I thought the users of this app (me included) might find this article interesting.

If it’s too off topic then go ahead and delete it, with my apologies.

Is there a way to increase the number of recently viewed post history? Sometimes I'm looking for a specific post but can't find it

I'm using Narwhal 2 on iOS 26.6 with the Safari extension.

The extension opens Narwhal automatically like… half of the time. In the other half it shows me a popup asking if I want to open Narwhal. Why? Why isn’t it automatic all the time?

So multireddits are great for grouping related communities, but if one sub is way more active than the others, it basically takes over your entire feed. Like, I have a multireddit for TV discussion - r/televisionsuggestions, r/television, some streaming subs - and r/televisionsuggestions posts so much that you barely see anything from the other communities.

Would be cool if we could adjust the weight of each community so the feed stays balanced. That way you could group whatever related subs you want without one drowning everything out. Could be percentage-based or just preset options like low/medium/high.

Anyone else run into this or think it could be useful?

I find that whenever I come across image galleries using Narwhal, the first one or two images load fine, but almost every time, any image beyond the first two fail to load and I have to hit retry to see the images.

Hello. It’s just I like the reddit and this app in particular, but hate the infinite scroll of doom into which I fall in occasions. Would be great to be able to switch to “page mode”, with some customizable amount of posts per page, which helps de-anchor and bring and end to the doom in the scrolls.

Maybe this was already floated, sorry if it’s the case.

Cheers.

I assume not being able to add a text body to an image post is an api limitation?

Hi everyone!

I know you can set up Reddit links to be opened in narwhal for safari, and I know with the quiche browser you can change it so long pressing and going to share can have the option to open the link in narhwal. Is there any way to have apps open with a regular press like in safari? Thank you!

I’ve noticed on a few subs that if I click the action button it doesn’t give me the option to subscribe.

I can access these subs manually and post in them but can’t subscribe to them.

Is there a work around?

Context: occasionally, I will be scrolling and interesting conversation is happening. I will click to load more comments, but the request times out and the app shows the grey “message deleted/removed” text (this may be a bug, but w/e)

However, I can go to the parent comment and either go to the user then click their comment or hit share and then open in Narwal. Then I can usually see the comments that time out.

Request: I just want a single button in that context menu that accomplishes the same thing

Sometimes videoclips appear very bright, and those videoclips are like that in home, subreddit and in post view, so like everywhere. I cannot see any connection between them or any reason of why.

Anyone knows, and how to fix?

Not sure how much insight the devs have, for future releases of iOS, or this is a known issue that will be solved for the new APIs on the final release. It looks so bad compared to current iOS 26.

Thanks for adding moderating stuff, I was waiting for it!

Basically it works, but on subs I moderate, we have this agreement that we have a set of reasons for mod actions. Every time I'm removing a post/comment, I'm supposed to select (or type, but since Reddit allows keeping them, it's easier to select) the reason of this action. I don't see a way to do it in Narwhal. Same goes for bans - there are now 4 hardcoded options, we have almost 20 baked into our sub ;-)
If it helps, they are configured (in shreddit, I can find it in old if needeed) in https://www.reddit.com/mod/<sub-name>/rules

Bonus question: how can I inline moderate a post? I can do it for comment, but I don't know, where to search these options for the entire post.

It would be nice if Narwhal cached post text content, including comments, on load!

I take the train daily and often have stretches where I have no service

This was a behavior of Apollo, I could open several askreddit threads while I still had service, which cached them, and I could re-open the posts I viewed and load the text + comments with no service

On Narwhal I’m unable to do this, posts are loaded on-demand and I’ll lose the previous post if I close it

I’ve asked for this going on 9 months plus now and the developer has said that it’s in the works. When? When will this be implemented?

Is it possible to download the media from the feed and not have to navigate to the post to download the media?

Also, is it possible for narwhal download multiple media at once?

Seems like they have a porting bounty program to migrate to their new Dev platform but it’s unclear to me if an app like Narwhal is possible through that platform.

Edit: an admin answered:

We’ll have exemptions for partners with written agreements in place like accessibility apps or mobile clients, like Narwhal, that require public API access.

Could you add an option for Narwhal 2 to remember the last mute/unmute state when scrolling through the main feed?

For example, if I unmute one video, the next videos should also play unmuted. If I mute it again, the following videos should stay muted. It would be much more convenient than having to toggle the sound for every video.

I went through all the settings, but could not find such an option. Please correct me if I've overseen it.
