This is the biggest item in this release, since you're now able to follow general news topics about anything that interests you, and receive a 3-5 paragraph summary on it. Right now, it's limited to 50ish general topics, but we'll be adding the ability to create custom topics at some point.</li> <li><strong class="tag new">New</strong> We've improved our onboarding for new users, and surface the device you want to read on before anything else.</li> <li><strong class="tag new">New</strong> We now ask for your nickname during onboarding. We want the service to feel personal, and throughout the app and emails, we'll use this name when referring to you. You can change it in Settings.</li> <li><strong class="tag improvement">Improvement</strong> We've updated our Instapaper integration so that we're using their new API. Previously you had to enter your username and password to connect. No longer!</li> <li><strong class="tag improvement">Improvement</strong> Instapaper got additional love in this release. If for some reason we aren't able to deliver your publication to Instapaper, we let you know, and pause your publication.</li> <li><strong class="tag improvement">Improvement</strong> At work, many policies implement mail scanning technologies which kill magic links because those scanners access the email first. To fight against this, we now keep the sign-in links themselves active for 15 minutes.</li> <li><strong class="tag improvement">Improvement</strong> Reply to any publication of yours sent via email, and a human being will see it and help you out.</li> <li><strong class="tag improvement">Improvement</strong> We've updated the privacy policy and terms page to let you know that you'll hear from us before any pricing changes.</li> <li><strong class="tag improvement">Improvement</strong> Picking an email style to use for your publications is much simpler and shows a preview of the dark and light colour themes.</li> <li><strong class="tag improvement">Improvement</strong> All errors, whenever they happen in the app, now show in a banner above the publication. This is so that you know what broke and how to fix it, such as needing to reconnect an integration.</li> <li><strong class="tag fix">Fix</strong> There were problems with loading non-latin characters in URLs. Embarrassing, but fixed.</li> <li><strong class="tag fix">Fix</strong> Bluesky accounts that have very long names for some reason no longer break the UI.</li> </ul> https://tidings.email/changelog#2026-10-06 2026-10-06T00:00:00Z <ul> <li><strong class="tag new">New</strong> We now email you to tell you that something broke with your publications. To avoid being spammy we'll only do it once.</li> <li><strong class="tag new">New</strong> When you pause a publication, we now actually show that it's paused. Useful!</li> <li><strong class="tag new">New</strong> Fall is the season of colours... You can now customize your publications with five new colourful themes. Forest, Plum, Raspberry, Carrot and Blueberry. I may or may not have been hungry while naming these.</li> <li><strong class="tag new">New</strong> Dark mode is now also an option for each theme, along with an option to just respect your system preferences. Many email providers still ignore this setting though, so Gmail will continue to happily blind you at night.</li> <li><strong class="tag improvement">Improvement</strong> We've consolidated some of the branding across the main website and the app.</li> <li><strong class="tag improvement">Improvement</strong> Instead of a hard-to-read list, your publications are now neatly sorted into cards and provide information at a glance.</li> <li><strong class="tag improvement">Improvement</strong> We're experimenting with keeping each source you add to a publication on a single line in the UI itself. This should make it easier to reason about the order.</li> <li><strong class="tag improvement">Improvement</strong> When adding a feed to your publication, we now highlight the text that was typed within the feed name or URL itself. This should make it easier to see what you're doing.</li> <li><strong class="tag improvement">Improvement</strong> You're now able to schedule your publication to generate new editions at any time of day, rounded to the 15 minute mark. Flexibility!</li> <li><strong class="tag fix">Fix</strong> It's no longer possible to add the same feed twice.</li> </ul>
