## What is Makanly?

Makanly is the home network for the place you live — your building, your compound, your neighborhood. One app that connects you to the people, homes, and services right around you.

Technology was supposed to bring us closer. Instead, we message strangers across the world every day and don't know our own neighbors. Makanly is technology in reverse — it reconnects you to your real community, the people who actually share your street, your building, your gate.

A FEED THAT'S ACTUALLY LOCAL
Posts, photos, reels, and announcements from inside your own place. No noise from across the city — just the people and updates that matter where you live.

FIND TRUSTED LOCAL SERVICES
Plumbers, tutors, cleaners, drivers, vets, and more — discovered through reviews from your own neighbors. Tap to chat directly. No more digging through endless WhatsApp groups.

REAL HOMES, REAL LISTINGS
Browse apartments and villas for sale or rent — filtered by location, unit type, view, and price. Every listing tied to a real place and a verified person.

KNOW YOUR NEIGHBORS
Real profiles, real identities. Follow neighbors, send messages, make voice and video calls, and finally put names to the faces around you.

VERIFIED & TRUSTED
Every account is identity-verified. Verified badges for residents, brokers, and service providers mean you always know who you're dealing with.

THE OLD NEW WAY OF MEETING PEOPLE
Before social media, you met people by actually being near them. Makanly brings that back — using technology to pull you closer to your real community instead of further from it.

Download Makanly and reconnect with the place you live.

### 1.1.1 — 2026-05-29

Voice messages:
• Audio keeps playing when new messages arrive or you send a reply — no more interruptions mid-playback

• Play/pause button always shows the correct state

Other improvements:
• Restored the original Makanly font across chat and feed for better readability
• Date dividers between message groups now show the actual day instead of an error

Chat improvements:
• Voice messages keep playing when new messages arrive or you send a reply — no more interruptions mid-playback
• Play/pause button now always shows the correct state
• Fixed missing dates between message groups
• Chat text size and weight tuned for easier reading

### 1.0.9 — 2026-05-26

• Video player — refreshed style with a hairline
  progress bar and cleaner overlays.
• Posts — link previews now appear in the composer and on rendered
  posts (title, description, and image from the linked page).
• Group chats layout: avatar beside the bubble
  with the sender name inside the bubble.
• Chat history — messages load in the correct order on cold start
  (fixes the duplicate / out-of-order issue).
• External links — clearer warning sheet with proper Arabic copy.
• Stability, layout, and translation fixes throughout.

### 1.0.8 — 2026-05-25

Links inside posts and comments are now tappable, with a safety check showing the real destination before opening. @mentions and #tags color inline — multi-word names like "Maged Raslan" now highlight in full.

Comments got a two-row composer with a built-in emoji picker and cleaner spacing.

Tapping a notification for a comment, like, share, or new follower now opens the right post or profile instead of dropping you on the wall. And cold-starting the chat from a notification finally shows the new message right away — no more back-out-and-retry.
