Hey everyone,
First, I want to apologize for the issues with the previous update. I know some of you experienced problems with servers, buffering, extensions, and other parts of the app.
Thank you to everyone who reported these issues and stayed patient while they were being worked on. Your bug reports and feedback have been really helpful in improving AniWings.
With that said, AniWings Mobile v1.2.1 and Android TV v1.2.3 are now available!
A lot has been reworked in this release — including the UI, servers, extensions, profiles, metadata providers, support options, and Android TV login.
What’s been added recently:
📱 Android Mobile v1.2.1
- Completely Reworked UI: The interface has been redesigned with several layout and visual improvements throughout the app.

- Profile Customization: More options have been added for customizing your AniWings profile.
- Support Page: A dedicated Support page has been added for anyone who would like to help with the ongoing maintenance of AniWings. You can optionally watch an ad to provide a small amount of support. This is completely voluntary and is never required to use AniWings or any of its features. Simply using the app, reporting bugs, and sharing feedback already helps a lot.
