What's New

Latest updates and improvements to Stanza.

  1. v2.87.1 — Correspondence, Marginalia & a journal for Discover

    Replies become letters, readers can leave notes in the margins of a poem, every poetic element and sound explains itself, and Discover reads like a literary journal — plus a settling window, trending sounds/elements, and a round of fixes.

    Our biggest update in a while: a refreshed Share experience with shareable social cards, a customizable profile QR, richer circle moderation, and timestamped audio critiques. Navigation is easier too — quick View profile from the switcher everywhere, a Submission Tracker guide, and hide-on-scroll bars.
