More About Mastodon
This is the official iOS app for Mastodon, a social media platform that offers a powerful publishing and reading experience. With this app, users can explore and discover new writers, journalists, artists, photographers, scientists, and more. They can also keep up with what's happening in the world through a chronological feed with no interruptions. Additionally, users can create and participate in interesting conversations with others, as well as curate their feed by creating lists and filtering out certain words or phrases.
One of the key features of Mastodon is its powerful publishing platform. Unlike traditional social media platforms, Mastodon does not use algorithms to determine what content users see. Instead, if someone follows you, they will see your posts. Additionally, anything published on Mastodon is accessible on the open web, making it easy to share links without worrying about login requirements.
Mastodon also offers a powerful reading platform, with a variety of 3rd party apps and integrations available for users to choose from. The chronological home feed makes it easy to keep track of updates, and users have control over what content they see, rather than relying on algorithms. This platform also allows for seamless communication with users on other Mastodon servers and even other fediverse platforms.
One unique aspect of Mastodon is that it is built on a decentralized protocol, rather than being a traditional social media platform. This means that users can choose to sign up on the official server or opt for a 3rd party to host their data and moderate their experience. Users also have the option to switch to a different Mastodon server while taking their followers with them, and advanced users can even host their own data on their own infrastructure.
Mastodon is a non-profit organization, with a focus on what's best for the platform rather than extracting monetary value. This app has been featured in various media outlets, including TIME, Forbes, Wired, The Guardian, CNN, and more. Overall, Mastodon offers a unique and powerful social media experience that prioritizes user control and a decentralized approach.

A POWERFUL PUBLISHING PLATFORM
You no longer have to try and appease an opaque algorithm that decides if your friends are going to see what you posted. If they follow you, they’ll see it.
If you publish it to the open web, it’s accessible on the open web. You can safely share links to Mastodon in the knowledge that anyone will be able to read them without logging in.
Between threads, polls, high quality images, videos, audio, and content warnings, Mastodon offers plenty of ways to express yourself in a way that suits you.
A POWERFUL READING PLATFORM
We don’t need to show you ads, so we don’t need to keep you in our app. Mastodon has the richest selection of 3rd party apps and integrations so you can choose the experience that fits you best.
Thanks to the chronological home feed, it’s easy to tell when you’ve caught up on all updates and can move on to something else.
No need to worry that a misclick will ruin your recommendations forever. We don’t guess what you want to see, we let you control it.
PROTOCOLS, NOT PLATFORMS
Mastodon is not like a traditional social media platform, but is built on a decentralized protocol. You can sign up on our official server, or choose a 3rd party to host your data and moderate your experience.
Thanks to the common protocol, no matter what you choose, you can communicate seamlessly with people on other Mastodon servers. But there’s more: With just one account, you can communicate with people from other fediverse platforms.
Not happy with your choice? You can always switch to a different Mastodon server while taking your followers with you. For advanced users, you can even host your data on your own infrastructure, since Mastodon is open-source.
NON-PROFIT IN NATURE
Mastodon is a registered non-profit in the US and Germany. We are not motivated by extracting monetary value from the platform, but by what’s best for the platform.
AS FEATURED IN: TIME, Forbes, Wired, The Guardian, CNN, The Verge, TechCrunch, Financial Times, Gizmodo, PCMAG.com, and more.
