None exist currently as Kbin itself is fairly new
Artemis is in development, which is based on the reddit app Apollo
https://kbin.social/m/ArtemisAppand KBAM was just announced

Kbin itself, unlike Lemmy, has no API yet for apps. Without that apps in development like Arthemis have to depend on scraping the website internally.
Artemis uses its own API which scrapes kbin. This is only temporary until an official kbin API is available.
When a API is established, it will be much easier to develop apps for this service, like it is for Lemmy already.

Net yet, they are on the way.
Till then the kbin mobile site works well as a PWA, even better if you install these scripts:

The website.
Why does everyone want an app?
-
Because the website is missing key features, bookmarking posts, collapsible comments, never ending feeds and comments, being able to expand images without opening the post first, uniform interface, and less download when loading posts. It allows for a more fluid and uniform experience.
-
The people at !kbinStyles@kbin.social have been putting together a package of userscripts that address some of that in the Web UI on the client side.
