Hello 7 Cups App Users!

This weekend we are going to launch a fancy new feature! But, this feature is still in beta & we need your help to test it. It will be available ONLY on the app! Everyone is welcome to give it a whirl. Here is how it will work!

What will this feature do?

This feature will allow you navigate between varying conversations and chatrooms much faster. It will give you the ability to easily have more than one conversation going at once. (I have tested it, it is very slick).

At the top of the app, you see a bar with up to 5 of your most recent conversations. The conversations will be indicated with your user picture or the chatroom initials. Only 5 will be listed at one time. Once you hit 6, the 6th will drop back to your regular conversation list.

You will be alerted on this top bar when one of your chats has a new message for you to view. Screenshot here!

You will be able to click through to these conversations very easily from this top bar.

(Screen shots coming soon)

How can I turn it on?

In your account settings, you will need to turn this feature on. If you do not turn it on, you will not be able to participate. If you don't like it, you can turn it off at any time.

Should I expect bugs?

Yup, this is brand new!

Where can I report bugs? And give feedback?

Great, we'd love for you to tell us what is working & not working, so we can continue to get it right. Please use this form to file bug reports specifically related to this feature. Remember, if you don't love yet, you can turn it off and go right back to the original app!

Thank you everyone who willing to dive in and give this new feature a try! It should greatly enhance the quality of your chat experience, but we need your help in testing it! All are welcome! I will post in this forum thread when it is live & you can start testing! Please subscribe to the thread for updates!

An update on the app?! Yaayy! Can't wait to be able to test it! Should we update our app through the app store before we could try this fancy new feature?
