* [Home](help)
  * [Using the APIs](help/api)

## Overview

Friendica provides the following endpoints defined in [the official Mastodon API reference](https://docs.joinmastodon.org/api/).

Authentication is the same as described in [Using the APIs](help/api#Authentication).

## Clients

Supported mobile apps:

- Tusky
- Husky
- twitlatte

Unsupported mobile apps:

- [Subway Tooter](https://github.com/tateisu/SubwayTooter) Uses the wrong grant_type when requesting a token, possibly a problem in the server type detection of the app. See issue https://github.com/tateisu/SubwayTooter/issues/156
- [Mammut](https://github.com/jamiesanson/Mammut) States that the instance doesn't exist. Most likely an issue in the vitality check of the app, see issue https://github.com/jamiesanson/Mammut/issues/19
- [AndStatus](https://github.com/andstatus/andstatus) Doesn't provide all data at token request, see issue https://github.com/andstatus/andstatus/issues/537
- [Fedilab](https://framagit.org/tom79/fedilab) Automatically uses the legacy API, see issue: https://framagit.org/tom79/fedilab/-/issues/520
