NewForm: Recovery & Wellbeing 17+

First things first: The Phoenix app is now NewForm. This release takes the cake for our biggest
upgrade yet, bringing a refreshed design, improved navigation, and expanded features. But don’t
worry, at our heart we’re still the app you know and love.

New Name & Branding
• In case you missed it, the app is now NewForm. We’ve got a new hairdo (redesigned app
icon) and a whole new wardrobe (more cohesive experience with updated animations,
icons, fonts, and imagery). You know, just a little head-to-toe makeover that’ll make your
in-app experience more engaging. What we do we do for you.

Light & Dark Mode
• Did you know that it’s better for your eyes to use dark mode when it's dark out? Did you
notice that wasn’t something The Phoenix App supported before? Were you waiting for us to
finally integrate both light and dark mode? Can we chill with the rhetorical questions now?

Improved Navigation
• While we can’t help you find the remote in your couch, we can make it easier to find the
events and communities you’re looking for. So, we cleaned up the bottom navigation to
streamline your experience.
• We also put chat in the corner—the top right corner to be exact, which will make for a much
more intuitive flow. It just made more sense there.

Updated Feature Names
• Let’s give it up for Experiences and Communities, the features formerly known as Events
and Spaces. Same great functionality, now with names that better fit the act.

Enhanced Experience Discovery
• You know that thing where you’re trying to find a really specific kind of event, and you don’t
really want to see other kinds of events because they’re not what you’re looking for and they
just sort of make it harder to find the one that you are looking for? Well, that’s called a filter,
and we’ve added a bunch of them to the Experiences landing page now.
• Long distance is hard. So, we’ve built a new radius toggle (1-100 miles) to help you find a
meaningful, fulfilling experience closer to home.

Cohesive Partner Presence
• Every organization now has a home base in Communities—an organization overview screen
where all their Spaces and Experiences live neatly under one roof. No more scattered links
or hunting around; everything is right where it belongs.
• We were going to make a pun on Moments here, but we decided it was far too important to
make it clear that every organization on the app can post to Moments now.

Easy Sharing
• Sure, your toothbrush isn’t meant to be shared. But Events, Organizations and Spaces are,
so we added some easy buttons and tools to help you get your friends involved.
