    Just updated to the beta on iOS 26. First impressions it looks solid! Going to scroll around and comment and see how this new beta feels. Thanks for your continued work and development, it’s greatly appreciated as this is hands down the best iOS lemmy client.

    This is looking really really nice. One of the better 3rd party Liquid Glass apps I’ve used. Great work!

    Looks incredible. Very happy you’re on top of the UI change. I’ve heard it’s been a bit of a pain with the Swift UI bugs in 26.

    In Feeds sliding over the alphabetical list doesn’t scroll to the appropriate letter, it doesn’t do anything. Broken.

    Is there a chance we could get an option for collapsing the bottom bar to a single icon in the left corner on scroll, similar to e.g. what Music and Podcasts do? :)

      We’re definitely still refining how we use the new design language, and we’ve played around with some iterations on that concept. The core challenge right now is retaining compatibility with iOS 18, which limits which new features we can use. For small components like the jump button it’s pretty easy to support both an iOS 18 and an iOS 26 version, but the tab bar is foundational to the whole app’s architecture so we probably won’t get to utilize the full extent of the new tab bar options until we drop support for iOS 18.

        Ah I see, thanks for the detailed reply! I thought that would also just be an easily toggleable option on the stock tab bar design but if you’d have to do a lot of work around it I totally get that it’s not very feasible right now

    With this update, the setting from ‘Tab Bar -> Long press action’ is ignored. A long press on the account button no longer switches between the two most recent accounts, it only show account stats upon lifting the finger. Toggling the preference doesn’t help either. Swiping up on the account button still works in bringing up a selection menu.

    Otherwise, I thoroughly enjoy the new glass UI. Well done implementing.

      I’m glad you like it :)

      In iOS 26, there is a system-wide meaning to long pressing on the tab bar - it allows you to slide the selection bubble to a different tab. We decided to remove the long press gesture rather than override this system-wide behavior. We forgot to remove the setting associated with it, though; thanks for letting us know.

      It would be nice to retain some way to switch to the most recent account quickly, though I’m not sure what the best way to do that would be 🤔 Open to ideas.

        Some apps allow customizing the tab bar buttons themselves. I’d set mine to put settings and the profile-stats button in a submenu, and have a switch-to-next-account button in the middle.
