Hi, Here's Connect app emoji ☺️

May 11, 2023 - version 0.3.5- The contacts screen has been redesigned.

Also, the loading speed of this screen has been increased many times.

- Logic of balances has now been added to deals.
When fixing a deal, balances between users are automatically changed now. In other words to close the deal each user should transfer his part of the deal and change the balance, returning it to its original state. The automatic deal closing on balances movement will be added in future versions. Now it is necessary to change balances and deal statuses manually to close the deal. When cancelling a deal, balances return to their original state automatically. Message with the current balances state is sent in the deal chat immediately after a deal creation, as well as after each balances change.

Now any user can add a contact. And even those who were authorized without an invitation in the application. Also, it is possible to choose in advance the language for the future user on the stage of invitation generation.

- Now second-level providers, and further, will no longer automatically resell all possible offers of the higher-level provider by default. They need to select from the list what they want to resell and what they do not.

Currently there are 2 rules for broadcasting offers down the chain:

1. Broadcasting priority is given to the offer added later in time. That is, if there was a broadcast from the upper provider and we added our offer - our offer will be broadcasted. If our offer was already set and a new broadcast from another provider appears, the broadcast from the new provider will be broadcasted further down the chain.
