Oh, snap! Our Android app just got a whole big extra serving of beautiful today, so if you don’t already have it, you should get it, here.
Want to know what’s new? Check it out:
A modern, elegant new post feed
Our trusty old post feed has served us well, but it was about time for a little spring cleaning. With this release, we’ve given each post a little more room to breathe with a new design that simplifies the layout while emphasizing what is most important: your accomplishments and daily updates! Along with some snazzy little animations and slick icons, we’ve also introduced a new floating Post button (affectionately known to us as the Floating Action Button, or FAB) that pops up at the bottom of your screen for easy access and gets out of your way when you just want to browse.
A new day, a new challenge (design)
To accompany our revamped post feed, we’ve also created some gorgeous new designs for our challenge cards. Whenever your organization or team is running an challenge, you’ll see challenge cards at the top of your feed that now feature a rich, colorful layout to help brighten your day and inspire you to get going. We’ve also included some new iconography to help you understand the goal of each challenge: a trophy icon means it’s a competition where you and your team compete to win, while a star icon means we aren’t keeping score... so just want you to jump in, see how other teammates are doing, and try taking the challenge on, yourself! Along with updated challenge cards, we’ve also refreshed the design of all related elements, including challenge posts, leaderboards, and more.
Your profile, reimagined
Perhaps the biggest improvement in this update is the brand new design of your profile. In addition to a clean, elegant new look, we now dynamically create a color scheme for your profile based on the richest colors in your cover photo. Just upload your picture and Spire will magically create a look that is uniquely your own. So give it a try! Experiment with some of your favorite photos and help us create an awesome profile just for you. (We’ve also given the same treatment to each team profile—go check out your favorite team to see the new look!)
Beautiful, inside and out
In addition to our top highlights, we’ve also invested a little TLC to bring design updates to our more utilitarian features. You’ll notice that settings, profile edit screens, and other little areas of the app have now been beautified and given the love they deserve.
Impressive, right? We’d love to know what you think, so feel free to shoot us an email at [email protected], or just tell us, here: What do you think of the new update?
