• We have quite a few background improvements in this update to provide better performance and error handling related to third party dependencies. • We already don't track you in relation to this app, but we have improved the randomness around the ID values used to deliver chat messages to improve the privacy and security of our system overall. • There are also improvements around logging to reduce logs on your device and limit logging to our server. (Logging to our server is focused around advertisement display and performance, and basic app usage.)

We fixed some bugs in the video player to make sure you can play a series of videos again if you want to. We also added a chat feature to let you discuss what you find with other users. Our goal with the chat is to connect you with other users who are discovering historical content that you may not have discovered yet. You can block or report disrespectful users by swiping left on their messages.

Routine dependency update to prepare for future changes. If there are places where you would like to see content, please let us know. The world is a big place and as we add content we want to make sure we add content where you are if possible.

We are hiding the annotation tool until there is a demand for it on the iOS app. To continue to annotate and upload your films you will need to download our MacOS application which has many more features available for annotating films. We have updated the color of our film marker for the maps. Green is not the best color choice as the land area displayed on the map is also a shade of green. Films are now marked on the map with red pins.
