Move .refreshable from the outer GeometryReader onto the ScrollView
itself so SwiftUI can properly coordinate the scroll offset bounce-back.
The ScrollView was inside an .overlay() which doesn't participate in
the parent's layout system, breaking the offset reset.
Closes#917
Route HTTPS YouTube URLs through yattee://open?url= scheme since simctl
can't trigger Universal Links. Improve wait strategies: use player
expansion check for video tests, tree length threshold for channel/
playlist content loading. Add retry logic to cleanup_after_video.
Test yattee:// custom scheme URLs navigate to correct screens:
playlists, bookmarks, history, downloads, channels, subscriptions,
continue-watching, and search. Handles iOS system confirmation dialog
via coordinate taps since it's invisible to AXe. Settings deep link
is excluded (known app bug - doesn't render when pushed to nav stack).
- Skip onboarding in tests by setting UserDefaults before launch
- Update all addSource.* identifiers to addRemoteServer.* for new flow
- Switch from identifier-based to text-based element lookups (iOS 26 AXe limitation)
- Add Yattee Server credential support in instance setup
- Update baseline screenshots for Home tab and settings
- Create standalone update-altstore.yml workflow (workflow_dispatch + workflow_call)
that gets version from latest GitHub release tag instead of project.pbxproj
- Replace inline update_altstore job in release.yml with workflow_call reference
- Add altstore-source.json with app metadata and initial version entry
- Update README with revised features, TestFlight install link, and new logo assets
For context, Invidious performs a type check of its configuration during
bootup, and allows the "domain" to be unspecified, in which case the API
and HTML it generates includes path-only URLs. This is valid: in these
cases we should assume that the Host for those URLs is the same as
the Host we used to access the endpoint called.
This commit adds support for servers configured in such a way, by
defaulting the host of thumbnail URLs, to that used for authentication.
Applied ZStack overlay fix to the channel menu in ChannelVideosView
where the channel name, avatar, subscriber count, and view count
would disappear when tapping the menu.
Uses the same pattern:
- Visible static label with channel info stays on screen
- Invisible Menu overlay with .opacity(0) handles interactions
- Prevents text/avatar disappearing and resizing animations
When switching from MPV to AVPlayer, prioritize HLS and stream formats over non-streamable MP4/AVC1 formats to avoid long loading times.
Changes:
- Added isFastLoadingFormat() helper to AVPlayerBackend
- Modified streamByQualityProfile to prefer fast-loading formats for AVPlayer
- Falls back to non-streamable formats only if no fast-loading option exists
- Ensures quick backend switching without waiting for metadata download
Extended the ZStack overlay fix to all iOS navigation header menus
where text labels would disappear when tapping the menu:
- HomeView: "Home" title menu
- PopularView: "Popular" title with icon menu
- TrendingView: Country/flag title menu
- PlaylistsView: Playlist title with thumbnail menu
- ChannelPlaylistView: Playlist title with thumbnail menu
- OpenVideosView: Playback mode picker menu
All menus now use the same pattern as PlaybackSettings:
- Visible static label layer in ZStack
- Invisible Menu overlay with .opacity(0)
- Prevents text disappearing and resizing animations
When tapping menus in playback settings (playback mode, quality profile,
stream, rate, captions, audio track), the selected value text would
disappear and cause unwanted resizing animations.
Implemented ZStack overlay technique for all iOS menu buttons:
- Visible static label remains on screen
- Invisible Menu overlay (.opacity(0)) handles tap interactions
- Prevents text from disappearing when menu opens
- Eliminates resizing animations on option selection
- Add device checks in Orientation enum to prevent locking on iPad
- Hide "Lock portrait mode" setting on iPad in BrowsingSettings
- Use Constants.isIPhone for consistent device detection
AVPlayer has a fundamental limitation with MP4/AVC1 progressive downloads where the moov atom position affects playback start time. When moov is at the end of the file, AVPlayer must download the entire file before starting playback. MPV doesn't have this limitation.
This commit adds an advanced setting to optionally enable these formats in AVPlayer with appropriate warnings:
- Added new setting: "Enable non-streamable formats (MP4/AVC1)"
- Default: disabled (formats hidden, MPV handles them)
- When enabled: MP4/AVC1 formats up to 1080p appear in AVPlayer quality selector
- Resolution limit: 1080p maximum (higher resolutions can't be played properly)
- Clear warning about slow loading and 1080p limitation
- Automatic stream refresh when setting is toggled
- Full import/export support for the setting
Fixes#870 where YouTube share links incorrectly included the port number
from the user's Invidious instance URL (e.g., http://www.youtube.com:3000
instead of http://www.youtube.com).
Added defensive logic to explicitly clear the port when creating share URLs
with frontend URL strings containing "youtube.com". This ensures YouTube
share links always use the standard format without port numbers, regardless
of the user's instance configuration.
The tap-blocking overlay is only needed on iOS to dismiss the context menu
on tap. Removed it from macOS and tvOS where it was either blocking normal
interactions or not functional due to platform limitations.
Removed fixed height constraint from empty state in FavoriteItemView.
Empty sections now collapse to natural height instead of reserving
full content height (290px iOS/600px tvOS), improving space efficiency.
Improved text contrast on overlay buttons by:
- Applying foreground color directly to button labels to ensure proper override
- Using semi-transparent gray background for unfocused buttons instead of Color.secondary
- Removing accent color overrides from caption text to respect button styling
This ensures readable text in both focused (black on white) and unfocused
(white on gray) states.
Changed context menus from press-and-hold to single-press for better UX:
- Quality profile selection
- Stream quality selection
- Captions selection
- Audio track selection
Updated ControlsOverlayButton to support tap actions via new onSelect parameter.
Replaced .contextMenu modifiers with .alert for instant menu access on tvOS.
Removed hint text and unnecessary 80px padding as single-press is self-evident.
The captions context menu on tvOS was always empty because it relied on
an .onAppear callback that was never triggered. The captionsPicker view
with .onAppear was only rendered on iOS/macOS, not tvOS.
Changes:
- Access captions directly from player.currentVideo?.captions instead of
using a state variable populated via .onAppear
- Fix label logic to show "Disabled" when captions are available but not
selected, and "Not available" only when video has no captions
- Remove unused state variables and helper functions
Prefix caption URLs with /companion when invidiousCompanion is enabled in instance settings. This ensures captions are routed through the companion service, matching the behavior of video streams.
In fullscreen playback, swipe-down and timeline seek gestures now respect a 60pt safe zone at the top of the screen, allowing the system notification center gesture to work without triggering app gestures.
Comments at the bottom of the comments view were not accessible on iOS
without entering fullscreen mode. The issue was caused by the VideoDetails
view being offset by the player height when not in fullscreen, but the
ScrollView padding didn't account for this offset.
Changes:
- Add SafeAreaModel observer for iOS platform
- Update bottom padding to dynamically account for player height offset
and safe area insets based on fullscreen state
- When not in fullscreen: padding = player height + safe area bottom + 20
- When in fullscreen: padding = max(60, safe area bottom + 20)
This ensures all comments and video details content are fully scrollable
and visible regardless of fullscreen state.
This adds a new instance setting for Invidious that filters out videos
without duration information from feeds, popular, trending, search results,
and channel pages. This can be used to hide YouTube Shorts.
The setting is labeled as "Experimental: Hide videos without duration" and
includes an explanation that it can be used to hide shorts.
Key changes:
- Added hideVideosWithoutDuration property to Instance model
- Updated InstancesBridge to serialize/deserialize the new setting
- Added UI toggle in InstanceSettings with explanatory footer text
- Implemented filtering in InvidiousAPI for:
* Popular videos
* Trending videos
* Search results
* Subscription feed
* Channel content
- Videos accessed directly by URL are not filtered
Removed auto-focus logic that was causing keyboard show/hide loop
on iPad with docked keyboard. The keyboard was repeatedly dismissing
immediately after appearing due to interaction between keyboard
notifications, focus state changes, and view updates.
Changes:
- Removed focused state and keyboard observer from SearchModel
- Removed iOS textField reference (kept macOS only)
- Removed auto-focus logic from FocusableSearchTextField on iOS
- Cleaned up unused focus-related code
The search field now works reliably when tapped manually on iPad.
Auto-focus still works on macOS where it doesn't cause issues.
Add startup cleanup to remove trending-related settings when the feature flag is disabled:
- Remove trending from visible sections
- Reset startup section to home if it was set to trending
- Remove all trending favorite items
This ensures users don't have invalid/broken settings referencing the disabled trending feature.
Change the Trending menu command to be completely hidden when the feature flag is disabled, rather than just being disabled and still visible in the UI.
Introduces a feature flag to disable the Trending section across the app. When disabled, all trending-related UI elements, navigation links, and settings are hidden.
Changes:
- Add trendingEnabled feature flag to FeatureFlags.swift (currently disabled)
- Hide Trending tab in AppTabNavigation, Sidebar, and TVNavigationView
- Remove Trending option from visible sections settings
- Remove Trending option from startup section picker
- Disable Trending menu command and keyboard shortcut
- Prevent Trending URL navigation in OpenURLHandler
- Hide Trending in FavoriteItemView navigation
Replace arrow.up.right.circle.fill icon with chart.bar.fill for the Popular section across all navigation contexts (tab bar, sidebar, and view header).
The hide shorts feature is no longer working due to API changes that prevent reliable detection of short videos. This commit introduces a feature flag system to disable the functionality while preserving the ability to easily restore it if the API issue is resolved.
Changes:
- Add FeatureFlags.swift with hideShortsEnabled flag (currently disabled)
- Hide all HideShortsButtons UI elements when flag is disabled
- Disable shorts filtering logic in ContentItemView, FavoriteItemView, and FeedModel
- Preserve hideShorts user preference for future restoration
Tab selection was being set immediately during app configuration, before
the user account had completed sign-in. This caused tabs that require
authentication (like Subscriptions and Playlists) to not be properly
selected on startup since they weren't visible yet.
Changes:
- Add notification system for account configuration completion
- Post notification after all account types finish configuration:
* Accounts with existing tokens
* Accounts requiring sign-in (after network request completes)
* Anonymous/public accounts
* Error cases (missing credentials, network failures)
- Set up observer before account configuration to ensure notification
is received
- Set tab selection only when account is fully configured
