Playing with animating elements of the top bar out when content scrolls underneath for the Liquid Glass update to @boostblue.bsky.social. Commonly used elements like the back button stick around. #buildinpublic #flutter

Overshadowed by Custom Fonts, a "Hide self reposts" filter was introduced v3.7.0! Download: onelink.to/boost-blue

Boost Blue’s push notifications service is seeing major delays in sending notifications, I’m taking it offline while I troubleshoot. I’ll post an update when notifications are re-enabled.

Thank you everyone for participating in February's book club! It's time to start picking a book for March. Respond to this post with any book you want us to read! Voting will start March 2nd. 💙📚 #booksky 📚💙

(Late) Weekly Roadmap Update! Waiting for Review: - Account switch performance improvement In Progress: - Flutter Liquid Glass - Hide recent repeating posts Next up: - Build your own theme

A Flutter version of Liquid Glass is coming to Boost Blue soon! More details in thread:

Custom Fonts are live with v3.7.0! Boost Blue now supports 18 font options across several font families. Pictured: San Fransisco Rounded (iOS only) JetBrains Mono Noto Serif Roboto Slab Download: onelink.to/boost-blue

Feature Highlight: In your Feed Settings, you can hide posts from users you follow, so you won't see posts you've already read in your Following Feed!

v3.6.1 is live! - Switches to using Bluesky Drafts, and migrates existing drafts. - Germ DM button for iOS users - Fixes trending intermittently failing to load - Fixes auth issue when a user has switched their PDS

Weekly Roadmap Update! Waiting for Review: - Bluesky Drafts compatibility - Germ integration for iOS - Search page fixes Ready to Submit: - Custom Fonts - "Followed by" section on profile - Various minor fixes In Progress: - To Be Announced Next up: - Build your own theme

Just submitted a new version of Boost Blue that switches to using Bluesky's new Drafts and adds the Germ integration for iOS users! (hidden on Android after seeing complaints from Android users on the Bluesky app)

So something changed on the Bluesky Trends endpoint which causes Trends to fail to load in Boost Blue, which also prevents the Advanced Search UI from showing. I'm submitting a fix that fixes the issue with Trends, and also prevents any further issues from hiding Advanced Search.

Me with the official Bluesky app the last week.

Advanced Search is live in Boost Blue with v3.5.4! Download: onelink.to/boost-blue

It’s Theme Thursday! Today’s highlight is one of Boost Blue's light themes: Nord Light! Download: onelink.to/boost-blue

Feature Highlight: Soft Mute Soft Mute hides a user from your timeline, but still lets their replies, likes, and mentions come through in your notifications.

I’m obsessed with San Francisco Rounded in @boostblue.bsky.social

With Bluesky releasing Drafts, I'm working on an update that will migrate existing Boost Blue Drafts to Bluesky's new setup, and make Drafts a free feature. I have a lot in the pipeline right now, so this might not be done for a week or so, but any drafts created in the meantime will be migrated!

Weekly Roadmap Update! Waiting for review: - Advanced search In Progress: - Custom fonts (98.4% done!) - "Followed by" section on profile - Compatibility with Bluesky Drafts Next up: - To Be Announced - Sending feed interactions to feed owners - Build your own theme

Rep your team while you follow all the Super Bowl action on Bluesky the Sports App!

I cannot recommend @boostblue.bsky.social enough over the default Bluesky app. It has many features missing from the official one (saved timeline position!) and the developer is amazing and incredibly responsive and quick to fix any issues. It’s made my Bluesky experience so much better!

Preview of @boostblue.bsky.social’s next update: #buildinpublic

v3.4.8 is live! This update fixes several issues: - User post limit not updating - Overlay on images with alt text on post detail page - Pull down to refresh for bookmarks not working - Some urls in bio not being recognized - Quotes page showing stale post - Statuses not showing for self hosted PDS

Personal Update: I'm going to be on vacation starting tomorrow through February 3rd. I'll still be monitoring this account for critical issues, but I'll probably be slower to respond.

OAuth update! v3.4.3 is now available on both the App Store and Google Play. App Passwords are still supported, and existing users shouldn't be signed out.

Weekly Roadmap Update! Submitted to App Store/Released on Android: - OAuth! In Progress: - I'm on vacation from the 29th-3rd, so I'm only actively working on bugs. Next up: - "Followed by" section on profile - Send feed interactions to feed owners - Custom Fonts - Build your own theme

Super Bowl themes have arrived in Boost Blue! Custom themes for the Patriots and Seahawks are now available. Whichever team wins the Super Bowl will have their theme remain available in Boost all year.

OAuth update! v3.4.3, which includes OAuth, is live early on Google Play. Google Play submissions only take an hour or two, so I'm releasing it there to give the update a shake down. App Passwords are still supported, and existing users shouldn't be signed out.

I downloaded Boost Blue earlier this week and I highly recommend it. I came for holding my place on the TL, muting reposts for specific accts, and a drafts folder, then stayed for themes, in-app translation(!), and intuitive multi-acct management. 💙

New themes are coming to @boostblue.bsky.social for the winning fans of the Patriots and Broncos game!

v3.3.0 is live! - Dark mode icon on iOS (Android coming soon!) - A hide reposts for lists setting - Video speed playback options (0.5x, 1x, 2x, 4x) - Follow/Unfollow toggle on following/followers pages, and similar pages - Following filters bug fixes

Boost’s push notification server is having some issues, and will be down for the next 12ish hours. Sorry for the disruption!

It's time to vote for February's #BlueskyBookclub book! Like any of the posts below to vote for your choice! Feel free to vote for multiple options. Please repost, let's get as many people on board as we can! 📚💙 #boosky 💙📚

I'm going to run some tests advertising with @graze.social, and they required posts with certain hashtags (like #promotion). Feel free to ignore these, I'll try to keep them to a minimum so I'm not clogging up your timeline. But also, if you want to like them that probably lends some credibility.

Hi - we’re Boost Blue, an app for Bluesky with some extra features. 🕓 Boost remembers where you left off in your timeline and opens straight there the next time you open it. 🔇 Mute reposts for individual users. 🎨 Custom themes, with more on the way. Available for iOS and Android! #promotion

This might be a weird post to see from Boost's account, and I've gone back and forth on posting it, but decided I'm going to go with community building over personal incentives. @cameronbanga.com has developed an amazing Bluesky app in @getskyscraper.com, check it out and give him some love!

Weekly Roadmap Update! Testing: - OAuth In Progress: - Dark mode app icon - 3 new app icon options Next up: - Mute reposts in lists - Change video playback speed - Custom Fonts - Build your own theme #buildinpublic #mobiledev #indiehacker

One of ~5 reasons I gave up on Twitter/X was the loss of third-party apps. I’ve been waiting for a good one for Bluesky; I think @boostblue.bsky.social is it. Syncing of timeline position is great, of course. And then there are customizations such as this 👇

v3.2.0 is live! This version adds a trending hashtags section and hashtag suggestions when typing - powered by @getskyscraper.com! Additionally: - On auto refresh, engagement counts are updated for re-fetched posts (not all posts are refetched, considering further improvements) - Minor bug fixes
