April Fools Day features on the app version?
Are the April Fools Day “features” only part of the online editor, or is there an option to get to use them for the offline app version of Scratch?
If not, then that's fair enough.

April Fools Day features on the app version?
I have tested out the Offline Editor, and no, the April Fools' Day features are only for the online version.
Some rules that aren't mentioned or clarified in the Community Guidelines or the Terms of Use:
- 'The Browser Extension/Userscript Policy' (why you can't say the name of a certain browser extension that lots of Scratchers use)
- '“Art theft” and our remixing policy' (why people are allowed to recolour your OCs with credit)
- 'Shops, Points, and Pretend Currency Systems' (why you technically aren't allowed to use follows as a prize in contests)
- '“Music Sharing” Projects' (why that Imagine Dragons music project from 2021 was taken down)
- “Face Reveal” Projects (why you're not allowed to share your face on Scratch, even if someone wants to draw a portrait of you)
- “Five Nights at Freddy's” (why that fangame you spent a month working on, complete with jumpscares and a traumatising backstory, is not allowed)

April Fools Day features on the app version?
There are lots of people who only use the offline editor and are unware of the April Fools' easter eggs in the project editor, so it'd be quite confusing for them. This is probably why they decided to joke around only on the website, and not make any jokes outside of the website.
April Fools' topics:
— New Buildings in Scratch's headquarters
— Give every Scratcher an M1 MacBook Air
— Scratch should let users edit other Scratchers' projects
— Make a statue for Jeffalo
— Scratch Tech Tips™
— Make a Chiroyce statue emoji
