## What is Humbly FM?

Humbly is a new podcast app that helps causes like charities and nonprofits all around the globe raise money, simply by using it.

We'll start by asking you to select some causes you'd like to guide money towards. Later, you'll hear a short ad or two when you tap play on an episode. One of Humbly's advertising partners paid for you to hear and experience that ad, so that money goes to the causes you've selected, without costing you a dime.

### 5/5 — Great place to stay in “the Know”

*2021-03-09*

Applied knowledge is power, there’s a wealth of knowledge here. I just have to step up and apply it more often 😅😅😅

### 5/5 — I’ll never go back to my old player

*2020-10-09*

This is the most beautiful interface, it’s intuitive, it’s clean. I love the easy mode for when I’m driving and the social element of the feed is great too. I’m happy they added the ability to make activity private or displayed to friends. You’ll delete all your other podcast players once you get humbly - the charity part is amazing too but I love it just for the app itself. Bravo!

## Version history (last 4 releases)

### 1.0.7 — 2021-01-20

New year, new Humbly version ha! Lots of goodies in this one...
- The main thing you'll notice is that we're treating charities and nonprofit selection differently now. We'll ask you to choose a single cause now (as opposed to groups like before). This means you can get specific with the cause you'd like to support!
- A bunch of bug fixes, and a crash fix.
- And a few nice performance optimizations.

### 1.0.6 — 2020-10-28

Hey! Hope you're enjoying Humbly. Have you left a review yet??

What's changed.
- We added a new "Suggested" list of podcasts in the "Discover" section. It'll be changing from time to time.
- Got a few small bug fixes in. 
- Some performance fixes.

Oh and VOTE!!!

### 1.0.1 — 2020-09-23

Oh boy, turns out a few things needed some attention:
- Causes selection during sign-up wasn't working for iOS 14. That's bad. So we fixed that.
- Some people weren't able to see the Terms of Service legal doc during sign up. That's bad. So we fixed that, too.
- A few UI things looked odd. Sorta bad. Fixed.

### 1.0 — 2020-09-21

No release notes.
