28 Positive User Reviews for Mast: for Mastodon
Search is broken
I can’t scroll search results. App is a little buggy around its edges. Otherwise a fine fediverse client. I will happily revise my rating once issues are resolved!
Interesting Choices
I liked the columnar presentation here, but I incorrectly assumed I could customize the columns. You cannot.
There is also a bit of UI cruft (like a tab bar) in the View Menu and some aspects of great Mac OS apps (like ⌘ comma opening prefs) don't work here.
Mac version is buggy
Can't even got Dark Mode turned on.
Native feel
Started using Mast as it has iPad and Mac (and watch) versions — liking it so far!
I wanted to like it
The app is slick and looks good, but is clumsy in some areas. I should not have to tap into a toot to interact. Make it an option.
I also haven’t had a notification once and the feeds are not always updating without manual intervention when opening the app up.
I’ll keep an eye on it but switching back to another app for now.
Best one I’ve tried yet.
A few things I’d like to see added and would tip to see: 1. ability to swipe between home/local/all rather than reach up to tap. 2. option to see # of replies/boosts/fave on posts without tapping toot. 3. ability to add hashtags to follow via home after searching them like you can on web. Least to most important IMO ^
Nice UI but limited functionality
Looks super nice and has good UI but can’t search for or follow people through the app. Also confusing between following fees and public feed.
Great with a few bugs
Good layout, nice interface, responsive. A few notes: - Click and hold on my own profile crashes the app. - Also, I switched to another app, then back to this one, and lost the draft of my post.
One huge advantage of this app is local discovery. I can see posts from people on my instance. I feel connected to others.
Works with SDF
I tried several Mastodon clients and most didn’t work with my account on sdf.org’s Mastodon instance. If you have an account there or somewhere else that isn’t working with other clients, give Mast a try.
Profile problem
Will not show up when I make my profile picture or background picture but it....other than that it's superb everything is gravy
Pretty good
Nice interface, I like the customization options. The feeds page doesn’t want to refresh past an older cached version automatically though for some reason
GREAT JOB ON THE UPDATE
App used to be buggy as hell and unusable, but this most recent update shows a huge improvement. I can finally get toots, and things are working much better in general. Thank you!
Crashes constantly
Refreshing the main feed crashes the app.
No custom emoji
The app is nice and fluid but glitches while refreshing sometimes and there are no custom emoji
Outstanding Product!
This is turning into my favorite Mastodon app. Would like to see a few new features/options in the future.
Best design, few rough edges
I’ve tried several apps for Mastodon/Pleroma and Mast by far looks the best. I’ve run into a few strange bugs and crashes but that should smooth out as the app matures. Keep up the good work.
Nice app for mastodon
I switched to Mast after another app lost it’s support. It works well, supporting everything I use and is easy to use.
Beautiful but still lacks features
For example, why I can’t see all types of notifications together?
But this is still the best mastodon client available.
Love the design!
Five stars. It’s worth it. But.... notifications don’t work. And I have no idea why
Can’t search for users
Why can I not search for users to follow? This is such a basic feature that just... doesn’t work.
Great, but needs to support accessibility features
It’s stylish and works well, but there’s no way to add alt text to uploaded images, which is a serious drawback.
it’s okay. had some glitches
if you use the touch id lock to open the app it just glitches and crashes. also I don’t like how the boost and like buttons are not visible on posts, you have to hold down the post for those options to pop up
Looks nice, not entirely functional
It’s nearly impossible to search hashtags and users. The main feed and profiles look and work very well. Would like to see more attention to browsing hashtags
best Tusky replacement!
coming from Android, I was sorry to leave Tusky behind but this has everything i liked about Tusky and looks awesome! thanks!
Good but needs a minor (but important) feature
The like button (along with anything else) should be directly accessible below a post without having to open that post.
Dark mode
it would be great to get a dark mode irrespective of ios global settings
I’d like to be able to delete posts
But they don’t actually get deleted

Weird issue on start
There's a really weird issue on start in Ventura where the form dialog to give an instance domain is _way_ off to the right, and so it's not visible unless you maximize the view port, but that's not obvious
