CAN - Creative Applications Network (since 2008)
Activity is a whole new way to interact with content, ideas, and each other on CAN. Built on the best ideas of the early web, it focuses on what matters most — our interaction with each other. A live record of what's flowing across our network, out into the world, and back into our community.
——
- Community Activity Feed
See what's happening across the network — new articles, interactive content, events, member activity, comments, channels and more.
- Content Filters
Customise your feed to focus on what matters. Toggle articles, events, member activity, discussions, and archive updates.
- Member Profiles
Discover community members and their work. Bios, locations, websites, and social links.
- Engage & Interact
Post, comment, like, and save articles, events, people, and tools to your personal collection.
- Themes
Seven built-in themes, many others available in the #themes channel, or build your own — synced across the site, app, and widgets.
- Watch App
Activity is on Apple Watch. Live feed, unread indicators, mentions, a 7-day activity graph complication, and background refresh — right from your wrist.
- Thoughtful Details
Greyscale image mode with film grain, haptic feedback, and smooth animations throughout.
- Join from the App
Subscribe to Standard, Supporter, or Studio membership directly — no website needed. Manage your subscription through the App Store.

Activity is built with love and care, for our community.

What's New in 2.1.0
• Search is here — find Activity entries and members right from the sidebar or the floating bar. Build a search with multiple terms, see live results as you type, and jump straight into a thread or profile. Recent searches are saved for quick access.
• Smarter scrolling — after loading a few pages automatically, the feed now pauses and asks if you'd like to keep going, narrow things down with filters, or search instead — so you're never stuck in an endless (doom) scroll.
• Faster threads — opening a thread, especially older ones, was slower than it needed to be. Threads now stay ready-to-serve and refresh only when they actually change, so they open noticeably quicker and jumping into a past conversation feels instant — especially when you find it through search.
• Liquid Glass (iOS 26) — a new appearance option in Settings lets you enable Apple's Liquid Glass look on the floating bar and its menus.
• Stats improvements — 7-day charts now always show the full week in the right order, and totals are calculated more accurately.
Also included:
- Article previews now gracefully fall back if a linked source is temporarily unreachable
- Fixed the Apply Theme button missing from posts in thread view
- Channels list rows now align cleanly
- Widget and Watch app update instantly when you mark entries as read
- Various small visual polish and bug fixes
