Ratings and reviews

Android 10: Mukluk doesn't work on Android 10 phones. It simply crashes after being open, particularly with multiple instances. Android 9 and lower: Mukluk is a stable client best suited for MU*ing, and at its finest on MUX. Ability to scroll through poses with a finger swipe is superior to MuClient. Two downsides are a lack of keepalive for PennMush (connections die after 5 minutes tops) and the command box doesn't expand. If those could be added, this would be a perfect five.

A really decent client for MUDing but it could use a built in trigger, timer, alias nested along one side of the screen that can be accessed by swiping and directional GUI around the screen when tapped lightly. Maybe a notebook page nested along the other side of the screen too that can be accessed by swiping.
