For those of you running iOS 26, Narwhal now features a sleek new look built with liquid glass. We've worked to tastefully introduce Apple's new design language throughout the app while keeping the Narwhal ethos and core feeling intact. - Action Bar: Now uses liquid glass buttons and groups for your actions. Buttons placed next to each other share a single glass container. Empty buttons become transparent space, letting content show through.

(iOS 26 only) - Side Menu: Narwhal's signature side menu now has a stunning new liquid glass design. (iOS 26 only) - Sort Options: Subreddit and user profile sort bars are now buttons in the top-right corner. The sort button appears to the left of any other top-right buttons you've configured (iOS 26 only). Prefer the old style? Two new settings let you show the sort bar on scroll, just like in iOS 18: "Show sort bar instead of top-right sort button" in Settings > Posts and Settings > User Profiles - Many additional interface elements now use liquid glass, including the overflow (...) menu and the markdown keyboard. (iOS 26 only) - Added a setting to use your theme's primary accent color for liquid glass buttons. (iOS 26 only) - Added a setting to move the iPad post list from the left side to the right side. (iOS 26 only) - Updated ad block list for web posts. Please let us know if you encounter any issues with ads. - The side menu is much more responsive. You can start scrolling immediately while any animations are still running. Bug Fixes: - Blue boxes no longer appear around posts on iPad. - Fixed issue with certain comments being truncated when using larger fonts. - Fixed videos displaying at incorrect sizes on initial load. - Fixed issue where the action bar could appear on top of a message thread. - Fixed issue where canceling a forward navigation swipe prevented that view from appearing on the next attempt.

- Fixes issue causing self text posts and/or comments to not load

- Fixes issue with loading YouTube videos

We heard that many of you are unhappy with the RedGifs changes. Unfortunately, RedGifs has changed their API which forced these changes on Narwhal. However, we were able to make some quick improvments: - Defaults to using the Narwhal video player for RedGifs in Big Preview mode. However, this means that those videos will no longer have audio. If you prefer audio with your RedGifs, there is a new setting in Settings > Posts to prefer the RedGifs embedded video player. - There is a similar setting for how to load RedGifs when opening a post. By default, it uses the RedGifs embedded video player, but you can turn it off to use the old video player, however there will be no audio. - Using the progress bar for RedGifs in big preview mode should be much easier now - Automatically defaults RedGifs to HD - When opening a RedGifs post, it will auto unmute if your "Unmute GIFs in Posts" setting is set to "Always"

The redesigned album/gallery experience is here! We have a few more improvements as well for this release. Stay tuned for moderator tools and other improvements in our next major release. Here is everything new in 2025.3: - We rebuilt albums & galleries from scratch to feature horizontal scrolling similar to the Photos app. Quickly scroll through each photo and tap to enter full screen where you can keep scrolling between photos! - For those of you who prefer the original vertical album user interface, we added a setting in Settings > Post Content to use the original UI - Content Filters now have a settings section. Within you will find the following two new settings: "Do not ask to confirm when adding a filter" and "Deactivate filters". The latter is for when you want to temporarily deactivate your filters to load content as if you didn't have any. Then you can turn the setting back off and your filters are back! - RedGifs changed their API to require video embeds instead of directly showing the video. All RedGifs will now load as a web page embed. Please let us know if you have any issues loading content! - New multi account settings section in Settings > General with two new settings: "Auto refresh home feed when switching accounts" and "Reset app when switching accounts". When on, the accounts list will be dismissed and the app will go back to the home screen. - Shows a lock icon next to post titles for locked posts. Please come visit /r/narwhalapp and post any feedback or feature requests you may have!

Search in comments is here! We have a lot more in the works, but wanted to get these new features in your hands as quickly as possible: - Search for text in comments (and comment authors) using the new "Find in Comments" feature! You will find it in the ... menu or you can add it to your action bar for posts. It will even auto expand comments that you may have collapsed, which include the search phrase. - Translate Reddit content! There is now a translate option in the all menu for comments, long press menu for self post text, and the long press menu for post titles. (Only on iOS 18 and higher). The translate option will show up when content is in another language from the preferred language of your device. - Mute inbox notifications for posts from the ... menu or by long pressing on a post title - Mute inbox notifications for comments from the All swipe action or ... menu - Adds setting to mark posts as read after upvoting/downvoting in Settings > Posts - Automatically upvote posts & comments when saving. Turn this on with two new settings in Settings > Posts and Settings > Comments - Instead of seeing "img" in comments that have image emotes, there will now be a link to view the emote - Adds "Copy Text" option to the context menu when long pressing a post title Bug Fixes: - Fixes an issue that would cause certain Youtube videos to not load - Fixes rare crash that could happen when loading a subreddit - Fixes another rare crash that could happen when opening Narwhal Please come visit /r/narwhalapp and post any feedback or feature requests you may have!

We are finishing out the year with a few bug fixes to address some issues from recent Reddit changes. Our plan is to get some awesome new features out in early 2025. Here are the updates: - Narwhal now has a new default app icon with more color! The icon should have automatically changed back to the previous dark icon so as to not disrupt what you are used to. If you'd like to change the icon, please go to Settings > App Icons - Changes Random, My Random, and other random options to all work locally on device, because Reddit shut down these API features. This also means that My Random will now work for everyone without the need of Reddit Premium. For Random, we generated a list of the top 5,000 subreddits and that is used to pick one to display. - Adds setting to hide post flairs (Settings > Posts) - Adds a few new app icons - Fixes youtube videos playing in the wrong language in some cases - Fixes issue where user flair would be shown on posts when the hide user flair setting is on.

No more scrolling and seeing GIFs that are already halfway done playing! - Settings (including themes!) are now synced to your iCloud account so that if you get a new device or have to re-install, everything will still be customized to your liking. - Adds setting to automatically unmute GIFs/videos in Big Preview mode as you scroll in Settings > Posts - Adds favorites button as an option for the action bar - Adds setting to control mute behavior on GIF posts - App icons will now respond correctly to dark mode.

For those of you who may not like this behavior, there is now a setting to always start GIFs/Videos from the beginning in Settings > Posts - GIFs and videos that are unmuted in Big Preview mode will stay un-muted when you open the post Fixed: - Fixes issue where iOS dictation would insert a weird character that is displayed on reddit.com - Changed some icons for the action bar to ensure continuity in the visual style - Fixes issue where placeholders would be shown with thumbnails turned off We have so much more planned.
