🚀 The first Delta 2.0 beta is here!
Coming later this year, 2.0 takes Delta to the next level by adding the following features:
📱 New Liquid Glass UI
🎮 Sega Genesis
👾 RetroAchievements for all systems
⚠️ Apple is blocking Delta’s iOS 26 bug fix update
Despite announcing they would no longer hold up bug fix updates for guideline violations, Apple called us directly saying they would not approve Delta’s iOS 26 bug fix update unless we added In-App Purchases worldwide.
So, we’ve worked with @retroachievements.org to create a special TestFlight build with WIP support for RA that’s available now for EVERYONE testflight.apple.com/join/aFVsc4vY
Big thanks to RA for helping us find a solution, and we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused
📣 An update on RetroAchievements
We planned to release Delta 2.0 with full RA support alongside iOS 26. Unfortunately, adopting Liquid Glass has taken more dev time than expected so we decided to delay 2.0
However, because RA is a free service, we don’t want to keep it Patron-exclusive that long
