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

: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.

@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.

:appicon_ivory: Ivory v1.8.3(iOS) is now available on the App Store! This is a tiny release that fixes a couple bugs and fixes some issues we've found when running on VisionOS in compatibility mode. Those of you lucky enough to get a VisionPro in a few days, please let us know if you spot any big issues.

Also, here's a high resolution render of Ivory the elephant for you to enjoy as a desktop background or iOS/iPadOS wallpaper:

@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 by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

:appicon_ivory: Ivory v1.8 is now available to download on the App Store! It features the brand new Explore Tab (which replaces the Search Tab) with much improved search and a new Popular & Trending section. There's also a few new app Icons and some bug fixes.

Download the update here:

@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

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 by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

Ivory v1.7 is here! This release is all about hashtags. It's set to slowly roll out over the next few days, but you can force download it now from our App Store page:

@ivory Ivory is so far ahead of every other app in terms of user experience it’s insane

Senhor Schlauschlau 🪐

@ivory awesome ❤️‍🔥 quick question: what do you think about adding the schuld to sort followed hashtags by popularity?

@ivory please let us add more buttons to the tab bar. Would love to see that before my subscription ends 🥲

Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

Version 1.6.6 for Mac is now available with a bunch of little fixes. We were able to get widgets working in Sonoma as well (unfortunately not in Ventura).

You can download it from the App Store: apps.apple.com/us/app/ivory-fo

@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!

Fernando Meyer

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

Expert Plus 🍀

@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!

:tapbots_logo: :ivory_logo: :ivory_boost:

cottonbureau.com/people/tapbot

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. 🙂

@ivory Woah, wait! What? I should be paying more attention. Are these available for delivery outside the US (e.g. UK)?

:mastodonworld: Caleb

@ivory Just got my stickers. Any idea whether they’ll survive outdoors? Tempted to put the Tapbots logo on my car’s rear window.

Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

Tapbots was founded 15 years ago today! Okay, yesterday to be exact. But to celebrate this moment in our timeline, we are finally releasing some Tapbots and Ivory goods over on Cotton Bureau! So head on over, peruse the merchandise and buy (or don’t buy) something for yourself before they are gone. Either way, we wouldn’t be here today without all of your support, so thank you very much! 🙏

Once updated, just tap the smiley face icon in the compose window to view and select a custom emoji from your server instance.

@ivory kinda strange ux with the new custom emoji. Why hide keyboard? Gif doesn’t?

Arataka

@ivory any plans to add the user signup notification to notifications on Ivory? Seems I am never able to see these specific notis on Ivory.

Ivory for iOS and Mac have both been updated over the weekend! If you haven't gotten it yet, go grab it here:

@ivory I don’t have much to say other than I love this app on all the devices I have it on! 💛💛

Bernd Kilga

@ivory Well, this is it. You now added all the features I ever wanted to have. Thank you so much! You made Mastodon feel like home.

Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

Ivory for Mac will be released tomorrow!

We’ve decided to keep things simple as far as subscriptions go. If you paid for “Premier”, you’ll automatically get access to the Mac app as we have changed “Premier” to “Universal”.

If you paid for “Pro”, you’ll get the same access to “iOS + iPadOS”.

If you upgrade to “Universal”, your sub date will reset and you’ll be refunded the remainder of your Pro subscription.

@ivory my onboarding was a tad confusing. Is there a way to detect the existing iOS sub to make the (successful) leap a bit more informed? UX is “great I’m spending $25 and probably orphaning my previous $$”

The Chaotic Good 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈🖖

@ivory awesome! Loving it! God a bug on Intel Macs… namely that the column layout isn’t persistent between reboots. need more info?

Andy Ibanez

@ivory where do I see all this Premier and Universal stuff? In the subscription settings I can’t find a plan a plan that gives me access to all three devices.

Ivory for iOS/iPadOS 1.4 is out on the App Store! It will slowly roll out over the next few days, but if you want it now, go to the App Store and manually update.

Our next task is getting the Mac app out and then we will continue with the items on our public roadmap: tapbots.com/ivory/#roadmap
