If you are on Ivory’s TestFlight, you should be able to try out our brand new share sheet on iOS and Mac. It's not perfect, but should be a huge improvement! Give it a try and let us know what you think.

You can access it by going to a page in your browser (or an image in your photo library), hitting the share icon, and then choosing Ivory's icon from the list.

@ivory I'm probably on an earlier Testflight cohort because I don't see the new build but it looks gorgeous and much more usable, thanks!

@WmShakesp3are We occasionally open it up to the public and you have to just wait for those times.

@ivory thanks guys, I've been playing around with it - is it possible to have it autocomplete/search usernames if I @ someone?

Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

@pauls Yea it's possible. We kept it simple for the first round of this and wanted to hear feedback before doing too much. Kind of curious how often people will want to mention someone in a real share situation.

@ivory always used Linky for sharing to Twitter (rip) and use it for Mastodon apps.apple.com/gb/app/linky-fo
My favourite feature is being able to choose what image to use as it lets you choose from whatever you are sharing if there are multiple images available

@ivory Alas I never made it to the Testlight….. :( I still hope…

@ivory can you add alt-text from here? 😁 very excited to see updates to this!

Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

@nickfoster Yes. You can see it the image samples. "Description..." next to the image thumbnails.

@ivory Will it be Shortcuts scriptable, like I can attach an image and such to it?

Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

@tek Are there other apps that allow you to use shortcuts with a share sheet? We are unaware of that. You can use shortcuts with Ivory itself.

Tek say vote

@ivory Probably not. I saw the screenshots and my mind raced ahead of reality.

This is what I was thinking about, though. Here is the shortcut for posting via Mona and Ivory. Mona gives enough options that I can automate some simple processes. I like using Ivory more, but I keep Mona around because of these options.

@ivory Working nicely here via Photo app, Safari, Arc Browser, Threads… etc, via iOS.

@ivory how do I join that TestFlight? I am on an Intel Mac.

Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

@pmcg We open it up to the public once in awhile. Just have to look out for those posts.

Neil Turner

@ivory Oh wow, that looks so much better! Looking forward to it.

Jinwen :toot:

@ivory I can't wait! Is there any chance I could join the test flight again? I use this share function quite often.

Dean Amiridis :clubtwit:

@ivory Looks great! I don’t have access to the new TF :-/

Would love to test Ivory out for you guys; on all devices (Mac/iPad/iPhone)

Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

@deanfx We will occasionally open up access to more users. Just have to keep an eye out for those posts. You can always turn on push notifications for our account as we generally don't spam our followers with a bunch of posts.

Michael Foster

@ivory this is cool! Checking in on the roadmap and just wondered if browse other instances is in the plan for 2024? Hope so!

Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

@michael It's planned, but no timing of when we will get to it.

Michael Foster

@ivory We’re planning something in September for which it would be super-helpful!

@ivory looks great! Ik I’m late lol

How do we get access to the TestFlight?

Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

@jglypt We occasionally open up spots and post about it here. Just have to be on the lookout.

@ivory First of all: Thanks 🙏🏽 for the greatest Mastodon client on iOS :awesome:

There is however one problem that effects my user experience: I often loose all my drafts 🥲 not immediately, but after a day or so. And sometimes I’m loosing just the alt-text for pictures.

Is there something I can try to fix this or is this known?

Thanks for your help and keep on your superb work ✌🏽

@Malaoshi1904 It's a bug that we fixed already, but hasn't been pushed out yet. It will be in the next update.

@ivory Thanks so much for the response 🙏🏽 and the good news. Glad it’s known 🪲 and will be fixed :mastodon:
