The official #Mastodon apps have been updated 🥳 Update to the latest versions to see new features.

Highlights:

:android: Official Android app now lets you edit your posts. Click ⋯ on a post and "Edit". You can also bookmark posts now.

:apple_inc: Official iPhone / iPad app now lets you follow hashtags. To follow a hashtag, search for a hashtag and click the "Follow" button. To see your followed tags, go to your profile page and click the # icon at the top.

@feditips yay EDIT in official Mastodon app! I'm using Tooot right now but I might give the official one a try.

@feditips You can list your followed hashtags? I don't think even the web interface has that yet...

Very nice.

@feditips I use the official #iOS #Mastodon client, I have it up to date, I can’t see the hashtag icon on my profile… is this a #Mastodon4 feature?

@feditips I know this is off-topic, but that duck is very cute.😊

FediTips has moved!

p.s. Couldn't fit this in character limit but official iPhone/iPad app now also supports adding a profile banner image. Just go to your profile and click "Edit Info" then click the banner.

@feditips Just double clicked the side button to install on my iPhone. Still using Twitter on iOS - at least until the wheels fall completely off...

Curiosa 🦋

@feditips
For Android there is an app called Megalodon which is a replica of the official Mastodon app with additional features.

Aimee will not comply

@feditips I'm using the Android app and I don't have any of those things on the top of my post like you just showed

OK much-desired update but is it now better than say #Tusky?

@feditips I want a notification when someone responds to me. Or some way of finding out that they have.

General question about Mastodon apps, not necessarily just the official apps:

What do they do that one cannot do from the mobile web interface?

One thing I have heard about from at least one "endorsed but not official" app is scheduled posts. But that's the only non-web feature I've read about.
