## Version history (last 4 releases)

### 1.1.0 — 2026-05-27

• Crush Shots — send an anonymous, taste-anchored note by email. Reveals only after a real taste
  signal, or string the recipient along.
  • Compass — your 3×3 taste chart on Profile, sharable as a 3-card trilogy.
  • Taste model — matching now reads your ranks, battles, and hot takes. 
  • By Taste sort — Watchlist, Log, and Events sort by fit.
  • Endless search — Palit-popular first, then everything else.
  • Notifications — bell in the feed, full hub view.
  • Film Clubs — in-app invites with accept / decline.
  • @-mentions in comments.
  • Discover People shows % match on every row.
  • Director-anchored rarity, profile refresh, Letterboxd import polish.

### 1.0.3 — 2026-05-11

• Endless feed. The home feed now mixes voices instead of letting the most active posters take over — every author gets a turn before you see anyone twice. 
  
  • "Popular this week" reflects Palit. The onboarding "Popular" grid is now built from what Palit users are actually adding to their rankings, with global trending as a backstop.
  
  • Shorter onboarding. Tiers are assigned as you add a film, so the separate "sort your favorites" step is gone. Build your taste profile in fewer taps.
  
  • Re-import from Letterboxd anytime. Settings → Import from Letterboxd now works after onboarding, not just during it.
  
  • Tier a whole franchise in one go. Search results stay put after you add a film, so you can rip through a series without re-searching. 
  
  • Cleaner feed filters. The filter row is now a single menu instead of a horizontal scroll.
  
  • Faster fixes. Future updates can ship in-app, so you'll get bug fixes without waiting on the App Store.

  • Push notifications. Don't miss a special Q&A in NYC again!
