 Primal for iOS build 1.8.6 has been released. Here is what we have for you: 

- DMs: performance improvements
- Network settings: enhanced privacy 
- Network settings: set caching service  
- Overall stability improvements 

Our main goal with this release was to solidify the existing functionality and make the app more performant. Let us know what else we should improve in that area. Moving forward, stay tuned for a MAJOR update and a ton of new functionality targeted for the end of August. 👀

Enjoy! 🤙💜

 No, our iOS and Android apps are both native.  
 yes sorry, just found I've installed it from Google store. Great app. thanks! 
 Good Job 🤙  
 Primal doesn’t work with Orbot VPN when turned on ( iOS ) relays disconnected 
 Are you having these issues just with Orbot or any VPN? Also, are you able to connect via other iOS nostr apps (Damus or Nostur)? 
 1.8.6 works fine with @Mullvad VPN 
 Add tor relays 
 Which of yours are Tor? https://image.nostr.build/50c6ccd95cb7968d203499eb746b805c66ea4c5ab506faa4ede3ed39363ddb0c.jpg  
 Everything except damus 
 I cannot connect to these 2 with my Mullvad VPN on. But this reminds me of Tor browser for Windows advising not to use VPN simultaneously unless you’re an advanced user. Which, to me, implies complex manual configuration. 

Not sure if that complexity is involved with Orbot + Primal iOS + Tor relays. https://image.nostr.build/abce4d2305e6aa2fb1f2037baf18231edb6a6765253f42cd1daf441b6e27dc20.jpg  
 Tor relays doesn’t work with mulvad ! Only orbot 
 Ahh oops, that’s obvious in hindsight. I was just helping Miljan troubleshoot with his any VPN question. 
 Upload videos on ios isn’t functional 
 Works for me. How big is your video and what's the error message you are getting?  
 Itll compress s one min video and then upload then disappear

Been like this for months 
 Just tried again. 26 second video from my camera roll. No success 

Will compress. Upload. Disappear 
 It also could be because i refuse the new iOS update?

 Can you explain the "Network settings: enhanced privacy" thing? 
 Yes, I'll post something about it tomorrow 
 Friendly request for the attached. Willing to contribute to a bounty for this if others are interested. nostr:note1nprnkpm0hvvx4tpy20w8u2cevhxrm0ptvkcphmx2p49hnwkqda6sd5plmn 
 Hey bro, hope you’ve been well! Can you make me a https:// primal .net/MADEX link? 
 Any plans to adopt a more private NIP for DMs? 
 Request (Desktop/web): If I'm on my feed and I want to follow somebody, don't make me go to their profile. Let me follow while I'm still on my feed. 
 Clicking on hashtags and mentions isn’t working. I thought it was due to the enhanced privacy setting, but the issue’s still there after disabling.

 What other caching services are currently available besides primal's? 
 It would be good to have nostr links in DM’s show up like Damus, meaning they show the post rather than just a note text. Usually I have to had a link prefix to notes sent to me to see what notes people send me if they don’t tag me in it directly. 
 @zap.stream tab next? 🎥🙏 
 Good release but I can’t upload video yet 🥲
