and have just tried liftoff. I prefer the UI of Jerboa and it’s in fdroid also!

      Tried Sync, Liftoff, Connect and Lemmotif (I think that’s all the free ones on the playstore as of August '23), and I am always preferring Jerboa.
