Description

Mastodon is the best way to keep up with what’s happening. Follow anyone across the fediverse and see it all in chronological order. No algorithms, ads, or clickbait in sight.
This is the official iOS app for Mastodon. In our app, you can:
EXPLORE
■ Discover new writers, journalists, artists, photographers, scientists and more
■ See what’s happening in the world
READ
■ Keep up with people you care about in a chronological feed with no interruptions
■ Follow hashtags to keep up with specific topics in real time
CREATE
■ Post to your followers or the whole world, with polls, high quality images and videos
■ Participate in interesting conversations with other people
CURATE
■ Create lists of people to never miss a post
■ Filter words or phrases to control what you do and don’t want to see
AND MORE!
■ Login and switch between multiple accounts
■ No spoilers! You can put your posts behind content warnings
A POWERFUL PUBLISHING PLATFORM
You no longer have to try and appease an opaque algorithm that decides if your friends are going to see what you posted. If they follow you, they’ll see it.
If you publish it to the open web, it’s accessible on the open web. You can safely share links to Mastodon in the knowledge that anyone will be able to read them without logging in.
Between threads, polls, high quality images, videos, audio, and content warnings, Mastodon offers plenty of ways to express yourself in a way that suits you.
A POWERFUL READING PLATFORM
We don’t need to show you ads, so we don’t need to keep you in our app. Mastodon has the richest selection of 3rd party apps and integrations so you can choose the experience that fits you best.
Thanks to the chronological home feed, it’s easy to tell when you’ve caught up on all updates and can move on to something else.
No need to worry that a misclick will ruin your recommendations forever. We don’t guess what you want to see, we let you control it.
PROTOCOLS, NOT PLATFORMS
Mastodon is not like a traditional social media platform, but is built on a decentralized protocol. You can sign up on our official server, or choose a 3rd party to host your data and moderate your experience.
Thanks to the common protocol, no matter what you choose, you can communicate seamlessly with people on other Mastodon servers. But there’s more: With just one account, you can communicate with people from other fediverse platforms.
Not happy with your choice? You can always switch to a different Mastodon server while taking your followers with you. For advanced users, you can even host your data on your own infrastructure, since Mastodon is open-source.
NON-PROFIT IN NATURE
Mastodon is a registered non-profit in the US and Germany. We are not motivated by extracting monetary value from the platform, but by what’s best for the platform.
AS FEATURED IN: TIME, Forbes, Wired, The Guardian, CNN, The Verge, TechCrunch, Financial Times, Gizmodo, PCMAG.com, and more.

Needs more work

Feels too heavy and misses essential UX features such as empty state messages (when there are no mentions, such as after a registration, it just shows an empty view). Get Ivory by Tapbots when it’s released, they know what they’re doing.

Good but not playing videos

Ondřej Kozák on

Hi, I like the app and idea of decentralised social network. I have one problem with it, it’s not playing videos, so If I would like to se it, I have to use web version.

iOS unfriendly

Brandon Zk on

Czechia

The account register screen does support hide my mail feature, however password and username inputs are not recognized and thus the iPhone doesn’t allow to generate password and store it together with username in iCloud Keychain. This is a complete fail which is enough for me not to even complete the registration step.

Very good

Mastodon is an excellent alternative for Twitter. Although I experience some small issues with posting images from iPhone SE (1st gen.), I am sure this will be fixed in the future updates. I will be using it anyway, I like the freedom it offers. Excellent!

Good app with a few usability issues

opiske on

As described on the tittle, it’s a good and usable app. It does have some usability issues when setting up the account which can make it harder to use for no techies. On the pro side, it’s an open source application, so anyone with knowledge can contribute to make better. All in all, I recommend it.

For nerds only

R3giCZ on

I really like the idea of privacy friendly open sourced network. But I don't believe it can reach general public. It's simply designed for technical geeks and nerds, not for BFU. I mean even the very first registration screen is overwhelming and complicated. And even when you already know which server you want to join, it's hard to actually find it in the list. The decentralization is cool, but also overwhelming. I think the most people just want to simply join one place and consume the content, not to search and tune the technical stuff all around. That's why I think it won't be mass adopted and the interesting content will happen elsewhere.
