LifeThreads Memoir

WHAT'S NEW IN THIS BUILD This release adds private direct messaging between users, user handles, and the ability to tag people in a memory. WHO CAN MESSAGE WHOM Messaging is not open to the public. A user can only start or continue a conversation with someone who is a member of one of their private circles, and only if neither person has blocked the other. This is enforced on the server for every message send, not in the app UI — if two people stop sharing a circle, an existing conversation stops accepting messages. A handle is only an identifier, never a permission. Knowing someone's @handle grants no ability to message or view them. SAFETY AND MODERATION CONTROLS (all in-app) • Report — available on memories, comments and user profiles. • Block — blocking is mutual and enforced server-side; it stops direct messages in both directions. • Moderation queue — reported content goes to an admin review queue. • Users can delete their own account and all their content from Settings, including their uploaded photos. TAGGING DOES NOT EXPOSE PRIVATE CONTENT Tagging someone in a memory does not grant them access to it. A tag notification is only sent if that person could already view the memory, so tagging cannot be used to reveal a private memory's existence or title. DEMO ACCOUNT Email: appreview@lifethreads.dev Password: LifeThreads-Review-2026! NOTE FOR TESTING DIRECT MESSAGES: because messaging requires a shared circle, the demo account has been placed in a circle with a second test account so a conversation is already visible under Messages. To test sending, open Messages and reply in the existing thread. All accounts are approved and onboarded, so sign-in leads straight into the app.
