NetNewsWire - NetNewsWire 7.0.4 for iOS — runs on iOS 17 and up

NetNewsWire 7.0.4 is out — get your updates your normal way or download from the App Store. There are two big changes in this release: it now runs on iOS 17 and up (it no longer requires iOS 26), and it includes the same new iCloud syncing enhancements that the Mac version has. See the new How to Optimize iCloud Syncing page for details on the iCloud changes, and read the release notes for details on all the changes.

@NetNewsWire what made y’all choose iOS 17 and not iOS 18?

@rosyna We forget the details, but the numbers suggested it would get us another several percent of iOS users with almost no additional work over the effort of supporting iOS 18. The line between iOS 18 and iOS 26 is way bigger than the line between iOS 17 and iOS 18.

@NetNewsWire AFAICT, the only people still on iOS 17 are those with specific models of iPads and people that jailbreak their iOS devices (they’ll intentionally stay on the version of iOS the device shipped with, hoping for exploits in the future)
