Hello! It's been a minute, hasn't it?  We've been working on some improvements to Big News that we think you'll really like: - A new redesigned app icon that supports iOS 18 tinting and dark mode. - We completely reworked story thumbnails to support even more feeds; more thumbnails for even more stories. - You can now quickly filter stories and channels in the Following and Bookmarks tab. We've also made a number of changes to improve feed refresh times and overall service reliability. Thanks for using Big News!

Just tap the share icon, and tap "Open in Safari. Alternatively long press on the 'reader' icon in the toolbar, and tap "Open in Safari".

Welcome to Big News!  In this update we've improved the share experience with the addition of "Smart Links". Now when you share a story with someone, they can view the story inside of Big News too, even if they don't have the app installed. Smart Links also make it possible to share newsletters that have been sent to you.  Want to go back to sharing the original story link? No problem, just turn off Smart Links in Settings. We also added a "Bookmark" quick action to story notifications. Just tap to save the story for later – neat! Finally we also made some tweaks to the way subscriptions are synced as we know some of you have had difficulties restoring on other devices – we're really sorry about that.  As always if you have any questions or problems please get in touch hello@notsobig.co.
