Pins 1.4 improves the “unread” experience for those who uses Pinboard as a read later app and adds the ability to browse public bookmarks from any user or with any given tag.
Unread Improvements
- “Read Later by default” option: Choose to save all new bookmarks to your Unread collection by default. No more manually flipping the toggle each time you use the share extension.
- Safari Reader mode access on iPadOS: Because of the way Apple implements the Safari “web view” that powers the Reader mode, it’s non-trivial to use it to replace the in-app browser. For now, I add a dedicated button to the bottom bar to trigger that mode.
- Widget support for the Unread collection: Quickly access those bookmarks right from the comfort of your home screen.
- Deep link support: Use the “pins://launch?screen=unread” custom URL to launch directly to the Unread collection. Read more about this and the new Subscribe to RSS action.
Network Bookmarks and Channels
- Visit the “Network” channel to browse bookmarks from your subscribed users.
- Explore even more public bookmarks from any user or with any tag using the new “Explore” screen and useful context menu actions.
