HIGHLIGHTS
This update is all about messaging. You can view all your inboxes, and compose and reply to direct messages. An upcoming update will further improve this messaging experience, as well as add notifications so you know when somebody has DM'ed you, or have replied to your post or comment.
OTHER CHANGES
-
You can now add and remove subreddits from a multireddit. Open the subreddit and tap the More menu button, then 'Add to/remove from Multireddit'. (Note: You need to have at least one multireddit created first.)
-
When viewing all awardings for a post or comment, the awardings are now animated (where available).
-
Fixed an issue where app icon shortcuts sometimes weren't working.
-
Fixed loading of WebP images.
-
Improved detection of Imgur non-GIF image URLs that actually pointed to GIFs. These now load as MP4s instead.
-
Added a tip in Settings > Appearance: Overall Theme on how you can further change the text size beyond the default. Useful if you want very small or very large text.
-
Lots of other smaller changes that improves the overall browsing experience.
Beta 41.1 (2022-06-12)
This version adds fixes for a number of issues and crashes that didn't make it into Friday's update.
-
Fixed an issue after logging in where the subreddits were seemingly randomly ordered.
-
Fixed a crash after searching in a subreddit. Thanks to users who reported this via TestFlight.
-
Fixed a crash opening a message composer when using the anonymous account.

Beta 41.2 (2022-06-28)
This version adds two requested features that I felt should be released before the next major update.
-
Added mid-screen swipe back, by popular demand. Swipe back to the previous page from anywhere on the screen, in addition to the current leading (left) edge. If this is causing problems, or you don't like it, this can be disabled in Settings > Appearance: General > Mid-screen swipe back.
-
You can open a random subreddit by tapping the More button in the Subreddit list, then tapping Random Subreddit.
This update re-triggers the privacy notice, now with an explicit opt-in of the "detected links" feature, which allows the app to read the clipboard for supported links. As before, you can read about what this does in the "More information" section.
Beta 41.3 (2022-09-12)
This is a small bug fix update. I'm still working on a larger update.
-
Fixed loading certain NSFW gifs/videos. I'm keeping an eye on this, so if you see any issues, please report them.
-
Added "Open in Reader mode" option. To enable this, go to Settings > Content: General > Open in Reader mode.
Beta 42 (2022-12-11)
This is bug fix update that fixes some content loading issues, some rare crashes and other smaller issues.
