Use loops the fediverse version. which has ~~Android and~~ iPhone app and ofc doesn’t have ads. Made by same guy who made pixelfed the Instagram alternative. Fuck the mega corps and their privacy invading and political manipulation!

Here’s the Lemmy communities for it !loops@midwest.social !loops@lemmy.world

Can you share where to find the android app? I can't see it in the play store or fdroid

Whoops I was wrong sorry 😢 I’m on iPhone and there’s an app so I presumed it already had an android app that was even further along. Surprised they have iPhone first (yes I have iPhone after always having android)

There is an android version distributed on github, but it's no longer listed on the loops.video page anymore for some reason.

The android app is on GitHub here. Version 1.0.0.9 from 15 November. Seems they are either no longer developing the android app, or at least prioritizing the iOS version.

I signed up and got an email with a link to the apk. I'd share, but it looks like it's personalized to my email maybe? and it doesn't work anymore

Not sure where I got it, but for android you have to install it from the apk. I can't log in right now, so it might show up on the site when you sign up and get your invite.
