Key features

The ability to add other server's local timeline to your timelines

It can be accessed in the "Edit timelines" menu, where you can add a new "Community" to see other server's local posts!

View remote profiles

You can now see all of a profile follows and followers, by directly loading them from the profile's home instance. In case of a failed lookup, the app will automatically fall back to the older method.

Translate posts easily

Allows you to easily translate posts in another language with a translate button! Your instance must support translation, otherwise it will not work.

Show posts filtered with a warning

Allows you to have filtered posts collapsed with a warning! As shown in the screenshots:

Color themes

Allows you to change theme within the app. Supports Material You, purple, pink, green, blue, red, orange, yellow and Nord!

Unlisted posting

Allows you to post publicly without having your post show up in trends, hashtags or public timelines (i.e., in the tabs “Local”, “Community” and “Posts”).

When posting with Unlisted visibility, your posts will still be publicly accessible in your profile. They will also be shown in peoples Home timelines, but only if they follow you or someone they follow reposted/replied to your post.

The Mastodon documentation has some more information about Unlisted posting and Public timelines.

Federated timeline

This allows you to chronologically see all Public posts from people on all other Fediverse neighborhoods your home instance is connected to.

Despite being one of the main features of federated social media, the Federated timeline wasnt included in the official Mastodon app supposedly, because this conflicts with Googles safety requirements for apps on the Play Store.

Thats one of the reasons why choosing a small, well-moderated instance is important. Instance admins and moderators should always make sure to ban abusive users and stop federating with instances who platform them. On well-moderated instances, the Federated timeline can be a welcoming place to meet new people!

Image description viewer

Allows you to quickly check whether an image or video has an alternative text attached to it.

This is important to ensure the content youre sharing is as accessible as possible to people who cant see the images and rely on software to read back the provided content descriptions. Thankfully, its quite common for people on the Fediverse to provide such alt texts, and hopefully things stay this way!

Reminder to add alt text to attached media

By default, Moshidon will show a warning to add alt text if your post has any attachments without any alt text. This is for better accessibility, and it can easily be bypassed and disabled in settings.

Pinning posts

This lets you can highlight important posts on your profile. A dedicated “Pinned” tab in peoples profiles shows all the posts they pinned.

On the Fediverse, its quite common for people to pin posts they want others to read before following them. You can pin/unpin posts yourself by clicking the button in the top right corner of your posts.

Bookmarks

They allow for quickly saving posts and viewing them through the Bookmarks button on the top right of your profile.

To bookmark a post, press the button between the Favorite and Share buttons on the bottom of the post. Bookmarks are saved privately, so the post authors wont know you saved their post the list of bookmarked posts is only visible to you.

Installation

Press the download button above to download the APK. Open the downloaded file on your Android device to install it. Moshidon will automatically notify you about new updates inside the app.

To install this app on your Android device, download the latest release from GitHub and open it. You might have to accept installing APK files from your browser when trying to install it. You can also take a look at all releases on the Releases page.

Moshidon makes use of Mastodon for Androids automatic update checker. Moshidon will check for new updates available on GitHub and offer to download and install them. You can also manually press “Check for updates” at the bottom of the settings page!
