System & Authentication

Security:

Owners can no longer edit or delete content of other users inside their Huddle. After long consideration the need for a “monitor” role to prevent unwanted posting of data is minimised, because only a maximum of 5 people can be inside a Huddle. The integrity of your own data and equal rights inside your huddle by design is one of the core features the app was founded on. Data integrity however cannot leave the door open for criminals or unlawful data and therefore a report feature will be added in the future.

New Features:

Memories and Updates have merged to just Memories. The functionality of auto deletion does not required two different views, with different notifications and comment sections
Added a short onboarding for new Huddles that are visible for 3 days (change name, add people, add a picture)
Memories on the overview screen are now smaller in height, contain less information and are easier to navigate
Memory cards (detail screen) now contain more information regarding their recurrence and the date they were created
The chat for Updates and Memories now supports inline links and the option to copy messages
The settings screen now contains a new tab for legal information and support & feedback
The Huddle settings now contain an option to manage encrypted notifications
The flows for creating a Memory and Update are now simplified
Images can now be stored as SD or HD resolution
The settings screens now use a clean layout
The Huddle creation process now contains more steps in smaller iterations to make the process easier
Users can now join the Android beta live test
Users can now clear the local image cache to force redownloads and to clean up device’s storage
You can now individually per Huddle change notification settings. The default is set to Every Notification and can be adjusted individually. There is a new Silence Feature that will only allow one notification to be present to reduce the amount of open notifications
To support legal bindings and privacy laws you can now: Leave a Huddle by yourself, Delete a Huddle and download your data and images directly from the app
Memories will now auto-sync comments and reactions from Updates to make continuing the conversation as easy as possible

Bug fixes:

Locations can now also be triggered from the web version
Sending videos on IOS no longer crashes the app
Images from Updates are now automatically removed from the storage after the deletion period
Switching the Huddle via the Quick option should now result in less UI freezes
Notifications were not automatically cleared from the CatchUp widget or the device if the user navigated to them by hand
Locally cached images are now listed in the files & quota view and can be cleared
Updates are no longer visible after the retention period.
Navigating to a Memory from the CatchUp Widget now returns back to the initial widget on back-navigation. (This makes it faster and easier to go through all notifications)
