    You don’t need to use the official Mastodon apps, they’re not the best way to use Mastodon. The official apps only arrived last year, and they were intended as “Fisher Price My First Mastodon” things with a restricted set of features.

    Third party apps have been around longer than official ones, and include way more features. You can sign in with the same account on all apps.

    :android: On Android try Tusky, Fedilab, Megalodon, Tooot

    :apple_inc: On iPhone/iPad, try Toot!, Ice Cubes, Ivory, Mona

        Ivory can do this via its Safari extension, and it does support Universal Links for select instances. It’s difficult to implement Universal Links for the fediverse because each instance would have to add an association file to their servers, and even if all instances add this, there’s a limit to how many domains you can support in an app
