@Gargron I can't install the app though the play store on my phone.
It says that this article isn't available.
I am using a Motorola Moto G8 Plus with Android 10.
Now I installed the app though the APK file.

Benjamin 👨🏻‍💻🕊, that's strange, I've never seen anything like this. It doesn't say something like "not available for this device" either, right? Just "not available"?

@grishka Yes, "Dieser Artikel ist nicht verfügbar." means "This item is not available."

On the Google Play website, it says "This app isn't available for your device", though.

I had the same thing with #SchildiChat (https://schildi.chat/) - a matrix client a while back, maybe someone from there knows what the issue was.

The Google Play Store Page for the official Mastodon App.
The Pages states, "This app isn't available for your device."

Benjamin 👨🏻‍💻🕊, that's strange. I've double checked that the only requirements are a touchscreen and Android 6.0 (or newer). Google Play is sometimes sneaky with this stuff, like it thinks your app requires that the device has a camera if you declare permission to use the camera.
