Jerboa is a native-android client for Lemmy, built using the native android framework, Jetpack Compose.

Warning: You can submit issues, but between Lemmy and lemmy-ui, I probably won't have too much time to work on them. Learn jetpack compose like I did if you want to help make this app better.

I have never received receieved notifications through the usual notifications at the top of the screen, does the app not do that or is it my phone? I have to open Jerboa to see that I got either a reply or a message.

I use the F-Droid version of Jerboa on GrapheneOS 13.

There's no push notifications in Jerboa.

On /e/, Jerboa never gives me notifications, thought it's just because that isn't implemented yet

Well, that explains things 🙂

I don't think Jerboa supports 'native notifications' which means it relies on other services (such as Google Play Services) in order to push notifications to your phone. Some applications (such as Fairmail, F-Droid) don't rely on Google's services and use the OS's native notification abilities.
