WHY HELLO LOVELY HERDERS! Welcome to herd 2.0! We couldn't be more thrilled to have you here. In case you haven't herd, let us give you the rundown on this version:
HERDS
Each week, we place you into a herd, a.k.a. group chat of 30 people or less that share two of your interests. We even give you a group prompt to kick-off the conversation. At the end of the week, you can save your herd if you liked it, or leave it behind.
MESSAGING
You can now chat directly with other members by tapping the chat icon on their profile
PROFILES
We have made it easier for you to express yourself authentically. Your profile now automatically shows the pics you have uploaded over the last week, along with your interests, handle & pronouns (if you choose)
NAVIGATION
Say hello to an improved experience! You can now find all the main pages of the app on the bottom navigation, and the secondary tools on the side navigation. On the side, you can also adjust your profile image and handle.
OTHER THINGS
Along with the changes listed above, we have removed "feels", eliminated the home page, and hid the connect feed. We also squashed some bugs... because nobody likes those!
