This week's Heron release allows giving feedback to for feed generator about the posts it serves, as well as initial support for post drafts. It also improves scrollingand general UI performance in the app!
The latest Heron release now has advanced search. You can now choose to limit your search result to those with media,or just videos. If you do, you can also change the layout of the search results ☺️
The latest Heron release allows for downloading inference models that run completely locally on your device and work without an Internet connection. These models can be used to translate posts for world cup szn, and even vibe check a profile. I'm experimenting with more use cases for the future!
The latest Heron release supports viewing and uploading up to 10 photos. Also bc media uploads can sometimes fail, there's now a dedicated tasks settings item so you can see and retry all actions you've queued up so you always know what the app is up to ☺️
Today's Heron release expands standard site support significantly. A lot of the ideas in Alex's post below already existed in Heron, and now you can subscribe to standard site publications directly from the timeline! Check out the video to see Heron's integration 😊
The latest Heron update allows for quick switches between accounts and other miscellaneous improvements.

Also in today's Heron release is the ability to allow any timeline be adapted to media, grid or masonry grid layouts! Posts with no media will render an icon instead to let you know there's no media.
Your profile should reflect how you want to be seen, and show what you want it to show. The latest version of Heron allows you to sort your profile tabs, and show other atproto records on your profile like your custom feeds, or standard site docs and publications. Try it on Android or iOS!
Pssst! The first public beta for Heron is now available for the iOS on Test Flight! There are a few things to polish up like notifications, but if you want standard site integration, different viewing modes for media, or cool Heron inspired themes, give it a go! testflight.apple.com/join/8GxSwx1w
