Nice, clean and simple

This app is nice, clean and simple. Very lightweight and responsive. The only issue is having to wait for videos to load with no visual clue.

It’s such a shame the author is no longer updating it.

Bring back push notifs

It’s better than the default mastodon app in some ways. Idk if it’s better. Does not crash when scrolling the feed like default app. That’s the reason why I use it.

Dead app

No new updates. No support for new Masto features. Other than that (seriously!) it's pretty good.

Cool mit kleinen Schwächen

Schlank und durchdacht. Gefällt mir!

Allerdings wäre es schön, beim Eingeben einer Bildbeschreibung das Bild weiterhin sehen zu können.

Außerdem fehlt mir die Möglichkeit, mit Listen zu arbeiten.

Was great but now not as much

I use Mastoot for pawoo and baraag but for some unknown reason it stopped using pawoo now it won’t even bring up other social media outlets that it supports.

Although when I use pawoo through my main computer pawoo works fine, would not recommend.

Best Mastodon Client of all

Focused to the important aspects:
- keeps safely the reading position
- handy fav and RT function by swiping left/right
- quick and thin

Alles andere ist Schnickschnack!

Nice

Neat little app for accessing Mastodon servers, but no option to auto-play animated gifs.

Legit

Works with federated timeline. Can add multiple accounts. Scrolling through posts is smooth and quick. No data collection or in app purchases. The only problem I have is when I comment on a post I’m not seeing it pop up until I go back to the post. Not a deal breaker considering its smooth functionality. Best app I’ve tried so far (even better than Metatext which seems to be on hiatus). Doubt there is a better app out there imo.

Simple, intuitive, tout est bon.

Excellent

Free, no data collection and has heaps of useful features

Better than Ivory

So the creators of ivory seem to be riding their own coattails and not fixing bugs that are glaring while small developers aren’t charging and make amazing apps like Mastoot. There’s several others that are great as well but I’ve landed on this one as a favorite. Think twice before spending money ($50 per YEAR for MacOS and iOS separately for Ivory because the greed just never ends) and support small developers and donate as you can. I don’t want this to become another monopoly and it seems those at the top as per usual are fine pulling the ladder up behind them. Support small developers. Amazing app.

Accessibilité à améliorer

Manque juste la possibilité de lire (visuellement) les descriptions accessibles des photos postées et cela sera parfait 😎

The most Twitter-like client

I try other clients out, but I always come back to Mastoot. Many of us find some comfort in the way Twitter looked, and this client really bridges that gap. If you are coming over from that nightmare of a site, this should be the app you jump into first.

If I could make some recommendations, I would ask for a way to “quote tweet” toots via generating an image of the toot and the allowing text with the image embedded (Mammoth can do this, I think).

Also, and I find this to be an oversight on the dev team’s part, but favoriting and boosting need to be at the bottom of every toot, not hiding behind an ellipses submenu. These kinds of feedback are crucial to the entire network, and boosting should be front and center.

Even with those deficiencies, though, this is still a five star app. Stable. Nice looking. Simple.

Great work.

A great Mastodon client

I honestly have no issues with this. The UI is nice and looks like a native iOS app plus being able to change the icon and accent color is a good feature. Also it’s free

Almost perfect

When trying to pick a Mastodon client, I have to admit this one first jumped out at me because of how cute the icon is. But the reviews sold me on it, and I'm really pleased with this client. It's very straightforward and intuitively organized. It's easy to find whatever I want. The only feature requests I have are a character counter so I can tell how close I am to the limit instead of just guessing; and a way to access the extra emojis that are available in the browser version. (This second one is less of a big deal because you can manually insert them if you know the name of the emoji.) Overall I'm really happy with Mastoot and hope it continues to just get better and better!

Perfect

Just the right features in a simple, clean and beautiful design. Great app!

Great app

I enjoy this app a lot. The only feature requests I have:
-The ability to read alt text (If this exists I cannot find it)
-Notification badge (the red circle saying I have messages)

Great app, definitely the best client I’ve used.

I’ve used 4 different Mastodon clients at this point, from the official Mastodon app, to Tootle, Mammoth, to Metatext and this is definitely the cleanest, easiest to use client so far.

Very well lashed out, easy to customize and makes all of the best features of Mastodon readily available. I love the option in the explore section to go to my local timeline or the federated feed, something many clients make difficult to navigate.

One thing I really need to see in the app is a hashtag button on the main keyboard when drafting a post. Having to navigate to my special characters menu when hashtagging is the only reason this review is at 4 stars instead of 5. I’ve submitted a feature request, so fingers crossed we’ll see this in an update soon.

Light, simple, elegant, functional

I love this app: it works so well, it is easy to use and it feels so good. The best ux i ever seen in a third-party iOS app.

Simple and Fast

Performant and simple interface with all the basic customisation you’d expect. Great choice!
