Free and open source, always a plus. No ads. Somewhat customizable, but could be better. The killer feature of this app is that you can see both the upvotes and downvotes separately rather than being combined. Edit 2/2024: They partially took away that feature. Runs only okay. But this is enou-- hold up, why was I giving this app 5*? It's quite unreliable. The website works more often, because this app fails when DDG App Tracking protection fails. Plus, it's hard to log into your account. Edited

Interested to try the app, but I cannot get anything to load. I am met with this error: "Value Error of type Java.lang.String cannot be converted to JSONObject". I have a Galaxy S10+ with the most recent OS.------------Okay, it seems like the server was just overloaded? I like the interface a lot. Similar to Reddit Sync. As far as I can tell, there is no way to create an account through the app, only login. Still, excited to give it a try. Edited

It had some issues when I first started using it in June '23, but many of those seem pretty ironed out now. This is honestly a fantastic Lemmy app. It even has an AMOLED black mode. The layout is familiar and easy to use. It doesn't do things as fancy as some of the other apps, but what it does, it does well.

Works great and was able to log into my lemmy.world instance. Has a few style options to choose from (I personally prefer the List view, very reminiscent of RIF) SOMETHING TO NOTE!!! when first installing it does not prompt you to login and finding the option is not obvious to the average user. You must press the top left menu button and press the words that say anonymous in order to start the login process. Hopefully this will be changed

Loving it so far! A few notes though, I'd love a link to the comments from the thumbnail preview. Having your default home page set as "subscribed" doesn't affect the app, it always reloads your "local" home page (This seems to be working now). I'd also love better gesture navigation (similar to Relay for reddit) and the ability to view videos/images and stuff as pip within the front page or post, instead of opening the link in its own page. Super excited to see where this app goes! Edited
