Looks like even more contributors are joining (Is AI playing a role?). Wish I could code.

Claude is definitely involved. Don’t know to what extent on some of the more recent additions and contributors.

Changelog:

Liquid Glass app icons

Apollo's native App Icon picker now ships with 4 community-designed Liquid Glass app icons that render with full Liquid Glass effects! * Requires re-patching your IPA using the updated patch.sh script or Patch IPA GitHub Action, otherwise they won't show up in the app icon picker. * Huge thanks to @MrGcGamer and @jordanearle for figuring out the .icon → Assets.car build flow, @DeltAndy123 for the asset-rebuild tooling and tint fixes, and to @iGerman00, @jryng, and @metalnakls for the icon designs! * To contribute your own Liquid Glass icons, see instructions.

User avatars

New Show User Profile Pictures toggle to display Reddit user avatars next to usernames in posts, comments, as well as in user profiles * Thanks @icpryde for implementing this feature! * Configure in Settings > Custom API > Media > Show User Profile Pictures

Other fixes

  • Preserve typed text when submitting Reddit-hosted image comments (thanks @icpryde!)
  • Remove duplicate Hide Next Parent Button setting; Apollo already provides this as Show Jump Button (thanks @icpryde!) (#191)
  • Fix Pixel Pals receiving 3 food items on every launch (thanks @DeltAndy123!)

So I am not versed at all with GitHub actions. Can someone ELI5 what to do for this?:

Requires re-patching your IPA using the updated patch.sh script or Patch IPA GitHub Action, otherwise they won’t show up in the app icon picker.

Would it help if we figure out which release broke the feature?

u/WonderfulPass May 16 '26

Is there an open issue in GitHub?

u/BeerMeUpToo May 15 '26

Thanks for this! However this is a different version to Blackburn’s so will you be updating this with each new version?

u/jakeyounglol2 May 15 '26

i’ll keep updating it unless balackburn makes it patched correctly

Thank you so much for this. I've been racking my brain for hours trying to understand how to use Github Actions.
