HOME opens on your yards

When you open CommonYard, HOME now starts with your yards, side by side on a plain page. The busier a yard is today, the bigger it is.

Your yards, one shape each

• Tap a yard to go into it. Its posts come up, newest first.
• Each yard shows its name, how many are here now (by the green dot) and how many members it has. A + and a number beside a yard is what your posts there gained.
• In more yards than fit? The last shape says + and a number. Tap it for all your yards.
• Explore is the way to find a yard to join, and Start a yard (or New yard, when it is small) the way to make one.

What happened to your things

Along the top, beside your picture, is a row of small cards, like Your poll got busy: new votes or replies on something of yours, a yard you joined this week. Tap one to go to it. When nothing has happened yet, it says Nothing new on your posts yet.

Swipe up for your feed

• Swipe up and the yards fold into a row of small tiles under the top bar. The posts come up under them.
• The first tile is CommonYard, the whole Yard. Tap a tile to change yard. You can also swipe sideways on the posts.
• Under the tiles, a line says which yard you are reading and what is on there. Tap the small arrow beside it to go Back to all your yards. A yard you run has its gear there too, for Manage yard.
• At the end of a yard’s posts, NEXT YARD takes you on to the next one.
• Your next move and Happening now are still there, at the top of the posts.
