17th May Update

Hey folks, your favourite office manager here! I wanted to share a few small updates:

  1. ‘You’ Tab: Look to the bottom right of the app and you will now see the ‘You’ tab. This is your PRIVATE home for all your profile info, your past comments, past posts and bookmarks.

Please note: This tab is ONLY visible to you. No one can ever see your past comments/post history on Grapevine. Not even if they ‘Search’ for your user name. Privacy is always a top priority here 🤐

Also try: Changing your user name to something cool like ‘TheExterminator’ and stop being something lame like ‘AverageJoe’

  1. There have been minor bug fixes and small improvements here and there

  2. If you continue to face the Undefined bug error. The only solution so far is to reinstall the app. I know this isn’t ideal, but it is what it is :/

As always - keep throwing new ideas at us and we’ll try to build everything we can

Lastly, something a lot of you have asked for is launching later this week - something we’ve worked on 8+ weeks to build 😇

@Micheal_Scott - I gave a suggestion where the original post should be freezed so that user doesn't have to come at the top to read long post as the content is lost while reading the comments. Will be quite helpful

This is a hard one - specially on small devices. But we will certainly give it a thought :)

Yeah, can imagine. But it will be worth it as I am sure at one point you would have also come to read the actual post while reading the comments

@Micheal_Scott we need a whistle blower section to rip off hypocrites in corporates

@punydrama super interesting idea

While super fun, we need to build more trust/verification into Grapevine before we can do something like that

Certainly don’t want this to become a place for rumours and fake news

hmm. If you solve that problem, you will be the first to successfully regulated the social media

@Micheal_Scott any issues with my name? 🥲

Also, is it the messaging option that's up for launch?

We definitely need something to handle the salary related question, company reviews, or others which are posted in multiple channels

@Dhoni nah sir your name is one of the best.

No messaging is not the feature launching this week :/ We have it half ready since some time but are still thinking of the exact UI due to spam/bullying/abuse issues with this being an anonymous platform

The multiple post problem is being worked on.

@Micheal_Scott
Need a way to select and copy text. Very much needed. Especially because the edit option is not available, I have to delete and rewrite a post if there is error and it's not at all possible to copy the content to clipboard before deleting.

OnePlus phone- maybe that's the reason but still a copy/edit option is required

Oooh I see - this could be helpful. Will put it on the roadmap :)

@Micheal_Scott

Another one that we might need is to hide a post. For eg, I login and see some weird salary post again. So I skip it. But when I close and reopen app, that post would still come on top. So it's a requirement to have a hide option for a post

Direct messaging please!

On its way but will take some more time :/
