What’s new
Version 1.98.2 · Updated September 27, 2026
FEED • "New Yaps Dropped" now only appears for yaps you'll actually see, and never for your own posts. • Yaps you've liked or replied to move down the feed instead of disappearing, so new posts lead and the ones you've seen stay a short scroll away. THE ••• MENU • Every post menu now offers the same options everywhere. Before, the same yap gave you different choices depending on which screen you opened it from. • Replies now have Report, Block and View Profile. • Tribe and forum authors can edit and delete their own posts. • Shouts gained Block, Copy Link and View Profile. • A friend's yaps gained Copy Link, Download, Edit and Delete. SIGNING UP • A username that's already taken can no longer get through signup. • If the username check can't complete, you get a clear "tap to retry" instead of a confusing error. • The Terms and Privacy links now open properly, without losing your progress. • The agreement checkbox turns green when you accept. SPEED AND NAVIGATION • Loading bars count smoothly to 100 instead of jumping. • Discover remembers your place when you open a group or profile and come back. • Startup prompts no longer stack on top of each other. MESSAGES AND PRIVACY • Deleting your account now fully removes your messages, including long conversations that were previously left behind. • Chat tabs are clearer: Direct Messages, then Primary and Requests. ALSO • Long heritage names like "Black American/Soulaan" now wrap instead of running off the card. • Verification no longer reports a failure when it actually succeeded, and phone verification works properly on iOS. • Various layout and wording fixes throughout.
