  MastoBlaster Build 89 is now available on TestFlight. This update focuses primarily on fixing several layout issues reported in previous versions. The interface should now appear much more stable and consistent. I especially encourage beta testers using an iPhone mini to check the visual rendering on smaller screens. Please submit your feedback and report any bugs directly through the TestFlight app or by replying to this post. Thank you for your support! #MastoBlaster #MastoBlasterUpdate

  MastoBlaster build 95 is out, and I am getting close to declaring it stable.The biggest update in this build is making the Home tab behavior completely explicit. Under the hood, I changed the tab dispatch in MastoBlasterApp.swift, added the Home tab notifications in NotificationDelegate.swift, and moved the actual scroll/refresh behavior into TimelineView.swift so the timeline state stays coherent. Here is exactly how it works now: Tap Home from another tab: Switches back to the Home tab.Tap Ho...

  With the latest MastoBlaster builds, feedback reporting issues or problems has dropped dramatically. There will probably be a few more TestFlight builds, but I think the time is coming to promote the app to "stable" and release it officially on the App Store.

Stay tuned! #MastoBlaster #MastoBlaster...

  MastoBlaster Build 94 is now available on TestFlight. This is a major release that merges several different development branches I've been working on, bringing together a lot of moving parts into a single build. A long, sleepless night… Here is what changed: Full Drafts Support: A complete end-to-end draft flow. It includes auto-save, the ability to edit existing drafts, and a smart cancel confirmation that either discards a new draft or restores the original state if you were editing. It...

  Push Notifications and MastoBlasterOn iOS, push notifications must go through Apple’s servers. This is not something that can be bypassed, as it is part of the operating system’s architecture. MastoBlaster, like other Fediverse apps, uses a design that maximizes user privacy. When you log in to your instance, the app and the server exchange the necessary cryptographic keys. The app also communicates to the instance the address of the relay, which is the server responsible for forwarding notifi...
