Fedilab Customer Insights

1. Also tied to all the features, I wish there was a way to hold press on some buttons and get a hover over type label or description, sometimes it's hard to guess what a button is meant to do.Great Mastodon client that misses a few usability marks for me, but otherwise it's incredibly feature rich and customizable.

2. It's useless to me to be notified for that and it triggers the same notification I get for receiving a 'favorite' or comment, and since my custom notification sound for that is super loud and obnoxious, it gets old fast when I hear it every time I save a media file.It's by far the most effective Android experience for using Mastodon today.

3. Some of the features (like pop ups) use black text colour and don't automatically switch to a lighter colour if you're in dark mode so there are some visibility/readability issues.After trying the other Android options, this is hands down the best.

4. If I use the drop-down menu to select it, it will remove the bubble that shows (😆 1) leaving nothing there.A bit cluttered but Feature Packed, definitely delivers more of Mastodon's full feature set than any other app.

5. Editing posts, image loading, update profile, altext, dark mode, filters, CW, # following, # searching, mute, block.

6. It's super feature rich otherwise, and works very well, I especially love way it treats lists as first class timelines!Updated from a 2.x version today.

7. I've been using it since October, and being ND, the fact that everything works, simple clean design, and is not visually loud, perfect.

8. I'd also love to see a bit more customization around the menu bars layout and positioning.Overall a great app compared to the free ones out there.

9. It has features that others are missing, such as a tab for local timeline and dark mode.

10. One feature suggestion: add an option to disable notifications for saving pictures.

11. The only thing I have an issue with is dark mode.
