@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.

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! 🙏

:badge_important: Ivory now supports custom instance emoji on :device_imac: (Mac) and :device_iphone: :device_ipad: (iOS/iPadOS)!

The update will roll out over the next few days, but you can grab it now here:
:appicon_ivory: apps.apple.com/us/app/ivory-fo

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?

@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 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.

apps.apple.com/us/app/ivory-fo

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

@ivory Looking forward to the Mac version for sure!

Adam Leventhal

@ivory I’ve really liked the early access and bought an annual subscription today. Thanks for making a great app!

jake (he/him) 🇵🇸

@ivory bring back the old media viewer! i wish i didn’t update!

Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

Want to help us test out new features before they go live? We are re-opening up a few TestFlight spots for the iOS version of Ivory.

testflight.apple.com/join/HWqc

Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

Sorry all. The Mac build stopped working because we didn't push an update out for awhile. Just a TestFlight thing. New build is out and should be working again if you update.

Also we are getting closer to releasing Ivory v1.4 for iOS and finishing up a few final things for the Mac App Store release. We appreciate your patience on this!

@ivory Do you know why the MAS builds don't send emails like other TestFlight apps? The “push notifications" option doesn't seem to work for the MAS (at least on my computer) so I tend to miss the updates if they don't email.

Thomas Schindler

@ivory Good to hear. By the way: Will the final macOS version also be working on Monterey?

Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

Keyword Filter Tip:
Sometimes simple keywords pick up longer words. If you add a keyword filter for “Elon”, it will also filter posts with the word "belong" or "felony".

Solution:
Regular Expressions. Go to your filters tab by holding down on one of the last 3 tab buttons. Add Keyword and enter \(space)yourkeyword(space). You should also see a new "Regex" option appear when you hit that backslash. Turn that on. Test your results by scrolling down and checking "Matching Posts”.

@ivory I love this, but maybe something for the non-regex-fluent among us? like a “word" checkbox that adds word boundary stuff to the original version?

@ivory has ivory been removed from testflight?

@ivory hot damn, i like the new column adding button on ivory for mac. I MISSED THIS.

Les Orchard

@ivory

The ability to read alt/description text on an image is coming next.

FWIW, I'd also really like to be able to see the image while I'm writing alt-text. That's been kind of a showstopper for me using ivory

Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

Ivory v1.1 is now out on the App Store!

@ivory is now a good time to jump off the TestFlight and stay on the App Store?

@ivory no icon on the Home Screen for Ivory. I uninstalled/reinstalled and still no luck.

@ivory I had Tweetbot on everything, but then I got bored of Twitter, then Elon fucked it & I got interested because the wife was, now she’s not.. at least the code is mobile, I’m not your target audience am I.. 🥰

Corentin Cras-Méneur

@ivory do you want bug reports through Testflight directly? (I just sent one, but I two some devs. are not fans on how they get those and would rather have testers use other means)

André Claaßen

@ivory Beta Test is full. What is the anticipated release date for the MacOS Version?

Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

Some of you with active subscriptions have reported issues with the app thinking you aren't subscribed or unable to "Restore Purchases" on another family device. This is because Apple is currently having some issues with Receipt Verification. We will try to fix this temporarily on our end until Apple sorts the issue out. Thanks for your patience!

@ivory still have this issue!? When will this be resolved ??? cc @pankajkapoor

Benjamin Carlsson

@ivory I subscribed thinking I hadn’t yet, how can I know if I have a duplicate sub now? I do only see one receipt in my inbox so maybe it’s just a coincidence my trial expired during the outage, but I’d like to make sure.

Michele Neylon

@ivory any fix for this? I paid for an annual sub and now cannot use it

Hello Friends,

Wanted to make a note that our current roadmap is on our website: tapbots.com/ivory/#roadmap

We are a small company of 3 people and only 1 of us replies on this account. Between all the emails and messages here, it's hard to always answer everyone, but we do our best. If your question doesn't get answered here, it's not because we don't care. It's just impossible to always be around to answer everyone. Feel free to send us an email if you don’t get a response here. Thank you! 🙂

@ivory is a native visionOS app in the works? Thanks!

Julia Evans

@ivory is there any way to see just the regular posts (not posts and replies) for an account when I click "View All Posts" on the account page?

by default it seems to show both posts and replies, which makes it really hard to scroll down and find an older post I'm looking for from an account

Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

Say Hello to Ivory. We are now available to all on Apple’s App Store! We have launched as “Early Access” because we still have a lot of exciting plans ahead of that will make Ivory even better. Go download it, try it free for 7 days, and experience it for yourself!

@ivory Will you be making a windows version as well?

John Dillworth

@ivory I want to pay for the app. Did I have to remove it, and test flight and reinstall? That’s fine. I just don’t want to have test flight installed unless I have to. Thanks

Explosive Ennui

@ivory Still pushing the subscription model? I’ll pass.

Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

Hello friends around the Indian/Pacific Oceans. Don't say we never think about you because we've saved the last 1000 test flight spots left for you! No, really, we have no more spots to give out after these.

But don't worry because we are working hard to ship Ivory as “Early Access” on the App Store before the end of the month. So it won't be long before anyone who wants to give it a try, can. And again, please forgive us for not being able to respond to everyone. 🙏

As some of you may have heard, Tweetbot is currently unable to authenticate with Twitter which currently has a huge impact on our business. Only mentioning this because we are going to be busy putting out fires and trying to get Ivory on the App Store ASAP. So it will be harder to answer your questions. However you can read our current roadmap for Ivory here: tapbots.com/ivory/

Also, here are 1000 more testflight openings for now. Thanks for all of your support! 🙏

I'm totally spamming the refresh button on the TestFlight site until I can get in.

@ivory I use Mastadon every day. I'd really like to get into the beta if a spot opens, thanks!

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 can you please add “select language when posting” to the roadmap? Not all world speaks English, and this is a great Mastodon feature for people outside 🇺🇸

Ivory by Tapbots :emoji_wink:

We plan to open up 2000 more TestFlight spots Tomorrow, Thursday, January 5th. The time with the most votes will be the time we open up access to them. The times are based on CST (GMT-6). We will post the TestFlight link before the winning time.

We intentionally left out the option to revert back to the previous hidden action buttons in the timeline so we could get a sense of what you thought. Preference seems pretty evenly split so we will be adding back the previous way to access post actions as an option in the next build. Thanks for all the feedback! 🙂

@ivory I just switched to the drawer again since it has always been a personal preference, and…

I checked my favourite posts out of curiousity and having those buttons out in the open made me unintentionally favourite plenty. I guess I must use the drawer. 😅
