Homebound Check-In

Trips Now Have Photos - Add a photo when you check in by tapping the camera icon on the Check In button. Every trip gets its own album, and you can add more photos after you get home. The friends feed has a refreshed, photo-first look with a map of each trip's route, and you pick which photos your friends see. Friends Can Check On You - The people watching your trip can now check on you or send a short message. Reply in one tap with "I'm okay", a quick message you wrote yourself, or a check-in, and it all shows in your trip timeline. Write your own quick messages in Settings > Friends > Quick messages. Find Friends Nearby - On a group trip, Find points an arrow at anyone in your group and shows how far away they are, on iPhone or Apple Watch. You can also set a meetup spot, and everyone gets an arrow to it. Seven New Share Cards - Share a finished trip with seven new designs, from a retro park poster to an embroidered trail patch. Swipe between them before you share. Steadier Live Location - Live location is steadier, shows how recent each position is, and draws your trail on the map. It also stops by itself when the trip ends. SOS Sends Your Location Right Away - SOS now sends your last known location the moment you tap it, along with how old it is. If that location was missing or you've moved since, your contacts get a fresh one. More Improvements - Trips that start close together no longer hide each other on the map. Nearby pins group into one, and trip maps draw your route through each check-in. - Changes you make offline sync more reliably. Anything that can't sync shows up in a new Sync Issues screen where you can try again. - Tap a friend's photo in the feed or comments to open their profile, then tap their photo to see it larger. - Quick Trips use the same activity and contact pickers as the trip planner, plus a new emoji picker. - Activities Discover hides because of the weather now have a Show anyway button. - Your Apple Watch buzzes when a trip starts, and the trip moves up in the Smart Stack. - Overdue and SOS alerts break through Focus, and so do check-in reminders on driving trips. - Larger text sizes, VoiceOver, and Reduce Motion work across more of the app. Bug And Performance Fixes - Exporting your data works again, and a brief network hiccup no longer signs you out. Plus fixes for live location pins, group check-in alerts, multi-day countdowns, the Apple Watch corner complication, and a range of smaller ones. Please report any bugs you find so they can be fixed quickly. Use Settings > Help Make Homebound Better > Report a Bug. - Fixed offline trip bug, UI bugs, and made color changes on trip status changes more reliable.
