Ratings and Reviews
Great app, held back by performance issues
I really enjoy this app, it’s innovative in ways I never expected a fediverse client to be! As far as i can tell, it’s completely unparalleled!
But yeah, I have trouble getting the like button to click, and after being open for a minute or more it reallly starts to lag. Maybe it’s because I’m on a iPhone SE 2020, but it’s frustrating enough that it keeps SoraSNS from being my go-to, despite its greatness
Making Mastodon more interesting to explore!
My timeline used to be boring with one person’s posts potentially taking all of it. I love the way that this app shows a variety of posts. I have discovered so many new accounts to follow too!!
It’s algorithmic I know but it’s local so that’s far more advanced than other SNS apps.
One feature I hope is Nostr support. And also different interests grouping for different accounts. For now it’s kind of shared between all my accounts.
really great app with one big flaw
i am a big fan of this app and plan on using it as my go to fedi app from now on but the notification section isn’t very user friendly and is a pain to sort through. it would be a 5 star for me if it was more compact or at least an option to sort through replies only. other than that i think the app is designed well and i really love the algorithm i feel like i am more engaged with the fediverse than i have been in awhile
Developer Response ,
Thanks a lot for your review!
🥳I’m happy to let you know that notification filter is now available in the newest version. Please update it by visiting the App Store page🥳
At any time, please feel free to mention me (@me@mszpro.com) if you want me to add a feature. ✌️
Kind words like yours help me stay motivated and keep working on more exciting features for Sora (like voice broadcast, E2EE). I’m open to feedbacks and will make the app work for you and everyone the best.
Enjoy the Fediverse! ✨
