I just wanted to share with you a new small feature we added, I saw lots of people complain about how hard it is to tap the icons in the info line so I came up with a magnifier feature to make it a lot easier! Also the comment bubble actually takes you straight to the comments and not just to the top of the post. As usually tapping anywhere else will just take you to the top of the post like normal.

Lots and lots and lots of bug fixes and qol improvements and we have a massive update coming for theme builder we will share with you shortly.

Just thought this was a fun little thing i saw people complain about since the days of apollo at the beginning so enjoy :)

We are looking for a moderator who has experience moderating other subreddits, we need help just setting up all the things you'd expect in a sub like filling out all the mod rules, setting up the mod tools so they are easier to use when needed and things like that.

IF you have experience moderating a subreddit and wanted to help us out then let me know if you are interested.

Features

• Add a Theme Builder in Settings > Appearance > Themes to create, save, and manage multiple custom themes that behave like Apollo's built-in themes, including importing and exporting themes to share them (#454: u/jordanearle, u/icpryde)
• Add AI Summaries in Settings > Apollo Reborn > Apollo AI (off by default, iOS 26+) — generates post, discussion, and linked-article summaries entirely on-device using Apple's FoundationModels (#489, #491: u/jordanearle, u/icpryde)
  • Post summaries appear in the comments header between the title and body, and discussion summaries appear above the first comment on larger threads; summaries stream in token-by-token and are cached to disk so reopening a thread is instant
  • Includes per-type controls and a Tap to Summarize option that avoids auto-fetching a linked article's page until you ask for it
• New experimental API-Key-Free Mode in Settings > Apollo Reborn > API Keys to use Apollo without API keys by signing in to reddit.com directly! Supports browsing, voting, commenting, and saving. (#442: u/nickclyde)
  • In this mode, images attached to comments and posts now upload straight to Reddit's own CDN instead of falling back to Imgur (#495: u/nickclyde)
• Add multi-account credentials so each signed-in account can use its own Reddit API key (or web session) instead of sharing one, with a redesigned account switcher to add, edit, reorder, and remove accounts, and support for Reddit "Web app" confidential clients (#505: u/DeltAndy123)
• Add Picture-in-Picture for videos and GIFs — a floating in-app miniplayer that keeps playing as you scroll through the comments (drag to reposition, swipe to hide, double-tap to resize), with optional handoff to the iOS system PiP so playback continues when you leave Apollo (#467: u/JeffreyCA)
• Add Img Chest as a media upload host in Settings > Apollo Reborn > Media Upload Host for single images and albums, with thumbnails and host labels in Manage Uploads, the ability to delete Img Chest uploads, and an improved album viewer with share, Save All, an accurate loading percentage, and swipe-to-dismiss (#434: u/icpryde)
• Revamp the Subreddit Sidebar to render new-Reddit's structured content above the existing markdown — community stats (subscribers and created date), a Search by Flair chip row that jumps straight to a flair's posts, related communities, resource links, and a table of contents (#462: u/icpryde)
• Add an opt-in Community Highlights carousel in Settings > Apollo Reborn > Subreddits, showing a subreddit's pinned posts as tappable cards at the top of the feed, with tap-to-collapse, spoiler blurring, and an optional Load All Highlights mode that surfaces the full set of pinned posts (#463, #499: u/icpryde)
• Expand Filters & Blocks with per-subreddit keyword and post-flair filters plus subreddit-name filtering that hides any subreddit whose name contains a word (e.g. circlejerk) across feeds and search (#507: u/icpryde)
• Improve Direct Chat with inline images, GIFs, and emoji/snoomoji in message bubbles, ImgChest-backed image sending, a recipient avatar in the composer, a Direct Chat inbox filter with avatars on every row, and an Inline Media in Chat toggle in Settings > Media (#488: u/icpryde)
• Add Apple's on-device Translation (iOS 18+) as a translation provider in Settings > Translation > Primary Provider, alongside Google and LibreTranslate (#460: u/icpryde)
• Show a user's Social Links on their profile page (#465, #496, #498: u/icpryde)
• Move Rich Link Previews into its own settings section with a combined Body, Comments, and Color sub-screen, and replace the preset card colors with a full color picker (grid, spectrum, sliders, eyedropper, hex) plus quick swatches, a live card preview, and exact full-fill card coloring with automatic text contrast (#504: u/icpryde)
• Add Include Link and Share as Video options to Share as Image — attach the post's Reddit link alongside the rendered image, or export the post as a video (#484: u/icpryde)
• Add Inbox Comment Scroll so tapping a reply in the Inbox lands on the linked comment instead of the top of the post (#457: u/icpryde)
• Improve the user flair selector to handle old (CSS-class) and emoji-based flair systems, add a custom-emoji picker, and show clearer empty states instead of errors or walls of blank rows (#474: u/icpryde)
• Show moderator avatars in the subreddit Mods list (#459: u/icpryde)
• Add 0.75× and 1.25× playback speeds to the fullscreen video player (#476: u/icpryde)
• Add a hold-for-2× gesture — press and hold the right side of a fullscreen video to play at 2× while held, then release to restore the previous speed (#479: u/icpryde)

Fixes

• Replace the misleading "Error Loading Notifications — contact developer" alert on free-Apple-ID sideloads with a clear Notifications Unavailable explanation, since Apple only grants the push entitlement to paid Developer accounts, so push, watchers, and inbox alerts can never reach those builds; paid-account sideloads and App Store/jailbreak builds are detected and left untouched (#492: u/federgilad)
• Make deleted comment recovery faster and more reliable, with cleaner labels on recovered comments and a heads-up when enabling it that comments may load slower (#418: u/nunoo)
• Fix the tweak's settings screens only following the system light/dark mode instead of Apollo's own color theme, along with related cell coloring glitches when switching appearance (#440: u/iCrazeiOS)
• Keep a profile's avatar, banner, bio, and social links visible even when Show User Profile Pictures is turned off (#487: u/icpryde)
• Rework the feed and subreddit search bar so the navigation bar fully hides on iOS 26 instead of floating half-visible, and add an opt-in Keep Search Bar In Place mode in Settings > Apollo Reborn > General (#451: u/icpryde)
• Fix link-preview card text showing raw HTML entities like & (#461: u/icpryde)
• Fix the SUBREDDIT SUGGESTIONS header overlapping the first row on the Search tab (#478: u/icpryde)
• Fix the modern subreddit list tinting the whole navigation bar when the Home row is selected (#453: u/icpryde)
• Fix the profile-picture tab icon greying out after opening a direct chat room from the Inbox (#458: u/icpryde)
• Fix the translation globe spacing in the Liquid Glass navigation bar (#455: u/icpryde)
• Fix Pixel Pals opening their menu over media, web views, and modals (#506: u/icpryde)
• Hide the redundant GIF caption beneath inline GIFs (#464: u/icpryde)
• Improve the manual sign-in fallback UI on older iOS versions (#480: u/Alstruit)
• Fix Hide Mod Subreddits stripping the moderator badge and mod tools when every moderated subreddit was hidden; the Subreddits list now filters display only, leaving the app-wide moderator roster intact (#500: u/icpryde)
• Restore the follow-thread Live Activity in the Reborn widgets so a self-hosted notification backend can render and update it again (#490: u/nickclyde)
• Show the website name on a link card when the scraped title is only numbers, instead of a bare number like a single-page app's match ID (#503: u/icpryde)

I'm working on tinkering with filters and blocks so any ideas of things you'd want added to this that you think is missing? let me know now while im working on it

Simply if you helped contribute to Apollo reborn with some code or some of the people who made icons just request your flair here and one of the mods can give you one👏🏽

We haver flairs so help yourself you can add text and or use icons which I loaded up a bunch of the apollo icons so enjoy ^_^

I know it's been a bit since we released an update but we have been hard at work fixing a ton of stuff and adding a lot of new features and just tweaking stuff that is just old so it works better on apollo. So update coming really soon but just a sneak peak to the community highlights feature I added and you can toggle it on or off if you don't want it.

v3.1.1 - Fix bugs/crashes and login issues on older iOS versions Latest

Note

We're aware of reports that Reddit has started revoking some users' API keys. Please see our new updated instructions for workarounds.

AltStore, SideStore, Feather sources can be found at https://apolloreborn.app/#download

• Fix a crash when sharing a post to Messages or Mail from the share sheet — the system compose controller was misidentified as an Apollo composer, leaving GIF-toolbar injection timers that dereferenced the dismissed share UI and crashed (#378: u/nickclyde)
• Fix Reddit login on iOS 15 by automatically falling back to Old Reddit, and add an Old Reddit button to the auth view for users who need to switch manually (#377: u/DeltAndy123)
• Fix video controls overlay rendering, including the AirPlay button getting clipped or misaligned (#383: u/JeffreyCA)
• Fix flair alignment so post and user flairs no longer sit too low or clip their text (#389: u/JeffreyCA)
• Fix Color Flairs reverting to grey or the wrong shade after returning to Apollo from the background (#391: u/icpryde)

Features

• Support any custom redirect URI for the Reddit API without patching the app's Info.plist, so custom URI schemes authenticate without the "address is invalid" error (also removes the need for LiveContainer users to patch manually) (#368: u/DeltAndy123)
• Add GLASS Icons and No Extensions + GLASS Icons distribution variants that bundle the Liquid Glass icon catalog without opting into the iOS 26 UI runtime (#317: u/nackerr)
• Add new Glitched (u/bajader) and Modern / Modern Alt (u/paulo1manso) Liquid Glass app icons (#353: u/bajader, u/paulo1manso)
• Restore logged-in accounts when restoring a settings backup, so reinstalling no longer requires re-authenticating each Reddit account (#331: u/nickclyde)
• Add a Subreddit List Enhancements toggle in Settings > Apollo Reborn Options > Subreddits to fall back to Apollo's native list, working around misaligned rows and a broken index scrubber on some devices (#355: u/JeffreyCA)
• Add a Color Flairs option in Settings > Apollo Reborn Options > General to color post and user flairs using Reddit's flair colors (#360: u/icpryde)
• Add Show Deleted Comments to restore deleted or removed comments inline from archived copies when available (#300: u/nunoo)
• Render comments with two or more link previews as compact cards instead of stacking full hero cards (#344: u/icpryde)
• Show feed thumbnails for text posts that embed images but produce no native thumbnail, in both Large and Compact modes (#351: u/icpryde)
• Fade and disable the comment image/GIF buttons when a subreddit doesn't allow that media type, instead of failing only at submit time (#356: u/icpryde)
• Add a separate Autoplay Inline GIFs setting in Settings > Apollo Reborn Options > Media to control inline GIF autoplay independently of Apollo's native Autoplay GIFs/Videos setting (#365: u/JeffreyCA)
• Ship an Apollo-Reborn userscript and an "Open in Apollo" Shortcut recipe as app-independent ways to open Reddit links in Apollo from any browser, handy for the no-extensions variant (#307: u/nickclyde)

Fixes

• Fix the bundled "Open in Apollo" Safari extension, which stopped opening links on sideloaded builds — its default "Automatic" mode redirected through openinapollo.com, whose auto-open only works for the App Store build. It now redirects straight to apollo:// and handles /s/ share links (#307: u/nickclyde)
• Fix the bundled "Open in Apollo" share-sheet action so it opens Reddit links in Apollo from any browser (Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Brave…), not just Safari, replacing a deprecated call that iOS 18+ refused to run. On iOS 26 the extension only launches if your installer sets the appex main-binary flag — AltStore/SideStore do, Sideloadly/Feather don't, where the Shortcut remains a signer-independent fallback (#307: u/nickclyde)
• Fix Recently Read showing no posts after a Reddit API change (#341: u/JeffreyCA)
• Fix inline Reddit GIFs in comments staying frozen instead of autoplaying until collapsed/expanded or refreshed (#349: u/icpryde)
• Fix inline GIFs not autoplaying on cellular when Autoplay GIFs/Videos is set to Always (#347: u/JeffreyCA)
• Fix the inline video play button missing on post-body Reddit videos and a clipped AirPlay icon (#350: u/icpryde)
• Fix laggy subreddit header scrolling and incorrect handling on non-subreddit feeds (#339: u/JeffreyCA)
• Fix Share as Image not opening under the iOS 26 native action menu (#335: u/icpryde)
• Fix the Rich Link Previews – Body setting having no effect and following the Comments setting instead (#329: u/nickclyde)
• Fix a crash in the banned-profile hook (#326: u/JeffreyCA)
• Fix a crash when navigating into comments from a dangling host pointer in inline image cleanup (#362: u/JeffreyCA)

hello i'm one of the people working on the development of apollo reborn and i thought it would be fun to ask a question and get to know everyone by starting with what is your favourite apollo icon you've been using all of these years?

Take a screenshot of your favourite icon and post it here and how long have you been using apollo for?
