Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

New Early Access website is up which shows our current roadmap. It’s not a comprehensive list, but it will give you an idea of where our main focus is. We will update the list as we go.

@ivory wanting an invite bad 😮‍💨😮‍💨

carter

@ivory I live in Tweetbot still so I’m super eager to try it out :)

Garvin Hicking

@ivory OMG the last list item 🤩🥰 I'm gonna hold my breath for it!!! Are roughly 10 minutes gonna do it???

FR_Jess

@ivory new spots incoming for TestFlight ?

Ville :apple_retro_logo:

@ivory I have been waiting for this! Love it! Thank you!

[DATA EXPUNGED]
Sven

@ivory 🚀 Can I hope for another batch of invites for the beta?

Camron Flanders

@ivory suggested edit on the page,

Add comma after Tweetbot:
“Ivory is a brand new app that brings 10 years of experience building the award-winning Twitter app, Tweetbot, over to Mastodon.”

Chri⚡️tian :apple_inc:

@ivory Loving the app so far! I'm happy to see that custom emojis are coming. Keep the good work!

MsPraxis

@ivory I can’t wait for this! I am a big fan of Tweetbot but obviously I won’t be using it any more. I really look forward to downloading Ivory! I keep missing out on beta testing spots but I’m happy to wait. Love your work!

Zaher Ghaibeh

@ivory just wondering how you are going to price it.

If you have decided and care to share

Carlos Fonseca

@ivory Had to scroll down a lot on my 2560px screen lool

David McCormick

@ivory love how much line-height there is for the body copy on that site — nice and easy to read 🤡

Nic Hagan

@ivory Don’t want to slow down iOS development at all, but when is the Mac app showing up on the roadmap? That would be the biggest game changer for me personally.

Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

@nichagan this is the iOS roadmap. Mac app news will come. I suggest following @todd as he’s the developer for it. 🙃

DELETED

@ivory @nichagan @todd Big same here! Still haven’t found a good Mac client. Tweetbot on Mac is the only way I ever look at Twitter these days because it’s always open and wonderful.

Don MacDonald

@ivory @nichagan @todd Awesome! Really looking forward to the Mac client, and loving the iOS version so far!!

Marco :prami:

@ivory will the Mac Version be included in the subscription fee or will it be a separate purchase?

Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

@esamecar it’s separate, but there will be bundled discounts.

Jyrki :jyrki:🐾:heart_nb:

@ivory awesome! this roadmap contains pretty much everything* i still miss from the app :D

* still would like to see a way to accept/deny follow requests, maybe have some nice features for admins (e.g. notifications for reports and new sign ups), and maybe (just maybe, don't think any mastodon app does this yet) proper displaying of formatted toots implemented by a bunch of mastodon forks such as glitch-soc

Simon 🌻

@ivory Looks great.
Are you planning on having a Mac app?

David Harrison

@ivory Thanks for the added detail. I have to admit to compulsively checking TestFlight for new builds!

FlatFootFox

@ivory Looks like a great roadmap! It covers the shortlist of things I’m looking for at the moment.

Philip Mallegol-Hansen

@ivory The bottom of the page contains a link to the Mac version page, which is blank. What a teaser 😉

daniel s.

@ivory when you need desktop testers let us know!

Rev Nathan DeMay Ⓥ

@ivory this makes me so happy! I have been a Tapbots devotee for a long time.

Leon Cowle

@ivory You have a better looking website for an alpha/beta product that most have for their live apps/products. Wow. Nicely done.

Mike 🇨🇦🇳🇱

@ivory Looking forward to it, but seriously...you haven't fixed the name yet? Ivory doesn't suggest elephant, it suggests dead elephant.

Eudes Corrêa :verified_rj:🇧🇷

@ivory looks like ivory for macOS still far far away, but let’s go on iOS first

Kenn White

@ivory my biggest wishlist is bundled/grouped notifications. Rooting for y'all!

Daniel 🕊

@ivory would love to test this on iOS and / or macOS 🤩

Jim Lipsey

@ivory Appreciate the transparency. But also, if you took the beta gold today in its current form, I’d happily pay for it and would consider it a polished, complete app.

Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

@localhost we plan to launch before the list is complete as Early Access and continue our work forward. Just want to tie up a few loose ends before we do. 🙂

ernmander :AudioMo:

@ivory shame the iOS beta is full. This site though looks great

Thomas Blätte

@ivory thanks, great to see the rough roadmap. I’m loving Ivory already! If you get to it, I have two suggestions for (further down) the roadmap:

- adding/browsing local timelines of other servers (including follow/like/boost their posts from your current instance)

- setting the focus point of an image when posting (which determines how clients crop the image and keep the focus point in view), and using the focus point when displaying posts with images in them.

Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

@tblaette those are already on our list. 🙂 just not on the website. Adding all the small details would make the page go on forever. 🙃

Carlos Sierra 🌹

@ivory Question, is there an Ivory beta program for Mac? And how can I access it?

Molly

@ivory Not sure if you intended to have a blank page there, but in case you did not: tapbots.com/ivory/mac/

⟦ˈmartiːn ˈʃtaɪ̯n⟧ :tblogo:

@ivory Nothing hidden on the white Ivory4mac page. Dammit! 😁

Brian

@ivory Just a heads up that this link at the bottom is dead and you may want to remove it or toss a photo up or something to avoid confusion (and stop people asking you for the Mac app)

<Mac app when?>

TK_UK

@ivory I don’t understand why when I share posts to iMessage or other channels, it doesn’t show the content but it just provides a link so people can’t read it in line without clicking. That seems like a highly desirable features but I don’t see any Mastodon app to date.

Seishonagon@Hostux

@ivory duplicate boost suppression: such a simple, elegant and SOOOOO useful idea!

Jason Beaird

@ivory Exciting roadmap and I'm loving all the unique features you all have already added - like that "Filter User From Home" toggle on Add/Remove from Lists 🔥

BRB, Off to share the new site on Twitter.

Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

@AlliFlowers it will be on the App Store soon. We are trying to tie up a few loose ends first.

Bill Taroli :neurodiversity:

@ivory THANK YOU! Love to know what’s coming and love the things on the list.

One thing. I actually LIKE the unfiltered notification actions view and use it INSTEAD of the mentions view.

It’s been really humming for me. Is there any area you’d like folks testing on harder for now…?

Alejandro Martinez

@ivory “Suppress duplicate boosted posts” this is so needed!

Senhor Schlauschlau 🪐

@ivory 🥰🥰🔥 and there’s just so much more you guys already made work (list-management, gif-search, drafts, …!)

Steve Leighton

@ivory Suppress duplicate boosted toots FTW! Will be transformative. 🥳

wyldkard

@ivory Are quote-boosts/toots on the roadmap?

Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

@wyldkard we are waiting to see what Mastodon officially does on the server/API side. But if they take awhile, it’s a possibility.

Bill Taroli :neurodiversity:

@ivory @wyldkard I’m honestly in camp “meh” about quotes. I get that some folks love them. But I personally find myself more engaged in threads without them.

Shawn King

@ivory “Suppress duplicate boosted posts” YES PLEASE! 😀

Jesse Saenz

@ivory extremely excited to see where this app can go. Thank you

egghat НетBойне :verified:

@ivory This will be my personal killer feature:
„Suppress duplicate boosted posts“

🙃 ɐıunp zsɐɯoʇ 🚌:php:

@ivory When are you planning another recruitment for the beta?

Dennis

@ivory Ivory has been an absolute joy to use even in this early stage. I’ll happily pay when it’s ready for public launch.
To me, there’s only one thing I’m so (im)patiently waiting for: being able to edit posts, which I see you have on the road map!

Kim Mi

@ivory Really looking forward to #ivory and #tweetbot in the future 😃

Dan Seaman

@ivory "suppress duplicate boosted posts" yes... YES!

Scott Wright 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

@ivory Love that roadmap!
The current App though incomplete is fantastic

I hope this is an appropriate place to ask y'all to consider a feature: Ability (maybe pref) to expand CWs inline such that I don't have to go back to home timeline when I'm done (I would've never left). I current have expand all CWs enabled, but I'd prefer to pick & choose w/o leaving home timeline.

Thomas

@ivory will there be plans for a Mac client as well?

Scott Wright 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

@ivory while I'm giving feedback, I'd prefer to have the BM action available inline. To me its way more frequently used than the share action.

Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

@jswright61 hold down on the fave icon. Or you can swap the fave icon for bm in the behavior settings.

multigreg

@ivory @jswright61 I love this setting to swap them. It means I can’t make any public actions by mistake in one tap (with boost confirmations also enabled). A long press reveals the Favorite action.

Quico Moya

@ivory

You missed a comma: “the award-winning Twitter app, Tweetbot over to Mastodon.” ➡️ “the award-winning Twitter app, Tweetbot, over to Mastodon.”

Bill Taroli :neurodiversity:

@ivory @quico the build pave slowed, so I expected there was heavy lifting going on. I’m not finding new problems so I’m really impressed. Can’t wait to see what’s next!

Supership 79

@ivory one thing i haven't found on many clients is the ability to run multiple accounts on one instance - will Ivory support that??

Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

@Supership79 you can. When you add another account and get the mastodon login view, you just need to hit the logout button in the top right corner and enter your other account. We use it.

Supership 79

@ivory switching without logging out/logging in though? the way i can quickly switch between accounts on different instances?

Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

@Supership79 when you hit add new account in our settings, type your instance name and if it already shows this view, hit the icon I marked in red.

Matt Quick :unverified:

@ivory Any chance I can get the hookup on an invite code?

David K

@ivory great to see it take another step towards launch!!

How do I go about getting access to the early access version?

Jodrell

@ivory I was wondering if you’d considered a unified client that did Mastodon and Twitter in a single timeline?

Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

@Jodrell no that won’t ever happen. They are way too different.

Jodrell

@ivory but they look exactly the same ;-)

Jodrell

@ivory I was kinda joking…but I guess I mean it’s two different protocols, it they’re both timelines of peoples feed posts ordered by time sent. Chuck a way to add RSS feeds into the timeline and you’d have a brilliant unified client :-)

Kevin Yank

@ivory “Suppress duplicate boosted posts” can be done per-post with the native filters in Mastodon. Hoping you’ll add a nice UI for us to add posts to a “seen it” filter.

Jippi 🇩🇰

@ivory @paul any plans for adding support for admin/moderation notifications? (sign-ups and reports) only reason why I haven't been able to drop Toot! entirely yet :)

DELETED

@ivory what I want to know most is when will you be ready to take my money?

Feynman 🔴

@ivory great but can't join the beta so far. 😂

Ellen Teapot 🇨🇦🏳️‍⚧️

@ivory Thanks for sharing. Early access has been great!

If you’re considering additional custom app icons, I would love to see a trans 🏳️‍⚧️ version of the lovely Pride icons you already have

Robin Burchell

@ivory suppress duplicate boosted posts, yes please ❤️

Mike Cohen

@ivory do you plan to have a unified profile including boosts, like the official app, instead of a separate tab?

Mike Cohen

@ivory it shows the boosts mixed in with other posts instead of a separate tab.

Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

@mikec415 ah ok. Probably? We plan to redo how all that works in the future.

Thomas Blätte

@ivory @mikec415 oh, I found it so useful that Ivory would put the boosts in a separate tab on the profile screen. Everybody has a different taste, I guess. BTW, a media tab like in Metatext would be nice too. 😉

Joshua Hürzeler

@ivory My personal ranking of the Feature list (most wanted missing featuers):
1. Edit Post
2. suppress duplicate boosted posts
3. Support for custom instance emoji

Dave Klein

@ivory love it! when will the macOS app TestFlight be available?

Andy Fragen

@ivory is it possible to filter posts by language? I would love to be able to purge my timeline of posts that I can’t read. I know this is a me problem. 😞

Andy Fragen

@ivory Awesome 🙌 just knowing it’s on the TODO list is enough.

w00tdude

@ivory looking forward to the day I can pay for the release version!

Odin

@ivory The half-page header is quite the design choice :P

udondan

@ivory Can we please invert the list? 😃 Multiple boosts of the same thing is my biggest problem with Mastodon (which could be solved client side)

🐾 Jordan 🐾 🔜 Megaplex

@ivory Hoping for an Android release in the future :)

Kat

@ivory all i need to make Ivory my only app is to be able to access the post privacy options on the compose screen on iphone mini 😅

please tell me it’s on the list, because i keep accidentally making unlocked posts and having to re-post them from web 😱

eurozerozero

@ivory I know the "new post" view is still a work in progress, but does the current roadmap include being able to set the language of a post?

(lots of people post in more than one language and Mastodon can filter by language, so it's important to be able to set it)
