Hi Grapevine Team,

First off, great initiative! I really appreciate the user-friendly interface—well done.

I have a couple of suggestions for improvement:

1. It would be helpful to have an option to sort the news by date.


2. Including the date and time for each news item would add more context.



Thanks for your efforts.

Welcome to Software Engineers's Private Community

Point out features that can be worked upon at Grapevine.

I really like grapevine but I mostly surf it on the web, so I just wanted to share few points that would enhance the experience.

1. Dark mode 
2. Make the post open in new tab( i can't see "open in a new tab" option on right click)
3. Get rid of the get the grapevine component on the right side, it can take a small space on the top right or bottom right, it doesn't have to take so much space IMO.

These are all the changes that I would like to see, i just felt it'd be more visible here rather than on google play review 

what are the changes you all would like to see?

Grapevine Feedback?

Hello Grapeviners, in this week's update - we squashed a bunch of bugs and added some features (please do update your app? 🥹) 

Here’s three new features we def want to mention: 

More Feeds: 
Now you can browse 4 different feeds from the filter menu on the TOP LEFT of the app:

- Popular (Recommended)
- Recent
- Top of the Week (New)
- Top of the Month (New)

Comment Peaker: 
Many threads on Grapevine get busy with sometimes 25+ comments. Now when replying to comments - the new peak feature helps you see the comment in context as you are replying (so you don't have to relocate the comment you are replying to as you type)

Improved Design for large devices: 
We realized Grapevine kinda sucked on large phone screens. We redesigned and fixed this 

Lastly, Thanks for the constant feedback. Please don’t hesitate to Email, DM or reach out with feedback. We will implement everything we can 🥲

That’s it. I haven’t found a news app which is so freaking on point. It’s like they say, you won’t know what greatness is until you see it. 

The options to read news in different format 🤌🏾

Grapevine news is just f*cking lovely!

I open the list of the new joiners section. After 7-8 pages, it starts to just repeat the same update. If I continue to scroll, the entire page just disappears.

Also, a feature request - I'd like to see all the posts created by people from my company. Using the search doesn't seem to be an elegant way to do it.

Grapevine admin, reporting a bug here

Thank you for all the love and support over the last few weeks. :) 

Grapevine is just 5 weeks old and we are a very small team :)  But we are trying address feature requests as they come from you all. A few things from us: 

1. We recommend you update the app from the play/app store for the best experience 
2. As per popular demand - timestamps have now been introduced in the app  (available on latest version)
3. New (and hopefully better) algo for the popular feed has been rolled out 

Lastly, please feel free to drop in your feedback and feature requests in this post. We will try to implement everything we can.

Grapevine January 13th update

Welcome to Gadgets & Apps's Private Community

Please add ‘Draft post’ feature in this app. Sometimes it’s hard to continue writing a long post and can’t finish at one go. We want to save it and write later, I hope you guys are already working on it.

Draft feature - Grapevine

Hey folks, we’ve made tonnes of new changes to Grapevine: 

1. A new look for Grapevine
2. A refreshed app logo 
3. Link-type posts now look better 
4. Image type posts now look smaller and cleaner
5. Lots of new algorithm changes that hopefully send ‘better’ posts to you 
6. Lots of new Private Company Communities (more on this soon)
7. Lots of bug fixes 

As always, looking forward to your feedback and thoughts. 

P.S the DM feature is finally very close xD 
Cheers!

[November Update] A new look for Grapevine

Hello team
I feel there are few gaps in the app

1. If I need referrals from someone, there is no way to get it without disclosing my email in public.

2. The best time to scroll reddit is when you are in a meet. For that I use desktop version of reddit.
Is there an option to have web version of this app?

3. Also I feel there are very limited groups can we add groups like referral and avl jobs?

I’ll go first, do share your thoughts. 

- More ‘grapes’ use case? (Debatable)
- Actual spacing between lines for separate paragraphs, new statements in comments. 
- The ‘replies notifications’ to your post should redirect to the comment not to the post, we end up to have to scroll to find the same comment.
- The ability to re - edit the ‘community tab’ on a post when selected wrong.

What features do you want on Grapevine? Discuss.

Great work, Grapevine team! Been an early user - have seen the product get better. Also the discussions, responses, engagement…. Keep it up!

You read one and all notifications are marked as read. Why?

Also, notifications for the same thread should be grouped together or collapsed in one.

Welcome to Product Managers's Private Community

Hey Folks,

We really do want to deliver the best Grapevine possible for you. 100s of comments and emails over the last few months have been helpful in getting us moving in the right direction. There's also 2-3 awesome launches coming up in the next couple months (many of which were suggested by members here). 

But we thought about getting to speak with a few people in more detail. Specially understand your current use case and long term expectations/product ideas for Grapevine.

If you'll be so kind to come speak with us for 30 minutes, please consider booking a time slot from this calendly link:

Hi guys, if you get a chance to add some features on Grapevine, what would that be?

Additional missing feature on this application

Hey Folks, 

A few updates to Grapevine, so please do update your app from play/app store :) 

1. A new slightly redesigned feed. We’ve adjusted font-weights and spacing to make things easier on your eyes. More refinements coming soon 

2. Post and Comment Insights: You now get insights on posts and comments where you receive more than 7 likes. This will be a feature which all writers on the app will def appreciate :) 

3. A better feed: We are constantly making adjustments to give you a better feed. Efforts such as ‘trending posts for you’ and the upcoming ‘posts you may like’ are efforts in this direction. This is something we want to get better at 

4. Results on Polls: You can now see poll results even before you answer them! We can finally lose the popcorn option. Long time pending, I know…

5. Update on Private Feeds: We now have around 2500 verified users using their company’s private feed. IMO this is one of the deepest and most useful products within Grapevine. Or so I hear :) 

We will launch 25 more companies where we have ‘critical mass’ over the coming 4 weeks! 


Upcoming - we are very close to: 
1. The rollout of DMs on Grapevine (after maybe 1000 users here scolded at us for not making it lol)
2. Rollout of the exciting new Salary Product (middle tab)
3. Grapes 2.0: Updating the Grapes formula to reflect your contribution to the community even more accurately

Your patience and feedback is a privilege we do not take lightly! Thanks Grapeviners, and Happy Friday

Grapevine Update: Insights, Feed, Polls, and more

Grapevine might be among one of the highest growing apps at-least within Indian currently. 

We have people from all sort of backgrounds, culture, geo locations, interests.

While this app and user base has grown a lot since the inception, it still misses out on some key features. 

In your POV what all the features you would like to add,remove?

[Feature Request Thread] Fetures you would like to have in grapevine?

Staff Engineer

Hey Folks, Happy Friday!

We wanted to share what we've been up to, so you know what to expect from the app in the next 1-2 months. 

1. Bugs: We are hard at work trying to solve all the bugs that have slowly crept into Grapevine 😶

2. DMs: A polite way for users to take a few conversations deeper, and share referrals/resumes if they want to. A key worry for us would be to not make this spammy (like a few users pointed out on a recent post), while still staying helpful. 

3. Experience: A smoother, more fluid app experience coming soon

4. Moderation: As posts and comments on Grapevine increase in number - there's also a small 0.1% of users that sometimes post abusive/offensive content. We're taking these issues more seriously. We read every 'report' that you share with us and take action appropriately

5. Grapevine on Web (I swear the first build is super exciting - I'm typing this post out on an early version of Grapevine Web 😉). This should allow people to browse Grapevine while in a boring meeting 😂

6. Salaries: We're building something exciting for better salary information 💰

7. Verification: You may have seen some users on Grapevine are now verified with a blue check. Currently only launched for employees of 3 companies, we'll launch this soon for more companies. This is how we'll raise the bar on trust within Grapevine. And no, we never plan to charge for blue ticks like some other platforms. It's just a darn image ☑️

Please do keep sending your awesome feedback at us, as always! Cheers 🍻

I noticed a UI bug where the text string got truncated on the button. I wish there was a dedicated place to share these issues in Grapevine.
