Update 2 in the Web Beta: from chat to plan and back

New local journeys for exploring plans, people, and ideas without confusing an interface with a real service.

The conversation thread remains the starting point

Update 2 expands what can be explored inside Living Phone without changing the central SmileChat idea: an action starts in conversation and should return to that exact thread. My chats adds combined chat and SmileWorld search, filters for organizing the list, and Events + access from each conversation’s tools.

That return matters more than accumulating screens. A favourite, route, item, or plan keeps meaning because it comes back to the place where people were discussing it. In the Beta, context and state remain in this browser; no message is delivered to another person.

Nine areas to explore

SmileEvents brings together Events, SmileDates, Sports, Explore Spain, Explore your city, Restaurants, SmileHunt, SmileFashion, and SmilePodcast. Across the areas, the journeys combine navigation, filters, and local states: from choosing a seat or table to saving a place, preparing a post, or following a role-based mission.

These are functional Beta journeys, not screenshots. Their data remains sample content. Sports scores do not come from a live feed; SmileDates profiles are not connected people; SmileFashion links no sellers; and SmileHunt coordinates no four remote devices.

Tickets, QR, and payments with visible limits

Some journeys end in a local ticket with a QR generated in the browser. The code can be scanned and the ticket saved, but both identify a sample and grant no venue admission. Tables, seats, bookings, orders, items, shipping, and prizes do not represent real availability either.

Simulated payment demonstrates confirmation, failure, retry, or cancellation without collecting a card, moving money, or creating a purchase. If SmileChat were to offer real commerce later, it would need separate terms, responsible parties, providers, privacy, and support before accepting data or commitments.

Your trials remain under your control

Favourites, basket, drafts, profiles, posts, sample chats, tickets, and progress are stored locally so you can continue a journey. You can remove them by resetting the experience or clearing site data in the browser.

Camera or location permission is requested only when you activate a related action. SmileHunt provides an accessible simulation for trying the journey without sharing position. Product Status and the FAQ explain what is explorable and what would still need a real connection.
