Olas v0.1.4: Instagram-like Nostr Client
Olas is an Instagram-like Nostr client for iOS and Android.
"Olas v0.1 provides a feed of videos (like those on flare/highlighter/zap.stream), picture events (kind:20, a new kind that no client had implemented yet) and the classical short notes with images attached we are all used to," announced PABLOF7z.
- When publishing images, Olas uses the new kind:20. In a future release, users will be able to control whether to publish them as a short note so that they appear in microblogging clients too.
- The v0.1.4 release fixes crash issues experienced by some early users and includes a few other improvements.
Key features
- Blossom uploads and server selection.
- NIP-22 replies.
- Reels (may still be buggy).
- Nustack mint list edits.
- Image download optimization to be gentle with mobile data plans.
- Multi-image uploads.
- Dark mode.
What's next
- Upcoming updates for Olas are said to include NIP-55 (Amber login support), a fix for NIP-46 (remote signing) login, NIP-60 (Nutsack wallet integration), NIP-57 (zaps) and NIP-61 (Nutzaps), and NIP-29 support for private and public communities dedicated to sharing photos and videos.
"Imagine creating a private group just for your family or friends where you can publish pictures you don’t want to share with the world; or a community for artists," said the developer.
Available on Android (or zapstore) and iOS (TestFlight link).
