NO DEAD ENDS: every screen now has a way back. Open the Reunion, the jury or a live event from a notification and Back takes you home instead of leaving you stuck. NOTHING CUT OFF: long cards scroll, rule cards fit the screen, and names, labels and banners read in full on every iPhone, from the SE to the iPhone Duo. Plus: the winner's crowning has a close button, the eviction screen's "Back to The Mansion" goes to the Mansion, and the game lobby counts seats correctly. CHALLENGES REACH EVERYONE: every house challenge now shows up for every player, and a vote that doesn't go through tells you so instead of doing nothing.

THE HOST RUNS THE MEETING: raise your hand and she gives you the floor, one voice at a time. Ask her who voted who out and she'll tell you, straight from the record. A REAL WELCOME: walk into a house and a housemate pulls you aside within a minute. Your first night is gentler too: no double eviction on nights 1 and 2. TONIGHT, AT A GLANCE: every daytime game now tells you what happens at 8 PM and what it does for you before then. YOUR SEASON: evicted? Home tells you you're on the jury, and who won when it's over. THE REUNION: the cast comes back on time, with the Queen on the throne. Plus: fewer notifications (one evening roundup instead of a buzz every hour), the Throwdown and the vote reveal use the whole iPhone Duo screen, short whispers ask before sending, and dozens of fixes from a full-season playtest.

BUILT FOR IPHONE DUO: the Mansion fills the outer screen, and opens up to two panes on the inner screen: the vote, the live house map and Mayhem TV side by side. THE EVICTION REVEAL: after every vote, see who went home, who was saved, and the count that put them there. POWER OF VETO (nights 4 and 11): win the day and pull someone off the block, or keep it as it is. AUDIENCE SAVE (nights 5 and 12): three on the block, and the audience saves one. THE JURY: evicted players come back on finale night to hear the Final Speeches and vote for the winner. THE CROWN: the season ends with a crowning ceremony and the top three on stage. LIVE EVENTS: everything happening right now across the houses, in one place. MEMBERSHIPS: Mansion+, Pro and the new Max, monthly or yearly. More whispers every day, and Max is unlimited. Plus: a rules guide you can replay any time, a final confessional after eviction, and smoother voice playback.

THE REUNION: every season ends with a live Reunion show. The cold open plays, the Host welcomes the whole cast back, introduces everyone, and puts the season's biggest beefs in the hot seat. Talk live, raise your hand, chat, and vote in the cast poll. RSVP right from your eviction receipt. START YOUR OWN MANSION: name it, keep it private (invite code only) or open it to everyone, and choose AI housemates or All Real for the empty seats. You start the season when your people are in. FIND A HOUSE: search by city or state, house or host name, invite code, or someone's @handle, or browse the open houses you can join. All Real houses are 20 real players and no AI. THE HOUSE NOMINATES: nominations open at 6 PM. The two housemates with the most nominations go on the block. DOUBLE EVICTION NIGHTS: the vote room shows Vote 1 of 2 and who already went home tonight, and the Cast screen lists every eviction night by night. SAFER PRIVATE CHATS: report or block anyone from whispers and alliance chat. Blocked players can't whisper you. Plus: your city locks in for the season, and screens hold together at larger text sizes.

New at the House Party: What's In It? THE PARTY GAME: the Host names a cocktail and you build the recipe from the bar, with trivia rounds in between. Top score of the night wins 100 coins. It's a knowledge game for players 18+: nobody is asked to drink anything. NOW ON IPAD: the house on one side, you on the other. The vote splits down the middle, house meetings keep your alliance chat beside the room, and the party chat stays open next to the dance floor. YOUR COVER: your profile is now a magazine cover, with your real Player DNA built from how you actually play: your votes, alliances, call-outs and what you say at house meetings. FACECAST IS FREE: step onto the red carpet for a paparazzi photo shoot (with a hands-free timer) and pick your best shot. It becomes your face in the house, and on your eviction receipt. MORE DRAMA COUNTS: speaking up at house meetings, fights, whispers, party dedications and MVP votes now add to your drama score. PARTY IS LIVE: Home shows "Live now" with a Join button, and every phone plays the same song at the same second. Report or block anyone at the party. Plus: share your eviction receipt as an image, invite links that open the right house, and run it back with your clique.

The party has a DJ now. THE HOUSE PARTY DJ: a real DJ voice between every song. "That was Big Pressure, up next..." plus shout-outs to the most toasted guest. DEDICATE A SONG: send the next song out to someone at the party. The DJ reads your dedication right before it drops. THE HOST RUNS THE NIGHT: she welcomes you in, reads every Hot Seat question out loud, calls last call, and crowns the Party MVP. TALK AT THE PARTY: join the party voice and talk with the house live. ONE MUTE BUTTON: silence the whole party with one tap when you need to.

Play for your city. THE LADDER: pick your home city and play in its house. The Host hosts the Detroit house, the Miami house, the Houston house, and every house you win climbs your city up the board. THE HOUSE PARTY: Fridays at 7 PM, right before the vote. Pool, DJ, the Hot Seat, toasts and shade, and a Party MVP who takes the prize. Invite friends from outside the house. FIGHT NIGHT: book a time for your throwdown and the whole house gets the push. Housemates back a side until the bell. No-shows lose by forfeit. YOUR CLIQUE, FRONT AND CENTER: your clique now sits on Home, and everyone in the house can see who walked in together. Plus the Tonight card, themed nights all week, and a LIVE mark wherever the show's name appears.

Roll in with your crew. CLIQUES: start a clique, share the code, and walk into the same house with up to five friends. Same side, same war room, same target on your back. A NEW FRONT DOOR: the Mansion now opens on the house lit up at night, the cast already inside, and a red carpet to your seat. SAFER HOUSE: we ask your age range when you join (never your birthday) and shape what you see to fit. Phone numbers, emails, addresses and slurs are blocked in every chat, and every voice note and video confessional is reviewed before the house hears it. THE VAULT, RESTOCKED: a one-time $0.99 Starter Pack, the Season 2 pass, and more coin packs to choose from. CALLBACK, FOR REAL: get voted out while holding a Callback and the other nominee goes home instead. BACK TO THE HOUSE: once you've voted, the whole Mansion opens back up so you can keep playing.

House Meetings are now a live episode. The house walks in to Vybe's "Baddie On The Beat," then the Host takes the floor, spills the tea, and calls out what you just said. Say a housemate's name or @ them in chat and they answer you, out loud. Fights are live: call someone out, they accept, you both ready up and throw down together in real time. New notification inbox and bell, so you never miss a call-out, alliance invite, meeting or vote. Alliances now form the moment an invite is accepted. The Confessional Booth: record your 20-second confessional for the house. Late arrivals join the running season with protection to get their footing. Fixes and polish throughout.
