Black Ink for iOS 2.4.2: Inline Clue Images and Bug Fixes

May 27th, 2025

Black Ink for iOS 2.4.2 is now available on the App Store

This update brings the same category of improvements to the iOS app that were recently added to the Mac app.

Namely, when a puzzle has clues that include inline images, they are now rendered properly in the app’s selected clue area:

Complete list of changes for this release:

  • Restored and improved handling of inline images in puzzle clues
  • Fix a bug where progress made on Imported Puzzles was not persisted
  • Fix a bug that caused a crash if Imported Puzzles cannot be loaded
  • Prevent a gap appearing between the keyboard and clue after showing settings
