Reply to Newsletters
You can now reply directly to newsletters! Whether confirming a subscription or simply responding to a newsletter, this feature is built for quick replies.
Please note: this feature does not support full email threads or ongoing back-and-forth communication.
Email Forwarding Support
You can now forward emails from your personal address to your LoomLetter address. Our system will recognize the original sender and process the newsletter as if it were sent directly to your LoomLetter inbox.
Streamlined Newsletter Bottom Bar
The bottom bar in newsletters was getting a little crowded, so most options have been moved into a menu popup. Now, only the most essential actions remain easily accessible in the bar.

Build 20-21
Hey folks,
This weekend’s update brings several minor fixes you discovered last week, along with a revamped Login Page.
New Features:
- Log In Revamp: After several reports of users being locked out by accidentally logging out or wanting to sign into a different device, you’ll be happy to know that you can now link your LoomLetter account with Google, Apple, or just email. This will allow you to easily log into your LoomLetter account. Try it out by going to Settings > Connect Account.
- Plain Text Customization: The background and font colors and sizes in the plain text view are now adjustable as well.
- Removed Large Newsletter Header: To improve readability, the large header when viewing a newsletter has been minimized. This gives you much more space to read and reduces redundancy.
Bug Fixes:
- Audio Not Playing: Resolved an issue where audio may stop working after a while.
- Font Size Issue: Users reported fonts disappearing when scaling the newsletter’s font. I’ve put a limit on how small an article’s font size can be to resolve this issue.
- No Results in Explore: When searching for newsletters in Explore, no results now recommend using your LoomLetter address instead of showing an empty list.
- Typos: Several typos have been fixed.
- Theme Colors: Improved theme colors, especially for light mode.
Thanks so much for all the feedback and suggestions you’ve shared. We have plenty more bugs and issues to fix in the upcoming week.
Build 21 Update:
This temporarily removes Google login optional. LoomLetter is currently going through Google's verification process to allow logging in with Google, once approved, it will be added back!new
