What's New in PONGE
4.6.0
September 7, 2026
Version 4.6.0: Find new meetups and upcoming events on Home. Country and region filters start unselected, and you can narrow the list when you choose. Read notices, schedules, and member lists before joining a meetup. Approved members can leave a greeting in Hellos, with sentence chips to help them start. Read and post Shoutings without location permission. Like a message directly from the Home band, or open it to choose a reaction. Sentence chips help with posts and replies; you edit the text and send it yourself. See your reactions by content type on My Page. Reaction, comment, member, and attendee counts are no longer displayed; view counts remain. Meetup, event, and service details have been reorganized. Profiles show the person's services, events, and meetups within the permitted visibility. Comments now distinguish loading, an empty result, and a failed request. Retry a failed load without reopening the detail. We also fixed list loading, notification navigation, and keyboard overlap. Support messages can include images.
