Ratings and reviews

I have a Galaxy Fold 5, and previously I used Megalodon. I like that app but it does not have a foldable/tablet layout; which brought me to Tusky for the last week or so. As far as that key feature, it's great. Much better use of the inner screen (it even retains two columns in portrait mode!). My only complaint is refreshing the feed - about half the time I try, I get stuck in an infinite load, forcing me to restart the app. Most common after switching screens (opening or closing the phone).

After a few tries and an update was able to log into the app. I believe there was an issue with displaying the MFA prompt. The app is well layed out and has all of the latest features of the web UI. There is one thing keeping me from giving it more stars currently: if I choose to only see original posts and not boosts and replies I'd like that preference to be saved if I close and re-open the app.

This is the best Mastodon app I've found for tablet. Clean interface and the ability to actually fill your screen space with toots is extremely welcome. The way it handles some things like thread display is a little wonky, and I'd love to see the addition of something like the Mastodon web version's column view where you can display multiple tags with filters in each column (as opposed to the follow feature that puts tags in your main timeline), but overall a smooth and great experience.
