PieFed is its own project (similar to how Kbin/Mbin is a different project). It just implements ActivityPub, and is part of the threadiverse, but not a Lemmy instance.
Piefed is an entirely different software (“mbin”, a continuation of “kbin”) - speaks ActivityPub but is not a Lemmy API. Reading other comments in other posts, there’s one (and only one) app being mentioned as having beta support for Mbin (code, API) servers.

Wait… isn’t PieFed just an instance on the Lemmysphere? So if you have a Lemmy app for Android, it should automatically see PieFed, right…?
(oh boy, I hope that’s the case, because otherwise we got a major problem with the potential migration, yikes)
!interstellar@kbin.earth is available for both Android and iOS.
However, you don’t have to have a Piefed account to interact with a Piefed community, see this post: https://lemmy.zip/post/41125240
