Indigo Launches as One App for Mastodon and Bluesky

A paid, Apple-only client links Mastodon and Bluesky for simpler cross-posting.

Overview

  • Indigo, a new client from Soapbox Software, is now on the App Store for iPhone, iPad, and Mac.
  • The app pulls posts from Mastodon and Bluesky into one timeline and offers a single composer for both.
  • It detects near-duplicate posts across the two networks and can merge them to avoid repeats.
  • Cross-posting, timeline sync across devices, and trend tracking sit behind a paid tier priced at $4.99 a month, $34.99 a year, or a $119.99 one-time purchase.
  • Users can add multiple accounts for each network, though only one per network stays active at once, and tools like color cues, filters, and universal search aim to smooth daily use.
