JoannaSternWhat iOS Mastodon app is the best?
S Collis@joannastern I've only tried the official and Metatext so far but Metatext is absolutely cracking!
Ian Fleming Design@joannastern metatext working great for me
JohnnyD@joannastern I Like Metatext which is free, but the paid for toot is getting good reports also
metallcorn š§@joannastern tusky, or official.. if we talking about smartphone.. on desktop web app is better than all clients
IanHill@joannastern Iāve found Toot! immediately useful for running two accounts plus it has a great look.
Claude M. Schrader@joannastern Iām using Toot! and like it. Itās pretty polished
Alexey Veraksa@joannastern I coughed up $4 for Toot!
Matt@joannastern Iām liking Toot! so far but really need the Tapbots guys to get an app out like Tweetbot
Robin Vleij@matt @joannastern Tapbots coming out with a Tweetbot style client (or add support for Mastodon) would rock! Long time Tweetbot user here!
@robin @joannastern the default web interface actually has something similar to tweetdeck - go into preferences - appearance and enable "Advanced Web Interface"
@robin @joannastern (and just to clarify, I was hoping also for a Tweetbot-like app from Tapbots)
@matt @joannastern typo, I totally meant Tweetbot. Long time Tweetbot user here. No more Mastodoning before sleeping haha.
Michael Bartholomew@matt @joannastern I contacted them on Twitter and asked if they are considering creating clients for iOS and macOS.
Ian Moran@joannastern also check out tooot - spelling is correct
Jeff Greco@joannastern Toot has some pretty (intentionally) silly UI elements but the ability to browse other servers without joining is a gamechanger
Jordan@joannastern Metatext seems to be the best so far. The official client is decent, but doesnāt have the ability to view the federated stream.
Marmelade@joannastern Metatext. By far the best app for iOS
Rui Carmo@joannastern Iāve tried Tooot, Toot!, MetaText and Amaroq besides the official one. Right now Iām split between MetaText (clean UX, occasional bug in search) and Toot! (Cutesy UX, but a killer feature that lets me peek at public timelines in multiple servers).
Brian Hough@joannastern Metatext is the best Iāve found so far, but definitely still lots of room for improvement!
@joannastern leaning toward Metatext at the moment.
Dirk KS@joannastern Iām using MetaText and am happy with it, but arenāt you going to make a video visiting with some actual mastodons (or at least elephants) while comparing them all?
John W. Little@joannastern I like Toot! I've heard good things about Metatext as well
Pascal Cremer@joannastern Try Mastoot. Very slick, clean and well designed free client. It can actually compete with some of the better iOS 3rd party Twitter clients IMO https://apps.apple.com/de/app/mastoot/id1501485410
Sylvain Neuvel@[email protected] BE Interested in the answers. I'm using Tootle because it was first in the app store...
Catherine@joannastern Iām enjoying tootle, but unclear if it is the best

Ī±@joannastern I have used several apps and I think this is the best one.

@joannastern I been testing Metatext and Tooot. Canāt decide yet. Considering trying Toot! as well.
Carlos Sierra š¹@joannastern Metatext is the one I've liked the most. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/metatext/id1523996615
filip š@joannastern Toot! is cool although kinda quirky
Sam Brentnall@joannastern Currently trying out the official app, MetaText and Toot. Really liking all three to be honest. Note to self though, need to only have notifications enabled on one of the app š
Chief TWiT 
@joannastern Metatext - open source and free.
https://apps.apple.com/us/app/metatext/id1523996615
Trust me, I've tried them all.
(((Jann Gobble)))š³ļøāš@leo, replying to "all" (ie including Joanna) gives "502 bad gateway. Can we not talk to mastodon.world?
Kevin Whalen 
@leo @joannastern Try Tooot - open source, free and actively developed. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/tooot/id1549772269
ātooot
ātooot is an open source, simple yet elegant Mastodon mobile client. A Mastodon (https://joinmastodon.org/) account is required to use this app. tooot supports: - Cross platform, including iPadOS and MacOS - Multiple accounts - Dark mode or adapt to system - Adjustable toot font size - Push notificaā¦
Andreas Chatzopoulos š¾@joannastern Metatext is pretty good if you want a free one.
Rachel Metz@joannastern Metatext and the official iOS app are decent.
Raj Singh@joannastern put me down as another vote for Metatext - pretty delightful experience so far!
Coco@joannastern MetaText, for me at least. Full featured, not buggy, quite Twitter-like if that's what you're looking for. The only problem is that it seems unmaintained as of now.
@joannastern Metatext gets my vote
@joannastern Metatext
Alex Cash@joannastern Metatext is my winner so far

Attached: 1 image Now available! :mastodon: My in-depth comparative review of eight Mastodon apps for iPhone Please boost (or share on Twitter) š https://transponderings.blog/2022/05/21/eight-mastodon-apps-for-iphone/
LeeCookson@joannastern Iāve been using the āofficialā (ok), Tootle (slightly outdated?), Mercury (cool, but some odd UX), and finally Toot! ($4US) and have settled on Toot!, but keeping the official one installed to compare further.
theromit@joannastern I have used Mastodon and Metatext and the latter _seems_ better. Looking for more recos.
Martin, Regulus Tithonium@joannastern Personally, I'm a fan of Toot!. It's not perfect (can't edit profile from the app, for example), but for daily use I've been happy with it.
Richard Bennett@joannastern Lots of them are pretty bad, here's a review a friend shared: https://transponderings.blog/2022/05/21/eight-mastodon-apps-for-iphone/
Alexis Madrigal@joannastern @rachelmetz I find myself flipping between Mastodon and Toot
Josh Levy@alexismadrigal @joannastern @rachelmetz Same, but despite a few less features I'm favoring Mastodon, just works better and honestly looks nicer
Dave Lee@alexismadrigal @joannastern @rachelmetz
Thereās a sentence that wouldnāt have made sense a week ago
David Nelson@joannastern Personally I donāt feel like thereās a clear winner yet, but my favorites are Toot!, Metatext, and the official app.
Carla G-S @ worldkey.io@joannastern For me, itās been Toot! so far and I tried about a half dozen of them. But Iām still hoping TapBots creates one.
Chris Marrin@RadioCarla @joannastern unfortunately I will never, ever use an app named āTootā! š
Mark Philpot@joannastern Iām running Metatext on both iOS and Macā¦ Itās the best one Iāve tried so far.
The mac side was definitely a surprise since I just remembered this morning that you can run some iOS apps on macOS
Joe Eversole@joannastern Iām using Toot and have found it to be pretty good.
Superdiesel@joannastern chrome iOS works sweet.
Toni Lampela š«š®šŗš¦@joannastern I like Mastoot: https://apps.apple.com/fi/app/mastoot/id1501485410
