And since we were forced to release this update, we decided to include some bonus bug fixes and QoL improvements as well 🙂

@lamnatos @puresick @d4v sorry about that, looks like there was a bug on our end! Should be fixed now, but you’ll need to “remove” Delta from AltStore PAL first by long-pressing it then tapping “Remove”

Once you’ve done that, you can “reinstall” it and it’ll manually update Delta (just don’t delete Delta during this process)

For those new here, our betas include unfinished features Patrons can test & give feedback on. Once a feature is finished, we’ll publicly release it for everyone 🙂

Patrons also receive access to ALL apps for a given tier — so if you join for the Delta beta, you’ll receive the Clip beta too 🙌

So what’s in the betas?

With Delta 1.6b, we’ve added brand-new gestures to make common actions more convenient!

To activate, hold down the Menu button then:
⏩ Swipe left/right (Fast Forward)
👇 Tap a button (Hold Button)

Let us know what actions you'd like to see next!

This beta also includes all the existing Delta beta features, including initial support for our first new system — Sega Genesis 🦔

Additionally, you can enable a bunch of "Experimental Features" added by contributors, such as customizable Fast Forward speeds and in-game screenshots 📸

And don’t forget Clip 1.2b, which has one major feature we’re very excited about - a custom keyboard ⌨️

No longer do you need to open Clip every time you want to paste; just switch to Clip's keyboard from any text field and paste away 📋

Going forward, our priority will be adding 3rd party apps to AltStore PAL ASAP — so stay tuned for future announcements!

@Kdude it’s a monthly subscription, but you can cancel immediately afterwards and keep using Clip indefinitely 🙂

We've also been swamped with support requests since PAL's launch, so we're doing our best to respond ASAP but it still may take us a bit.

We appreciate y'alls patience 🙂

We’re launching with two of our own apps:

🎮 Delta, an all-in-one Nintendo emulator
📎 Clip, a clipboard manager that can actually run in the background

Delta will be free, and Clip will require a pledge of €1 or more. Support for third-party apps is coming soon — so stay tuned!

Oh, and for our friends outside the EU, there’s one more thing...
