Mlem for iOS has gotten a lot better.

Iโ€™m shocked that no one linked to this yet.

If you like smoothness and swipieness then you need to try Summit (Android).

It doesn't provide much value if you want to also moderate communities and all. It can a clean experience but it does lack a lot of basic features that are available on the web versions of any instances.

Have tried all of the iOS ones, and Beans is by far the best!

For iPhone, you can testflight Mlem or Memmy and, although I prefer Memmy, they're both pretty great. I'd definitely give them a try.

2 months later and there's still not a satisfying answer. I would have hoped 1 or 2 apps would have risen to the top by now, but it's still just a scattershot of people suggesting like 8-10 different ones. There's no consensus.

I don't want to download an app and get all set up only for development on it to suddenly halt. Then I'd either have to switch again, or be stuck with one that's forever missing features.

Too many new apps popped up in too short of time. Some of them are bound to fail or be abandoned. Some of them are likely to have been hacked together by amateurs and contain gaping security or functionality flaws.

Does anyone have a suggestion with more substance than "I like this app because it's the one I downloaded"?
