It’s the age of technology, and if you’re anything like the rest of us who regularly scroll through Tumblr while pretending to work, you might be wondering about its support for iOS 15. Well, buckle up, because the news isn’t exactly the happiest of rides! 🌈
Starting with version 34.5 of the Tumblr app, iOS 15 is officially no longer supported. Yes, you heard that right. If you’ve been lagging behind, clinging to that 15 like a security blanket, it’s time to break out of that comfort zone and consider an upgrade. As of now, the latest version out there is iOS 17.5, and honestly, it’s probably flashing its ‘cool-kids-only’ sign in your face while iOS 15 mopes in the corner.
But don’t you fret! If upgrading your device seems as appealing as watching paint dry, Tumblr still has your back. You can always hop over to your Safari or whatever browser you fancy and enjoy a delightful jaunt through your dashboard. Posting that cringe-worthy fan art or reliving those blessed days of cat memes won’t escape you just yet, even if your app treats you like yesterday’s news.
Let’s face it, technology moves fast, and developers move even faster. It’s like watching a parade of new features while desperately trying to catch the last slice of pizza at a party. However, if you’re staunchly resisting the upgrade—or you can’t because your device just won’t make that leap—don’t let it pull your spirits down. Just turn to the web version of Tumblr, where time seems to freeze and the glory of chaos still reigns supreme.
Navigating to tumblr.com in your browser lets you experience that whimsical world of blogs, reblogs, and arguments over ship names just as if you were in the app (just with maybe a couple of extra buttons to click, but you can survive that, right?). Plus, you’ll be getting that retro, ‘before the era of apps’ flair. It’s like embracing your inner hipster: “Oh, you use an app? How quaint. I stick to the classics.”
In the end, while Tumblr’s support for iOS 15 might feel like a broken promise, it really isn’t the end of the world—or your adoration for all things fabulously weird and wonderfully chaotic. Just update if you can, or dock your boat in the browser and keep sailing the meme-seas. Sure, it may not be ideal, but in a pinch, you can still partake in the indie spirit of Tumblr without missing a beat. So, gear up, upgrade, or surf the web like it’s 2005. Your favorite corner of the internet is waiting! 🦄
