Five features nobody else has are being built now. As each one ships it goes on the landing page, where somebody deciding whether to install can see it, rather than into a changelog nobody reads.

Hand a call to another of your devices (flamenet-messenger-ios#74)
Private reactions, to one person inside a group (flamenet-messenger-ios#75)
Reactions during a call (flamenet-messenger-ios#78)
Polls where nobody can tell who voted for what (flamenet-messenger-ios#76)
Off-the-record conversations, never written to disk (flamenet-messenger-ios#77)

Rules for the copy: say what the person gets rather than how it works, and claim only what the build actually does. Nothing goes on the page before the feature ships on both platforms.

Progress, so the page copy can follow what is actually shipped.

Merged to main on Android:

private reactions, addressed to the author alone (!126)
reactions during a call (!127)
the chip label, which now reads "only them" for the sender and "only you" for the author (!128)

In flight on iOS:

group reactions, which the iPhone never had at all and which private reactions need (!200)
private reactions (!201)
reactions during a call, written and awaiting a build

Nothing goes on the landing page until a feature is shipped on both platforms, so none of these are ready for copy yet. The first pair to qualify will be private reactions and call reactions.

Done, checked live in the 2026-10-16 issue cleanup. The landing page lists all five features under "Five new things".
