Actually Hangout v0.86.0 This update is all about Pindrops, plans, and making it easier to actually show up. Pindrops redesigned The Pindrop editor has a fresh layout — a map up top, a horizontal photo strip, a compact caption, and a "here until" timer slider all in one place. Pindrops can now hold multiple photos, shown as a swipeable carousel right in your feed. Join with one tap See a friend dropped somewhere nearby? Tap Join to hop in — we use your location to add you to the moment. Owners can turn on open-join so anyone can slide through, and collaborators can add their own photos. A smarter Saves screen Your Lists now preview at the top of Saves, and the full Lists screen is a clean two-column grid of cards, with a "Create new list" card always ready. Invites where you'll see them Pending invitations now sit in a carousel at the top of your Upcoming tab, count badge included. Accept or decline right there and it disappears. No RSVPing to the past You can't accidentally accept a hangout that already happened — past invites show an "already happened" state so you can simply dismiss them. Voice your plans (iPhone) The AI hangout planner now has a mic button. Tap it, say what you're thinking, and we turn your voice into text you can edit. Tap to navigate Tap an experience's address to open directions in your maps app. Other improvements - Feeds refresh automatically after you edit a Pindrop or add photos - Fresh, rotating suggestions in the reach-out note field - General polish and reliability improvements throughout As always, let us know what you think — your feedback shapes what we build next.

Actually Hangout v0.85.0 is here! Big one this time — we gave the app a brain. Meet your new assistant, put your hangouts on your real calendar, and get a nudge before things start. Say hello to your assistant Explore search got a full glow-up. There's a clean new search bar up top and a dedicated results screen that splits your answer into Places, Events, and Activities, with a smart AI answer right at the top. The answer even has tappable citations, so you can see exactly where a recommendation came from. And when you ask the assistant to handle something for you, it shows you a plan first and waits for your OK before it does anything. Hangouts on your real calendar Accept an invite or create a hangout and it now lands on your phone's calendar automatically, with the real start and end times. It's on by default, you can turn it off in settings, and it never creates duplicates. Reminders so nobody forgets Hosts can now add their own timed reminders to a hangout — pick a time before it starts, write a message, and everyone going gets the nudge. Attendees also get an automatic heads-up about an hour before. Weather and hours warnings When you're planning a hangout, we'll now flag things worth knowing, like rough weather in the forecast or a venue that's closed at your chosen time, right on the draft and the detail screen. Share when you're free You can now share a personal availability page so people can request a time that works for you. Toggle it on from your calendar, share the link, and rotate it anytime. Requests come right back to you to accept or pass. People, your way The People page got a search bar and friend tags, so finding and grouping your people is finally easy. You can also mark someone as hide my posts — they'll quietly stop seeing your posts, moods, and availability by default, and we'll confirm before it takes effect. Pinch to zoom Full-screen photos and videos now support pinch-to-zoom, and we moved the close button to a comfier spot. Other goodies - Ideas with video now show a crisp thumbnail everywhere they appear - The side drawer shows your current app version with a latest chip - Faster, lighter image loading — less waiting and less data used - Upcoming hangouts are sorted by whatever's happening soonest Bug fixes As always, tell us what you think.
