Pantoh Commons connects people to life-saving community resources and cultural community events. Whether you need a food pantry this week or want to find the cultural potluck this Saturday, Pantoh Commons is built around one principle: we connect you to anything you need to find belonging. Anyone is welcome. WHAT YOU CAN FIND • Food access — pantries, community fridges, SNAP retailers, free meals, WIC • Shelter — emergency, transitional, cooling and warming centers • Health — free clinics, vaccines, mental health services • Legal aid — immigration, housing, eviction defense • Cultural events — potlucks, community festivals, mutual aid gatherings, language circles OPEN DOOR — NO ACCOUNT REQUIRED - Tap "Open Door Mode" and the entire resource directory opens to you. No sign-in, no email, no tracking, no profile. Pantoh Commons does not collect personal information from Open Door visitors. Period. COMPASS — YOUR GUIDE - Compass shows verified resources on a map and a list, filtered by what matters to you. Tap any resource for hours, contact info, and what to expect. Resources marked sensitive — like domestic violence shelters or reproductive health — never share their address in notifications and never appear in cross-app suggestions. COMMUNITY BULLETIN - Verified partner organizations post announcements, alerts, volunteer requests, and fundraisers. Follow the orgs you care about and get the updates that matter — no algorithmic feed, no ads. CULTURAL EVENTS - RSVP to community gatherings, share what you're bringing to a potluck, and discover the cooking circles, language groups, and celebrations happening near you. ## Version history (last 3 releases) ### 1.0.3 — 2026-06-02 - Volunteer shifts: Pantoh Commons users can now see available volunteer shifts in app and sign up to become a volunteer. - Universal links (from email): Pantoh Commons users can launch Pantoh Commons directly from emails. Fixes - App-icon red badge clears after opening the inbox / mark-all-read. - Onboarding step text is not italic. - Community fridge "Claim this fridge" CTA works. ### 1.0.2 — 2026-04-30 What's new in 1.0.2: NEW • Send Feedback — share a bug, an idea, or a note from anywhere in the app. Available in Profile, on every resource page, and in Open Door mode. • A friendly 3-screen intro shows what Pantoh Commons can do before you sign in. • Pantoh AI — our community guide has a new name to reflect its broader role across Pantoh. IMPROVED • Resources tab redesigned — organizations now load in pages with distance shown in miles. New search screen makes it easier to find a specific org. • Distance and radius preferences stay consistent across Daily Intent, Profile, and Compass. • Spanish translations expanded across Daily Intent, Compass, Resources, Inbox, Volunteers, Profile, Share, and Open Door surfaces. • Compass map now centers on the ZIP you enter — even when no resources are nearby, you'll still see your area instead of a wider view. PRIVACY • Open Door mode never uses your GPS location for Compass — only the ZIP you provide. Your privacy is enforced at every step. FIXES • Daily Intent no longer freezes on first sign-in. • Layout is portrait-only on iPhone for a smoother experience. • Privacy Policy and Terms of Service links now open the latest published versions at commons.pantoh.app. • Improvements to Instagram Story sharing. Pantoh Commons is built for the people we serve, on their terms.
