  • Feature image for Public notes

    Your notes can be published to the web, perfect for sharing big ideas, announcements, and documentation with anyone — including people outside your organization.

    Public notes have a separate URL for more control over sharing, and all comments are hidden to keep your team’s internal collaboration private and secure.

    Public notes also track views from your team members and non-team members alike, so it’s easy to see how many people your writing has reached.

  • Feature image for Spaces rework

    We’ve reworked Spaces to make it easier to follow the most relevant teams, projects, and topics across your organization.

    Joined spaces appear in the sidebar

    A new Spaces section in the sidebar shows all the spaces you’ve joined. When a space has new posts, it will be marked bold, making it easy to scan for unread activity.

    The entire Spaces section can also be collapsed. When it’s collapsed, unread spaces peek outside the section, making it easy to scan for new unread activity.

    Favorite a space for quick access

    The Favorites section in the sidebar gives you quick access to your most important spaces and chats. Unread spaces and chats will also peek outside of the section when anything is unread.

    Subscribe to spaces for new post notifications

    You can subscribe to a space by clicking the bell icon on the Spaces list view or from any individual space page. Subscribed spaces will send notifications when new posts are published.

    If you use the Campsite Desktop app or have the Campsite PWA installed on iOS + Android, you will also receive a push notification.

    Learn more about push notifications for iOS and Android.

    New space creation flow

    You can add your entire team to a new space with a single click — or invite people individually. Admins can optionally mark a space as a “Default space” so that new team members will be added automatically when they join an organization.

    Add all members to new spaces at once

    Notifications when you’re added to a space

    Team members are now notified when they’re added to a space. This keeps everyone in the loop as new initiatives, teams, and topics are started across the company.

    Other improvements

    • Pressing space while on a call recording page will play/pause the recording video instead of scrolling the page.

    Fixes

    • Fixed a bug that prevented scrolling on the tag page
    • The app redirects back to the spaces index after leaving a private space.
    • Fixed a layout bug on mobile when sending large videos in chat.
  • Feature image for Push notifications for Android

    Stay in the loop with push notifications on Android for new activity in your conversations, like new mentions, replies, or comment resolutions. Push notifications work on Android devices when Campsite has been installed as a home screen bookmark.

    To install Campsite, open your browser, tap the ••• menu button, and select “Add to Home Screen.” Open the newly installed bookmark, sign in, and look for the “Enable notifications” button at the top of the Home feed.

    From your browser, tap the three-dot menu button and select “Add to Home Screen.”

    Other improvements

    • The empty state on the Calls page has been redesigned to make it clearer how to start a call and where recordings will appear after a call has ended.
    • We improved how content is truncated when shared to a Slack channel through our Slack integration.
    • Post titles are now inferred if the body text starts with a heading or line of bold text. These inferred titles will improve search ranking and make search results easier to scan.

    Fixes

    • Fixed a flickering layout mismatch when rendering an unfurled tweet preview.
    • Fixed a bug that could cause UI elements to display incorrectly on Samsung Android devices.
    • Fixed a bug where long text could overflow outside the chat composer.

  • Feature image for Push notifications for iOS

    Stay in the loop with push notifications for new activity in your conversations, like mentions, replies, or comment resolutions. Push notifications work on iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch when Campsite has been installed as a home screen bookmark.

    To install Campsite, open Safari, tap the Share button, and select “Add to Home Screen.” Open the newly installed bookmark, sign in, and look for the “Enable notifications” button at the top of the Home feed.

    From Safari, tap the Share button and select “Add to Home Screen.”

    Push notifications are available on iOS 16.4 or newer.

  • Feature image for Rich link previews

    Links shared in posts will automatically unfurl a rich preview card to make your team’s feed easier to scan and more visually interesting. This rich preview can be removed.

    We currently support rich link previews for X, Threads, Campsite posts from the same organization, and any other URL that returns open graph metadata.

    Other improvements

    • Tap the bottom tabs for Home, Inbox, or Chat on mobile to refresh the page.

    Fixes

    • The desktop app badge for unread notifications is cleared when signing out.
    • Fixed a layout bug when viewing public posts while signed out.
    • Fixed a bug that could send double push notifications in the desktop app.
  • Feature image for New activity badges

    Posts in your team’s feed are badged when there are new comments that you haven’t seen yet. This change makes sure you don’t miss any decisions or context in your active conversations.

    In addition, your team’s feed is now ranked: unseen posts, or posts with unseen comments, will always appear first in the feed. When you’ve seen everything, Campsite will show a “You’re all caught up” separator.

    Fixes

    • Fixed certain dialogs being misaligned at the top of the screen on mobile.
    • Fixed the attachment carousel gradient overlapping the navigation sidebar when viewing a post page.
    • Previewing attachments in the composer will open them at full height on mobile.
  • Feature image for Share any file

    Share any file — PDF, Keynote, .psd, code, audio, and anything else — in posts, notes, or comments to get feedback on anything you make.

    Campsite also renders .HEIC files natively to make sharing from iOS easier.

    Combined with version history, Campsite can be your team’s source of truth for progress on files that don’t have built-in comment systems.

  • Feature image for Generate Figma file previews from links

    Campsite automatically generates image previews from your Figma links, making it easier for your team to view and comment on designs without needing to open or log in to Figma.

    Image previews keep your team focused on the specific frames you want feedback on and can be used as a permanent archive for design version history.

    Connect your Campsite and Figma accounts from the account settings page.

    connect Campsite and Figma from the account settings page

    Once connected, paste a link to a Figma file, page, or frame into the post composer, and Campsite will automatically generate an image preview.

    Other improvements

    • We brought back the inbox popover, making it faster to peek into unread notifications and reduce the amount of clicking to navigate between active conversations.
    • Sharing posts to private Slack channels will only display channels where the current user is a member.
    • We added a better loading indicator to attachments in the composer that can be clicked to remove an attachment mid-upload.

    • UI polish, performance improvements, and minor bug fixes across the board.
