At first I used the web interface to access Mastodon. Then I read people talking about how much better the UX was on an app. So I tried, and paid for, the three leading apps. Of the three, Woolly is the best for me, for the way I like to view and use Mastodon. Not every app will appeal to everyone, but I'll be using Woolly from now on. P.S. It works just fine on my M1 MacBook Air.
Great app with a few annoyances
siddharthgpta
Really like this app, and as other users mentioned the threaded feature of the app is really great! It has a really nice and minimal UI that I like as well.However one of the most annoying things I find about the app is that whenever I open the app after a day or two I have to sit and keep refreshing multiple times just to get to the latest posts. I don’t know if this is a feature, but it would be good to have a way to customize what the user wants to do!
Great!

I’ve used quite a few mastodon clients, and they all have their strengths and weaknesses but woolly is the best I found. For whatever reason Woolly does a lot better with message threading (click on a reply and the full conversation appears… most of the time 🙂). Aside from that Woolly is quite polished, has the features I enjoy, and doesn’t stutter in my iPhone. Good job!
Great for conversation
Brian Lawson
If you like to comment on posts or even just dig into comments, give Woolly a shot. The threaded comments are great. The newest release (1.1) adds the ability to see who else boosted & faved a post. Multiple account support, and the ability to customize layout (columns/tabs) per account.
A big update, ready for iOS 27.
- Woolly has a new look, built with Liquid Glass in mind
- Redesigned posts, profiles and conversation views, with faster scrolling throughout
- Initial support for quote posts
- Translate any post with a tap, using the system translation built into iOS
- A new Trending screen for trending posts, hashtags and links
Woolly now requires iOS 26 or later.
