Hi! The bottom bar on iOS is feeling a little crowded. Is it possible to take it down to just five or four buttons again?

Answer: Hey there, @postcards-from-space-camp!

Thanks for this. It is a pertinent question, but we’re sorry to say there are no plans to change the navbar, and that is because of Tumblr TV.

We’re adding Tumblr TV in there to make watching videos on Tumblr smoother and more fun, and we hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

You will learn more about this in the coming weeks and months, but thank you for getting in touch. Keep the questions coming, folks.

man i hate apple i feel like 99.9% of the misunderstanding around community labels could be solved by just having the default setting for mature-labelled content be "blur" instead of "hide" but the fucking app store policy on mature UGC is literally:

If your app includes user-generated content from a web-based service, it may display incidental mature “NSFW” content, provided that the content is hidden by default and only displayed when the user turns it on via your website.

and i'm certain they know, they know that the majority of people don't change settings for things. but they're apple and it's their app store, and the number of people using iOS is too high to ignore, and the only browser (currently) available on iOS is quite frankly the worst one still in common usage, so your options are:

shoot yourself in the foot financially by not having an iOS app (after having already shot yourself in the other foot by starting a social network in the first place)

comply with apple's decree and make your entire platform behave the way they want it to

sucks man.

Why did everyone’s profile pics get turned into circles on the dashboard (at least on mobile)? I feel like the change happened with no warning so a lot of people’s profile pics got cropped funny and I don’t understand why y’all made the change in the first place.

Answer: Hi, @lemonsofjune!

It’s true: post headers on web and iOS recently got an update, including changing avatars to circles.

This is part of a larger effort to make Tumblr more accessible and understandable and make posts easier to scan. This change was partly about style (rounded edges tend to feel less harsh) but it’s part of a larger effort to improve how posts work and feel and reduce visual noise. As before, you can still choose between a circle or square avatar shape in your blog settings, and that choice will show up on your blog.

Tumblr posts have to convey a lot in a small space: who made the post, if it’s a reblog or original, when it was posted, whether it’s recommended or sponsored, and how to interact with it. It all needs to be clear at a glance, without overwhelming the post itself. With these changes, elements in the header and footer (the avatar, icons, the typography) are more consistently sized. 

You may also notice that avatars are slightly bigger. This makes it easier to recognize who posted at a glance, which is especially important for reblogs or recommended posts. We learned from previous changes that smaller avatars, or removing them on reblogs, meant people had a harder time identifying who posted, resulting in fewer reblogs, likes, and replies. Trust in the source of a post matters on Tumblr, where reblogs are core to how content spreads.

We’re keeping a close eye on how this feels and will continue refining it. As always, we appreciate hearing what’s working (or not) for you.
