What’s new

What's new: • Rate a swimming spot with stars after checking in or sharing a visit • Real translation for visit posts, comments and replies — the button only appears when the text is actually in another language • "Follow back" button right in your followers list • See when other swimmers are online (and hide your own status if you like) • The app icon now shows your unread notification count, with a new notification sound Improvements: • Much smoother photo viewer — easier to pull up comments, faster response when tapping a photo, and double-tap zoom works again • Less cropping on photos on the swimming spot page • Shows the real city for foreign swimming spots instead of a country code • Notifications now take you to the right place in the app when someone likes or comments Bug fixes: • Achievements like Ice bear and Summer swimmer weren't always tappable • Various minor layout fixes in profile and notification settings • Hardcoded text in some dialogs is now translated
