Jerboa is a native-android client for Lemmy, built using the native android framework, Jetpack Compose.

Warning: You can submit issues, but between Lemmy and lemmy-ui, I probably won't have too much time to work on them. Learn jetpack compose like I did if you want to help make this app better.

With a lot of talk around new apps in development & coming on stream, something I've been happy to see, & commented on, as choice is always a good thing... I thought I'd just voice my appreciation for the Jerboa team, love this App, such nice Ui & UX, I find it very easy to use, all the view options, post layouts, especially the compact view are really easy on the eyes, & great to scroll through quickly. I know there are some errors from time to time, & the odd glitch here & there, but thats something to be expected, given that Jerboa is still in its Alpha form.. Thanks for all you do, each iteration makes the experience, better & better..๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿผ

I love Jeroba too but it just crashes after loading so I have to use the web or Connect.

Same here, crashes instantly on Android 10 :'(

That might be because of backend API changes in Lemmy 0.18.0.

You may have to use the most recent version to get around this problem.

Why is that update to 0.0.35 (from my locally installed 0.0.34) not shown to me in Droid-ify? When I click on Jerboa in the installed list, it shows up in the list of versions at the bottom. The global list of Updates in Droid-ify is empty, however. Clicking/Spamming the "sync" button there does not help.

aah, found it - it uses a different signing key.

Likewise. I look forward to trying it out again later and hopefully update my rating to something more befitting.

Connect works, but the UI is definitely lacking.
