@ivory It still doesn’t support Mac OS keyboard replacement thingie dings. You said you would do that! I know Catalyst is rough but come on.

AndyHat

@ivory Oh, no! Did you intentionally drop support for iOS 15 on iPhone? I'm still happily using my 7 Plus, so I can't upgrade past 15.8.4.

@ivory any plans to make it so i can sign in to ivory with my threads account?

@ivory Any progress on the feature to browse other instances?

Joseph Leedy :magento:

@ivory “Various bug fixes” is such an asinine statement to read in release notes, especially after you did such a good job of describing the new features. 😞

Paweł Orzech

@ivory did you get rid of the icons? I lost mine! And I love it. Can't find them in settings now.

Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

Ivory's upcoming new navigation design is currently available to test on TestFlight!

While the design of the navigation bar has changed over the years, the core concept of how it functioned has been the same since Tweetbot v1.0 way back in 2011! We've redesigned and rebuilt Ivory’s navigation system from the ground up to be faster, easier to use, and more configurable.

This will ship in Ivory v2.2 along with some other great new features!

@ivory it would also be great if there was an option to disable swipe gestures on posts as I always try to navigate back with the side swipe and most of the times I accidentally actiave the reply on a random post.

Tek say vote

@ivory This looks amazing and I can’t wait to try it! But I do so wish Home, Local, and Federated could also be on separate tabs. I’m on an instance where the local timeline is an active community and it’s kind of a pain to switch between Home and Local.

Francesco Ambrosini :woem:

@ivory previous layout preferred by far.
three dots icon is so ugly compared with everything else in this stylish app.
Sorry 🖖

@ivory I hope you and your family are well and in good health😃. I am writing to ask for your support in reblogging my pinned post on my page❤🙏. We talk about our story in Gaza and the difficult life we ​​live now in light of the absence of the minimum necessities of life and hunger, and also about my father, who suffers from bladder cancer and is in urgent need of treatment, and our house that was destroyed. My wife was killed in the war

@ivory do you know why I get an error when I click on the link to a Mastodon post in this post? dair-community.social/@KimCray

links in other posts work (like this one hachyderm.io/@mekkaokereke/112, which is linking to a different post on the exact same Mastodon instance)

screenshot of the error:

edit: it was because I had one of the words in the post ("twitter”) muted, once I unmuted that word it worked

Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

A few new things to check out in TestFlight for our beta testers. The iOS/iPadOS TestFlight update is out now. Still waiting for Apple to approve the version for Mac (hopefully by the end of the day).

@ivory could you please let me know if you need more iOS beta testers?

kaiserkiwi :kiwibird:

@ivory Any chance we will get additional fonts? Especially a font where a lower case L looks like an L instead of an I.

Some apps on iOS use the font "Seravek" which I really enjoy. It's also available in Reader Mode in Safari.

Maybe this would be an option for better readability?

Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

Ivory v2.0 is now available on the App Store! If you don't see it in your updates list right away, you can download the update here: apps.apple.com/us/app/ivory-fo

@ivory Thank you! A suggestion: it would be nice to be able to set a different accent color for each account.

Colin Devroe

@ivory I read through the replies and I didn't see anyone else ask this (so, it is likely just me). Is the primary purpose of a hashtag list so that I can unfollow tags and clean up my home feed? Do they sync across devices? (It doesn't appear they do.)

Thank you!

Fish

@ivory do the new hashtag lists sync across iCloud?

Or do I need to duplicate them across devices manually?

Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

The hashtags tab has received a makeover and now includes the ability to create Hashtag Lists! Curate multiple hashtags into a single timeline that you can access the same way you can access regular Lists. Currently available to try on Mac and iOS over on TestFlight.

The last beta featured our new share sheet extension and we know it’s been a long wait for the App Store release, but we are almost there! Trying to finish up a few more tasks so we can get this big update out ASAP.

@ivory btw when will this come to the main app? Tried the TestFlight and I couldn’t see anything wrong with it from my end.

Drea

@ivory Hashtag lists are a wonderful feature. It’s been in @IceCubesApp for some time and it makes using Mastodon so much more enjoyable. Really glad you’re adding it in. Hope other Mastodon apps follow as well.

Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

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

@ivory looks great! Ik I’m late lol

How do we get access to the TestFlight?

Malaoshi.190️⃣4️⃣ :verified:

@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 ✌🏽

:appicon_ivory: Ivory v1.8.4 is now available on the app store. Here's the link to download: apps.apple.com/us/app/ivory-fo

Have you been receiving a bunch of spam? This is an emergency release with a custom filter added to the Filters tab (scroll to the bottom of that tab) to mute spam mentions. Turn this filter on and it should catch most of them. This will not stop spam push notifications.

We are still finishing up the big Quote Posts update so appreciate your patience on that one! 🙏

@ivory Thanks!

Suggestion: you might want to exclude figma (and possibly other ones à la Dropbox) URLs.

@ivory fyi, I had to click on your link in order to see the actual update page on the App Store.
I did check beforehand if the app was listed as available for update and was not shown as such. You may want to look into it and see why the App Store is not notifying Ivory app users of the recent update availability.

DELETED

@ivory Are there any plans to build an Android application?

Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

We are closer to shipping Ivory v1.9! The big feature for this release is the ability to quote posts. If you'd like to test it out, jump back on the TestFlight version of Ivory. We've opened up some more TestFlight beta slots here as well:

testflight.apple.com/join/AOOy

Important Note!
The TestFlight version of Ivory doesn't use your active App Store subscription. You have to subscribe again in TestFlight. You do not get charged real money in TestFlight. It's for testing purposes only.

@ivory Download of videos is a reason I still use toot! instead of Ivory. Is there anything planned?

Stephen Coles

@ivory Is there a way to reveal counts (rather than percentages), perhaps on tap? Or is that not supported by Mastodon?

Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

If you are part of our TestFlight Beta, we pushed update 1.8.1 which features completely revamped polls and a few other things. Give it a shot and let us know your thoughts!

No new TestFlight openings, but we are working hard to get this release finished and out to everyone!

*Note about TestFlight Subs: TestFlight doesn't read your app store sub and so you must subscribe in TestFlight if it asks. No real money is transferred as it's just a test environment.

@ivory The multiple choice polls are working quite nice. 😊
For the mono theme I first thought: Cool, I like the Threads theme. But within Ivory it doesn't really work nice for me. Maybe because of the optical expectations. But I feel like I can't distinguish between links/hashtags and normal text.

Oh and I still miss those beautiful digital icons that were available only in one 1.8 beta. 😁

Jason Stoff

@ivory I've noticed a UI issue on iPad Mini (iOS 17.3b2) using the latest Ivory 1.8.1 build — the "Search" field on the Explore tab has a weird color treatment in both light and dark modes.

Sean C.

@ivory loving the new polls format -- A LOT!

@ivory Very nice update! The one thing Ivory desperately needs is proper thread support.

Sesame Squirrel

@ivory disliking your new Explore feature intensely -- among other changes -- and will NOT be renewing Ivory in June.

Each update has left me more dissatisfied than the prior version.

Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

We just want to say thank you so much to MacStories and their readers/members who provided such an honorable award. It definitely came as a shock! Also thanks to all of our customers who stuck with us through this tough year. We have a lot of great things coming up in the pipeline and wanted to share a quick teaser image of what's coming soon.

We hope everyone has a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

@ivory Congratulations, and well-deserved! I do love Ivory, but don’t use it at the moment because: no quote-post feature. It’s on your published timeline, but how soon are we likely to get it?

Using @MonaApp for now, but likely would switch once quote-posts hits. (And I’m intending on renewing my subscription when it comes up, knowing quote-posts is coming.)

Ivory makes Mastodon #1 for Mac, iPhone & iPad.

One question: on iPad and only on mastodon. social I get a red window upper center for 5 seconds reading “BOSTS ONLY”. What does this indicate?

@ivory hurrah. I would like to complain that choosing "About Ivory” does not show the version number, which it ought to. That is the main reason to look there.

Whoops: guess what's in the release notes!

@ivory can we get the ability to use custom fonts both on ios and mac?

@ivory yo folks, you guys are awesome and doing a great job, except, that there's one problem....I can't try your app.

I am an #Android user.

But I want to try your app.

I am a Linux user as well.

I don't have a Mac or iPhone - any.

Soooo....mind do a release for Android and Linux Mint?

Thank you very much. Love your app already only by seeing screenshots and video reviews of it on YouTube.

Last chance to grab one of these fine shirts! This campaign ends tomorrow. On the bright side, if you already ordered one, they should be getting printed soon!

Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

7 days left to order one of these shirts before they are gone! These are screen-printed which means they will last longer than the on-demand shirts, but only have a 2-week ordering period. We also have more shirt colors than just black...which is unusual for us. 🙂
