What’s New
Version 2024.9
The 9th update of 2024 has some awesome features focused on improving GIFs and Videos.
New:
- GIFs/Videos in Big Preview Mode will only start playing when they are mostly on screen. No more scrolling and seeing GIFs that are already halfway done playing!
- Settings (including themes!) are now synced to your iCloud account so that if you get a new device or have to re-install, everything will still be customized to your liking.
- Adds setting to automatically unmute GIFs/videos in Big Preview mode as you scroll in Settings > Posts
- Adds favorites button as an option for the action bar
- Adds setting to control mute behavior on GIF posts
- App icons will now respond correctly to dark mode. I also added a new orangered and new blue icon.
- Adds setting to control the gesture for how comments are collapsed: single tap, double tap, two finger tap, or disabled altogether
Improved:
- When opening a GIF/Video from Big Preview Mode, the post will show the GIF/Video at the same place on the timeline. For those of you who may not like this behavior, there is now a setting to always start GIFs/Videos from the beginning in Settings > Posts
- GIFs and videos that are unmuted in Big Preview mode will stay un-muted when you open the post
Fixed:
- Fixes issue where iOS dictation would insert a weird character that is displayed on reddit.com
- Changed some icons for the action bar to ensure continuity in the visual style
- Fixes issue where placeholders would be shown with thumbnails turned off
We have so much more planned. Please feel free to come by /r/narwhalapp and share your feedback!
Ratings and Reviews
Simply the best, shame about Reddit
Narwhal has always been THE best Reddit client, and this new version is the best yet. Reddit’s shameful behaviour in how it treats developers, moderators, and users, and the damage it’s done to its reputation and content quality, would have had me flee, but for the fact that Narwhal kept working. That it’s now been substantially modernised and improved is gravy!
The current subscription price is reasonable, though I do fear it won’t be enough to satiate Reddit’s newfound greed. I hope the developer is able to make decent coin from here on, and I plan to stick around while Narwhal keeps going, but I do fear the price increasing substantially over time, slowly, ensh*ttyfyingly nudging me to just quit the platform once and for all. For now at least, there’s no better way to consume (what’s left of) Reddit.
So much better
I tried this app because my official reddit app went mental and used half my data in a few days whilst I actually used it a little less than normal.
What a blessing in disguise. This app might not be as pretty and takes a little getting used to, but once you do, it’s so customisable! That alone makes so much difference - being able to filter out all those toxic subs full of idiots is for me the biggest selling feature by far.
Oh, and yes: it significantly reduced my data usage.
Great but...
Congrats, your app is so good that reddit is once more eating my life.
I just have one minor grumble with your app. In the drop down menu with share,sort,report,etc you only have an option to refresh comments and no option to refresh the contents of the actual post. I have a questionable internet connection and often need to refresh several times before pages with start or finish loading.
In a browser this is no problem, i just click on the address bar and press enter. I cant do this in the app obviously so I am constantly having to bounce to the browser to view the actual content before going back to interact with comments.
