iOS App for Friendica?


So many people are looking for alternatives to Meta products right now, but the barrier to entry to Fediverse social networks remains too high for most users, especially those still active on legacy platforms like Facebook. A specific pain-point I am encountering in trying to assist folks in making the leap is the lack of mobile clients for iOS users. Are there any plans for an iOS app for Friendica? Or an iOS version of a multi-account manager like Fedilab?

@Sarah Peck There's Relatica. But it's still an early, closed beta. You can't load it from the App Store just like so. You'll have to join the Relatica Beta Test Program.

Otherwise, it's either Friendica in a browser or installing Friendica as a Progressive Web App from the browser.

Regrettably, not a prank. πŸ˜₯ I definitely recognize the sub-optimal user experience; I just also know how desperate folks are to divest from Meta, and this is the closest thing I could find to something Facebook-like. Pixelfed is far more user-friendly, but it's limited to photo sharing. Mastodon has multi-media capabilities but lacks some of the features I find useful here.
