EasySocial Mobile 5.1 Released
Subcategories
Our team added subcategories support in this release and your users will now be able to access subcategories in Events, Marketplaces, Groups and Pages.
Redesigned Videos Layout
The videos section also received a makeover and it will now include a fluid view instead of multi-column views. This will provide your users with a whole new scrolling experience.
Polls
In this release, we have also added polls support on the native app. Users on the app would be able to start creating new polls and voting them too!
Attachments on Comments
We have also added attachments to comments and your users would be able to pick images to include in their comments
Admob Enhancements
In previous releases, advertisements from Admob only appeared on the dashboard. With this release, advertisements can now be configured to be placed at the following locations:
- Groups
- Pages
- Videos
- Audios
- Events
They can be configured in Titan and you can choose to toggle the visibility of the ads.
