3Your month with Plus
A short recap in your Inbox of the stories you've been living.
Improvements
- Faster replies. Replies start appearing on screen sooner.
- Steadier swiping. Reply versions change only when you swipe sideways on purpose, so scrolling never flips one by accident.
- A smoother Home. The feed stays put while more characters load.
- Quicker search. Results start loading from your first keystroke, with no repeats.
- Clearer moderation. If we act on a character, its creator sees why and can fix it and appeal. If you report something, you'll hear what happened in My Reports.
- Prices from Google Play. Plus plans show your local price, and you're told when a payment is still pending.
Fixes
- The typing dots no longer stay on screen after a reply arrives, or after you delete or rewind one.
- Phones that are low on storage now get a clear "free up space" message instead of a crash.
- Fixed several crashes.
- The text cursor sits in the middle of the line as you type.
- You can no longer tap Follow on your own profile.
