Firefly is an Android client for the Fediverse service Mastodon. It is a continuation of the cancelled Mozilla Social Android app by the devs that built it. Firefly is not associated with Mozilla.
Features Roadmap
- Custom emojis
- Multi-account login
- Bookmarks screen
- Localization
While you can download the APKs here directly, you should preferably use an F-Droid client so the app stays up-to-date on your device. Some clients have this repo enabled by default, e.g. Neo Store, Droid-ify, or, of course, the IzzyOnDroid client by Sunil. With others (like the official client) you'll have to add this repo manually (see the hint on top of the package list for how to do that).

Libraries:
- Android Support v4 (Development Framework)
The Android Support Library is not actually a single library, but rather a collection of libraries that can roughly be divided into two groups: compatibility and component libraries. For details, please see Understanding the Android Support Library.
- AndroidX Activity (Utility)
provides the base Activity subclass and the relevant hooks to build a composable structure on top.
- Android Jetpack Annotations (Utility)
library that contains the annotations for Android Jetpack.
- Arch (Utility)
helper for other arch dependencies, including JUnit test rules that can be used with LiveData.
- AppCompat (Utility)
support newer Android features on older Android versions.
- Browser (Utility)
display webpages in the user's default browser.
- Android Support Library collections (Utility)
standalone efficient collections.
- Jetpack Compose (Development Framework)
a framework to define UIs programmatically with composable functions that describe its shape and data dependencies.
- Concurrent (Utility)
AndroidX library to help move tasks off the main thread with coroutines and take advantage of ListenableFuture.
- Constraint Layout Library (Utility)
library to reduce the number of nested views needed.
- Coordinatorlayout (UI Component)
AndroidX library to position top-level application widgets, such as AppBarLayout and FloatingActionButton.
- Androidx Core (Utility)
a static library that you can add to your Android application in order to use APIs that are either not available for older platform versions or utility APIs that aren't a part of the framework APIs.
- Android Support Library Custom View (UI Component)
a module to implement custom views. Part of the Android Support Library.
- DataStore (Development Aid)
stores data asynchronously, consistently, and transactionally, overcoming some of the drawbacks of SharedPreferences.
- Android Emoji2 Compat (UI Component)
core library to enable emoji compatibility in Kitkat and newer devices to avoid the empty emoji characters.
- Exifinterface (Utility)
a library to read and write image file EXIF tags.
- AndroidX Fragment (UI Component)
AndroidX library to encapsulate part of the user interface or behavior into reusable components.
- Androidx Graphics (Utility)
leverages graphics facilities across multiple Android platform releases.
- Interpolator (UI Component)
AndroidX library to use animation interpolators on older platforms.
- Lifecycle (Utility)
perform actions in response to a change in the lifecycle status of another component, such as activities and fragments.
- AndroidX Media (Utility)
share media contents and controls with other apps.
- AndroidX Media3 (Utility)
share media contents and controls with other apps.
- Navigation (Utility)
a framework for navigating between 'destinations' within an Android application that provides a consistent API whether destinations are implemented as Fragments, Activities, or other components.
- Paging (UI Component)
AndroidX library to make it easier to load data gradually and gracefully within an app's RecyclerView.
- ProfileInstaller (Utility)
AndroidX library that enables libraries to prepopulate ahead of time compilation traces to be read by ART.
- Room (Utility)
a persistence library that provides an abstraction layer over SQLite to allow for more robust database access while harnessing the full power of SQLite.
- Recyclerview (Utility)
display large sets of data in your UI while minimizing memory usage.
- Android Activity Saved State (Utility)
provides the base Activity subclass and the relevant hooks to build a composable structure on top.
- Sqlite (Utility)
library that contains abstract interfaces along with basic implementations which can be used to build your own libraries that access SQLite.
- Startup (Utility)
AndroidX library to implement a straightforward, performant way to initialize components at app startup.
- Tracing (Utility)
AndroidX library to write trace events to the system trace buffer.
- Transition (UI Component)
animates motion in the UI with starting and ending layouts.
- Vectordrawable (UI Component)
AndroidX library to render vector graphics.
- Android Jetpack VersionedParcelable (Utility)
Provides a stable but relatively compact binary serialization format that can be passed across processes or persisted safely.
- Jetpack WindowManager Library (Utility)
enables application developers to support new device form factors and multi-window environments. The library provides a common API surface for API versions 14 and later. Especially provides additional functionality on foldable devices.
- WorkManager (Utility)
an API that makes it easy to schedule deferrable, asynchronous tasks that must be run reliably .
- Coil (Utility)
an image loading library for Android backed by Kotlin Coroutines.
- Accompanist (Utility)
a collection of extension libraries for Jetpack Compose.
- Google Material Design (Utility)
library to help with material design guidelines.
- Google Core Libraries for Java 6+ (Utility)
a set of core libraries that includes new collection types (such as multimap and multiset), immutable collections, a graph library, functional types, an in-memory cache, and APIs/utilities for concurrency, I/O, hashing, primitives, reflection, string processing, and much more.
- Google Protocol Buffers (Utility)
library that deals with Protocol Buffers (a.k.a., protobuf) – Google's language-neutral, platform-neutral, extensible mechanism for serializing structured data.
- AboutLibraries (Utility)
a library to offer some information about libraries.
- OkHttp (Utility)
OkHttp is an HTTP+HTTP/2 client for Android and Java applications.
- Ktor (Development Framework)
framework for quickly creating connected applications in Kotlin with minimal effort.

immutable collection interfaces and implementation prototypes for Kotlin.
- kotlinx.coroutines (Utility)
library support for Kotlin coroutines.
- kotlinx-datetime (Utility)
a multiplatform Kotlin library for working with date and time.
- Kotlin serialization (Utility)
Kotlin cross-platform / multi-format serialization.
- OkHttp okio Framework (Utility)
A modern I/O API for Java to make it much easier to access, store, and process your data.
- KOIN (Utility)
a small library to lets you write dependency injection in a concise and pragmatic way.
- Simple Logging Facade for Java (Utility)
abstraction for various logging frameworks (e.g. java.util.logging, logback, log4j) allowing to plug in the desired logging framework at deployment time.
- UnifiedPush android-connector (Utility)
a library that can be used by an end user application to receive notifications from any unified push provider.
- Timber (Utility)
logger with a small, extensible API which provides utility on top of Android's normal Log class.
Payment Modules:
