Review summary

Users praise trunks for Mastodon for its beautiful UI and strong feature set, and it’s generally well-received. However, recurring concerns focus on navigation/discovery of lists and filters, limited customization options (fonts, UI controls, media options), and Markdown/markup rendering issues.

Pros

Beautiful, slick, and enjoyable user interface (UI/UX) across multiple reviews.
Feature-rich Mastodon client (quotes, scheduled posts, and other capabilities) as highlighted by users.
Generally well-received with positive recommendations from users.

Cons

Navigation and discoverability for lists/hashtags and general navigation between sections is confusing or hard to access (lists/filters and routing between sections).
Customization limitations (font options/size, button bar availability, media download options, animations) and related UI control requests.
Markdown/markup rendering issues (forced Markdown rendering and markup-related problems).

2026-04-13	di*****	This client is straightforward and reliable, but if there’s a way to manage follow lists and hide filters (like mastodon enables in the web UI) then it is extremely well hidden. I can’t find it.

2025-07-24	Ap*****	Do you want the forum//threads way of viewing things back for mastodon? This is the move, hopefully they implement lemmy a bit, it works surpisingly well, ive always wanted an app that showed microblogging content (twitters, etc.) like forums (reddit, lemmy)

2024-12-30	bo*****	One of the most feature complete Mastodon clients. Quote posts, scheduled posting, and more. Plus, it’s a just a darn fun UI design with lots of little pleasantries throughout. Give it a try!

2024-11-19	ra*****	Anyone else having this issue? No push notifications are ever received. Only when you open the app does the last notification show up as a pushed notification. Otherwise, the app is decent. An improvement would be easier access to lists and hashtags one is following and navigating between them.

2024-09-16	xk*****	Forces “Markdown” rendering even when original was not written that way. Please choose system font & size as initial setting. Requires too much effort to pick similar combinations. Need to have button bar available everywhere, not just on Home feed; option to not download images, videos; and option to disable animations in profile icon & display name. Please disable edit notifications; do not care at all. Some truncated toots show fewer words than the threshold set for “read more”.

2024-04-20	No*****	Beautiful app, honestly, it only feels a bit sluggish to me. Apart from that, amazing app guys, I’ll keep using it.
