Ivory for Mastodon by Tapbots gets update that enables profile edits

Avatar for David Becker

We’re following the development of news regarding the release of Ivory for Mastodon by Tapbots which was released last month.

It’s a big deal due to the unexpected shut-down of its most popular app Tweetbot and the end of third-party Twitter apps, overall.

Tapbots released an update a couple of days ago called Version 1.0.2 that added the ability for users of the app to be able to edit their profile right from Ivory. Before this update, users would have to go into the official Mastodon app in order to make profile changes such as changing your profile picture, background photo, or account description.

Here are the other improvements that came in the update:

  • Edit Profile. You can now edit your profile within the app by going to your account settings or from the profile tab.
  • Follow Request Actions. Private accounts can now approve or deny follow requests from the notifications tab.
  • “Read More” posts within a post thread are now automatically expanded.
  • “View Faves” and “View Boosts” added to the “long press” menu of their action icon.
  • Better indication that a timeline filter is active when you switch to a tab with an active filter.(Filter name will be displayed momentarily at the top of the timeline.)
  • Fixed issue where the “Filter User from Home” option was grayed out in iOS15 when adding someone to a list.
  • Fixed the quality of custom emoji displayed as a badge next the avatar. (Adding a custom emoji after your display name makes it an avatar badge in Ivory)
  • When replying to a content warning post, the preview of the post you are replying to will now be displayed in the compose view instead of hidden.
  • Fixed issues with the notification setting “All, People You Follow…”
  • Various other small bug fixes.

Ivory is a free app in the App Store that has monthly and yearly subscription tiers. The monthly tier costs $1.99 a month, $14.99 a year for the Pro Yearly tier, and $24.99 a year for the Premier Yearly Sub. The app is currently available on the iPhone and iPad.
