The /c/fediverse mod has been maintaining this wiki page with the same info https://piefed.social/community/fediverse/wiki/piefed-app although this post is more visible, so I've stickied it.

thanks! I was just testing them all out and made the list for myself and thought I would share it, I hadn't seen this other wiki list.

oh I didn't see they are supporting piefed now!

[–] nokturne213@sopuli.xyz 3 points 5 days ago

They have been for a while now.

[–] wakest@piefed.social 3 points 5 days ago

I see it in the github issues, added!

I'd also like to propose an alternative, and that's installing Piefed as a PWA by creating a shortcut to your phone's homescreen or installing as an app on desktop, at which point it will run like an app.

It works quiet well and has become my primary way of using it. People tend to sleep on PWAs, but they're great. :D

[–] rimu@piefed.social 10 points 5 days ago

That's what I do too. It has all the latest PieFed-specific features and consumes basically no space on my phone.

This is my primary way of using piefed. There are a number of improvements for mobile-sized screens coming in the 1.2 update.

Do the notifications work on PWA?

[–] cloudless@piefed.social 2 points 4 days ago

I do that too with the exception when I want to add images to a comment, then I have to use Voyager. Because PieFed doesn’t support image upload in comments yet. I believe it will be added in the upcoming version.

[–] ThorrJo@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 5 days ago

Hrm, I wonder if I can do that with Akkoma 🤔

[–] end0fline@piefed.social 3 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I guess this would be an OK place to ask since I couldn’t find an update anywhere else. Did the creator stop working on the Piefed compatible version of Interstellar? It’s not in the iOS App Store and the Test Flight version no longer works.

Intestellar is still compatible with PieFed and will have some updates in the next release. The release itself has taken a while, but is planned to be released hopefully next week. The reason the test flight no longer works is that they have a 90-day expiration on each release.

[–] end0fline@piefed.social 1 points 3 days ago

Good to know! Thanks for the update.

[–] atomicpoet@piefed.social 7 points 5 days ago (2 children)

At least where I live, Blorp is on the App Store.

I think the only country missing is France. But I think I can actually update the app listing to include France.

[–] moseschrute@lemmy.world 4 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

Thanks for including Blorp. Blorp can also be downloaded on:

If you pick either Google Play Beta or TestFlight, you can provide direct feedback to me via our Matrix group (https://matrix.to/#/#blorp:matrix.org). Even if you don't join beta, feel free to join Matrix.

Blorp will support PieFed flairs very soon. You can preview what flairs will look like below:

[–] OpenStars@piefed.social 7 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Thunder I believe won't support PieFed until the next update. The current version that I see in the Play Store was last updated in June 26, 2025 and does not mention PieFed.

You can download a version with that functionality (I've heard, though I do not recall where), but that is not the version 0.73 that is currently in the Play Store.

So you may want to annotate it as coming soon rather than fully here already.

The beta version on IOS testflight already has piefed support. It doesn’t support all features yet, but general functionality (posting, commenting, etc.) already works.

[–] wakest@piefed.social 3 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I am using the beta on android too and its working really well, surprised how much already works perfectly...

[–] OpenStars@piefed.social 2 points 4 days ago (1 children)

That's great but if someone were to click your download link, I don't see a version that supports PieFed, so I was trying to help avoid confusion by mentioning that so it could hopefully be clarified.

[–] wakest@piefed.social 2 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Ok I'll change the link to go to just the beta version

[–] OpenStars@piefed.social 1 points 4 days ago

Sounds great! 👍
