Voice rooms now give the conversation room to breathe: the chat takes most of the screen, and hosts get clearer tools to bring people on stage. • More space for chat: the stage shows only the people speaking plus one seat to join, the room notice folds to a single line, and the stage tucks away while you scroll back through the chat. • Translate any post: posts, comments, profile bios and notices all have a translate button now, and it stays hidden when the text is already in your language. • Raised hands, handled: hosts see each raised hand on a card with the person's languages and bring them up in one tap. Anyone waiting stays in a queue instead of getting lost. • Invited to the stage: a clear card shows who invited you, and you always join muted. If you're away from the app, a notification lets you know. • Never start alone: while you wait in a new room, pick a conversation topic in one tap. The first listener gets quick ways to say hi. • Trivia in voice rooms: hosts can start a trivia game where speakers race to answer, with a leaderboard after every round. • Edit the room notice anytime: hosts can change it without leaving the room. • Easier sign-up: a progress bar, your country filled in for you, and people to follow before you start. Signed up with Apple or Google? You can now add an email login too. Also: no more splash screen flashing between sign-up steps or at launch, and the board no longer gets stuck while scrolling past photo posts. Enjoying b3rri?

Quizzes now come to you — right in your home feed. • Quizzes in your feed: a quiz you haven't solved yet now shows up between posts on your home feed, in the language you're learning or the one you speak. Solve it right there. • Translate from your language: translate quizzes now show the sentence in your native language when a translation is available. • Pinch to resize: on a voice room whiteboard, pinch a photo or GIF with two fingers to make it bigger or smaller. • Never miss a guest: if you open a voice room and switch to another app while you wait, b3rri lets you know when someone joins. • Quick match in chats: a quick-match offer now appears even while you're in a chat, so you don't miss someone who's free to talk. Also: a link without a preview no longer makes a DM jump while you scroll, and the same quiz can't be posted twice. Enjoying b3rri? A quick rating helps other language learners find us.

Turn the mistake you keep making into practice: 1.0.32 brings Quizzes to b3rri, written by language learners and explained by native speakers. • Quizzes: create and solve four kinds — fill in the blank, multiple choice, find the error and translate. Native speakers explain the answer, and anything you miss is saved for review. • Share and like quizzes: send a quiz to a chat partner, or like one right from its card. • Tags on board posts: add tags as you write, then tap a tag to browse every post that uses it. • More time for quick match: a voice match now waits three minutes for both of you to answer, so there's time to pick up the notification and still join. Also: voice rooms no longer show people who already left, stage changes are shown only to hosts and co-hosts, in-app notifications are easier to read, and the voice call screen is tidier.

When the host expands the whiteboard, everyone's expands. • Room-wide whiteboard: a host or co-host expanding the whiteboard in a voice room expands it on every screen, and anyone joining mid-session opens it the way the room is showing it. • Fewer interruptions: if you've turned notifications off in Settings, b3rri no longer asks again every time you reopen the app. • Swipe one, keep the rest: dismissing a live notification no longer clears every other one. • The right Loopi: tapping "liked your Loopi" opens that video, not whichever one loaded first. Also: links that end a sentence now resolve their preview card. Enjoying b3rri? A quick rating helps other language learners find us.

A partner list that actually matches you. • Language partners are now ranked by how well you match — two-way matches first — and load as you scroll instead of all at once • The order reshuffles each time you open it, so it's never the same faces on top • Language levels now show on the profile card inside a DM • The login screen remembers how you signed in last time • We ask about notifications when there's something to notify you about, not on every launch • Tap the home tab again for the newest posts; tap the chat tab again to jump to the top of your DMs • Fixes and polish throughout

Language levels are here. • Set how well you speak each language — Beginner to Proficient — and see everyone else's level at a glance • Add the languages you can teach, right beside your native one • Levels now show on profiles, home, search and partner cards, so you can tell who's a match before you say hello • Voice rooms: room controls are now in one tools sheet • Cleaner search — best matches read as full rows • Fewer duplicate photos in the feed • Fixes and polish throughout

Say how much of a language you actually have — and find the people worth practicing with. LANGUAGE LEVELS Every language you're learning now carries a level, from beginner to fluent. Premium members can track up to three at once, so you're matched on where you actually are. SEE WHO SPEAKS WHAT Open chat member lists now show each person's native and learning languages, and the drawer lists everyone in the room. MUTE ANY ROOM DMs, groups, open chats — mute any of them and the notifications stop while your unread count keeps working. Muted rooms are properly silent now: no toast, no vibration. ALSO IN THIS UPDATE • Open chat messages and @mentions send notifications reliably • Shared b3rri links open the app instead of bouncing you to the App Store • Profile photos fade in instead of popping • Tighter filtering on unsolicited contact requests in DMs • Deleting your account now leaves your group and open rooms cleanly Something broken? support@b3rri.com — we read all of it.

Do it together: 1.0.26 turns voice rooms into a place where everyone watches, draws and talks at once — and everything shared in a chat now opens right where it sits. • Watch a Loopi together: play a Loopi in a voice room and the whole room watches it at the same time, in a theater layout, while the conversation keeps going. • GIFs on the whiteboard: drop an animated GIF onto the room whiteboard, then draw and point over it while you explain a word. • Shared things open in place: photos, Loopis and links in a chat now arrive as one clean card. A Loopi plays inside the conversation, and photos keep their shape and swipe where they are. • Pin a post: keep the post that matters at the top of its board. Also: message search was rebuilt around what it actually searches, partner cards on home search show a bio, clips stored only in iCloud now load in the Loopi picker, and tapping a tab again refreshes the list.

Open chats, rebuilt: 1.0.25 makes it easier to find a room in the language you're practicing — and makes sure you never miss a message. • New open chat: browse rooms by language, filter the list and search by tag.

Also: the nickname length check now matches what you can actually save. Enjoying b3rri? A quick rating helps other language learners find us.

Say it with a GIF: 1.0.24 brings GIF comments to b3rri and makes first conversations with new language partners calmer. • GIF comments: reply to a photo, a Loopi or a board post with a GIF from the same picker you use in chat. One tap and it's posted. • Calmer first messages: someone new gets 5 messages until they reply, and photos and calls unlock only once you've both sent 5. Real conversations with native speakers first, no cold calls. • A home feed for other people: your own posts no longer fill your home feed — it's for what your language partners share. • Live comment counts: the number on a post updates the moment you add or delete a comment, no refresh needed. Also: Timeline videos have been retired, nicknames with emoji or non-Latin letters are set up correctly, and older chat photos load reliably again. Enjoying b3rri?

Only you can see it. • Longer voice messages: practise speaking with native speakers for up to 90 seconds per message, with a countdown before the limit. • Spam-free first messages: someone new gets 3 messages until they reply, and calls unlock once they write back. Real conversations, no cold calls. • Blocking that sticks: a blocked person disappears from your chats, posts, voice rooms, calls and search. • Clearer language setup: choose your native language and the language you're learning without mixing them up, with a suggestion from your nationality. • Smarter notifications: reading an alert in the app clears it from your phone, and photo, GIF and voice alerts say what they are instead of a link. Also: the update prompt appears when you return to the app, photo comments tell you when they can't load, and error messages are easier to read. Enjoying b3rri?

minor bugs fix

A new way to make Timeline videos • Build your route video straight from the location data in your photos — no more exporting a Google Timeline file.

What's New in 1.0.14 Turn your travels into a video Bring your Google Maps Timeline export and b3rri draws your journey as an animated route on the map, ready to post as a Loopi. Pick any stretch of dates, set how long the video runs, and choose the line colour — Rose, Ember, Berry, or Mint. Everything renders on your phone: your location history never leaves the device, only the finished video is uploaded. Every change previews live, so what you approve is exactly what gets posted. Not ready to share yet? Finished videos are kept as drafts you can reopen — or delete — whenever you like. Premium badges on the feed The subscriber badge now shows on feed cards too, alongside profiles, board posts, comments, and follow lists. Images that failed to load now come back A photo, thumbnail, or video poster that failed once used to stay broken until you reinstalled. Failed loads are now cleared, so returning to the screen loads the image properly — across Loopi, chats, notifications, your profile grid, and voice rooms. Also in this release • Double-tapping a Loopi bursts the heart exactly where you tapped. • Book club narration files and leftover scratch files from saving chat images are now cleaned up instead of quietly taking space.

What's New in 1.0.13 Your profile is one timeline now Loopi videos and photo posts share a single newest-first grid instead of living in separate tabs. Tap any post and it opens as a full scrolling feed of that person's posts — in the same order you just saw in the grid. Profile tabs are icons instead of labels. Premium • A yearly plan joins the monthly one, presented as one plan picker instead of two separate paywalls, so you can see what yearly actually saves. • Subscribers now carry a badge beside their name — on profiles, board posts, comments, and follow lists. Choose your photo's shape The post editor has a Ratio picker: Portrait, Landscape, or Square. What you frame in the preview is exactly what gets posted — no more guessing from the first photo. Connect more accounts LINE and other webview-only platforms can now be linked from Settings → Account Link. Faster start Reaching your home feed takes one less network round-trip and a lot less parsing.

• Reply to a reply. Threads on posts and photos keep the @mention for you, and swap it when you change who you're replying to. • Type to find a language instead of scrolling the whole list, and confirm your nationality before it's locked in. • Translate a post from the language its author wrote it in • Long-press to correct a partner's post • Swipe between photos in chat • Search everyone in the share sheet

Reply to anyone in a thread Comments on Loopi and Photo Feed now have a Reply button on every reply. Tapping it @mentions that person for you, so you can answer one person directly instead of the whole thread.

NEW — Corrections in DMs When your language partner writes in the language you speak natively, you can now fix it right there. Long-press their message, suggest a better version, add a short note. The original always stays, so you can compare the two — and a correction never becomes a new message or bumps the chat. NEW — Sign in with Facebook One more way in, alongside Google, Apple, and email. TRANSLATION, YOUR WAY • Chat translation now has its own language setting, separate from the app language • Free accounts get 10 message translations per day. Premium is unlimited and adds AI translation in Book Club. PROFILES • See which country someone is connecting from, right on their profile BOARD PHOTOS THAT KEEP THEIR SHAPE Portrait photos are no longer cropped into landscape strips. Each post now picks a grid that matches the photos in it, so a phone photo still looks like a phone photo.
