- we hope you're all doing well and feeling good. unfortunately, we have some news to share with you. In just one month, we'll be officially closing down our service. we know this might be a bummer, but we wanted to let you know that you can download your posts as audio files if you want to keep them. we've had so much blast with you all but its time for us to move on. If you have any questions, feel free hit us up at [email protected]. thanks again for building it together so far.

- we’ve added the ability to add a cover image to your new posts! we know that you might sometimes want to add a cover image to a new post, and we’re here for you. you can now add cover images to your posts! it’s as simple as clicking the plus button next to your profile image when you’re recording and picking an image from your library! if you’re posting about a specific topic, adding a relevant cover image will help you have better presentation for your posts. if not, no worries—it’s just an option.

- now, you can share your profile link to make easier to connect with people. just click the “share” button in the top-right corner of your profile page and you’ll be able to share your profile. that way, if someone is trying to find out more about you, just drop the link! we think this will be especially useful when you join a new discord server where you have to do an introduction—simply drop the link instead of typing a paragraph! this is just one more way we’re making it easier for people to connect with each other and make meaningful connections.

- we wanted to give you a heads-up about a new update we’re rolling out. we’ve updated our content feed logic on the first tab to increase community engagement and make sure you’re getting the most relevant content! Now, when you open up the app, you’ll see a curated list of posts from people you follow, as well as posts that may be relevant to you based on your interest and interaction. We want you to know that we’re always working hard to improve the experience on voco, so if you have any feedback or concerns about how this new update is working, please let us know!

Thank you as always for building it together!

- we're finally rolling out DMs!
if you've ever had a question about someone's story, or wanted to share your thoughts on it privately, now you can. we're rolling out a new feature that will allow you to send messages directly to voco creators. you can do this in two ways: either by tapping on direct messaging button on profile page, or by typing the top right of the activity tap!
we'd love to hear what you think!

- we’ve got a new feature for you that we’re super excited about: piggyback and blend! piggyback is a way for you to reference other users’ soundtrack when you reply or make a series. just pick the post you want to piggyback on, and tap the share button next to comments and then tap “piggyback”. we’ll automatically hook up their reference soundtrack so you can quickly reply to them or make series!
- blend is a way to mix the soundtrack of another user’s post. this is a great way to make your post more interesting and engaging—it works similar to the piggyback but we will automatically load up their soundtrack you want to mix, then turn it into a new blended post! this will help keep the soundtracks fresh and interesting, and give you even more ways to express yourself! we’d love to see what you come up with!

- notification settings- we’re excited to announce that we’re rolling out a new feature that allows you to customize notifications based on posts and interactions such as tags, likes, comments, mentions, or followers. now you can get notifications only when your posts are liked or commented on, or when someone mentions you. —just go into your account settings and select the “notifications” tab. we hope this helps you stay more tuned and organized in your daily life!
