Hey Damus enjoyers,

v1.8 has been tagged! Today we submitted v1.8 to the App Store, Here's a quick preview of what's in this release!

New Emoji Selector#

It's now easier than ever to select emoji reactions! Just long press the reaction button to pop-up the new emoji selector. Thanks Terry for implementing this!

Quote Reposts#

Quote reposts are now listed on posts, just like on the birdsite (x site ?)

New fullscreen video player#

Our video controls were pretty bad before, this has been improved in this version! You can now seek videos, view them fullscreen, and airplay them to your tv. Thanks Daniel for this feature!

Improved longform style#

Longform posts now show the image and related tags. Thanks Eric!

Account recovery, bug fixes#

Thread loading is greatly improved, we now support the latest nip10 specification for improved compatibility between clients. We also added an account recovery feature called First Aid. You can use this to create a new contact list if for whatever reason you don't have one anymore. If you are running into issues following people, you can use this to recover your account:

Testflight#

v1.9 dev is underway, with an up and coming highlighter feature where you can clip highlights from the web and other posts and share them to your feed. If you want to test out the latest up and coming features, make sure to grab a damus purple membership to get access!
