## What is Indigo for Bluesky & Mastodon?

Indigo is a brand new app that combines Bluesky and Mastodon into a single, unified timeline. 

It can be tough to keep up with your social circles when they’re not all in one place, but Indigo makes it a breeze. 

Indigo has a modern user interface that helps make common interactions faster and less disruptive, doing its best to provide you all the information you need, without getting in your way. Here’s some of the things we focused on:


CROSS POSTING
Indigo lets you post to Bluesky and Mastodon simultaneously so none of your followers misses a thing you post. It’s fast, simple and lets you add alt-text without having to change views. 


TIMELINE
Indigo’s timeline combines your Bluesky and Mastodon timeline into a single feed, with subtle indicators for which service a post is coming from. The goal is for you to forget about the technical underpinnings and just enjoy all the people you follow in one place.

Indigo automatically detects when two accounts you follow are posting the same thing across both services and combines them into a single post, so you don’t have to read everything twice.


POST DETAILS
Indigo features an innovative new approach to post detail views that automatically detects threads, making them easier to read all at once. And you can quickly tap the thread ribbon to view all the replies to a given post. 

You can also quick reply to posts without changing views too. 


NOTIFICATIONS
Indigo’s Notification view shows you all your notifications from both services in one place. Mentions, Replies, and Quotes are highlighted while Favs and Reposts are grouped together to reduce clutter. 


CONVERSATIONS
Indigo supports Bluesky’s direct messages and also provides a conversation interface to Mastodon private posts. 


PLATFORMS
Indigo runs on iPhone, iPad, and Mac, so you can stay up to date on whatever device suits you best. Your accounts are synced, as is your timeline position, so jumping between devices is seamless. There’s no Apple Watch support, because no one should be reading social media on their watch and there’s no Vision Pro support because they’re stupidly expensive.

PRICING
Indigo is free to download and try out, but interacting with posts and creating posts requires payment. Our premium tier is called Ultraviolet and has monthly, annual and one-time purchase options. 

Prices are regional, based on a purchasing power index and are based on the US prices, which are:
$4.99 per month
$34.99 per year
$119.99 one-time purchase

Please note that the one time purchase may not include all future features in perpetuity as ongoing and that the services, Bluesky and Mastodon, may change what features are available without notice.

————

We’ve been working on Indigo for quite a while now, and we’re very proud of how it’s turned out. That said, there are a million features we had to leave out of this first release, but we’re very exited to add more features and functionality as quickly as we can.

### 5/5 — Das hat wirklich Potential

*2026-08-24*

Ein Tag mit Indigo und man sieht ja zuerst das, was einem fehlt:
Gern würde ich meine Listen auf Mastodon auch in Indigo bearbeiten und neue Gefolgte einsortieren können. Und der zu große, graue Preview-Platzhalter mit dem Safarikompass für fehlende Link-Vorschaubilder stört das geschmeidige Gesamtbild (toll gelöst hingegen der Audio-Player). Aber das wird sicher alles noch werden.
Ich muss sagen, dass ich sehr beeindruckt bin: Die Oberfläche funkelt, die benötigten Features sind rasch gefunden, die Crosspostings zusammengefasst und die Timeline lädt zuverlässig. Wie es scheint, alles mit Sinn und Verstand platziert. Für mich, die ich Bluesky und Mastodon gleichermaßen nutze, ist diese App ein Gamechancer.

### 4/5 — Good app in many ways, but —

*2026-08-06*

The “paired profiles” feature, without any permission from me, incorrectly paired literally dozens of people I follow with one another, people who absolutely are not the same person, nor do they resemble each other in any way. It’s comically bad. 

Until and unless it actually works, there should be a clear way to simply disable this feature wholesale.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback Patrick. You can swipe on incorrectly paired profiles to remove them. And we’re working on a system for manual pairing in the next update.

### 5/5 — Great app for filtering Reddit and very responsive developer

*2026-07-26*

The app does what it does very well and the developer is very responsive to feature requests.

### 5/5 — Incredible Consolidated Bluesky/Mastodon Reader

*2026-07-13*

If you read Bluesky and Mastodon this app is incredible. Smart design choices and optimized for iOS and iPadOS. I moved from a competing product after it kept losing the timeline position and struggled over the last month maintaining Bluesky authentication.

### 5/5 — Everything I wanted

*2026-07-13*

Went from barely using both Bluesky and mastodon to checking both regularly! Great app, responsive updates, no complaints!

### 5/5 — Sync timelines and across devices FTW

*2026-07-12*

You had me at syncing across devices and I have been waiting for that for SO LONG. I often switch between iPad at home and iOS during the day and it’s so nice to have either pick up where I left off.

**Developer response:** Syncing between devices was a non-negotiable day one feature! Glad you’re enjoying it

### 5/5 — O melhor dos mundos

*2026-07-12*

Excelente proposta! Funciona muito bem!

### 5/5 — Tina says it’s Simply the Best

*2026-07-12*

I’ve tried many Mastodon clients and this is the only one which hasn’t left me wishing for features. The inline translations are super nice. The UI is clean and doesn’t get in the way of the task at hand. If I had one gripe it’s the lack of sound effects (guess I’m a sci-fi geek) when performing actions like boosting or liking/favouriting posts.

### 5/5 — Beautifully crafted, responsive devs

*2026-07-12*

Indigo does just what I needed from an app: lets me manage multiple Mastodon and Bluesky accounts, and post to several at once. And it does this all with a fantastically, deliciously iOS interface. Cannot recommend it enough!

### 5/5 — Cross-platform FTW

*2026-07-11*

With connections spread between Mastodon and Bluesky this is the app I’ve been waiting for – and it works great! There are minor hiccups now and then, but they get fixed quickly and I don’t hesitate in recommending Indigo.

### 1.3 — 2026-09-03

Single Service Plan
We’ve added a lower-cost annual subscription option for users of just one service, Bluesky or Mastodon We hope this makes Indigo accessible to a much wider audience.

Apologies to any existing users only on one service; sometimes plans change. Feel free to adjust your subscription and you can avail yourself of the lower pricing for your next renewal.


Feeds, Lists & Timeline Carousel
You can now create custom lists within Indigo, pair lists across services, and add lists and feeds to a new timeline carousel, giving you quick access to your favourite timelines. Timelines in the carousel will update automatically and can take advantage of timeline filters and mutes.


Magic Mentions
We’ve redesigned the interface for mentioning accounts, making it more intuitive and easier to find who you’re looking for.


Paired Profiles
You can now manually create Paired Profiles. Instead of solely relying on Indigo’s crosspost detection, you can create a Paired Profile from two accounts, or use a placeholder name if a person is only on one service.


Muting
We’ve made a whole bunch of improvements to muting. You can now mute Paired Profiles, which applies to both accounts across services. Muting can optionally apply to notifications, can be temporary or indefinite, and you can choose whether mutes are dampened or completely hidden.

Mutes are also easier to create, you can do so by long pressing on a profile photo, or from a profile page.


Scroll Position Sync
Timelines now (once again) automatically update based on synced scroll positions across your devices. You can disable this if you prefer.


Profile Editing
You can now update your avatar image, banner image, display name, profile text, and profile links from within Indigo.


Bluesky OAuth Support
At long last, Indigo supports OAuth sign in for Bluesky. Bluesky’s OAuth implementation does require regular re-authentication (we expect up to every 3 months), and you will have to authenticate on every device. 


Bluesky Labellers
Indigo now supports Bluesky labellers, which are third party tools that can provide additional information about accounts.
