Beacon is how you find your friends when they're already out and how they find you. No feeds. No posts. Just a flame on a map that says, I'm in.

New features - Peek — see which friends have active beacons even while yours is off, with a peek pill and a closest-first list; tap a row to jump to that friend on the map. Reciprocity still enforced (you must light your beacon to see locations). - Search Users — new search-based flow for finding and adding friends (replaces the old Add Friend sheet); search by first/last name. - Circles & audience control — target a beacon to specific friend circles; adjust who can see your lit beacon, with notifications to newly-added friends. - Beacon messages — edit your beacon message; recipients get a push when it changes. - Silence notifications from specific users. - Edit profile — change first name, last name, and username from Settings.
