Like there is the Official Mastodon app for Mastodon, and Element app for Matrix, which app is considered the most official lemmy app for Android [possibly also for ios]

Or atleast, the app which supports most(if not all) the features available in Lemmy

Jerboa is the official Android app made by Lemmy's developers. Unfortunately it's a bit buggy and they don't have the time to focus on it because they're busy with the web version of Lemmy already. It's still very usable though.

Jerboa is notably not the official Lemmy app. It is made by the Lemmy developers, but they do not consider it to be any more official than any other Lemmy app.

Jebora seems to have this very annoying and deal breaking bug that makes it difficult for me to use it

Never ever experienced that in my massive whole maybe 2 months so far of using it... haha. I just wish I could block instances.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 11 months ago

none of them.

i've heard that jerboa is from the same devs as lemmy, if that is 'official' for you.

i personally use sync, but just because i've used it for reddit and i like the interface.

I’ve been pretty happy with Voyager.

Eternity is nice, it's a fork of Infinity the Reddit client.

I currently use it, it just doesnt seem to have notifications or it could be I messed up something

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Under 'Inbox' it shows Replies, Mentions and Messages. Seems to work okay here?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

It does, not push notifications when not using the app like Infinity for Reddit does

Ah sorry, mine does but I'm using graphene an android based but not directly android OS.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

Graphene isnt supposed to be a fork of Android?

If I tell you what I use you will start to cry in pain so I will save some sadness.

Connect isn't bad. They can't seem to get blur right (currently must have "NSFW" stamped on it) and sometimes a refresh causes some kind of weird looping of content, but beyond that it's stable and had good features.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

I'd say that you're going to get a good experience from Sync. He's constantly adding features to it that actually go above and beyond what Lemmy offers by default.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

There is no official app. Just try out apps until you find one that you like.

I'm using Liftoff.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

I am using Jerboa, still on alpha but good enough, devs seems working on it and spam updates every week.

Boost for Android is another option, eh?
