Hi all,
I'm still waiting on Apple to approve Alien Blue's updates (both on iPad and iPhone). There are quite a few critical bugs in the existing market version when running under iOS 8 (like some UI options/menus not working at all). Rest assured, the update was submitted to Apple soon after they opened up iOS 8 submissions and should hopefully be approved shortly.
My sincere apologies to those of you running into problems today - the update was intended to co-incide with the iOS 8 rollout. I will continue to watch my emails like a hawk and will replace this section with the official update announcement as soon as Apple greenlights it.
Very best wishes,
Jase

tl/dr: New update is available. May take 1-2 hours to roll out to your country's App Store.
Hi all,
This release brings several important fixes, UI improvements, moderator tools, and some alternate ways to navigate and interact with Alien Blue.
Here's what you can expect from this update. I've highlighted the juicy bits, as well as parts of the update that were discussed frequently in this subreddit:
Release Notes: Alien Blue (iPhone) 2.7
Improvements:
Drag from screen edges, toolbar or navigation bar to easily navigate back (and forward) without reaching
Clipboard detection for Reddit links
Optimal article view now uses a hybrid readability engine to render articles to match your Alien Blue color/font settings
Optimal switch now remembers your preference based on content type (gifs, videos, articles etc.)
Ability to choose Instapaper Mobilizer, Readability, or Alien Blue's native layout for reformatting articles
Ability to order search results by number of comments
Improved handling of image centric / comic websites in optimal

Minor UI improvements to Inbox screen (major revisions coming soon)
New Gestures:

Triple tap on navigation bar to switch between day/night theme
Fixes:
Critical: Canvas not handling revised Imgur links

Fixed: Switching themes causes artifacts near the navigation bar
Fixed: Texture distortion on additional options drawer for posts and comments
Fixed: Texture distortion behind posts table

Fixed: Some imgur albums appearing out of sequence
Fixed: Occasional crashes when manually clearing cache
Fixed: Image cache not routinely clearing
Fixed: Crash from incorrectly encoded gif images
Fixed: "More" button is hard to trigger while tilt-scrolling is enabled
Fixed: Entering and exiting fullscreen slightly snaps the content out of place
Hope you like it folks! As you get a chance to play around with the changes, I will also be porting the mod tools and UI improvements across to the iPad version.
Cheers and best wishes,
Jase (alienblue)
PS: Many apologies for the currently borked Evernote & Tumblr integration, I will be incorporating their new API changes in the update that shortly follows this one.
PPS: If you like this update, please leave a review on iTunes. These help me greatly, and (I'm quite certain) improve the rate at which I can get updates approved through Apple.

tl/dr: Available here, may take up to an hour to appear on your country's App Store.
Hi all,
As always, I'm very excited to share with you the very latest version of Alien Blue.
Although both the iPhone and iPad versions have been updated, I'm still in the process of rolling out some of the missing features onto the iPad version.
So without further ado, here's what you can expect from today's update:
Revised UI
Minimal layout with a focus on giving you the largest reading area possible, while still having interaction icons and inbox notifications visible. If you prefer to benefit from bug fixes only for now, I have also added the option to Use Classic UI under Settings->Appearance.
iPhone 6/6+
I've already optimised for your brand new iOS devices in this update, along with the 3x resolution artwork for lucky 6+ owners. That said, over the next couple of weeks, I will be experimenting with some revised landscape layouts for the larger screens - especially after I get a chance to use them myself.
Action Menu
This is a per-screen customisable, and fully gesture driven interaction menu. It allows you to personalize Alien Blue to your usage patterns. Power users and frequent contributors can also enable some goodies here that allow at-a-glance tracking/delta monitoring of submissions and watched posts.
Touch-to-Preview
Touch-to-Preview allows Hoverzoom like functionality inside Alien Blue. The application will hover the content just above the touch location so that your hand doesn't obstruct the view. It is fully compatible with images, gifs, photo albums and videos.
Threaded Inbox/Modmail
Alien Blue will now logically group/thread your messages, and automatically collapse messages that you've previously read. This allows a far more manageable inbox and moderator mail on small screens. Your submitted comments will also be grouped by thread, so that you can easily observe or locate your earlier submissions. That said, you will see some odd grouping behavior today due to talk like a pirate day.
Release Notes
There are way too many items to fit onto this announcement, but here are some additional highlights:
Gfycat integration for instantly visible GIFs
Additional HTTPS/SSL coverage for reddit requests
Added support for link flair (activate via Settings)
Improved support for tables
Added [removed:] prefix for striked-out text
Added comment [M] indicator for moderators
Added comment [A] indicator for administrators
Reduced occurrences of "Image is too large" conditions
If you'd like to read the complete list of new features, improvements and bug fixes, here is a link to the full release notes.
Hope you like it folks. I'm working on a chaser update that'll shortly follow this one to fix up additional iOS 8 teething issues, so please keep me posted if you run into any trouble.
Very best wishes,
Jase
PS: If you like this update, please leave a review on iTunes. These help greatly, and I can't stress enough how much I appreciate it.

tl/dr: Looks like this. Free & Universal. You can grab it here
Hi all,
I wanted to share another one of my projects that may come in handy for some of you.
Over the past few months, I made a custom YouTube client for my daughter (named after her). I figured it may come in handy for some of you too so I decided to drop it on the App Store.
It is completely native, very fast and will run on all iOS 6+ devices (iPad included). For those of you using Alien Blue, the interface should feel comfortable and familiar.
It's a far lighter project than Alien Blue and doesn't carry a lot of bells and whistles, but it may serve as a simple alternative.
So check it out, and I hope it makes life a little easier.
Cheers and very best wishes,
Jase
PS: I know that the contribution Pro upgrade is borked, that's okay. You can shout me a beer when you're in Melbourne and/or wait until Apple sort it out.
PPS: If you like it, please be sure to drop in a review on iTunes. It might help other users discover it also.

tl/dr: Available here, may take up to an hour to appear on your country's App Store.
Hi all,
iOS 7 is now live, and the new version of Alien Blue is ready to download alongside it. It's the perfect occasion to give Alien Blue a UI refresh to go along with the playful new platform.
That said, the aesthetics are only a fragment of what you can expect in this update… there's a lot to play with here:
Inbox Notifications (requires iOS 7)
Thanks to Apple's new backgrounding functionality, Alien Blue can now deliver notifications for comment replies, direct messages and Mod Mail directly to your lock screen. You have granular control over which notifications you'd like to receive, and can also obfuscate/hide previews from your lockscreen for privacy. There will be considerable notification lag initially, but as iOS learns your usage patterns, it will grant Alien Blue the ability to check your inbox more frequently in the background.
Canvas Improvements
Ported across from its iPad sibling, the Canvas now supports GIFs and Videos inline. It also has full support for Autoplay + TV/Out. Put simply, you can browse to a subreddit, hit play and sit back. Alien Blue will introduce titles and auto play GIFs, photos and (optionally) videos without further user-interaction. Just be sure to enable Mirroring if you're connecting to an Apple TV.
Retina Thumbnail & Link Previews
This was initially a pro feature, but it's always been something that I wanted every user to utilise. Retina thumbnails & link previews for blog posts & news articles still require a pro upgrade (due to server costs), however high resolution link previews for images, GIFs and videos are now available to every user.
Full Release Notes
I'll highlight the juicy bits, so that you can skim through:
Design refresh for iOS 7
Inbox notifications (requires iOS 7)
Retina thumbnails are now available to all users
Comment link previews are now available to all users
Canvas support for GIFs and Videos
Slideshow with Autoplay (also supports GIFs & Videos)
Canvas now supports TV-Out/Apple TV
Ability to view large GIFs in optimal mode
Added visual indicator for Stickied posts
YouTube videos now load with zero clutter and can play automatically (optional)
Improved stability for albums with multiple GIFs
Improved performance and memory handling for YouTube playback
Canvas now supports top/new/controversial sorting
Canvas now supports searching
Canvas images will require a tap to protect from spoilers
Added support for sharing via Tumblr
Ability to order search results by number of comments
Minor UI improvements to Inbox screen (major revisions coming shortly)
Faster launch times
/u/ links are now displayed natively inside Alien Blue
Added highlight and confirmation around comment deletion
Subreddit sidebar now presents links to threads and other subreddits natively
Added ability to copy a permalink for a comment to clipboard
Decimalised karma count under Reddits screen to be more granular
Fixed: No audio on YouTube videos when mute switch is active
Fixed: Numerous iOS 7 compatibility issues
Fixed: Dragging from left or right edge shows background only
Fixed: Some GIFs showing only first frame
Fixed: Moderation: Some removed posts are incorrectly flagged as spam
Fixed "Image not found" errors on some Imgur links
Fixed: Duplicate items appearing in Canvas
Fixed: Typing a subreddit manually attempts to autocorrect
Fixed: HTML characters rendering incorrectly in canvas titles
Fixed: Switching to Night/day mode occasionally causes some comments to be in the wrong color
Fixed: Facebook sharing
Fixed: Evernote sharing
DeviantArt
Soundcloud
Memedad
Livememe
Popular comic sites (XKCD, SMBC, C&H, Dilbert etc)
Flickr
Hope you like it folks, please be sure to keep me posted if you run into any trouble. There might be some teething issues with iOS 7, but I'll have another release chasing this one for any problems that creep up.
Cheers and very best wishes,
Jase

Hi all,
Many Alien Blue users have reported crash-on-launch/backgrounding issues. I wanted to let you know that I've managed to locate the cause and have already submitted a patch to Apple for approval.
Although there are many suggestions and fixes still left to implement, I had to push this out with urgency.
Along with the crash-on-launch fix, I've also disabled Readability by default for non-text-heavy pages - to save you the trouble of switching in/out of Optimal view.
Depending on the current wait time of Apple's approval process, the update should land in about a week or so. I'll also have a beefier update shortly following.
Cheers!
Jase
r/AlienBlue • u/alien-blue • Jan 23 '13
Hi all,
Canvas photos are currently broken in Alien Blue, due to a minor change in Imgur's image links. This is affecting all users, so I thought it best to put up an announcement.
I've already patched the issue on my end and the update is awaiting approval with Apple. It shouldn't take more than a few more days for the update to hit your devices. Let's hope it lands sooner rather than later.
Cheers and very best wishes,
Jase
r/AlienBlue • u/alien-blue • Jan 08 '15
Hi folks,
I know this upcoming update is long overdue, and I wanted to apologise because its taken ages to roll-out (even tiny) fixes.
I'm still getting settled, and despite knowing every line of Alien Blue, I am still very much new to reddit, and the departments and processes that bring the site together.
That said, we've now got an update pegged for this month which improves and patches a whole bunch of stuff, like:
Added support for touch-previewing GIFv links
Imgur gifs will default to GIFv for instant playback
Added support for voting in Inbox using 2-finger tap gesture
Added support for appending device family to bug reports
Added latest default subreddits for unauthenticated users
Improved "removed image" response handling from imgur
Reduced latency when loading animated gifs
Fixed: Several GIFv related issues
Fixed: Status bar occasionally overlapping navigation bar
Fixed: Fixed status bar overlapping when tapping an image twice in browser
Fixed: Fixed non-compact navbar in browser when device is landscape
Fixed: Title on comments screen changing width after comments have loaded
Fixed: Potential crash while loading comment threads
Fixed: Background notification issues on iOS 8
Fixed: Low-contrast mode not scaling when rotating device
Fixed: Portrait mode occasionally appears when device is in landscape
Fixed: Captcha clipping when creating posts and sending PMs
Fixed: Non-responsive "Add Comment" item on action sheet (iPad)
Fixed: Comment sorting not working (iPad)
Fixed: Share options not appearing (iPad)
I also wanted to express how much I sympathise with the lack of communication about which bugs have been fixed/reported. Very recently, we recruited some kick-ass support people (like /u/willowgrain) to help out and give regular updates as things get patched. I know the Alien Blue mods have been holding the fort, and I'm hoping that we can rectify this with tonnes of transparency (and an improved application).
For what its worth, I personally work on AB everyday and at every opportunity, and I think about it even between those times. I'm really looking forward to seeing this update hit devices, and hopefully alleviate many of the whoppers that didn't get squashed during the iOS 8 transition.
Again many apologies for the wait, and the very best of wishes,
Jase

I would open Alien Blue and at first it crashes when I go to a comments section. Now I tried force closing it and it crashes whenever I open it.
EDIT: Come back an hour, and now it's half of reddit.
EDIT 2: Alien Blue is back up. No need to be afraid
r/AlienBlue • u/alien-blue • Jun 07 '12
Hi all,
Imgur has recently changed their mobile website to include sticky banner ads at the bottom of the screen. These ads scroll with the content which can give the illusion that the advertising is embedded in Alien Blue itself.
So I want to re-iterate officially that the ads are NOT from Alien Blue. You can verify this by opening the imgur links in Mobile Safari. I don't use advertising of any sort.
I hope this helps to clarify things.
Cheers and best wishes,
Jase
Edit: For those of you struggling with the screen space (when browsing in landscape), it turns out that you can scroll down to the bottom of an imgur gallery and tap View Original. That'll keep you on the non-mobile version of imgur with ads on the right instead of bottom.
r/AlienBlue • u/alienblue • Aug 09 '14
Hi all,
Thank you for being so patient with me over the past several months. Here's what has been keeping so busy and what you can expect from the update as it enters alpha testing:
Warning, these images are large - and desktop viewing (or Mobile Safari) is recommended, otherwise some of the images may appear pixelated or blurry.
Revised UI
Minimal layout with scroll-collapsing UI elements for the largest reading area possible, while still having interaction icons and inbox notifications visible:
http://i.imgur.com/LGz1qOI.jpg
Action Menu
This is a per-screen customisable, and fully gesture driven interaction menu. This will allow you to tailor Alien Blue to your usage patterns. For example, if you're a frequent contributor, you can put the features you need most right at your finger tips - meanwhile lurkers can hide away features that they never use. No more accidental taps or visual clutter from things you'll never need. Here's what it looks like:
http://i.imgur.com/YKS3Qf3.jpg
Handedness
Much of the UI has been revised to bring comfort to left handed users (or pretty much anyone that likes to hold their phone with the other hand). For example, here's how you can configure the action menu to accommodate for your preference:
http://i.imgur.com/HQG5LLW.jpg
Touch-to-Preview
I'm a huge fan of Hoverzoom/Hoverfree, and always wanted to bring this functionality to iOS - but the human hand almost always gets in the way.
Touch-to-Preview on Alien Blue will hover the content just above the touch location so that your hand doesn't obstruct the view. Sliding downward with your thumb will automatically increase the size of the preview, and releasing it will allow you to continue browsing with zero interruption and loss of context (the background will continue to scroll along with your thumb). It is fully compatible with images, gifs, photo albums and videos:
http://i.imgur.com/RHhAYCF.jpg
Hope you like it folks, I know its been a huge wait, but I really wanted to spend time and give you guys a lot more control over your Reddit experience (eg. via the Action Menu), without having the application always aiming for the center of the bell-curve.
Cheers and very best wishes,
Jase

Hi all,
I really appreciate you being so patient with this particular update. I know it took quite a while to push this through, but compatibility with the upcoming iOS5 created a few challenges along the way.
In addition to iOS5 compatibility, I really wanted this update to bring some much needed revisions to the application (both in design and features).
I'll highlight the juicy bits (some with screenshots) so that you can skim through:

Fixed Long usernames being truncated in the User Profile screen
Fixed crash when swiping the same post after memory warning
Fixed Comments button glowing incorrectly in Posts list

Fixed truncated usernames in deep threads
There's still a lot of work to do, and I'll be putting quite a bit of time around overall UI polish - but I felt it best to release this update to reduce some of the more pressing bugs while I prepare the next one.
Hope you enjoy it!

tl/dr: Includes discovery, grouping, new canvas and more.
Hi all,
Much like the recent set of iPad updates, this new update for the iPhone brings together a lot of tools around subreddit discovery and grouping amongst a host of other improvements. You'll also find the new version of the Canvas feature and the optimal browsing view for better content handling.
I'll highlight all of the good stuff so you can just skim through:
Discover Subreddits
Inside Alien Blue, you'll now find a well curated and up-to-date list of active subreddits ranging across a wide variety of topics. This list is maintained and updated nightly. If you see something missing, you can make a recommendation in any of the categories and they'll be live soon after.
Subreddit Grouping
As it stands, Reddit has the concept of a Frontpage that brings all of your interests in one place. Subreddit Grouping allows you to create folders like:
My Favorites
Fun and Funny
Thought Provoking
Safe at Work
Unsafe for Work (etc.)
Then with a single tap, you will only see the posts for that group. Groups are very flexible. You can re-arrange them to put your most frequented subreddits at the top. They are also collapsable. Think of them as having different "front pages" for a variety of interests.
It's all backed up to iCloud and will sync across all of your other iPads, iPhones and iPod Touches.
New Features
Discover Subreddits by category and interest (PRO)
Subreddit Grouping & Organisation (PRO) (Synced via iCloud)
Retina Subreddit Icons
Visited Links are synced to iCloud between devices
Random Subreddits (in Explore Reddit group)
Flair (Settings -> Comment Settings to enable)
Revised UI for Send PM screen (presents captcha only when required)
Optimal Browsing - Renders web articles to fit nicely
Optimal: Image links are presented without clutter
Optimal: Youtube videos are presented without clutter
Optimal: Native Animated GIF player (with loading progress)
Optimal: Native Imgur album browser
Improvements
Specify order of Search results
View subreddit icons and sidebar info for non-subscribed reddits
Message Moderators
Ability to subscribe (or add to group) directly from within a subreddit
Exclusion filter can now be used to filter out domains
Added link to create an account for new Reddit users
Added Setting: Show Voting Icons (Posts)
Added Setting: Show Voting Icons (Comments)
Added "Readability" to sharing options
Improved scroll performance in comments
Support for double-tapping image to zoom-to-fit in browser
Minimalist display of QuickMeme links (Optimal)
Improved handling of spoiler tags
Drastic improvements to animated gif load times (Optimal View)
Disabled comment graying on touch (distracting when resting/scrolling)
Revised Login screen UI
Gestures
Canvas Gesture: Tap & Hold image for comments
Canvas Gesture: 2-finger tap to upvote items
Canvas Gesture: 3-finger tap to downvote items
Canvas Gesture: Drag Up / Down to rapidly switch between grid/full view
Posts: Drag Posts list up to load more
Navigation Bar: Swipe right to jump directly to any previous screen
Fixes
Fixed: Navigation bar glitch after watching YouTube videos
Fixed: Thumbnails occasionally not appearing in posts list
Fixed: Occasional crashing from unsubscribing from subreddits
Fixed: Occasional crash when Reddit returns an error when loading comment threads
Fixed: Post links to subreddits opening in web browser rather than natively
Fixed: Small memory leak when "Autoload inline images" is disabled
Fixed: Occasional crashes in web browser under low memory conditions
Fixed: Particular YouTube videos causing crash
Fixed: Brief flash of white when loading images in night mode
Fixed: Last line of Self Text clipping in Compact mode

Hope you like it folks!
Cheers and best wishes,

Hi all,
I have some very exciting news to share with you today. Alien Blue and I have officially joined reddit inc.
I've grown pretty close to the admins over the past few years, and they've always treated me as a member of the team. Taking the next step to join them officially has been amazing to say the least.
As a developer by trade, you can imagine how excited I am to have reddit's mobile UI/UX design talent and front-end engineers working alongside me. This is the crew that brought home numerous accolades for their work on the AMA application, and I'm stoked that I get to work with them on AB.
With their help, I'm hoping to bring Alien Blue to the degree of polish and feature-set that I genuinely struggled to achieve on my own. This application has so much potential, and I can't wait to see it blossom alongside the help, care and resources of these people.
Be sure to check out the official reddit announcement as it has some important info on migrating your settings and PRO upgrades across to the newly available downloads, and some of the funniest gifs I have ever witnessed on reddit.
You can find the latest updates for iPhone and iPad on reddit's App Store account right now, and they contain a bunch of improvements and fixes, like:
Improvements:
Enable/disable auto-hiding of time/battery status bar (Settings->Behavior)
Optimal switch and comment count now visible when scrolling in browser
Non-Pro access for creating and submitting posts
Non-Pro access for managing groups & subscriptions
Non-Pro access for subreddit "Discovery" features
Lightened background color and darkened text color for better contrast
Fixes:
Critical: Potential crash when submitting a post with a long title
Status bar hidden after switching to "Classic UI"
Unable to see the bottom section of an article in browser
Tap-to-reveal status bar gesture not working on Front Page (Posts) screen
Status bar overlap issues when rotating the device
Potential crashes while application is in background
If you see something missing, fear not, I'm still working through the rest of the reported bugs for the upcoming 2.9.2 version.
Exciting times!

Hi all,
A few hours ago, Reddit changed the URL used to access your Saved Posts. I'm scrambling to get an update ready but with the approval process (1-2 weeks), this will take a bit longer than I'd like.
Alien Blue checks the /saved/ url, and this is no longer operational via the API. Nothing is lost so please don't worry, all of your saved posts are still available on the site.
If you see other users with this problem, please be sure to direct them to this announcement. I'll need to pull back the iPad update from the approval queue to patch this issue, and will also try to push a point release for the iPhone as soon as I can.
Cheers and best wishes,
Jase
Edit: Patched version for the iPad has now been submitted to Apple (ETA 1-2 weeks). Just working on preparing the iPhone build now (may take a bit longer as I need to rollback and test).
Edit 2: Patched version for iPhone has also been submitted folks. (ETA 1-2 weeks for Apple approval)
