Finally! Pip, our notifications-based messaging app, fixes and improves the two areas we heard the most feedback about!
First, now over 150+ countries are now able to download and use Pip 2.0 from the App Store (Google Play coming this or next week) — no more US numbers required to register. Finally.
Second, the fun stuff: now you can create your own custom pips. Custom pips! Create...

Following up our release of Pip last month, today we're launching Starlike, a new spin on social content readers. Think of it as friends curating your social feeds and only showing you what they think is the best stuff.
I'll be on in the morning (PT) and throughout the day answering questions, ask me anything, PH!

Isn't Nest, uh, Nest for HVAC? This doesn't seem differentiated, perhaps just more robust zone support (for those lucky enough to have multiple zones)?

I can't live without this one. I use Kaleidoscope for everything from comparing code to comparing legal documents. It also does images, entire folders, and more. Nothing else comes close.
