User Reviews

I've logged into my Friendica server (my-place.social) over 10 times, authentication is successful each time. However, there was no way to get back to the app feed without hitting "cancel" from the internal browser, completely losing the authenticated session. The developer reached out swiftly to offer help. I posted this on a week when there have been a couple family emergencies, so the only reason it's not 100% fixed yet is because I'm slow make use of the offered support -- but the developer is friendly, helpful, professional, patient, and has made easy support resolution available to me that I'm sure will work out well as I make use of more of the resources.

I think this is a fantastic way of viewing threaded content, and I can’t wait to use this more! As a feature request, I’d REALLY like to be able to dismiss sheet modals with the swipe-down gesture. The rest of the gesture-driven UI is EXCELLENT.

It would be five stars but there doesn’t seem to be a way to receive notifications. EDIT: I changed to 5 stars. Very well made app and responsive developer. The horizontal feed, along with how notifications are handled, makes this a one of a kind mastodon app. Highly recommend.
