I built AniSync, a fast Material You AniList client for Android
Hey everyone!
I’ve been pouring a lot of time into AniSync lately. It’s a native, open-source Android client for AniList that is completely free of ads and trackers. The app has been out for a little while, but I’ve recently added a ton of new features that I think make it worth sharing with you all.
I wanted to build something that feels premium, so here are a few standout features. I’m particularly proud of that you won't easily find in other clients:
- Full Rich Keyboard Support: Drop GIFs, stickers, or Emoji Kitchen creations straight into comments and activity replies. Whatever your keyboard throws at it, the app handles it seamlessly.
- Built-in Media Uploading: Skip the manual hosting dance. You can pick an image, video, or GIF and upload it straight to Catbox or Litterbox (for temporary hosting) without ever leaving the app. The link is automatically inserted for you.
- Dynamic Material You Theming: Instead of just defaulting to your system wallpaper, the app offers a set of other color palettes to choose from.
- Home Screen Widgets: Keep track of what you're currently watching right from your home screen (built with Glance).
- Under-the-Hood Perks: Built-in Media3 player for seamless media previews.
What's Next? You tell me :)
Right now, AniSync is Android only (Min SDK 26). I’m thinking about porting it to Kotlin Multiplatform (KMP) down the line, but no promises just yet!
If you practically live on AniList, I would absolutely love your feedback. Feel free to drop any bugs or feature requests on the .
