Ratings and reviews

It's great on the phone. But on tablets the UI basically does not take advantage of the extra screen real estate. It just occupies the central part of the screen. It is also difficult to find out what part of Mastodon API is implemented and what is not compared to the official client.

The app is great. Just one request for future updates: Could you please give us a share option for links in toots? Right now there is no easy way to save a link to read-it-later apps. I have to open it in a browser and use the browser's sharing option. In Talon, a twitter app I use, holding the url opens a menu which lets you chose whether to open it in internal/external browser or to share it. I can pick "always share with" and then it's just two steps for me to save a link to my read-it-later app.

Overall the app is fine but if I have not opened it for a while then the timeline will skip posts and show a "Load more" button instead. And annoyingly it only loads a few more and then pushes them underneath of the post you're viewing. So if you want to catch up on your timeline you have to load more, scroll down, load more, scroll down etc. until the button doesn't show anymore, and then start scrolling back up.
