The Liquid Glass Plan
We’re hearing from folks eager for the Liquid Glass update to NetNewsWire. The bad news is that it’s not coming this week or next (who knows when, really) — but the good news is that it is very much in progress.
Here’s the plan:
NetNewsWire 6.2 for Mac and iOS. This is a Snow-Leopard-style release — the idea is to fix a bunch of bugs knowing that a lot of people, particularly Mac users, may be slow to upgrade to the 26es, and we want them to have something solid to use while they put off upgrading — because the release after this one will require iOS and macOS 26.
NetNewsWire 7 for Mac and iOS. This will be the Liquid Glass release, and, as noted above, it will require iOS and macOS 26.
If you’d like more details, see our milestone for NetNewsWire 6.2, which is 67% complete at this writing. Also see our NetNewsWire 7 milestone and list of milestones.
Please note that anything may change at any time! Particularly when it comes to which issues are on which milestones — things get moved around all the time.

New TestFlight Build Uploaded, Waiting for Review
We know some folks are waiting on a new TestFlight build for iOS, and we have good news — we’ve just uploaded 6.1.10 (6198), and it’s waiting on Apple review. Once reviewed it will be available on TestFlight.
Update a few hours later… The build is now available via TestFlight.

TestFlight Build Expired (Again)
For people using NetNewsWire via TestFlight: the current TestFlight build has expired, and it will be a few days before a new build has been uploaded and reviewed by Apple.
However, you can install the current build from the App Store. It’s exact same build as the current TestFlight build that expired. It installs over your TestFlight build without affecting your data — it’s safe to do.

TestFlight Build Expired, New One Coming
Note for people using the TestFlight builds — the latest build expired today (sorry about that!), but a new one (6.1.9) is waiting for App Store review. As soon as it gets through the process, you’ll have a new TestFlight build.
If you don’t want to wait, you can of course switch to the App Store build instead without losing any data.
