 🚨IMPORTANT UPDATE - GLOBAL CHAT 🚨

The Fedi team just informed us about upcoming improvements to the app. The most significant changes are related to the chat functionality. 

👉Starting this Wednesday, May 29th, you will be able to use a single account for all your chats across all federations, without needing to enter each federation separately to check your chats.

Please ensure that your app is updated. If the app doesn't update automatically, make sure to update it from your app store.

When you update, the app will ask you for a username. This username will be the same for all federations you join from now on. You will have a display name that can be changed, but you won't be able to change the associated number that comes after your username followed by “#” (eg satoshi #87b).

As you create a new username, all of your current chats will be available in read-only mode. You will need to join and create your groups and DMs again.

🤑 Your wallet remains unchanged. But use this opportunity to do your social and personal backups.

🆘 Remember this is a Bravo version. This means you might experience issues. If you find any bugs or have suggestions for the Fedi team, please report them to Support located in the home of the app.

We are excited about all the improvements in the app! 🤩 If you want to learn more about them, please click the link below
