Which Android app would you recommend for Lemmy? I'm looking for something simple, something I can just scroll through while I'm bored. Doesn't have to be on google's store.

Voyager for the lulz. But honestly it's what I use on both platforms.

I just think it's so funny that Apollo was iOS only and the developer said it would never come to Android. Voyager is based on Apollo (I think the Apollo source was posted when the app was blocked by Reddit) and it works just fine on Android. I guess because the source was posted and people who care were able to port it. But as far as I can tell it looks and feels like a native iOS app (that was the design goal of Apollo)... on Android. Then again, my Android TV has AirPlay built in, and when you go into the AirPlay settings, Apple's design language is all over it. We think of Apple/iOS and Google/Android as polar opposites and bitter rivals, but the truth is, they sometimes work together (beyond Google paying Apple millions to keep their search default on iOS). And the two design languages are, not only "just that", but also not mutually exclusive to one another.
