INKORA

Development updates

What's new in Inkora

Everything we've built and changed, grouped by the part of Inkora it belongs to. Dates before 7 October are approximate.

Community

Feed, stories, discussions, groups and challenges.

  1. New

    Read stories chapter by chapter

    Every shared story has a page with a Start reading button, a reading-time estimate and a chapter list, and the same page-turning view as the preview.

    • Readers choose a light, sepia or dark page, a serif or sans font and the text size.
    • It reopens where the reader stopped, and the end of a chapter moves on to the next.
    • Chapters you've only planned, or that are still empty, are never shown.
  2. Improved

    A fresh look for Community

    Community pages share one look now, from the feed to groups, challenges and discussions.

    • A new tab bar with icons; on a phone it scrolls sideways.
    • Page headers with a clearer title and divider.
    • Posts have proper like, comment, save and share buttons, and the like and save buttons fill in when active.
    • Cards for stories, groups, challenges, writers and discussions look like one family and lift when you hover.
    • Icons replace emoji, and empty pages show a round icon badge.
