At GoodBarber, we know that good design is all about attention to detail. That's why today we're giving you even more control over your app's typography, with two new settings available in the back office: line-height and letter-spacing.

After several months' work, our team is proud to announce that the GoodBarber engine is now optimized for the latest version of Android! In this case, "optimized" means that applications built with GoodBarber take full advantage of the new features introduced by this update. You'll see, the impact is very visual!

This month, several improvements have been made to enhance your app. You can now adjust the line height and letter spacing for all fonts, giving you greater control over your design and readability. Lists have also been upgraded with new thumbnail formats, including Square, 16:9, 4:3, and Golden Ratio, as well as edge-to-edge display in certain widgets for a more immersive look. The preview experience has been enhanced, allowing you to test your app on various mobile devices and resolutions to ensure optimal display. Finally, your app icons are now categorized by usage, with a visual indicator showing which ones are active in your project. Below is a summary of the latest developments and updates from the beginning of the year.

GoodBarber is constantly evolving to offer its users powerful and intuitive tools. Today, we're pleased to present a new template that will transform the way you integrate and display audio content in your applications: the Immersive Card Banner template for the Sound Widget.  

Design trends are constantly evolving, and to create apps that stand out, it’s essential to keep up with these changes. Radial gradients, which are gaining popularity, have become a must for designing themes that align with current design standards. At GoodBarber, we’re excited to announce that you can now add radial gradients to your app with this new feature. And to make your experience even more intuitive, we’re also introducing a new color picker inspired by professional design tools like Photoshop’s famous eyedropper tool.

This month we're delighted to introduce the Sound Widget with Immersive Card Banner, designed to deliver a smooth, immersive audio experience. Sounds can be launched directly from the widget, with a timer that tracks progress in real time. Play/Pause icons allow you to start or pause playback while opening the mini-player, which automatically updates with the correct title, duration and thumbnail. Thanks to the auto-loop and autoplay settings, the widget's behaviour can be perfectly adapted to your needs. Explore this new way of making your audio content more dynamic today!   Below is a summary of developments and updates for December 2024.

With the integration of AppsFlyer, GoodBarber offers you an advanced solution to maximize the success of your campaigns while simplifying their management.

In today’s world, where data privacy is more important than ever, users expect apps that are both reliable and transparent. At GoodBarber, we’ve embraced this challenge with the launch of our new Privacy Center—a dedicated hub where you can manage your app’s permissions, libraries, and privacy policies, all in one place.

The Immersive Card Banner template, already popular for Map widgets, is now available for Agenda widgets. Showcase your events in an elegant and dynamic way with a modern interface and customization options designed to captivate your users.

This month, we're excited to spotlight a powerful new addition: the Privacy Center. Transparency and trust are at the core of building meaningful relationships with your users, and the Privacy Center is here to help you achieve just that. With the Privacy Center, you can now manage your app's permissions transparently and effortlessly. This new feature empowers you to centralize key privacy settings, communicate clearly with your users, and comply with the latest privacy regulations—all from one single page.   Below you'll find a summary of developments and updates during November 2024.

This article summarizes the key points discussed in these sessions while delving deeper into the concepts that drive our vision: simplifying without compromise and supporting our users while offering creative freedom.

Last week, we had the great pleasure of taking part in the third edition of the NoCode Summit in Paris, a must-attend event for creators and enthusiasts of code-free technology. This summit is much more than just a meeting place for industry professionals; it's a place where innovation comes to life, where ideas are transformed into concrete projects, without the need for a single line of code. For GoodBarber, being present at this event is a matter of course. We firmly believe that technology has the power to connect people, and it's this conviction that drives our participation in the no-code movement.

At GoodBarber, we're always looking for innovative ways to enhance the user experience and let your content shine at its best.

If you already use interactive maps in your app, you'll know how valuable this section can be for providing fluid, visual navigation. Maps are vital in guiding your users, whether you're highlighting physical locations such as stores, events, or tourist sites. With the Immersive Card Banner template, we're taking the next step by offering an even more dynamic and visually appealing experience.
