Announcing Linkwarden for iOS & Android - Lemmy.World

Hello everyone, Before we talk about today’s announcement, let’s take a moment to appreciate what this community has built together. What started as a project to preserve webpages and articles has quietly grown into Linkwarden [https://linkwarden.app/], a tool used by researchers, journalists, and knowledge collectors all over the world. As we’ve grown, the Linkwarden community has helped us reach: - 16,000+ GitHub stars - 11M+ Docker downloads - Thousands of self-hosted instances running in different companies, universities, agencies, and homelabs - A thriving ecosystem of contributors, donors, and Cloud subscribers keeping the project sustainable None of this would’ve happened without you. Thank you! 🚀 Today, we’re excited to launch something you’ve been asking for since the very beginning: the official Linkwarden mobile app, now available on iOS [https://apps.apple.com/app/linkwarden/id6752550960] and Android [https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=app.linkwarden]. Different screens (iPad, Pixel, and iPhone) [https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/e83ee0ec-f83b-4d66-8878-17ca5848188c.png] Here are the highlights so far: 🧩 Create, organize, and browse your links: A native, mobile-first experience with collections, tags, and powerful search. 📤 Save links directly from the share sheet: Send interesting articles from the browser or any other app straight into Linkwarden, no copy-paste required. 📚 Cached data for offline reading: Catch up on long reads, articles, or saved blog posts when you’re away from Wi-Fi. ☁️ Works with Linkwarden Cloud and self-hosted: Use the same app whether you’re on Linkwarden Cloud or your own self-hosted instance, just point it at your server and sign in. 📱 Built for different screen sizes: Supports iOS / iPadOS, and Android (phones and tablets). 🔜 And more coming soon: This first release is just the foundation, expect many improvements and new features soon. ## Get the app To use the app you’ll first need a Linkwarden account (version v2.13+ recommended). You can choose between: - Linkwarden Cloud [https://linkwarden.app/#pricing] – instant setup, and your subscription directly supports ongoing development. - Self-hosted Linkwarden [https://docs.linkwarden.app/self-hosting/installation] – free, but you’ll need to deploy and maintain a Linkwarden instance on a server. After creating an account, download the app from your preferred store: App Store [https://apps.apple.com/app/linkwarden/id6752550960] Google Play [https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=app.linkwarden] ## How you can support Linkwarden Linkwarden exists because of people like you. Other than using our official Cloud [https://linkwarden.app/#pricing] offering and dontations [https://opencollective.com/linkwarden], here are the other ways to help us grow and stay sustainable: - Leaving a review on App Store [https://apps.apple.com/app/linkwarden/id6752550960] or Google Play [https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=app.linkwarden] - Starring our repository on GitHub [https://github.com/linkwarden/linkwarden] - Joining us and sharing your setup on Reddit [https://www.reddit.com/r/Linkwarden/] - Joining us on Discord [https://discord.com/invite/CtuYV47nuJ] - Telling a friend or colleague about Linkwarden Thank you for being part of this community. 💫

Just deployed it. So nice, much better than what I was using. Thank you so very much.

Well hello there.
Will the Android app be released outside of Google Play?
Will post the link to the APK on Mastodon/Bluesky/Twitter as soon as it’s is ready.

Thanks.

No US corporate crap on my devices.

Great work, amazing application 😊
Can you link the mobile app github repos? Are they the community projects linked in the readme or are they somewhere else?

Here it is: github.com/linkwarden/linkwarden/tree/…/mobile

Badass! iOS app looks and works great!
How does this compare to mymind? I really really wanna stop paying for something I can absolutely self host especially since I have all the hardware and setup mostly done already with other things I selfhost.
good job. 🥳
