Release notes

• More private distances. You'll now see ranges like "Under 2 km" or "2 to 5 km" instead of exact distances. Your exact location and address aren't shared with other families.
• More reasons to verify your email. Until you verify, you'll see first names and "Nearby" instead of full profiles. Once verified, you can see photos and details.
• A gentler activity indicator. "Recently active" shows which families have used Parentsi in the last week. "Online now" is only visible to your connections.
• More control over location changes. You can update your location periodically, and we'll tell you when you can change it again.
• Better photo handling. Photos are checked when uploaded to ensure they belong to your profile's stored images.
• Other improvements. Clearer messages when searching too frequently, more thorough account deletion, refreshed password reset emails, and reliability improvements.

Parentsi is about meeting families, not tracking where they are or when they're online. These changes help protect personal information while keeping it easy to discover families nearby.

Update Parentsi through Google Play. If you haven't already, verify your email to see full family profiles.
