4789 for iPhone
1.0.0 beta 2 · public beta
- An 18th place to look. The Black Hole Bay joins the sources 4789 can search, with steadier parsing and an arrival log sorted by how much each source actually found.
- Casting looks like the film. The now-playing screen pulls several colours out of the artwork, and the progress bar takes its colour from them.
- Media servers, live. Your Plex and Jellyfin servers show their real state in Settings, add-ons show their own logos, and the Letterboxd card was redesigned.
- Deep links into Settings. Help articles now open the exact screen they describe instead of the top of Settings.
- The iPod opens faster, and the U2 edition got its back face and click wheel redrawn from the real thing.
- Sending 4789 TV to your television over Wi-Fi was re-tested on real hardware, with a fix for an install that could stall.

1.0.0 beta 1 · public beta
- Settings, rebuilt. One cell style everywhere, grey group labels, no borders on dark canvases. Settings follow the Look you pick: Themed, Slate, Pitch Black, or White.
- Accounts & keys in one place. TorBox, Real-Debrid, Trakt, Letterboxd, MDBList, TMDB, Gemini and YouTube each have one screen: paste a key, test it, see where to get one, disconnect.
- Nothing is required. Every account is optional. Unconnected rows say “Connect” or “Get a key”, never “missing”.
- Search in plain words. With a free Gemini key, type what you feel like watching as a sentence.
- Help & FAQ now mirrors these guides, one short card per screen, each linking to the long version here.
- How casting works is a short illustrated screen under TV & devices.
- Back up & downloads. Export and import your setup, pick where downloads go, mirror upcoming episodes into Apple Calendar.

0.2.11 release notes, checksums and source
0.2.10 · November 2, 2026 · earlier release
Improved
Live preview waits for 250 ms of stable focus, avoiding repeated stream opens during fast scrolling. OK plays immediately. Visited Settings panes retain focus. All TV flavors include optimization profiles, and Sources reuses covered Detail drawing.
Fixed
Settings popup Back returns to its control. Live TV Left opens the menu. Guide Right and Left return between the schedule and the same channel. The first player-guide Down works.

Update

Settings and standalone Guide still show missed frames; Onn/Fire TV, real providers, small preview appearance and sustained playback need owner checks.

Improved

Verification and limits

0.2.0 · previous release
- A full TV app. Search, Home, Discover, Collections, Calendar and Settings from the remote. Detail, sources and the player open from a title. Casting from iPhone still works.
- Clearer rail. The left bar uses filled icons and tighter spacing.
- Titles sit under the highlight. Selecting a poster no longer draws the focus ring over the name.
- Same installer. This release retained the signing key from 0.1.42. Downloader code 5873252 now serves the current release.

0.1.42 · compatibility build
- The remote no longer stops working. Pressing down while a shelf was still loading could leave the app with nothing selected. No direction, no select, not even back. Fixed.
- Your shelves appear about five seconds sooner. The TV used to read its whole saved library before it could draw anything. It now reads a small copy of just the shelf you are looking at first.
- The artwork keeps up with you. Moving along a row used to leave the big title, description and picture stuck on the first poster.
- Films look like films. Titles whose catalogue row carried only a portrait poster now get their real wide artwork, so the top of the screen stops showing a stretched poster.
- Scores on the title page. IMDb, TMDB, Trakt and more, where they exist. Nothing is shown when a title has none.
- Shelves appear as they arrive instead of waiting for the slowest one. On a large library that is several seconds sooner.
- The row glides to the poster you moved to, rather than jumping a card at a time, and a held remote button is paced so it stops flooding the screen.
- Posters are remembered between sessions, so returning to the app redraws instantly instead of downloading everything again. A poster that fails once is retried rather than staying blank.
- Something now shows while artwork loads, and a poster fades in instead of popping.
- Artwork is drawn at full colour depth, which removes banding on dark posters.
- Settings sent from your phone take effect immediately. Before, new add-ons or keys sat unused until the app was restarted.
- One slow add-on can no longer hold up the rest. Sources appear once the ones that answered are in.
- Small print on top of artwork is readable again.
- Removes owner-specific defaults from the public archive. Every address is entered on your own network.
