Mast: For Mastodon Customer Service

Mast: for Mastodon Positive Reviews

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 ^.234245Version: 2.2.3

Great!This app is great and has what it needs as a mobile version of mastodon. There are some bugs that aren't so great, one in particular is that I'll try and post a finished toot, but in the process the tab closes and I lose the whole toot. It doesn't save into my drafts, simply just deleted when it was meant to be posted. This aside, I really enjoy the app, thanks guys!.MothwishVersion: 2.2.1

Great with a few bugsGood 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..Capt CatnipVersion: 2.2.3

Beautiful app that’s actively developed and improvedUpdated review from original Time to brush off the cobwebs and update the app! Mastodon is the thing now. As with ALL iOS/iPadOS Mastodon clients, it needs some TLC but it still basically looks good. Multi-account functionality would be wonderful. BTW I’m not asking for freebies. I’ll happily pay any developer who makes a really solid, supported Mastodon. I’ll even pay a sub for it..Scottaw66Version: 2.2.3

Good app, needs a tiny bit of polishFor one it’s hard to caption images because the image does not stay on screen when captioning, which is bad from an accessibility standpoint. And metrics don’t seem to work at all. However very polished after some updates, just needs a bit more work..Mint MenthaVersion: 2.2

Profile problemWill not show up when I make my profile picture or background picture but it....other than that it's superb everything is gravy.C-Slottter23Version: 2.2.3

I wanted to like itThe 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..XxorithVersion: 2.2.3

Mast - good UI but some functions don’t workI just started using Mast for my social App. It has a nice UI but the main feature that sent me back to the App Store was search. The Explore tab has a search button and does perform a search. The resulting list is NOT scrollable nor can I interact with the row items. Eg I couldn’t respond to a toot or follow a person..David A KoontzVersion: 2.2.3

Outstanding Product!This is turning into my favorite Mastodon app. Would like to see a few new features/options in the future..Spudboy2006Version: 2.2

Search is brokenI 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!.SmpetreyVersion: 2.2.3

Best design, few rough edgesI’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..Thaumaturge.Version: 2.2.1

It’s okay. had some glitchesIf 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.DepophoeVersion: 2.2.3

Good but needs a minor (but important) featureThe like button (along with anything else) should be directly accessible below a post without having to open that post..LH BaumgartnerVersion: 2.2.3

Native feelStarted using Mast as it has iPad and Mac (and watch) versions — liking it so far!.RodChristiansenVersion: 2.2.3

Nice app for mastodonI switched to Mast after another app lost it’s support. It works well, supporting everything I use and is easy to use..MarkTheManiacVersion: 2.2.2

Nice UI but limited functionalityLooks 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..FranklyBradVersion: 2.2.3

Looks nice, not entirely functionalIt’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.AujustusgloopVersion: 2.2.3

Great, but needs to support accessibility featuresIt’s stylish and works well, but there’s no way to add alt text to uploaded images, which is a serious drawback..I_eat_gnu_for_breakfastVersion: 2.2.3

Beautiful but still lacks featuresFor example, why I can’t see all types of notifications together? But this is still the best mastodon client available..黑猫の魂火Version: 2.2.2

Love the design!Five stars. It’s worth it. But.... notifications don’t work. And I have no idea why.Claud_CherejiVersion: 2.2.2

Very promising, pleasant to use, minor snags yetI've been using Mast for a few days so far, and it's been quite great! The interface feels well thought out and behaves as I'd expect it to. It supports the Mastodon features you need (message privacy, CW's, sensitivity and textual descriptions for pictures), and feels pleasant and fast. Some toothing problems in this revision, but I expect they'll get fixed soon! * the "activity" view crashes very often * you can use the app one handed! Great when waiting in line: double-tap images to zoom, throw them away to dismiss; unfortunately, dismissing animated GIFs requires stretching your thumb all the way to the X in the far left corner (Mast does picture in picture, which seems neat but I don't use it) * It still loses scroll state on occasion (but is pretty good at retaining the position usually!) * content-warning posts, once revealed, can't be closed again; the only way I found to do that has been to scroll away, which restores the warning (weirdly: I've seen background refreshes restore the content warning without any interaction from me) Overall, I think this app is more than worth the price! Once the crasher bugs are fixed, I'd absolutely recommend using it for anyone's Mastodon needs!.AntifoochsVersion: 1.1

How do you turn on the dark mode?Help.DrPippiVersion: 2.2.3

Better than the webUI, work in progressI’m giving Mast 5 stars because this app is beautiful to look at (though uniquely designed it’s still easily navigated) and the potential is there to be the go to app for Mastodon users. I can’t stress this enough: If you need a mature app that’s been tested for years and has a solid bedrock of Q&A underneath it: look elsewhere. Part of Mast’s charm is that it’s immature software and although it’s a bit buggy, the developer works incredibly hard on adding features and squashing bugs. Updates are frequent and I haven’t witnessed any update feel like a “regression” I’m happy I bought it and look forward to future updates..Chumstick1821Version: 1.5.5

Putting Prior Features Behind Paywall — Against Apple TOSThis app is a well designed client for Mastodon. A nice UI. Unfortunately the developer has recently put most functionality behind a subscription (including for those customers who already purchased the full version). Much of the now-locked functionality was already available in the prior paid version (specifically multiple accounts and push notifications). Removing features previously paid for is categorically against the App Store TOS, so I hope the developer is able to figure out a different way forward in the near future. Up until now I’ve been waiting to see if the dev team was at all responsive to the feedback regarding the removal of paid features — at this point, it seems like that’s not going to happen. The only other route to pursue is submitting a complaint to Apple, so that’s the next stop on this particular train..Marlowe310Version: 2.0.7

Great start, but missing some key features! (Also occasional crashes)This app is beautiful and responsive but: -crashes when switching accounts or replying occasionally -can’t make cws for images other than the nsfw filter? -nsfw filter on posts with images also covers text, making it more difficult to pre-screen content -slightly clunky placement of follow requests, no notification for new pending follower -no way to tell if post has cw applied or not on drafting toot screen (light up the icon if applied maybe?) -custom instance emotes in own posts show up as text? kinda a bummer. I’ll happily update my review and continue using if/when these things are changed, and as JPEG is super on top of updates for this app, I assume things will continue improving! Otherwise, playing with customization in the app is great and there are lots of options to change things to be more standard if you don’t like the layout (such as swiping actions)..I know what you're thinking!Version: 1.7.6

Promising but needs a bit of workIt works well for browsing Mastodon but it eschews the default layout of toots which is a bit annoying. I wish boost/favorite buttons appeared by default instead of having to swipe to get to them, and sometimes I can’t see whole threads when viewing a subtoot. The biggest issues are notifications and crashing when I try to view activity for my profile; Amaroq and Tootdon has these issues as well. Notifications worked great up until a week ago but now they’re gone which is a bit annoying..BreakfastgolemVersion: 1.2

Get it!Great Mastodon client with some whimsy sprinkled in. Developer is responsive and goes above and beyond on making sure your Mastodon experience will be a good one..OpenFirmwareVersion: 1.7.6

Inactive development?Looks like Mast was sold by its developer. Not sure if the new owners are looking to improve it or not. It crashes a lot, doesn’t support notifications, and has problems refreshing, so there’s definitely work to be done..IsaacFosterVersion: 2.2.3

Can’t connect to all instancesSeems unable/unwilling to connect to some instances, maybe being “filtered” by someone to “protect” users from the “evil internet places”? Can’t tell easily. Just a friendly warning..TravelingPandaVersion: 1.7.6

Love the App but Notifications Don't WorkThis is a great app and I enjoy using it, but I can't get it to deliver notifications and all the email addresses the developers provide bounce back, not sure how else to get support....JarrekVersion: 2.2.3

Great client and a developer that stands behind itGreat client for Mastodon and I love the stand that the developer continues to take on not allowing hate speech to be interacted with on his app. Keep up the good work..CurtismchaleVersion: 1.7.4

Mast: for Mastodon Negative Reviews

Accessibility is an afterthoughtI want to like Mast, but when the rough edges for the app do appear, they’re usually in accessibility features. When I upload a photo to include in a toot, for example, there’s no obvious way to add a caption for screen reader users. I have to somehow know ahead of time to long-press the uploaded image, and even though it says it’s done uploading, I get an error when I try adding a caption saying I need to wait until it’s done uploading, even though I haven’t published the toot yet and the app already showed that the image was uploaded. This doesn’t work even when I save it as a draft, because when you do that it doesn’t save the image with the draft and you have to re-upload it and run into the same error. They got a good dark theme though, but that just reflects the priorities of the app..HuertanixVersion: 2.2.3

UnderwhelmedThis app is so bad it should not be allowed to be a paid app. The search feature is broken and making something as simple as a text post is frustrating. For some reason i have to hit post twice or three times to toot something and then once it decides to work it posts two or three duplicate toots. I can’t beeline the developer not only charges 2.99 for this app but also has the gall to have a tip jar inside the app. Here’s your tip: fix this mess..Is.arrVersion: 2.2.3

Notifications do not work, don’t buy this appThis app never prompted me for notifications so I can’t enable them in settings. Also for some reason you can’t like or boost a post without clicking on it. No option to disable the word “toot,” which is awful. Also the app uses hearts for favorites instead of stars, which I hate. Mostly though, I’m just mad notifications won’t work. What a waste of three bucks..Some person with an internetVersion: 2.2.3

Crashes constantly.A few days after purchasing it started crashing as soon as the app launched. Gave up. I suppose it has some value in that I can share media to it and create a post. But to view that post I need to fire up a web browser which kind of defeats the purpose..XterminusVersion: 2.2.3

Notifications do not workIt's so frustrating. They never load. It's been like this constantly since the beginning. I just...want to use the site and app. I also find accounts I've removed, muted, or blocked still show up. I don't have the problem on the website. The Mac app doesn't work at all..RaantuvaVersion: 2.2.2

Not the best.It’s trying to work but the biggest issue I have is the inability to search. Not sure if it’s just buggy or what but the explore/ search functions don’t work at all. Definitely not worth the price..Alimay17Version: 2.2.3

Frequent crashesIt looks great, but always seems to crash when loading certain tabs. The things that do work, however, are fantastic..V0LT TechVersion: 2.2.1

Out of dateI do not recommend buying this app, because the app hasn’t been updated for more than 2 years many mastodon’s new feature aren’t added to this app. Save your money..AlterSebasianVersion: 2.2.3

No Upgrade Path For Early SupportersGreat app actually, but I paid a fair amount for an app ($5), and suddenly lost access to every feature I used after a hiatus from Mastodon. No upgrade path, so I honestly feel scammed; i bought the app specifically for those features, and never would have purchased had i known it'd only be for 9 months. Idea of a one time purchase is that it's a one time purchase; Mast isn't like a weather app or some other service-based app that relies on pricey APIs; Mastodon is an open source, "federated" service. Sure, developer needs paid to maintain the application, but stripping 90% of the app from paying users and asking them to pay again seems unfair; at least publish the revised application as a new listing so paying users can use the old version without support. :|.MisutaaUrufuVersion: 2.0.1

Notifications are broken, other concernsNotifications are currently completely non-functional, which has been quite disappointing. The developer has known about this for several days, but hasn’t been able to remedy the situation. This delay does not inspire confidence in his ability to provide a reliable service. Aside from notifications, the timeline is frequently buggy with regards to being able to maintain scroll position. Additionally, the “load more toots” button shows up at random and when pressed, completely messes with scroll position, requiring a bunch of scrolling up and down to determine where one was in the timeline. Once the charge for this app transitions out of “pending” state, I’ll be requesting a refund due to lack of notification functionality..EEAA632579Version: 1.5.0

Not Worth a penny SUPER BUGYThis app is SUPER BUGY! It also has a few weird/ annoying bits to it. For example, when you’re typing a toot there is no ‘enter’ on the keyboard. Which is stupid and annoying. It usually won’t let me upload a photo. You have to click either into a toot to boost or like it or use the iOS 3D Touch. It’s generally not user friendly and glitches often. There are days where it just crashes and can’t use it at all. I do hope the developers continue to work on this app. Though I find it very frustrating to use it has a nice interface and has neat features like being able to do polls and view engagement metrics..Insta@TatilicioussVersion: 2.0.7

Missing too many featuresPurchased and saw too late that it hasn’t been updated in over 2 years. No support for notifications? How exactly does that work on a social networking app?.Raspu3000Version: 2.2.3

Looks like this app is done.Developer accounts are inactive, not even bugfix/os support updates are being released. Maybe look elsewhere. Sad cause so much potential….Optic2Version: 2.2.3

There's potential hereI really like the idea with this app - one that works on nearly all the Apple platforms, and is open source / Free Software. However, the app has lots of bugs such as: * I can't get it to properly refresh the local timeline on macOS without quitting. * I can't seem to reorder columns. * Crashes on watchOS on my S3 * CMD-, doesn't work to open preferences - in fact, the whole UI seems like a straight port from iOS. Better than nothing, but in practice I'll use a web client instead. Also, the contact links in the About panel either don't activate on clicking, or point to expired domains, so it makes me think the app has been abandoned..DeviantintegralVersion: 2.2.2

Crashes a lotLovely app to look at and use, lots of features, but it crashes frequently, either after writing a toot or simply refreshing for more content. This app needs better testing and debugging. Update. I’m giving up on this app. It constantly crashes, even on the most trivial of actions. I’m taking note of the developer and not using ANYTHING of theirs ever again. Terrible quality, and I say this as a very experienced software developer myself..Danielw45634564356Version: 1.7.6

Developer should disclose domains blockedThis developer treats his users like children and forced a built-in Net Nanny. At bare minimum, he should disclose which domains are blocked before tricking customers into purchases..Jonathan SudermanVersion: 1.7.5

Poor design, do not recommendIt's not terrible, but the forced column view means you're giving up the web app for a very narrow view of your feed. I assumed I could hide notifications, messages, etc. If you open a photo, there's no close button, ESC doesn't do anything, so I have to close the app and reopen it. I would recommend sticking with the web app until Mast hits maturity..LukeesssVersion: 2.2.3
