There are at least five apps that I know of currently in development for iOS. Unfortunately neither Memmy nor Mlem able to connect to kbin at the moment, something to do with the kbin-specific API from what @ernest, @BrooklynMan, and @gkd have said. Kmoon is specifically being developed for kbin and is multi-platform for iOS and Android (no TestFlight betas on that just yet):

Artemis (Kmoon): https://kbin.social/m/ArtemisApp
Memmy: https://kbin.social/m/[email protected]
Mlem: https://kbin.social/m/[email protected]
Morpha: https://kbin.social/m/[email protected]
Thunder: https://kbin.social/m/[email protected]
Lemur: https://kbin.social/m/[email protected]/t/58630/I-am-working-on-a-new-lemmy-app-for-iOS

P.S. I don't use Android but have seen Jerboa mentioned quite often: https://kbin.social/m/[email protected]

I long for a kbin iOS app like Apollo. One can dream.

Shameless self promotion of the page I just published earlier today including this information (along with other stuff). However, I didn't have Kmoon, so I will add that!

I love how the first post on kmoon magazine is to join their discord. Ummmmmmm .... what?

@Jarmer To be fair Discord is excellent for dev community coordination

Is there some documentation on how to use the API? I understand the endpoint is at https//kbin.social/api but hitting https//kbin.social/api/magazines gives a 503.

@m3enzo You'd have to check with @ernest he did mention yesterday that "It's possible that we'll soon abandon the current API and integrate with one of the existing ones. I'm currently looking for the best solution.". @hariette who is the Kmoon dev is also on standby I believe for that same reason at the moment.

Thank you, I'll waiting for @ernest.

I am completely willing to work with whatever API gets put forth. I wasn't actually aware of this until reading your comment, so that would put me on standby as well until I hear back. It is certainly something that I am willing to do and support, just need to green light. @ernest

Why did you link to thunders unofficial store page instead of it's GitHub or Lemmy community?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Yep, here's the lemmy community and here's the github repo @frasassi
