For this, you would need the version 0.0.34 of the Jerboa app. Now follow these steps.

  • Install Jerboa v0.0.34
  • Turn off your wifi and data connection or else the app would crash after trying to load anything from any Lemmy instances.
  • Go to the log in page off the app.
  • Give your Lemmy server address, username and password.
  • Turn on your WiFi/data connection.
  • Touch the log in button. You would be logged in to the app shortly and use the app.

If you wish, you can update the app. You will get a warning as the version is too low but you would still be logged in.

    I’ve not had any issue logging into any instance with Jerboa. You literally just put the instance in and your login details. Sometimes I’ve had to use my email rather than username, but I think that’s more due to case sensitivity.

      I was talking about this problem.

      Everytime you would try to log in to the Jerboa app, you will get this error and the app would not net you sign in. It may look like you have signed in but if you reopen the app, you would see that there aren’t any account signed into the app.

        Nah I dunno, maybe because I’d already signed in before the upgrade today I’ve not had the issue.

        Others have said that it does sign you in even in spite of this. However if not, I guess you’re SOL until v0.18 becomes adpoted. Even then, I know lemm.ee isn’t going to be updating because of the lack of captcha, and I wouldn’t be surprised if others are holding off also. In which case it might not be until 0.18.1 comes along.
