4.1 Change Log
Submit a meet got AI — paste an Instagram flyer and we read it, plus submission status, cross-device sync, a real web footer, and legal pages that remember their own history.
@alex.30mm4.0 Change Log
Detroit Grand Prix is in the building, the map finally got the budget it deserved, real light/dark mode (with an OLED flex), leave pings that use actual drive time, pages that stop pretending loading is a personality trait, lock screen juice, and a megaphone for when we inevitably deploy at the wrong time.

@alex.30mm3.1 Change Log
3.1 adds public meet submissions, a full moderation queue for staff, native status pushes for submitters, and a cleanup pass on submit/menu/admin UX for mobile.
