What’s new
Version 1.8.1 · Updated October 7, 2026
- Favorites timeline. - Option to add media from the camera or the file picker. - You can now drag and drop images into the composer. - Tapping a post on the reactions screen now opens it and loads its replies. - Improved pasting images into the composer: more image types are supported, as well as the iOS 27 keyboard paste suggestion. - The post composer exit confirmation now appears only if something would be lost. - When voting on a poll you've already voted on, the app now reloads the poll after showing the error, so it shows the correct state. - Links that aren't web links (like mailto:) now open in the right app instead of the in-app browser. - Fixed cached posts could create duplicate posts, which caused crashes during navigation. - Fixed a post draft could be created after the post was already submitted. - Fixed posts whose quoted post failed to load didn't show that there was a quoted post. - Fixed uploaded images had no file extension, which caused some servers (like Pleroma) to not display them for other users. - Fixed the draft restore prompt sometimes appeared while you were already writing a post. - Fixed a previously opened keyboard could offset the bottom menu from the bottom of the screen. - Fixed restoring your synced timeline position when the post you were on isn't loaded (for example a boost seen on another device). - Fixed restored draft media from another account didn't upload if it was still processing.
