Note
Note from maintainer: This project has outgrown what I can sustain as a solo hobby maintainer. Going forward, I plan to keep things running but at a much slower pace, so expect less frequent releases and slower responses from now on.
I think the best path forward for the Apollo sideloading community is for someone (or a group) with the energy and motivation to fork Apollo-ImprovedCustomApi and carry it forward, which I'd fully encourage and support.
I appreciate everyone who's contributed, supported, and used the tweak since v1.0.0 🙏
Features
- Notification Backend support (requires paid Apple Developer account): point Apollo at your own forked self-hosted apollo-backend instance so push registrations, watchers, and inbox checks route there instead of being silently dropped. (Thanks @nickclyde!) (#229)
- Configure in Settings > Custom API > Notification Backend with the backend URL and optional registration token. Leave empty to keep current blocking behavior.
- APNs delivery still requires a paid Apple Developer account on the signing side.
- More details in #229 and https://github.com/nickclyde/apollo-backend
- New Reddit API Secret field in Settings > Custom API > API Keys so per-account Reddit credentials can be forwarded to a self-hosted notification backend that performs token refreshes server-side. Usually left empty for installed-app Reddit credentials. (Thanks @nickclyde!)
