Ever have that important info get lost in a long thread? An idea for an outing arise while chatting with friends? Or simply a friendly reminder from someone you don’t want to forget? Fret no more! With the latest update you can now create reminders, events, polls, and notes directly from chat.
To try it out, swipe up from the bottom of the chat screen. In today’s release we’re supporting quick actions with the aforementioned reminders, events, polls, and notes, but we’ll be adding more in the future!
We’ve also added the ability to DM your friends on Aspen. While our curated spaces are great for small teams and groups, sometimes you just need to quickly send a message to a single person! Go to their profile, tap Message, and you’re on your way.
We’ve also completely redesigned the sign in experience for new and existing users. There’s new colors, fun animations, and, most importantly, it takes fewer clicks to start chatting with your friends! There’s never been a better time to join Aspen!
