Android or iOS? For Android, Flare is great - and it also allows you to cross-post to things like Bluesky if you also have a presence there! f-droid.org/packages/dev.dimen…

For iOS, I've heard good things about Ivory. When I had an iPhone, I used Toot, which I found ok-ish

I use Ivory. It has iPhone, iPad and macOS versions. And has a free and one-time price too. Been using it for 3 years.

The mastodon app is getting better but still not exactly intuitive, but I can confirm socialbc.ca does work on it!

Here’s how to use it.

1) In the first screen when you open it. Make sure to hit
“Log In”. You already have a socialbc.ca account.

2) type in socialbc.ca to search for us and tap us when we appear. (Assuming we do!)

3) then use your email and password that you use on socialbc.ca to login.

There is no step 4! I hope! 😃
You rock!

Toot! (which isn’t the same as Toot) is by far my number 1—and it has the cutest and most fun visuals! Ice Cubes is a close second. Both find my tiny instance without an issue.

The official app, sadly, is universally panned…

Looking forward to seeing more of you!

I’ve had great experience since 2023 with the iOS app “Toot!”

Bug free, full-featured, easy and intuitive UI. I’ve tried others and found Toot! suits me perfectly.

#tusky also works well, I think it's web based but you can have a shortcut on your phone.
