HeyU 3.0 is out now on the App Store, for iPhone, iPad and Mac. It's the biggest update we've ever made: every screen is new, and so is everything underneath.
It's still the same idea. HeyU is for finding friends, community and support, not dates.
What's new
- A new feed. Swipe sideways through someone's photos and what they wrote, then Like, Save or Pass. Scroll past and they come back later.
- Profiles worth reading. Every profile answers a few prompts, and This or that asks you to pick yours before you see theirs.
- In common. What you both like and look for shows on the card, before anyone writes.
- Translate with Google. Read a profile, or a message, in your language with one tap.
- A richer chat. Photos, places, songs and links, reactions, replies, and a chat only when you both said yes.
- Never lose a maybe. Saved Profiles, Profile Likes and Feed History.
- The Verified badge. A quick selfie, checked by a person.
- 23 languages. From Swedish and Spanish to Japanese, Arabic and Thai.
The full list lives in the release notes.
If you used HeyU 2.0
Your profile comes with you: your name, photos and bio are already there. The first time you open 3.0 we'll ask you to finish your profile with a few things 3.0 needs, like what you're looking for and a prompt or two, and to accept the new Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.
If your 2.0 profile had fewer than two photos, you start with a fresh one, signed in with the same Apple or Google account.
Stories from 2.0 are retired.
Thank you
To everyone who used HeyU 2.0 and told us what worked and what didn't: this one's for you.
