flockx: Live Activities Nearby

June 1, 2024

After feedback, we’ve upgraded our app’s interface and capabilities. Responding to requests for a community pulse indicator, we created Social GPS to help you locate active social scenes. Our map shows the Community Pulse, indicating where like-minded individuals gather, from popular spots to events. Each Flock has its own map with favorite places and activities.

Following some feedback, we have removed the interactive map. Now when you open the app, the landing page will provide you with active communities, trending spots and a list of activities to explore.

In response to the overwhelming excitement and activity within our ecosystem, we've made the decision to temporarily reel back the ability for users to post activities. This move aims to maintain the high quality and relevance of events. We are also limiting access to existing users and those that receive invites to the specific communities in Grand Rapids for now. Furthermore, we've decided to focus heavily on a few key communities that resonate deeply with our users. The art, live music, cycling, and beer communities are at the forefront of our attention. We believe these updates will elevate your flockx experience to new heights. Thank you for being part of this journey with us.

We’re thrilled to introduce the latest updates to the flockx app that bring a fresh and inviting look to your community-driven experience. Our team has been hard at work revamping the interface, enhancing your flockx journey even more. We have moved from dark to a more inviting light theme. Furthermore, you will find updated activity cards featuring photographic imagery representative of the community to which an activity belongs. Lastly, we have refactored the discovery feed you see when opening the app into three distinct sections: Current and Upcoming Activities, Trending Communities, and Discover Spots.

The latest release helps mitigate uncertainty around validity of activities by giving users the ability to see the number of locals who have verified an activity’s occurrence, and the ability to verify activities within a 20 mile radius. Another main focus has been adding the ability to discover your favorite businesses and points of interest. Improvements have been made to help users find out which communities are hanging out at these locations and also any activities taking place (current, upcoming and past activities). Lastly, the content on the activity card has been refactored to be more concise, informative and visually appealing. With the introduction of all this data, we upgraded the business info page into a home for users to view all activities and communities associated with that location.

To continue serving you as the go-to app for finding real-time activities within your community, we have improved the ease in which you can find activities, both by relevance as well as by community. Simply toggle between “current activities” and “communities” on the home screen. Additionally, if you haven’t joined any communities yet, you can now join multiple communities at the same time to springboard your profile into the flockx universe. Make sure to enable notifications so you never miss out.

Our activity flow has been improved and simplified, making it easier than ever for you to post community activities on flockx. You can now add an optional description before posting an activity which will “boost” the visibility of your post in other users’ feeds. Additionally, an onboarding flow has been added to help showcase the app’s functionality. Remember to log in to be able to join communities and unlock custom stickers.
