Leave a Review Toot! for Mastodon
Am I Shallow?
I love this app because it just works. Still, it’s the animations and the adorable icon that bring me back to open it over and over. I’m still getting used to Mastodon, but the program seems pretty robust in that one can open other feds(?). Keep up the good work. I rarely, rarely review.kadymac
The Best Social App on iOS
Toot! is the most beautiful social app I've ever seen, both in functionality and visual design - and I've seen a lot. I've been using it as my primary mobile Mastodon client since November 2018. It's colorful, smooth, clever, and has rarely - if ever - crashed. I wish I could use it for Twitter, to be honest. It's not just the best Mastodon app right now - it's the best social app, period.Show lessNeoYokel
Alright app with slightly batty devs
It does it’s job well, in fact it’s probably my favorite client app thus far. However while I do appreciate the option they included to “”Filter Awful Survers, filter out any toot originating from a white supremacist server. (Currently, only Gab.)”” I personally dislike how it’s automatically selected. It almost felt as if they were trying to parent us and say what we are and aren’t allowed to view using the app. I would have rated this app higher if it weren’t for them quite literally pushing their views (That you can turn off after going through the settings.) onto us. Perhaps in the future they’ll learn to consider others (However wrong) opinions and turn off the ‘automatic’ setting. Maybe just a pop-up notification would show when we first start the app that says something like “If you want to limit seeing Toots from offensive servers you can turn on a “Filter Awful Servers” option.Show lessDwightner
Best mastodon client right now
After trying many others Toot! is the most polished mastodon client out there, since Tootdon went down. The feature to view the timelines of other servers without logging in is actually extremely usefuleskimorider
Complete, anti-fascist Mastodon app
This app is user-friendly and has all the features I need to use mastodon. I didn’t get it at first because I’m very broke but when the first app I was using left the App Store I decided to spring for it and I’m glad I did. It’s customizable, you can log in to multiple instances at once, and I love that it blocks Gab. I hope it continues to be as accessible and hate-free as possible. The only suggestions I would have would be: 1) add custom emojis. I know this has been requested previously and I’m pretty sure the developers said it might happen eventually but it really would be awesome to be able to access my instance’s emojis from the app! Also, 2) this is small but allow access to a user’s media tab within the app. If this is a feature I haven’t figured it out yet. Please keep up the good work!Show lessKat567H
Fantastic!
I've been loving how solid this app is—while it doesn't have all the same features that the web client does just yet, I've found this app to be the most reliable iOS client for Mastodon. Being able to choose the toot load order as I scroll is an especially appreciated feature.
Some feature requests:
- Icon indicating if media is a GIF/video/audio (there is no way to differentiate these currently)
- Dark, or black and white, minimal icon choice (This is the tiniest of things, but I personally always prefer to have things in black and white)
- Update trans friend icon to be a higher-res icon (on iPad Pro, it looks super low-resolution!)
- Retain scroll position of timeline(s) on all devicesShow lessSomniusTiger
Some issues with Voiceover.
I use the voiceover screenreader on my phone. When I tap on the button to make a new toot, nothing happens. Also, when I go to check my notifications, voiceover reads them, but it won’t read who they’re from. If you could look into these issues I’d really appreciate it. Thank you.
All that aside, the app is pretty cool. I already like it more than the other app I’ve been using.Show lessAllycat86
Best app for Mastodon I’ve tried!!
I’ve tried so many apps and this one has the most going for it! Definitely worth the purchase, especially considering I am online like every day
Pros:
-Easy to switch between accounts on different instances once you set it up
-The user interface is super cute and easy to switch between the different themes
-CWs work great and are continuous
-You can add image descriptions when you post a picture
-You can turn off the “include @ of the person who boosted” when you reply to a post
-Filters actually work! Big plus
-You can see and vote in polls
Cons:
-No options for adding custom emojis to posts (but I already have the short codes for my instance memorized so not too big of a deal)
-Not exactly endless scrolling to older posts, but you can just click “show more”Show lesslvela008
A great Mastodon client which prioritizes the comfort and safety of its users
The Mastodon social network is a great place to interact with people (especially fellow members of marginalized communities), but like any federated form of social media it is difficult to prevent certain people from trying to make it unsafe. I am glad that Toot! uses a bunch of approaches to keep its users safe, such as making it easy to switch instances, being respectful of post privacy settings, and making it possible to avoid interactions with people through the blocking system. There are also some great quality-of-life features like the zen “relax” mode and some fun Easter eggs, and the developer is incredibly responsive to bug reports and feature requests.
This app makes Mastodon a delight to use. My only complaints would be that it’s a bit harder than necessary to tune which notifications come up on my lock screen.Show lessfluffy <3
Fun
Not only is Toot a great Mastodon client it’s just a lot of fun to use. It’s been very solid, easy to use, and it’s fast. It has a nice set of themes to suit your styling needs and even lets you adjust them. The attention to detail is superb and the animations for boosting a post and creating new posts are smooth and fun to watch. An all around solid app. Highly recommended.Show lessRob Fahrni
