Panecraft Inc. (Sapporo, Hokkaido; Representative Director: Yasuhiro Takeuchi) has released v5 of the iOS version of its multi-SNS client app "ZonePane", which has surpassed 30,000 cumulative downloads. This update adds the highly requested "auto-update" feature, marking the "completion" of the iOS version. Concurrently, the Android version was also released as v41 on the same day, and a new "Pro Plan" was introduced for both platforms.
Background of iOS Version Development ZonePane is a client app compatible with three decentralized SNS platforms: Bluesky, Mastodon, and Misskey. It was developed based on the former Twitter client app "TwitPane," which exceeded 1.3 million cumulative downloads. To achieve the same "meticulous attention to design and operability" cultivated in the Android version on iOS, development for the iOS version began in June 2025. August 2025: Initial iOS release (Bluesky support) October 2025: Mastodon support November 2025: Cross-post support December 2025: Misskey support April 2026: Auto-update feature support (iOS version v5) ← This release We have gradually expanded service compatibility and sequentially added features such as video posting and image/video downloads. With the addition of the "auto-update" feature, which was the biggest difference from the Android version, the iOS version has finally reached "completion".
Main Features of ZonePane • Multi-SNS Support Manage 3 services: Bluesky, Mastodon, and Misskey in one app.
• Save Read Position Remembers how far you've read in your timeline, allowing you to resume from where you left off upon relaunch. A unique feature not found in other client apps.
• Auto-Update Automatically updates the timeline at regular intervals. No need for manual reloading; always catch up with the latest posts (NEW). *Due to iOS restrictions, updates only occur periodically while the app is running. On Android, new posts are retrieved periodically even in the background, and new posts are notified.
• Multi-Account Supports switching and simultaneous management of multiple accounts. Account switching is also possible when posting, liking, or reposting. It supports convenient operations not found in official apps, such as "liking with a different account".
• Cross-Post Supports simultaneous posting to different SNS platforms and multiple accounts. It automatically checks for differences in character limits and allows sharing to X and Threads after posting.
• Custom Emoji Support Can display and input custom emojis for Mastodon and Misskey. Equipped with a proprietary emoji picker.
• Flexible Tab Configuration Arrange home timelines of multiple accounts in tabs for easy switching with a flick.
• Detailed Customization Aims for a design that becomes more familiar the more you use it, with features like theme colors, font sizes, user color labels, and expanded tap operations.
Introduction of the New "Pro Plan" To coincide with this release, a new subscription plan, the "Pro Plan," has been introduced for both iOS and Android platforms. It meets the needs of heavy users who operate numerous accounts across multiple SNS services. *Both the Basic Plan and Pro Plan offer ad-free viewing and relaxed cross-posting restrictions (up to 5 accounts can be shared simultaneously).
