I love Mlem and wefwef.app so far. I’ve seen a lot of people mention Memmy but I haven’t really used it yet.
What do you like to use for mobile Lemmy?

Love Memmy but started using wefwef and have started to prefer that. Feels 100% like Apollo to me.
Wefwef will be called Voyager as of the next version (so following the current 0.17).
Oh thank god
I was having some issues with wefwef with things like saving posts but that seems to be fixed now, which is good!
It does feel exactly like Apollo which is why I’ve been using it haha
I also find it pretty cool, being a web app!
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using an URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !mlemapp@lemmy.ml
Decided to try liftoff and so far I’m liking it. Might have to try out a few others to see how they compare though
I second Liftoff, though I’m honestly just using it while I wait for Boost to get its Lemmy port. It’s pretty fully-featured and I haven’t had any technical issues with it.
Only gripe really is that the UI is a little obtuse in some very specific areas.
Mlem and Memmy for me, Memmy is pulling ahead lately for me
Memmy doesn’t seem to show all of the same posts I get on wefwef/Voyager so I don’t use it much anymore. Not sure what the issue is there but wefwef is getting pretty close to the Apollo experience so I’m enjoying that
Can’t say I’ve had the same but yes wefwef is excellent
Memmy won’t upvote comments for me. Does it work for you?
Yes, go to your user profile, edit account > tap the password field and then tap save. That will force the app to re-auth you and your feed and votes should resume working.
Took me a little bit to nail that issue down
On Android, so don’t have access to some of the popular iOS ones.
Right now, I’m switching around between web, Jerboa, and Thunder. Liftoff is great as well, but I’m not really vibing with it as much as the others.
Thunder is sleek, but missing some features that Jerboa and Liftoff have.
Jerboa currently feels like the one which is most “feature-rich”, but it doesn’t like my keyboard (OpenBoard) for some reason. It’s an open issue on their GitHub, but don’t know if there will be a fix anytime soon.(*)
To be fair, none really feel like “home” yet. They feel like a stopgap until something that works better for me comes around.
As much as I don’t like using closed source stuff, considering I’d been using Sync for almost a decade until it shut down, I’ll probably give that a shot regardless, because I fully trust the dev (even if I had minor disagreements with some design choices here and there).
Hopefully, I’ll find myself feeling more comfortable once that has taken some time to grow.
Considering I was always on the Sync beta branch, I might as well test it out early if I can.
(*) I’m actually hoping OpenBoard gets a proper fork soon because its devs have disappeared and it’s got PRs which have been waiting to be merged for ages. Someone threw together a quick fork merging the major PRs a few days ago and I need to test it. Maybe that’ll fix my keyboard issue with Jerboa, I don’t know. Still, the user who forked it has been pretty clear that they’re not sure if they can maintain a separate project longterm, so we’ll have to see if anything happens there.
Jerboa […] doesn’t like my keyboard (OpenBoard) for some reason.
Jerboa’s text editing is horribly broken even with the stock LineageOS (Android) keyboard. I don’t know what nonsense it’s doing, but it’s not just you.
Good to know it’s not just that keyboard. I wonder what the cause is because it seems to work fine with the Samsung keyboard and SwiftKey (I don’t use them, but I needed to test something else out and decided to do the same with Jerboa).
Some of the markdown editing is still off, but it wasn’t doing the “just delete random words and merge words together when backspacing” thing.
Maybe it’s something to do with the AOSP keyboard, since both the LineageOS stock one and OpenBoard are based on it (I think).

Yeah, I actually have it installed as well. Maybe I’ll try it with Jerboa.
Gives me issues on its own, though. Autocorrect is particularly annoying, and it’s been a noted in two open issues, both started over two years ago:
https://github.com/AnySoftKeyboard/AnySoftKeyboard/issues/1684
https://github.com/AnySoftKeyboard/AnySoftKeyboard/issues/2821
Wish that would get sorted. Especially the “im” to “I’m” thing.
Liftoff on Android works pretty well.
Jerboa! Picked that since it’s from the Lemmy devs.
Connect at the moment. I plan on switching to Boost when it’s available, but Connect has been really good so far!
+1 for connect, I was originally on Jerboa but it crashed so dang often. I like that switching accounts is easy, makes it a breeze to have my general interests Beehaw account and my niche interests account and swap between them
Mobile? I use wefwef both for mobile and desktop funnily enough. Yes the buttons are built for touchscreen, but it’s comfy for me and less cluttered and I see the images without having to click on them and just ignore it if it’s something useless rather than click it, wait and then scroll down. And it makes where it came from more obvious, its a great alternative for both desktop and mobile.
The bad thing? Is that it’s a web-shortcut. Not a built-in app for your OS (iOS/Android). That’s bad because what if you want to tell your friend to download it? Well … there are some steps before they put it as a shortcut to their homescreen or search for it and go to settings.
Been using Memmy and it’s pretty nice so far.
Liftoff on Android and Memmy on my iPad. These are close to the experiences of Sync and Apollo.
I use Firefox Nightly Android with Stylus alongside this userstyle I made: https://userstyles.world/style/10233/zettajon-1440p-and-darkmode-supported-lemmy
How are you all using apps without issue? I have Connect, Liftoff and Jerboa, and with all of them I can’t seem to comment. I get messages that I need to log-in, or that my votes don’t register, or some crazy code (as in coder) that covers my entire screen. This doesn’t happen with Lemm.ee, only Beehaw. It’s honestly super frustrating and has hampered my engagement within Beehaw.
Connect for Lemmy on Android. It looks nice and has clickable usernames/community names in feeds, a good community search function, keyword-based post blocking, and community/user/instance blocking.
I flip between a Progressive Web App, Thunder, Jerboa, and Liftoff on Mobile (Android). I’ve been spending most of my time in Thunder, but each method is missing just a couple features that others cover which are occasionally useful.
You should try Connect. It’s the best one for me, until Sync for Lemmy drops.
