Weird. Can you access primal.net in incognito mode? If so, can you login using our remote signer?
We haven't made any changes to the web app in the past few days that could cause this. Let's see if we can get this going for you.

This is excellent. We are going to look into incorporating some (or all) of this into the core product. Nice work @nprofile…46gd!
One reminder to all the Nostr devs out there: let's not centralize around Primal's caching infrastructure. Our stack is open source. Anyone can and should stand up their own instances.

Yes, our signer is built on the standard NIP-46 spec. We follow the spec precisely, there is nothing proprietary in our implementation.
You don't need to trust Primal with your nsec; our entire stack is open, so you can see precisely how we handling it. The idea behind building a signer is precisely to minimize the need for our users to paste their nsec into any new nostr app they wish to try.

I think it's a good idea to prompt the user to confirm if pasting the fully qualified URL is what they actually wanted.

We got these reports before and we’ve had a hard time reproducing them. We’d really appreciate if you could help us with this. Some immediate questions:
1. Are you consistently seeing these issues, or intermittently?
2. If you login into the Primal web app, does everything load quickly?
We’d love to get to the bottom of this.

all primal clients always generate nostr nevent references for mentioned notes. the only way to end up with a primal url is to deliberately paste it in the note.

We just shipped an iOS update (build 2.6.42) which should be more solid all around and address these intermittent crashes that were affecting some of our users.
Please upgrade and let us know if you run into any further issues.

2026-01-18 00:55:55 CET

- reply

Interesting; I honestly never considered this scenario. There is no way to prevent the state where both mute and follow are true (since the user can use a different client to mute or follow).
But I agree: if both mute and follow are true then probably mute should override the follow. We'll make it so.

2026-01-17 21:27:00 CET

Agreed! We will rework this for the 3.0 release.

We don't facilitate that anywhere in our UI. All note mentions generate nostr:nevent format. My guess is that some users copy & paste the url from the browser address bar.

In our experience push notifications won’t help beyond just letting the user know that they should open the app to resume their remote session.

2026-01-07 17:34:06 CET

- reply

Yes, you can easily trigger the signer by using the standard nostrconnect:// uri scheme. That's what a "Login with Nostr" button should do.
We even added support for a convenient "callback" parameter, so Primal will redirect back to your app immediately after establishing the remote connection. If it's a browser app, simply use callback=https://[your_app_login_progress_page] to get redirected back to your app.
@nprofile…0hy6 implemented this flow for some of his web apps; it works great. Derek, maybe you could share a quick video of this in action?

2026-01-07 16:55:30 CET

To clarify, we don't yet support generating the bunker:// string that you can paste into the remote app

You can mute the sound via the dynamic island or lock screen UI. Also the signer should be running only while you have remote sessions going.

Yes, it's already open source

I think it’s fair to say that we broke new ground with our iOS remote signer. People have been trying to build something like this for a long time (even predating Nostr) and afaik all those attempts have been shut down by Apple. Some of our well informed users are concerned that our implementation breaks Apple’s rules and that Primal might get banned from the App Store. I’ll share our experience here so that other builders can benefit from it.
First and foremost: we didn’t try to sneak this feature in. We provided a detailed explanation to the app store review team outlining exactly what we are doing and how. The technical tldr is: the only way to keep your iOS app running in the background is to play sound or dox user location. There is a history of developers trying to hack their way in by playing silent audio tracks or attempting to trick the reviewers (and confuse the users) in other ways.
The key to our success was that we actually built a polished ambient sound feature for our signer. Some users might actually want ambient sound for their remote sessions, so we took great care to pick the appropriate sounds and build polished UI that enables users to control those sounds via the dynamic island or the live activity UI on the lock screen. We also designed an informative sound opt in screen at the beginning of the session. This is important: the user is fully informed and totally in control every step of the way. I am not sure, but it might be helpful that Primal was already a multimedia app so this feature doesn’t feel out of place.
In any case, that’s how we did it; hope it helps other builders. 🫡

Big news Nostr fam: the Primal Remote Signer is here! 🫡
We just released Primal 2.6, which includes a NIP-46 remote signer built into our iOS and Android apps. Now you can use your Primal mobile app to login to any Nostr app that supports the remote login (a.k.a. nsec bunker) standard. IMHO this is the easiest and most secure way to login to Nostr web apps.
Check out Paul’s overview video below. We had to do some crazy stuff to make this work on iOS. Overall this was way harder to build than we anticipated. Try it and let us now how it hits!

Two thoughts on this:
1. We need to get out of the mindset of “building nostr apps”. We simply need to build great products that people want to use, and Nostr will be the underlying protocol. So totally agree with Jack on this.
2. In the long run, we will absolutely displace X and other closed platforms. It will be a grind, but we will wrestle away the network effects from gradually, then suddenly.
