### 5/5 — Best support from developers

*2026-03-06*

This is the best option for a mobile app for Lemmy and PieFed simply because the developers are very responsive to issues and feature requests.

### 5/5 — The only Piefed client that's better than the web version

*2025-12-02*

Very opinionated Lemmy/Piefed app. Not a lot of customization settings, but I like that. It has a distinctive ux and it's beautiful.

### 3/5 — Reader mode bug?

*2025-11-18*

Really love this app but I can't find a way to stop it from opening every link in safari reader mode. Makes the app unusable for me.

### 5/5 — Great Client!

*2025-10-22*

This is a great free client for both Lemmy and PieFed. The dev is very responsive. He implements suggestions and fixes bugs quickly. Lots of settings to tailor it to your needs. 

Give this one a try!

### 5/5 — Fantastic Piefed App with a very responsive dev

*2025-10-14*

I have been using Blorp off and on since shortly after its release. It has grown so much. The dev is really responsive to feed back and bug reports.

### 5/5 — New client with active developer

*2025-10-14*

My original client of choice was Arctic, but as development on it came to a halt, I opted for Blorp among the alternatives for supporting both Lemmy and Piefed and having an active developer. With a clean UI with multiple post layout options to suit user preference, multi-account support, and several supported platforms, I expect the app to only get better and better with each coming update. 👍

### 5/5 — HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

*2025-10-13*

Solid, fast and easy to use. Supports Piefed and Lemmy. 

- Create user tags and manage your block list within the Blorp app. 
- Create and save unfinished posts 
- Update your profile: change your profile pic, bio 
- effortlessly switch between accounts 
- View storage cache on app 
- “Left hand” mode available 
- Blorp support! There’s an actual dev team (humans, not bots) that you can reach out to if you have questions, issues or requests. Seriously, this not a joke. 

For those who are interested, Blorp app is backwards compatible. I was pleasantly surprised to find that Blorp works well on my old iPhone. 

So, a big THANK YOU to the dev team for making this possible (not all devs are willing to do this).

### 1/5 — Won’t log in

*2025-10-08*

Accepts my user/password, but doesn’t log me into the piefed instance I’m on.

**Developer response:** We would love to get this resolved! You can find our support community on Lemmy/PieFed (search for Blorp). Sorry for the trouble.

### 5/5 — Must have for PieFed

*2025-09-22*

Clean, simple and user-friendly design. No need to look for hamburger, ellipsis or arrows to comment on post because it’s already on the bottom of the page. 

Add image to your comment or upload your avatar right on the app (that was my favorite). Fast search, user tags, etc. 

Most of all, the dedicated dev team is responsive to inquiries; app in active development. Also available for iPad and as a PWA. 

Works great on Lemmy, too.

### 5/5 — Not a bad client supporting lemmy and piefed

*2025-08-01*

I DO NOT RECCOMEND IT OVER ANY OTHE CLIENT* 

If you just want a client to use thats opinionated in that there isn't much customization and it's set up a specific way to use,  it's a pretty solid default setup.  I'm going with another lemmy app personally, but this one isn't bad at all.

Got piefed support, one of the few that supports both, they same to be actively developing it.

One thing that needs to be adressed is when replying to a post/comment it takes over your whole screen, in any other app you can scroll and view comments and the post while commenting/replying

**Developer response:** Thanks for the kind words! If you list out the usability stuff, I'd be happy to make those improvements where I can.
