Obsidian 1.13.6 Mobile (Public)

By Steven Van · 2026-08-10

Includes all new features and bug fixes up to Obsidian Desktop v1.13.6. New Added swipe-to-close to close tabs in the tab switcher.

Obsidian's mobile app has reached 1.13.6, catching up to the desktop release of the same version, plus a few mobile-only changes.

Tabs can now be closed in the tab switcher with a swipe, and the remaining tabs animate into their new position.
The mobile toolbar settings page now shows icons next to each command.
Checkboxes scale proportionally to the font size, and Settings gets minor improvements in landscape mode.
Fixed commands like "Open local graph" opening a new tab group on phones, where tab groups aren't supported.
On iOS, fixed the editor sometimes selecting an entire paragraph after double-tapping text or dragging the cursor.

Full details are in the changelog.
