New - Event chat now follows the newest messages, so a busy crawl chat keeps updating instead of going quiet. - The wave cards in your Waves tab show photos of the members in the group waving at you. - A weak-signal cold launch opens the app instead of hanging, falling back to your saved profile. - Signing back in takes you straight to your account, never back through setup. - If one tab hiccups it reloads on its own, instead of the whole app showing a stack trace. - Notification setup is steadier: your device re-registers every time you sign in. - Group names are unique to each event, so two groups on the same crawl can't share a name, and offensive names are blocked. - Success screen: your vibe avatar, clearer name cards, and the "You" label lands on the right person. - Waves respect a group's settings, so you only reach groups open to hearing from you. - Fixed: the spotlight pin in Pulse now wraps in full instead of clipping. Also - Costume contests: enter a photo, vote, see the winner - Going solo? Your own card shows who else is going - Events have their own screen; start a group or go solo - Discover: events near you, by when they happen - Everyone 18+. Bar crawls stay 21+
Wave shows you where the city is alive — and helps your circle connect with other circles out doing the same thing. Whether you're planning a brunch, a bar crawl, a festival day, or a spontaneous meetup, Wave gives you real-time visibility into where the energy is happening right now. WHAT WAVE DOES PULSE — See the city live Live crowd data from 250+ venues across Atlanta, updated in real time. Know which spots are busy, which are warming up, and which neighborhoods are buzzing. No more guessing where to go. DISCOVER — Group-to-group connection Your friend group finds other groups out doing the same thing. Connection comes first. Whether you're at a bar, a brunch, a day party, or a festival, find groups on your wavelength and build real rapport. WAVES AND CHATS — Start the connection Wave at a group you want to connect with. If they wave back, you're matched and can chat. Where it goes from there is up to you — some chats stay conversations, some become hangouts, some turn into real friendships. No swiping, no pressure. SCENE — Moments from the city Share photos from what's happening around you. Your Moments show up in the Scene tab, where people across the city can see what's going on in real time. BUILT FOR REAL LIFE - Verified profiles: every user confirms their identity with phone verification and a selfie check, so you're always meeting real people. - 21+ only: Wave is built for adults, not teens. - Group-first: Wave is about your circle connecting with other circles, not one-on-one dating. - Privacy-focused: Wave never shares your exact location with anyone. You decide if and when to disclose where you are during a chat.
