Time Travel. • A new tile on the home screen with two maps on a slider. Drag the year and watch the island change from 1480 to today: the 78 pueblos appear the year each was founded and split off from the towns they were carved from, forts and lighthouses and dams rise from scaffold to finished, the industries of each era arrive in their regions, the railroad and the highways draw themselves in, hurricanes cross in their year, and the flags change. Tap a town or a landmark for its story. • Where We Went: the diaspora from 1898 to today. Every state and country with a Puerto Rican community, shaded and numbered year by year, with the flows from the island animated at the pace people actually moved. From the 1900 Hawaii expeditions to María. • Visit a Pueblo: all 78 municipios in one list under Things to Do, each opening its own page — flag, founding year, where the name came from, its fiestas and what to do there. • The Vacation Planner opens on a new Places tab that shows how a trip gets filled: browse Things to Do, tap the heart to save a place, then give it a day on your calendar.
