End-of-tuss results, redesigned. When a tuss wraps you now get a paper-stamp results card: winning side, podium of top takes, who voted for what, and a quick Distussions / Takes / Share action row. Confetti when there's a clear winner. Watch any tuss. Tap Watch on a live tuss and we'll ping you the moment it ends so you don't miss the result. React to distussions. Pick from five emoji reactions instead of just a like, and quote-reply lets you respond to a specific line. Daily quests and streaks. Show up, debate, vote - earn points and keep your streak alive. Skin in the game. Voting costs a point, but back the winning side and you get it back doubled. No more vote-and-forget. Sharper profile. New Rivals row shows the people you've head-to-head'd most. The Get started checklist now has a dismiss button once you're rolling. Better counts everywhere. Take and distussion numbers on the feed now match exactly what you see when you tap in. Plus push notifications when a tuss you care about ends, sharper take cards for sharing, and a stack of bug fixes.

### New Features - **Feed-style navigation everywhere** — tapping a tuss tile from anyone's profile, from search results, or from the trending grids now drops you into an immersive vertical feed seeded with that tuss. From a profile the feed is scoped to that creator's other tusses; from search it continues into For You. Keep swiping instead of dead-ending on one page. - **Takes tab on every user profile** — other users' profiles now have a **Tuss / Takes** tab bar so you can browse a tusser's takes the same way you browse their tusses. Private-group content stays hidden unless you're a member. - **Follower & Following on anyone's profile** — tap the Followers or Following count on any profile to see who's in their network. Rows tap through to that user's profile. - **Browse-by category chips on Search** — a new horizontal chip row at the top of Search (**Tusses · Takes · Users · Tags · Groups**) jumps into a focused trending list for each category. - **New trending browse screens** — Trending Users (popular creators) and Trending Topics (hashtags with usage counts), reachable from the Browse-by chips. Trending Tusses (immersive feed) and Trending Takes (3-col grid) reachable from `See all` links on the corresponding discover sections. ### Improvements - **Refreshed Search**: - **Live autocomplete** — picking a specific user, tag, tuss, take, or group jumps you straight to that entity instead of re-submitting a text search. A `Search for "X"` row stays at the top so free-text queries are still one tap away. - **Cancel button** replaces the old "Search" text-button — taps clear state, dismiss the keyboard, and return you to Discover. - **Section names** tightened from "Popular Tuss" → **Trending tusses**; "Popular Takes" → **Trending takes**. "Tussups" labels on the profile and search pages are now **Tuss**. - **See all** links on Trending grids open the full list. - **Hashtag pages** now use the same look-and-feel as the home Feed tab — thin top bar with the `#tagname` displayed inline with the back button, and the immersive feed snapping cleanly between tusses (fixes a layout bug where you'd see slivers of the previous/next tuss when paging). - Tile-tap from the **self Profile › Tuss tab** also lands on the feed-style view and lets you scroll through your other tusses. ### Bug Fixes - Avatar rows no longer crash when a user's name field is null in the database. - Take tiles no longer crash if an orphan take's parent resolution has been removed. ### Notes - The AI-suggested related-hashtags chip strip on hashtag pages has been removed in favor of the cleaner home-feed layout; the related-tags backend is still in place and can return later.

### Improvements - Comments are now called **distussions** throughout the app — same feature, on-brand naming. Affects in-app labels, dialogs, and push-notification copy. - **Inbox › Activity** rows now show the right thumbnail — the tuss/take preview when there is one, the actor's avatar otherwise — instead of falling back to a generic heart/chat icon. ### Bug Fixes - Tapping an activity item ("X liked your tuss", "X commented on your take", …) now opens the tuss/take/profile instead of the "This activity is no longer available" alert.

### New Features - **Every tussup view is an infinite-scroll feed** — opening a tussup from a share link, push, profile click, search result, or map tap lands you in a feed seeded with that tussup, so you can keep swiping through For You instead of dead-ending on one page ### Improvements - **iOS Hotspot map** rewritten on top of MapLibre Native (Carto dark raster tiles, matching the Android build). Cell thumbnails render directly inside markers, and the map only fetches once per pan/zoom instead of every camera frame — fixes the freeze when the screen first appeared - **Map taps land in the same scrollable feed** — tapping a thumbnail or pin opens the seeded-feed view so users keep moving instead of getting stuck on one tussup - **Feed swipe flow** now walks the full Tuss → Takes → Summary sequence in both directions. Swipe-left from a tuss lands on take 1 (was jumping straight to the summary), and swipe-right from the summary lands on the last take so you can step back through them - **End-of-reel summary** now invites you to be the first when no one's posted a take yet — replaces the empty podium with a "Drop the first take" CTA ### Bug Fixes - Fixed iOS map pan/pinch not working — marker children no longer intercept gestures, modal overlays no longer linger when closed, and nav-stack swipe-back doesn't compete with map gestures ---

### Improvements - **End-of-reel summary** now invites you to be the first when no one's posted a take yet — replaces the empty podium with a "Drop the first take" CTA so the empty state nudges participation instead of feeling abandoned - **Hotspot map** rewritten on top of MapLibre Native with Carto dark raster tiles. Cell thumbnails render directly inside markers (no off-screen captureRef compositor), and the map only fetches once per pan/zoom instead of every camera frame — fixes the freeze when the screen first appeared - **Feed swipe flow** now walks the full Tuss → Takes → Summary sequence in both directions. Swipe-left from a tuss now lands on take 1 (was jumping straight to the summary), and swipe-right from the summary now lands on the last take so you can step back through them

### New Features - **Multi-language support** — full localization across 10 languages (English, Spanish, French, Portuguese, German, Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Arabic, Hindi); switch in Settings → Language - **Hotspot map** — see where debates are happening around you; jump into your city or neighborhood - **Address search** with geocoding and a friendlier location permission primer - **Scheduled tussups** — creators can set a future start time; the tussup stays hidden until then and shows a "Starts in X" countdown on your profile - **Universal Links** — `/s/:code` share URLs open directly in the app - **Group share button** — share groups from the group detail screen - **Share attribution** — new sign-ups are credited to the person whose share link brought them in - **Interests in onboarding** — pick your topics during sign-up so your feed is personalized from the very first session ### Improvements - Smarter For You feed: impression tracking, seen-penalty to reduce repeats, resurface boost for older content, and geo decay to prioritize nearby debates - Localized onboarding, awards, search, inbox, and saved screens
