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.

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

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.

[–] Snoopy@piefed.social 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Thank for your post :D

The wiki is still a new sprout, there is lot room for improvements. :)

If you want to edit the wiki, ping me :)

[–] wakest@piefed.social 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I made a few posts in communities for other Lemmy clients to see if any of them are interested in also supporting Piefed, it might be cool to make a table to track support requests for ones that would be down but haven't started the work yet and would accept PRs

[–] Snoopy@piefed.social 1 points 2 weeks ago

Just sent me their links

wiki page

Hold up, piefed has community wiki pages now?

[–] wjs018@piefed.social 1 points 2 weeks ago

Yep! Community moderators on piefed can maintain a wiki for their community. The 1.2 release that just came out has a couple improvements to the wiki to help with markdown styling to make it more closely match markdown rendering elsewhere on the site.

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

[–] wakest@piefed.social 4 points 3 weeks ago

I see it in the github issues, added!

[–] nokturne213@sopuli.xyz 4 points 3 weeks ago

They have been for a while now.

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 11 points 3 weeks ago

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

[–] wjs018@piefed.social 10 points 3 weeks ago

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

[–] sk1nnym1ke@piefed.social 5 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Do the notifications work on PWA?

[–] INeedMana@piefed.zip 4 points 3 weeks ago
[–] julian@activitypub.space 2 points 2 weeks ago

I notice nobody responded to you... yes notifications work fine on PWAs. No additional apps required.

NodeBB has supported them for a couple years, and Piefed can do so with some effort too. rimu@piefed.social happy to discuss how we did it — all standard web tools!

I am not 100% sure there is iOS support, though. Supposedly there is, but we got some reports saying otherwise.

[–] ThorrJo@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 3 weeks ago

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

[–] OpenStars@piefed.social 9 points 3 weeks 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.

[–] scytale@piefed.zip 10 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

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 3 weeks 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 3 weeks 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 3 weeks ago (1 children)

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

[–] OpenStars@piefed.social 1 points 3 weeks ago

Sounds great! 👍

[–] atomicpoet@piefed.social 8 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

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

[–] wakest@piefed.social 3 points 3 weeks ago
[–] moseschrute@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

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

[–] moseschrute@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks 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:

We eatin good fam

[–] end0fline@piefed.social 3 points 3 weeks 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.

[–] Blaze@lemmy.zip 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)
[–] jwr1@kbin.earth 6 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

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 weeks ago

Good to know! Thanks for the update.

[–] mesamunefire@piefed.social 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Everyone knows the best way to view piefed is links2 ;)

Awesome list!

[–] wakest@piefed.social 1 points 2 weeks ago

Can you post a picture of what it looks like in links2
