Balackburn/Apollo v1.15.11_3.4.0

v3.4.0 - Theme Manager, improved translations, live comments, and more 🎉

on GitHub

Mirrored from Apollo-Reborn v1.15.11_3.4.0.

These IPAs are the official Apollo-Reborn builds, re-hosted here so this long-standing AltStore source keeps working for existing users. Apollo-Reborn also runs its own website and sources at https://apolloreborn.app

Features

• Replace Theme Builder with a redesigned Theme Manager in Settings > Appearance > Theme Manager — a unified hub with a 50-preset Theme Gallery (Dracula, Catppuccin, Gruvbox, Nord, Tokyo Night, and more), plus AI-generated, imported, and your own saved themes; gallery presets apply by reference and can be forked into editable copies, and a crash kill-switch preserves your last theme with one-tap re-enable (#558, #576: @jordanearle, theme presets by @harshb16)
• Add Follow New Live Comments for the Live Update sort — new comments pin to the top while you're at the live edge, and a floating "N new comments" pill lets you jump back to the newest without losing your reading position; toggle in Settings > General (#535: @icpryde)
• Add a Magnify Info Row loupe to the post stats strip — press and hold to pop up a card, then slide to pick an action (upvote, open comments, timestamp, upvote %, translate) and release to fire it; toggle in Settings > General (#566: @icpryde)
• Add an Open in App screen in Settings > General that consolidates all per-app deep-link toggles (Bluesky, GitHub, Steam, YouTube) and a Default Browser picker in one place (#547: @icpryde)
• Add a Comment Link Host picker in Settings > Apollo Reborn > Media Upload Host to post comment images as plain Imgur or Img Chest links instead of native Reddit uploads, so you can add images in subreddits that disallow media comments (#573: @icpryde)
• Improve Apollo AI Summaries (#532: @icpryde)
  • Tapping an idle summary card now opens it automatically once the summary is ready
  • New Open Summaries Automatically toggle expands cards on completion (off by default)
  • Cards reopen in the state you last left them, tracked per thread
  • JavaScript-heavy pages are retried so they summarize instead of failing, and tapping a page with nothing to summarize now shows a "Nothing to summarize" card
  • Cached summaries now expire after 7 days
• Extend Share as Video to Streamable and Redgifs link posts, showing the correct full-width poster at the true aspect ratio and including audio in exported clips (#540: @icpryde)
• Make the Hold for Video Speed gesture configurable in Settings > Media — pick any speed from 0.25× to 2× to engage while holding, or turn the gesture off, with a haptic tick the instant it engages (#545, #531: @icpryde)
• Add a Picture-in-Picture entry button to the fullscreen video player so you can send a video to the in-app miniplayer directly when autoplay is off (#569: @JeffreyCA)
• Add three LGBTQ+ Liquid Glass app icons (Pride, Progress, Trans) to the icon picker (#529: @lilacvibes)
• Add Move Tab Bar to Bottom for iPad in Settings > General to dock the iPadOS 26 floating tab bar at the bottom instead of overlapping the search bar (#557: @icpryde)
• Add a Show Detailed Profiles toggle in Settings > Apollo Reborn > Media (on by default) to revert profile pages to Apollo's compact stock layout, folding in the former "Social Links in Profile" switch (#536: @icpryde)
• Add a Public Sticky from Subreddit option to the moderator removal Notify user via… menu that posts the removal comment under the subreddit's mod-team identity instead of your own account (#537: @icpryde)
• Improve subreddit feed search with Keep Search Bar in Place on — results appear directly below the search field, the nav bar stays visible after opening a result and returning, and the subreddit header hides while searching to prevent Liquid Glass bleed-through (#534: @icpryde)
• Add theme image sharing to the Theme Manager — export any custom theme as a shareable QR card (a mock post preview of its colours and font) and import it back via Camera, Photo Library, or Files (#581: @icpryde)
• Add a Colourize Vote Arrows option to the Theme Manager so idle up/down arrows take the accent colour while a cast vote keeps Apollo's native green/blue-violet indicator (#580: @jordanearle)
• Extend the theme accent colour to all tweak-drawn UI — settings screens, the GIF picker, sign-in buttons, AI summaries, the follow pill, and more now follow the active theme's accent (or the stock theme's) instead of defaulting to blue, with legibility guards for near-white accents (#586: @JeffreyCA)
• Add a Deleted Comments settings sub-screen, a Show/Hide shortcut at the bottom of the comments ⋯ menu, and a new Passive mode that recovers deleted comments for a single thread on demand — switching back off when you leave — without touching the global toggle (#572: @icpryde)
• Add per-item translation language markers — tap a marker to toggle just that comment, post body, or feed title between translated and original, and enable a new Tap to Translate mode to translate only the items you tap (#564: @icpryde)
• Add Bark Notifications for free Apple ID sideloads — relay push notifications through the free Bark app, configured in Settings > Apollo Reborn > Custom API, on builds without a push entitlement (#578: @nickclyde)
• Show the Picture-in-Picture button in the fullscreen player for spoiler- and NSFW-tagged videos, which never autoplay inline and so were previously missing the button even with autoplay off (#584: @JeffreyCA)
• Add Helios Liquid Glass icon variants — eight new app icons (Helios, plus Halo, Cryo, Parallax, and Ultra combinations) for the Liquid Glass icon picker (#590: @IllIIllIllIllII)
• Add an Anonymous Install Count heartbeat with a new Settings > Privacy section — an opt-out, once-a-day beacon that reports only a monthly-rotating random token, app version, build variant, and iOS version so the project can gauge real active-user numbers without tracking anyone (#589: @jordanearle)

Fixes

• Fix muted Picture-in-Picture videos pausing background music when Enable PiP When Leaving App is on — PiP now only claims the audio session for deliberately unmuted playback and hands it back when dismissed (#569: @JeffreyCA)
• Fix the modmail conversation layout under iOS 26 Liquid Glass so text no longer bleeds behind the status bar and the tab bar no longer overlaps the compose bar (#543: @icpryde)
• Fix Redgifs posts on the modern v3.redgifs.com host showing a dead link card instead of an inline video player (#568: @icpryde)
• Fix multi-image Img Chest album posts producing a dead imgur.com/a/… link instead of an Img Chest album, and render the album cover inline in the feed (#554: @icpryde)
• Fix Show Deleted Comments freezing the app on heavily-moderated threads, and deleted comment text rendering larger than regular comments (#541: @icpryde)
• Fix an intermittent crash in Show Deleted Comments caused by two comment bodies rendering on different threads at once (#563: @nickclyde)
• Fix spurious "REMOVED BY MOD" chips on subreddit sidebar stats and on post and comment bylines in subreddits with author flair when Show Deleted Comments was enabled (#516: @icpryde)
• Fix AI summary cards rendering as a tall empty gap when reopening a thread by tapping it a second time (#544: @icpryde)
• Fix comment avatars intermittently failing to load — transient failures now retry with backoff, and avatars are cached to disk so revisiting a thread needs no re-downloads (#530: @icpryde)
• Fix Share as Image pushing the Share button off-screen on small phones when Include Post Details was on, and gallery posts showing as a link card instead of the image collage in that mode (#553: @icpryde)
• Fix subreddit list rows not showing a tap highlight when Modern Subreddit Dividers or Subreddit List Enhancements was off (#556: @icpryde)
• Fix the user flair emoji counter always showing /10 instead of the subreddit's real per-template limit (#533: @icpryde)
• Improve the Show Deleted Comments enable warning to lead with a plain performance caution instead of implementation details (#565: @icpryde)
• Fix Theme Manager display glitches — ambient theming now applies in the Manager and Gallery, the search field no longer inherits the Separators override, SF Mono text is scaled to match other fonts, legacy theme names show proper spacing, and the cell label no longer reverts to "Theme" after navigating back (#580: @jordanearle)
• Fix the Magnify Info Row loupe popping when holding the username/subreddit line or starting a scroll near the stats row — activation now hugs the stats row and ignores swipe-like gestures (#586: @JeffreyCA)
• Fix search result rows staying stuck at full hero height when a link preview resolves to a compact card, leaving the small card atop a large blank gap until you scrolled away and back (#597: @icpryde)
• Fix Bluesky link-preview cards whose long title or body text overflowed past the card background in the feed (#577: @icpryde)
• Fix several API-Key-Free (Web JSON) mode reliability issues — auth cookies stay current across Reddit's rotations, stale sessions are re-harvested silently, native image uploads and the Submit Post drawer work again, and rate-limit responses are no longer mistaken for session expiry (#562: @nickclyde)
