Jun 25, 2022

• We made a lot of improvements to how Pincone looks on your mobile phones. The navigation bar and the page title and actions have been merged into one. It now looks a lot cleaner and more content can fit on your screen.
• This doesn't concern people who already use Pincone, but for newcomers we added a nice onboarding tutorial with smooth videos to help you make sense of where things live inside Pincone.
• When you sign up, you'll now need to verify your email address. This was something we wanted to get right out of the gate, but alas, other things got in the way. This should prevent an influx of spam accounts on our platform making it more secure and faster for everyone.
• For people who have a lot of links, items coming through your feeds would sometimes have dozens of labels attached to them. We fixed this so it doesn't overwhelm you anymore.
• When you scrolled your sidebar and then tapped on your user card to get to your settings, it wouldn't scroll you back up. Well, now it does!

Feb 23, 2022

• We completely revamped how 🔍 search looks and behaves! Read more about it on our blog!
• We're constantly improving how we scrape RSS feeds. Our engine received a small, but significant speed overhaul.
• Our toast notifications got a nice, fresh coat of paint. They've also been moved to the bottom of the screen so they don't obscure buttons and content!
• Recently, we shipped a feature where we improved how tweets are scraped. In this release, we improved how we scrape profiles of people on Twitter!
• We updated our Jump keyboard shortcut and added new ones for search and timeline so it's faster to move around your Pincone.
• There were some issues with the width of our main layout on tablets. That's been fixed now and there should now no longer be an ugly gap to the right of your links!

Jan 5, 2022

• We've improved the way we scrape tweets. 🐦 Previously, due to some technical limitations, we couldn't show you details around a tweet you were adding to Pincone. Now, you'll get the exact tweet you're adding, the author and we'll even pull in an image if it's attached to a tweet.
• When ingesting content from feeds, we realized some links weren't being scraped properly and you would see just a URL which wasn't very nice. With our latest batch of improvements, you should now see better content coming through the feeds.

Jan 3, 2022

• We've improved our scraper a bit and it will no longer show you HTML entities like """ instead of actual quotation marks.

• We built our very own autolabeling engine that will prefill labels when you're adding new links.
• We added the ability to create a new category when you're adding a new link.

• We had a tiny little bug with likes that we didn't like, and we fixed it.

Apr 8, 2020

Mar 18, 2020

• Every user now has access to their Personal Pincone. With Personal Pincones, you can now save and organize your private bookmarks. Enjoy all of the Pincone functionality, but none of the collaboration. Sometimes you just need a little bit of space for yourself.

• Added this Changelog page that you're looking at right now. Meta.

Mar 5, 2020

Mar 2, 2020

• Categories are now paginated to improve loading times.
• The "Popular" category served no real, useful purpose. So it's gone now.
• Categories are now ordered the same way across all pages.
• The cards were squeezed together a lot on mobile and tablet sizes, so we gave them some breathing room.
• The menu drawer now actually opens on iPhone devices. Whoops.

Ancient History
