NEW • Follow a post's conversation: with Skeets Pro, the bell next to a bookmark tells you about replies and quotes. Long-press it to add likes and reposts. • Notification filters: All, Mentions, Subscriptions, Bookmarks, Quotes and Follows. • Choose your content languages: feeds show posts in the languages you pick, or in every language. • Auto-translate is faster, shows how far along it is ("Translating 12 of 30…") and offers to download the languages it needs. • Refreshing Following or a list fills in what you missed, with fewer "Load more" rows. FIXED • Lists jumped back up when a post with a photo gallery came into view, so you couldn't scroll past it. • The end of the Quotes list and of a profile's lists jumped back to the 50th post. • Bookmarks took a long time to open when you had many; they now load a page at a time. • Removing your last bookmark could clear your muted words. • Videos sometimes opened full screen without their controls. • Tips kept coming back after you closed them. • Mentions could be missing from notifications. • Search showed posts by accounts you muted. • Counts under an opened post could be cut off ("Lik…"). • Liking or reposting from a notification failed for some notifications. • The app could freeze at launch or while handling notifications. • A post waiting to retry its upload now says so. • The "(Edited …)" note covered the post's text. • Dragging a saved feed in the feeds editor could move a different one. • iPad: a blank screen after launch, a leftover composer window, top buttons under the status bar and a missing account picture are fixed. • VoiceOver names the profile's Settings button and says which picture of a gallery is showing. CHANGED • Bookmarks belong to the account that made them. Bookmarks from before this version stay with every account.

NEW • Skip the photo filter screen: a single photo goes straight into your post. Settings → Composer. FIXED • You could be signed out if Skeets went to the background while it was renewing your sign-in. • Quoted posts that your filters hide — adult content, mute words set to hide — showed in full again. • A post opened on its own page ignored your content filters and mute words. • Quoted posts could ignore your filters right after the app started. • Labels from moderation services you subscribe to had no effect. • Moderation settings listed some labelers more than once. • Posts with a warning that covers the whole post weren't collapsed. • If you sign in through your server's sign-in page, you couldn't see, change or verify your e-mail address. You may be asked to sign in once more. • Notifications from accounts you've blocked or muted stayed in the list. • Notifications now load in the background, show when they're updating, and keep your place when new ones arrive. • Display names with slashes looked wrong in Notifications. • Attached photos lost their bottom edge. • The photo picker now lists Recents and albums in the same order as Photos. • Videos you posted could show with the wrong aspect ratio. • Quote posts now get your post language instead of English. • The ALT editor opened empty right after a description was written for you. • The camera could crash when you tapped the shutter right after opening it. • YouTube links from a playlist showed and played the wrong video. • "more" never appeared on long posts that were cut off. • The Thread Reader button only appeared after scrolling. • Lists and starter packs showed Follow for people you already follow. • "Followed by … and N others you follow" counted N wrong. • Starting a direct message with some accounts failed. • The feed preferences button in a profile's feed opened a blank page. • iPad: links and hashtags in posts on the Profile tab didn't open, and the image viewer's bottom bar could hide part of the picture. • VoiceOver reads a post before who reposted it, says when a post is a reply and to whom, and announces videos and their ALT text. CHANGED • The video Cover step is gone — the frame you picked never reached the post.

NEW • Auto-ALT-text written on your device. Add a photo and Skeets drafts the image description text for you; edit it, write it again, or change its language. Needs iOS 27 and a device with Apple Intelligence. Off switch under Settings → Composer. • Post as any of your accounts — pick the account right in the composer, without switching first. • Recent searches are remembered, and sync across your devices. • Notifications now come from our own service: quicker to arrive, better grouped, and you can decide per category whether it covers everyone or only people you follow. Subscription alerts now sit in the main list instead of their own tab. • Links to mu.social open in Skeets instead of the browser. • Posts shared from other apps finish sending even if iOS closes the share sheet early. FIXED • Auto-Thread: the Post button stayed greyed out on long posts. • Search did nothing at all on Top, Latest and Users. • Push notification settings quietly reverted instead of saving. • Muted accounts were still shown in full when someone quote-posted them. • Skeets Pro would not restore until the app was relaunched — and the Pro screen had no Restore button at all. • Posts with a link preview often failed to send when the preview image was large. • Some people were stuck in a "session expired" loop after updating and could not sign back in. • Switching accounts could briefly show the previous account's notifications. • Faster cold start. CHANGED • Haptic feedback is now off unless you ask for it — Settings → Composer. • Shortened handles and swipe-to-like now start switched off.

Posting, rebuilt. Every post now runs through a new upload engine that keeps going when the app can't. Switch apps, lock your phone, or let iOS shut Skeets down mid-upload — your post picks up where it stopped and finishes in the background. • Interrupted uploads resume instead of starting over — or disappearing. • A new Upload Queue in your profile shows everything still on its way, with live progress. • Cancel, resume and delete individual uploads. Cancel now actually cancels. • A Live Activity on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island tracks all your uploads at once. • Posts you send to Skeets from the share sheet survive it being closed or swiped away — Skeets finishes them the next time you open it. Faster and steadier: • Fixed a crash that could keep Skeets from launching on iOS 18. • Tapping a post opens the thread instantly instead of a full-screen spinner, and pull-to-refresh no longer blanks it out. • Smoother thread animations. • Fixed a race that could like a post twice. • Fixed two causes of unexpected sign-outs: a flaky connection no longer ends your session, and push notifications no longer interfere with it. Stories, notifications and accounts: • The Stories row now shows everyone you follow instead of stopping at the first 20 accounts. • Switching accounts no longer leaves the previous account's stories on screen — or leaves the new account with an empty Stories row for the rest of the session. • A new Stories switch in Notification settings, so you can keep Stories and turn their notifications off. • Skeets no longer offers to enable push notifications right after an account switch when they are already on. • Choosing a custom App View under Advanced Options now sticks, applies to signing in and to browsing while logged out, and offers Eurosky as a preset. Thanks for all the bug reports — please keep them coming.

• Fixed a crash that could close the app immediately after launch on iOS 18. • Stories no longer disappear when you switch accounts. • The Stories row now shows everyone you follow who has posted, instead of stopping after the first 20. • New: get notified when someone you follow posts a story. You can turn this off in Notification settings, or hide Stories entirely in Timeline settings.

New features: • Stories — post photo stories that disappear after 24 hours. A story row at the top of your feed, rings on avatars with something new, and your own stories in a Stories tab on your profile. Shared with Flashes — stories posted in either app appear in both. On by default, switchable off in Settings → Timeline → Feed display preferences. • Sign in with Eurosky/Bluesky OAuth — proper atproto OAuth sign-in, with clean logout/revocation and smoother account switching. Refreshed onboarding with real provider logos. App passwords continue to work. • Multi-account push notifications — notifications now arrive for every signed-in account. • Select text in posts — you can now select and copy text in the post detail view. Fixes: • Fixed a crash when adding alt text to multi-photo posts • Pro features now unlock reliably after purchase • Fixed spurious "session expired" logouts • Fixed switching accounts after login • A logged-out session no longer comes back to life • Share and notification extensions no longer fail on an expired session
