From Discord:

Hello @everyone,

Unfortunately today is the day I have to announce that LunaSea is no longer being published and all related cloud services (including notifications) will be shut down in the near future.

For more information on when things will be shut down, please read the details here: https://www.lunasea.app/


I understand that this comes as a surprise and originally was not the intention for the project. However, with recently enforced changes by the Play Store (and possible other storefronts in the future) to require showcasing your legal personal residential address, I am no longer comfortable publishing mobile applications for privacy reasons.

Luckily for some time I have been able to get around this by utilizing an older ID to showcase an address I no longer reside at. Unfortunately, this no longer works and I am required to re-verify which I am not willing to do.


With this shut down also marks the closure of the Discord and Subreddit. For the time being this Subreddit and Discord will remain open, however all channels have been removed and no new posts allowed in the subreddit.

Once again, thank you to everyone for everything over the years, I couldn’t have asked for a better community. ❤️

    Personal opinion, but for android at least, I always though nzb360 was dramatically better. May be a good alternative for anyone who will be missing LunaSea there.

    Too bad about iOS though, the options there have always been sparse.

      I looked it up and it looks really good. Kinda gushing over that torrent monitoring and Readarr support in beta.

      Because they don’t want to obviously and is using this as a good way to shut down their work

    The writing was on the wall for this one, development had effectively ended two years ago and had already slowed down significantly before that.

      Depends on what you need it for. The only way I need to interact with arr stuff normally is add new things. This I do with Ombi, which has a great app.
