@freechelmi no, we are cleaning those manually every day but sometimes we are not quick enough. There is nothing we can do to stop Google from inserting them..

@shanmukhateja seems like your WiFi ISP forgot to lift the ban that we negotiated last year.

@fox could be nice, but we need help!

@shanmukhateja what makes you believe that downloads would still be blocked in India? Can you do a screenshot and mention your internet provider?

@jvanvinkenroye yes, they modified the website to break this about 2 months ago and nobody found a fix so far.

This Monday, we released VLC 3.6.0 for iOS, iPad and Apple TV adding features that were asked for for a long time such as video rotation, custom equalizer profiles and improved playback continuity. Enjoy! Still supports iOS 9 and 32bit devices! itunes.apple.com/app/apple-sto

Very first prototype to have VLC 4 running natively on Apple Watch (of course audio-only). Not sure yet if this is going to be a product. code.videolan.org/videolan/VLC

@x_tof @fdroidorg indeed, we didn't ship an update yet. However, the libvpx _encoder_ is not exposed in VLC-Android (meaning that there is no way for you or a malicious party to use it). We will discuss that during our stand-up tomorrow. Thanks for the note!

@x_tof @fdroidorg what is wrong with VLC in this regard? can we help?

While the release of VLC 4 is still far, there is progress on VLCKit. It is unified for all Apple platforms now with an improved and simplified API. We add compatibility with visionOS and still support iOS 9. While it is too early to use in production, feedback would be welcome! You can get version 4.0.0a5 through cocoapods or compile on your own: code.videolan.org/videolan/VLC

On Friday, we released a major update to VLC for iOS/iPadOS/tvOS with quite a few additions, notably playback history, A to B playback, Siri integration, external subtitles / audio tracks, favorite folders on local network servers and improved CarPlay integration.

Available free on the App Store: itunes.apple.com/app/apple-sto

Oh and we removed the in-app purchases to donate to the VideoLAN non-profit. You can use Apple Pay, PayPal or your debit / credit card now. Thank you so much for your support!
