Hoping this next update is good. I’ve tried to fix a number of things with the post composer, account switching, crashing. It feels much faster and smoother.

I’m also making positive progress on the MLS group chats, they will probably make it in with an experimental warning.

I’ve been a bit quiet on this account for a while, just like to thank people still using it and sticking around. I appreciate all the help and feedback. I tried to do some large-scale refactoring lately, and I’m just tightening things up. I’ve hopefully improved a number of things…

if you’re curious to try the @blackskyweb.xyz AppView, here’s how you can change your service after logging in:

The update is on TestFlight now. I’m seeing new bugs already, but you should be able to log in!

Catbird has unfortunately also been hit with this! I'm working on pushing out a fix now.

Some things hopefully coming soon to Catbird:
- timeline more like the official app
- local on-device drafts
- feed interactions (show more or less like this) on supported feeds
- better list handling; pinned lists will display properly as feeds!
- push notifications will filter moderation lists

If anyone is having issues signing in after a while, there seems to be a bug on reauthenticating stale sessions that I need to fix; in the meantime, if you’re able to access the Account Switcher you can delete the account (by swiping) and try signing in again. That should work, if not let me know!

Seems to be back up, hoping the server doesn’t die again. Sorry for the flakiness there

Just pushed out an update! Trying to polish and implement bug fixes; let me know if you have any issues after updating! iOS is out now on TestFlight and MacOS update should be out soon.

Notification server was dead... should be back up now. You can adjust notification preferences in settings, and your user post notification/activity subscriptions should start coming through!

Just pushed out an update! For devices with Apple Intelligence turned on, trending topics now include a short summary of the topic based on posts in the feed!

Notification server has been down most of the day, working on upgrading it to support post notifications. Should hopefully have it back up tomorrow with a new build of the app with some bugs fixed. Thanks to everyone for sticking around!

Working on polishing things up throughout the app. Anything you’d like to see? Features or tweaks? Any suggestions? Feedback is always welcome!

New update is out! Fixes a number of bugs and crashes. Hopefully music should keep playing even if you scroll past a video. Bluesky’s upcoming Bookmarks have been added too! You can view them by tapping the button at the bottom of the feed drawer. Still buggy but getting better!

I finally put out an update for my app to get ready for iOS 26 and I added lots of other stuff for my app: testflight.apple.com/join/8zPe2QG8

lots of stuff still broken/wrong but I'm liking how it's coming along. Drag to reorder feeds, voice notes (needs work), post GIFs from your phone as videos

Thanks to everyone sending feedback and crash reports! I worked on ironing out some bugs today and I’ll be addressing everything ASAP.
