A better reading and replying experience on Grapevine

Hello Grapeviners, in this week's update - we squashed a bunch of bugs and added some features (please do update your app? šŸ„¹)

Hereā€™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 donā€™t hesitate to Email, DM or reach out with feedback. We will implement everything we can šŸ„²

We can't go to a person's profile and see the posts they created. Is that intentional?

Yes to protect their identity over time

DM is a must šŸšØšŸšØ

Honestly want to make the DM feature. Its on the list. But need to make it mindfully. Good members will use DMs in useful ways. But a spammy user can really bother a lot of people šŸ„²

Some sort of credit requirement. Credit could be earned by actively replying or posting on the app. Increases retention and engagement. Also, ability to report user as spam, if enough strikes against a user. User could be barred from using DM feature for a month or so. This is complex I know šŸ«

Also undefined is a big issue when clicking on notifs / posts, wasn't the case till a couple of weeks back. As for the size issue, it's a bit bigger than I prefer, but not absurd.

Yes, I too am facing this. Notifications got broken with this update.

Hey team, Please do navigate the links to another grapevine post in app instead of opening it in webpage.

@Doctorstrange can you elaborate more? Is this for links you share with other people/friends? Will look into this āœŒļø

Check out this post on Grapevine - https://share.gvine.app/1eFgCAoNqvoZxsbW7

This link opens in a browser. It should rather navigate to the post within the app.

Also clicking on a notification from notification drawer for a reply should auto scroll to the reply/comment

Why can't we undo our selection to polls, sometime we selected randomly and trying to correct no option to change or undo..

Will try to find a solution if we can to this. Undoing polls is usually a tricky feature and takes time :/

  1. Need better notifications.
  2. Navigating my comments easier in a post.

My phone vibrates quite violently whenever I "like" a post, I'd like to turn it off
