I’ve been using Mlem and the latest update seemingly has an Apollo inspiration behind it. I will probably be sticking with it— in fact, it’s now in the place on my home screen where Apollo has sat for 7 years. Really sad to have to do that but Reddit is now effectively dead to me.

Nicely done! 👏
Wefwef and thunder. Thunder is really fast.
Just downloaded Thunder, but is seems to have the same issue on iPad as Memmy, where image/web previews are reduced down to a short and wide slit of the image. wefwef is the best for iPad that I’ve used so far.
Edit: scrap that, there is a setting on Thunder to view full height images.
It’s not ios specific but I’m using wefwef and it’s great.
Olympus for Lemmy also has a TestFlight beta (works currently only for iOS 17 Dev Beta)
There are some more apps announced (Artemis, Beyond)
You can check it out here in the iOS section
Thank you! I wasn't aware there's already a post for this. I'll add this link to the post.
I love Memmy
Arctic was released on the AppStore and the TestFlight gets weekly updates and it’s really great.
Memmy, Avelon and Bean seem to have been abandoned.
It almost seems like the only apps (other than purely web-based ones) that are still being developed for iOS are Arctic, Mlem, Thunder, and Voyager.
Edit: And Lemma had a pretty big update recently, too. I should include them as well.
Not able to connect to wefwef today. Says safari cannot establish a secure connection. Not sure if anyone else seeing this. On mobile.
Wefwef isn’t as stable as Apollo :/
It’s not wefwef but the instance you joined getting overwhelmed as people move to Lemmy (and particularly lemmy.world)
Aah that’s a good point.
@[email protected], this stickied post could probably use some love, or you might just want to remove the sticky pin. Some of these Apps no longer exist. Example: Memmy.
Thanks! I've updated it a little just by quickly going through the communities. Also lifted the link to lemmyapps up so users won't miss it. Let me know if there's anything I've missed!

Mlem and Liftoff have been solid
A lot of these logos for lemmy apps should steer clear of animal based logos imho, feel like it won’t be as compatible with mainstream.
This is the post we needed!
Helpful. Thank you!
Mlem has really come along the last few weeks — looks nice now. And definitely more of an Apollo vibe. I checked out of it (and left the TestFlight) once the dev announced it was abandoned but it’s clearly back now.
And I’m back to using it now since Memmy doesn’t support post deletions yet and a Lemmy server hiccup resulted in a double post. Solid app now
I personally use Lemma. Great app, still in TestFlight but very promising
I'm switching over from android to iOS next week. Can sometime please share an app that I can install via Play Store?
Thunder
