What’s new
Version 2026.3.8 · Updated September 21, 2026
This one is mostly about signing in. - Fixed the problems that stopped Facebook sign-in from completing, including for people who decline app tracking. - Signing in with X or Snapchat can now use the browser session you already have, so you may not need to type your password again. - When a sign-in does not work, the app now tells you what went wrong instead of quietly doing nothing. - "Do this later" on the identity check during setup takes you back to browsing instead of leaving you stuck on that step. - Finishing identity verification is recorded properly. Previously the app stopped waiting before the result came back, so people who completed it were still shown as unverified. - Chat and live updates recover more reliably after your connection drops or the app returns to the foreground. - Creating an excursion no longer creates two if you tap the button twice.
