Download and Install

Please don't go looking for Tails in the App Store – its rules deny an app like Tails point-blank. Instead, the suggested installation method is to “sideload” the app via AltStore. No jailbreak required!

Requires iOS 14 or iOS 15. You may also download Version 2.2.1 as .ipa (3.29 MB, ) for a manual installation.

Please read the FAQ page first if you're unfamiliar with AltStore or need help installing it, and for information on alternative installation methods.

Release Notes

Version 2.2.1 was released on 2022-06-12. View older releases.

– Fixes a visual glitch where the pincode screen would show a pixel’s width of previous content

New features and changes in version 2.2:
– Four new quirky themes (two light and two dark)
    – Also a pretty large overhaul to the theming system making it easier to create new themes in the future – suggestions/inspiration welcome!
– Multiple new icons, including a couple of "incognito" icons to blend in with your regular apps
    – Icon ideas, concepts and suggestions are also much appreciated, and they’ll always be credited to you in the app’s settings.
– Image scaling modes in Behavior settings:
    – Always fill screen horizontally (current default option),
    – Scale to fit in landscape mode (possibly a future default option),
    – Always scale image to fit screen
– A slideshow option for images (available from the long press menu when viewing them in the horizontal detail view)
– Added a search for pools
– Redesigned pool list and pool indicator in the posts’ detail view
– Post relationships: parent/child posts are listed below the post’s tags like the pools that the post belongs to
– Post filters in the sorting menu: hide still images, hide animations, or hide child posts
– Date range shortcuts in the sorting menu: quick filters for searching posts within the last day, month, week, year or decade

Bug fixes:
– Fixes a crash when updating favorited/subscribed tags
– Fixed an issue where a manually searched tag, that was also favorited, would change its color to gray
– Fixes high CPU usage after scrolling quickly through a long list of posts
– A post’s detail view will no longer flicker visually when scrolling when the view was scrolled all the way to the top or bottom
