🆕 New features
Profile & Profile Analyzer
Follow Requests Tracker — logs follow requests you send (accepted / declined / cancelled) and receive (approved / ignored / withdrawn), catching who cancels a request to follow you before you answer; notifications that open the list, a searchable history split by direction with filters, sort and bulk actions, plus a home-shortcut entry — all on-device
Search followers and following lists by name or username, from the filter & sort sheet
Hide suggested users on profiles — removes the suggested-accounts strip shown under a profile
Profile Analyzer scans keep running after you leave the view — a progress pill lets you track or cancel from anywhere
Profile Analyzer can remove people who follow you but you don't follow back, straight from the list — per-row or in batch
Profile Analyzer — turn individual checks on or off from a new Checks screen; disabled ones are greyed out and no longer calculated or shown
Profile Analyzer — turning on snapshot recording now saves your current scan right away instead of waiting for the next one
Profile Analyzer — opening a list now flags entries new since you last looked: a NEW tag, they sort to the top, and a "New only" filter
Messages & DMs
Read receipts — get notified, and optionally keep a log, when someone reads a message you sent; grouped by chat with profile photos, an unread count per chat that clears when you open it, username/date search and sort, a per-person/chat ignore list, group-chat support, and a notifications-only mode (off by default); tapping the notification opens the log; backs up via Backup & Restore (opt-in, under Feature data)
Custom chat backgrounds can auto-color message bubbles (text, replies and voice notes) — the other person's, yours, or both, solid or gradient (vertical, horizontal, or diagonal), with custom or auto-contrast text; works with animated themes and shows through the composer; editable from the in-chat picker with live updates
Deleted-messages log now groups by chat — group-chat unsends appear under the group, each tagged with who unsent it
Deleted-messages log can optionally record removed reactions — the emoji, who removed it, and which message it was on
Deleted-messages log now captures disappearing (view-once) media — saved when you open it, when it's unsent, or when you reopen the chat, and states clearly when it couldn't be recovered
Filter the deleted-messages log to disappearing media only
Exclude chats from the deleted-messages log — long-press one to stop logging it, with an ignored list to manage and undo
Optional background keep-alive for the deleted-messages log — catches unsends while you're away, off by default (may use more battery)
Hide the DM and story seen buttons while keeping receipt blocking on, with an optional confirmation before any mark-as-seen action
Disappearing media can advance to the next stacked message when you mark it as viewed
Reroute Instagram's built-in Save button on DM photos & videos to Photos, the gallery, share, or expand in-app — with the HD quality picker for videos; configurable like the other action menus (reorder, enable/disable, default tap), off by default
Favorite GIFs — long-press a GIF in the picker (comments and DMs) to pin it to the top with a star badge or download it; GIF comments can be favorited from their long-press menu
Bypass "You can't send messages" — removes the blocked-composer banner and restores the text input in restricted threads (Messages → Advanced)
Stories & Notes
Filter, sort, search and pin your story viewers list — reorder by mutuals, who follows you, verified, who liked, or A–Z; search by name or username; settings stick; long-press to pin viewers on top (pin by username even before they view your story)
Custom sticker colors — the color-wheel long-press now works on every sticker editor (slider, fundraiser, prompt and more), not just music
Hide story highlights — removes the resurfaced highlights row from the feed stories tray
Reels & Instants
Instants can auto-advance to the next one after you like or react
Auto-save instants — pick Photos or the RyukGram gallery and every instant you view (including while swiping) saves automatically, each one only once
Downloads & media saving
Save photo posts with their music — new feed action menu entries combine the photo with the exact track snippet the post plays and save it as a video to Photos or the Gallery
Save straight to Photos from the profile action button and the expanded media viewer, alongside the existing Gallery and share options
Notifications
Mirror toasts to iOS notifications — toasts that fire while Instagram is in the background are delivered to the notification centre instead so they aren't missed; tapping one opens the same thing as tapping the toast, with per-action overrides and auto-clear when the app opens
Bursts of toasts no longer pile up — opening the app to many unsent messages, removed reactions or seen marks shows one summary pill (e.g. "15 messages unsent") instead of a stack, while a single action still toasts instantly
Interface, navigation & theming
Tab bar icon order is now fully customizable — drag to reorder any tab and toggle tabs off (including profile), replacing the old fixed presets; the hide-tab switches moved into the new Icon order screen
Reordering rows in settings (action menus, home shortcut) is more reliable — native drag handles, no more failed drops
Messages-only mode keeps the search tab, with a toggle to hide it, and trims its explore grid and trending searches
Force progressive blur (iOS 26) — keeps the scroll-edge blur visible instead of letting it fade out
Custom date formats — build your own with placeholders like {DD}/{MM}/{YYYY} {HH}:{mm}, live preview and tap-to-insert tokens; save as many as you like and switch between them, plus a new dd/MM/yyyy 24-hour preset
Force liquid glass off — disables liquid glass for accounts that have it enabled by default
Privacy & Advanced
Device ID — change the device identity Instagram reports: masks the device ID and family device ID it sends, with a button on the login screen and a Device ID menu in Settings → Advanced to roll a new fingerprint, set a custom ID, revert to your real one, or fully clear the device (logins, cookies, stored IDs) and relaunch fresh
Disable all tweak options (Advanced → Instagram) — turns every feature off so Instagram behaves stock; your settings are kept and restored when you turn it back off
File logging (Settings → Debug) — records RyukGram's own activity across the app and its extensions to one shareable log file for troubleshooting, off by default
Backup & data
Importing a backup can now merge into your existing data instead of replacing it — pick Replace or Merge on the import page; duplicates are combined, including merging galleries together
