Mona for Mastodon

Can you please add the ability to mute individual mastodon posts? I remember it being a feature in Spring.

I heard of this app after searching around online for the best iOS Mastodon app in 2024, and this one was getting high praise but with the disclaimer that "some features were behind a Paywall". Which is fine! Some of the more advanced customization features sure enough are pro-only. Except that the most basic Mastodon features possible (boosting, liking, and saving toots) are also "pro-only"? Which is an absolutely wild decision on the part of the developer and makes this app literally unusable. At that point just make the app a $12 purchase from the store and be done with it.

Love mona, hate the generic icons. please put some love into creating app icons that actually reflect the fediverse. ❤️❤️❤️

I make sure that the filter for my home page has replies unchecked because they're usually just a random reply with no context I don't want on my feed. Unfortunately I'm still getting replies in my feed. This issue has been around for multiple updates and it's making the app unusable. IDK how anyone on the fediverse deals with so many replies in their feed. If this gets fixed then I can update this review to also include all the good things I love about this app.

Rock solid timeline. It’s extensibility is amazing. It’s automation is the best. No bugs detected. Also a one time purchase. I’ll occasionally tip if it gets better. Sad I never tried the twitter client. I was too into tweetbot.

The been app for Mastodon

I’ve tried a lot of the Mastodon iOS apps but this one is my favorite. Not only is it very smooth and fast, it looks great too, with a user interface that matches the look and feel of the operating system. The closest comparison to Mona is perhaps Ice Cubes, but that app has a lot of bloat to the UI and feels a bit slower. Also, Mona allows more customization than any of the apps I tried. Best thing? No stupid monetization model. I gladly paid for the Pro Max version of this app to get it on all my Apple devices. And since it’s a one time fee, I can enjoy it as long as I want and not have to worry about paying monthly like some other apps. Big thumbs up from me.

The most basic functionality of mastodon like favoriting and reposting toots, not to mention the ability to filter and mute posts, and which is basically required to make mastodon usable at all, are locked behind a 12 dollar paywall, or a 20 dollar one if you want to use the app on more than one device. I would rather pay a 3 dollar subscription every month then pay that much up front. Give us options, or maybe have the balls to make the app fully paid instead of offering a gimped app and charging to make it useable.

It’s hard for me to say if I prefer Ivory, or Mona. But it’s unquestionable that at the time of writing Mona is easily the most customizable, and best app for those with accessibility needs. It’s a great app for general use too! Plus unlike Ivory there’s no subscription here. Just a one time payment to unlock all functionality. I highly recommend this app

Great app
