Hey homies,

Happy 1st week of August! ⭐ App Tip ⭐ Under Socials > My Upcoming Socials, click Open Chat to open up an event’s group chat! (it will only be accessible via the Chats page again starting next week) We are in the process of moving all chats from a 3P provider to our own in-house chat, so bear with us & continue to let us know if you see any bugs :)

⭐ Increase your chances of getting into events ⭐ Those who have a lot of momos (which you can earn by hosting more events for the community!) will also now have increased chances of getting into events - Hosts will get extra +20 momos for approving you! More perks to come 👀
