6.2.1
Dec 11, 2025
This version fixes several bugs, including bugs having to do with state restoration, navigation, removing read articles, and selecting an OPML file to import. It also fixes a crashing bug.
6.2
Nov 05, 2025
- Added support for Markdown in RSS via the source:markdown element. When present, the Markdown is rendered as HTML
- Made several performance enhancements, most notably in scrolling the timeline
- Added a dotted underline to links in the Sepia theme, to make links more visible
- Added new setting: you can now enable/disable JavaScript (in the Settings screen)
- Improved http/https caching, reducing bandwidth and battery use
- Fixed bug where a feed could be read twice on being added
- Fixed bug where the initial download for a new feed didn’t store conditional GET info
- Added some special cases where we can and should avoid doing some specific work (such as downloading the home page to find a feed icon)
- Worked around a server bug where a server would always respond with a 304 when any conditional GET info is sent (the app drops conditional GET info every 8 days)
- Fixed a possible cause of feeds not updating by caching (non-429) 4xx responses for some hours rather than for the duration of the app run
- Fixed a couple Atom parser bugs (one with relative URLs, one with root level author elements)
- Fixed bug where contextual menu in timeline could be slow to appear
- Fixed a possible cause of app icon unread count badge to be out of date
- Fixed bug where timeline text could be truncated early when showing max number of lines in timeline and small text
- Fixed a bug where images that are links could get underlined in the default theme
- Fixed a bug finding a feed in a page that has no body tag
- Fixed bug with some favicons rendering weird, with dark vertical lines. Note: due to caching, the fix may take a few days to take effect
- Improved iCloud error dialog
- Fixed some cosmetic UI glitches
- Removed support for multiple windows
