Hi! In this version, we’ve added new episode notifications that adapt to your usage, a search field in the podcast episode list, and a pull-to-refresh gesture on the Home tab to update the new episode counts for your favorite podcasts. We also added a quick-return button in case you skip forward or backward too much on the main player screen, along with a smoother animation on the Discovery tab. The update also resolves a progress synchronization issue in the iPhone Control Center and ensures that audio pauses when entering the Discovery screen. Additionally, podcast importing has been improved, and the white border at the top of shared images has been removed. For current Loop users, new episode notifications can be enabled in settings via the new menu below the storage menu. Thank you for using Loop and for all your support!

Hello! This version fixes minor bugs related to accessibility labels on some buttons that caused Loop to crash and close immediately when used. Additionally, it updates the beta version icon to the Loop standard in settings and adds translations for some texts that had been missed. The bug that caused an invalid icon to be displayed in the suggestions menu when generating suggestions for new collections, resulting in an icon picker failure, has also been fixed. Thank you for continuing to use Loop and for all your support!

The update everyone has been waiting for has arrived! What’s new in v2.2? • New Design: A refreshed visual style aligned with the Liquid Glass language (iOS 26), improving usability across the entire app. • New Tabs: The Podcasts tab is now split into Home and Library, optimizing management and discovery of what to listen to and what matters most. • Library: Manage favorites and now pinned items, and create Collections — lists that automatically play the latest episodes from your podcasts (ideal for daily news). • Home Tab: View in-progress episodes, pinned items, and optionally sections by interest categories. Your privacy is respected: categories are not used for tracking. • New Episode Indicators: Quickly see how many new episodes your favorites have via the cover indicator. • Import/Export: Easy migration to and from other players with OPML file support. • Smart Search (iOS 26+): On devices with Apple Intelligence, ask Loop to find podcasts by topic (e.g., “Loop, find podcasts about ancient Greece”). • AI Suggestions: When creating a collection, Loop uses Apple Intelligence to suggest names, colors, and icons with one tap. • Description Translation: Discover global content by translating foreign podcast descriptions into your language. • Main Player: Swipe the cover up to view notes, see chapters along the progress bar, and use the new dedicated volume bar. • Chapters: Visual chapter support with varying artwork throughout the app and on the lock screen. • Sharing: Share what you're listening to directly to Instagram Stories. • New Onboarding: A quick 3-step tutorial and new welcome screen for new users. • Quick Actions: Tap and hold the app icon to access the Library, Search, or send feedback. • New Languages: Simplified Chinese, German, Korean, Japanese, Danish, Spanish (Spain), Finnish, Dutch, Norwegian, Russian, and Swedish. Additionally, several improvements were made to playback, playlists, offline downloads, and other bug fixes.

Following the same user experience as Loop for iOS, the Apple Watch version also offers: ∙ Favorite synchronization using iCloud. ∙ Download episodes to listen later. ∙ Playback control using gestures on the “Now Playing” screen: swipe left to right to rewind and right to left to fast forward, tap on the episode cover that’s playing, or use Double Tap (compatible with Apple Watch Series 9 and later and Apple Watch Ultra 2) to pause or resume playback! And other features inherited from Loop for iOS. More features will be available in future updates! Bug fix (iOS): ∙ When pausing and resuming playback using the iPhone’s Now Playing, the progress would become unsynchronized compared to the progress shown in the app. Thank you to everyone who downloaded Loop and for all the support!
