Gatherings, leveled up. Weddings and race weekends: Every Gathering has its own flavor now, and its guest list shows who you know and what they're there for. Races even get the course map, so you can pin your cheer spot right on the route. Your events, your way: Add your own events to a Gathering with the details, a guest limit, and a pin on the map. Every event has its own thread, so you can chat with everyone going. Build My Week: Swipe through a Gathering's events to pick what you're interested in, then Share My Week so friends can plan around you. Calendar-ing made easier: Pick any Google account to use for your avec calendar sync, separate from your login. Meetups work even without a calendar connected. Plus a faster start, a fresh welcome for new users, and plenty of polish.

Gatherings are here. Big weeks - conferences, festivals, tech weeks, weddings - are now something you can build in avec. Join a Gathering, pick your events, and see where your paths cross with the people you know along the way. Every event is better with people you know. Now you can figure that out easier.

New in this release: Tentative trips let you share plans before you’re sure you’re going. See who’s already going to be there, who might want to join, or who you could convince to come. Trip invites make it easy to add friends to your trip - they get an invite and can confirm they’re coming along.

avec now automatically imports trips from your calendar. When you book a flight, we'll create the trip for you - it’s just up to you to set who you want to share it with. New push notifications have been added so you'll be reminded to reach out to your friends when a trip is coming up or when someone in your network is headed your way.

Big fixes and usability improvements.
