Features
🧭 Browse
- All boards in one place, your favorites first, and a Feed of threads from all of them
- Threads in a grid or a list, sorted by bump order, newest, oldest, replies or images
- Search your favorite boards, or all of 4chan
- Hide threads by keyword or regex, and paste a 4chan link to open its thread
📖 Read
- Threads read like comments: replies nested under the post they answer, and folded away with a tap; or a flat list in the order they were posted, if you prefer
- Hold a post to hide it, or a poster's posts by their ID, name, tripcode or country, and filter replies by keyword or regex
- Tap a poster's ID to see all their posts in the thread
- Bookmarks that show when a thread is archived or deleted
- Threads can open where you left off, with what you haven't read counted and new replies marked until you've seen them, and a history keeps the ones you visited
- Swipe right anywhere on a page to go back
🎬 Watch and save
- Videos (WebM and MP4) start quickly, even on a slow connection, and play as you scroll
- A fullscreen gallery to swipe through a thread's images and videos, zoom, scrub and change the speed
- A grid of a thread's media that you can narrow to only images or only videos
- Save to the Saved tab or to Photos, or share, several at once, with a ring showing how far along each is
- Reverse image search with Google Lens, Bing, Yandex or SauceNAO
- Turn on iCloud sync to keep your saved media, bookmarks, history, favorite boards, filters and settings the same on your iPhone and iPad, and get them back after reinstalling; or back them up to a file
🎨 Make it yours
- Light, dark or following your phone, in 15 color themes that tint the whole app, or pure black for OLED screens
🔒 Private
- No account, no ads, no analytics: NekoSurf talks to 4chan, and to GitHub to check for updates
- Your favorites, bookmarks, history and saved files stay on your phone
- NSFW boards stay hidden until you turn them on, or until you tap the flame each time; their images can stay covered until you tap them
- Keep the Saved tab, your saved files and history out of sight: out of the tab bar, out of the Files app, and forgotten when you leave the app; and hide the app in the app switcher
