Based on your feedback and requests, the Flare team has been hard at work to bring new and improved features to our platform. Check out everything that we’ve added this summer to make Flare the best app for group messaging and group communications!
Here’s what’s new in Flare 4.0 and 4.1:
Introducing FlareCam
Inspired by our love for using disposable film cameras to capture candid moments with friends, we created FlareCam to enrich the event experience. FlareCam is like a disposable camera without the costs or limitations. When enabled, guests can take disposable-like film-quality photos directly in-app that are only revealed when the host releases them for an authentic and nostalgic experience.
Improved Customizability for Chats
You can now create sub chats within your group. These chats do not have to include everyone and can be optional for those who want to join them. (Ex. Majors, Class, Buy and Sell, etc.)
You can now lock and hide custom chats from members who are not a part of it — this is great for board chats.
It is now easier to invite and add your group connections to chats.
Copy and paste images in chats.
Export Poll Results.
Underlined links in chats
