We have been busy this month! Here is what is new in Smart Barter.
Improved Search Filters
Finding the right trade just got easier. Our updated search now lets you filter by:
- Category (Goods, Equipment, Skills, Experiences)
- Distance (1 mile to nationwide)
- Listing age (newest first, oldest first)
- Trade type (item-for-item, skill-for-skill, mixed)
Faster Messaging
We rebuilt our messaging system from the ground up. You will notice:
- Messages deliver instantly
- Image sharing is 3x faster
- Read receipts show when your message was seen
- Typing indicators let you know when someone is responding
Refreshed Profile Page
Your profile page got a makeover:
- Larger profile photo
- Trade stats front and center
- Easier access to your active listings
- Quick links to your trade history and saved favorites
Bug Fixes
- Fixed an issue where notifications were delayed on Android 14
- Resolved a crash when uploading photos larger than 10MB
- Corrected a display issue with long listing titles on smaller screens
Coming Next Month
We are working on:
- Group trades — three-way and four-way trade matching
- Seasonal collections — curated trade categories for spring
- Community events — local barter meetups organized through the app
