THE GOOD, THE BAD & THE IRREVERENT 🦄
NOV 2023
Every now and then, we pause building new features and focus on something we call a small batch update – a mix of smaller performance tweaks, minor adjustments and easy adds.We believe building a great product is like tending to a garden. You need to mindfully and intentionally add new elements, continuously improve existing ones, and prune things that aren't working; all while ensuring each individual change makes the whole better.Here's what's new:
1
Liking supersonic but wish it had a few critical features? Or have ideas you think would be cool? Let us know using the new feedback flow in your Settings.
2
Improved: map loading & performance
Fixed: slight jank in the loading screen animation
Fixed: app gets stuck when launched in the background
Fixed: streaks don't reset correctly in a few edge cases
Fixed: infrastructure logging pipeline for lambda functions
