## October 14, 2026: Every app has its own icon {#2026-10-14-app-icons}

**Sections:** Design · Data and sign-in · Live app · Make changes

| --- | --- |
| When your app's first version finishes, FlutterFlow draws a symbol for its icon. The symbol waits in the **App icon** drawer, where you can select it, draw new symbols, or change the icon's **Style**. You can also ask [the agent](https://docs.flutterflow.io/ffx/glossary#building-with-the-agent) for another icon in a thread. | [App icon](https://docs.flutterflow.io/ffx/app-icon) |
| Starter rows copy into a table's [live data](https://docs.flutterflow.io/ffx/glossary#backend-and-data) only the first time a push brings them in. After that, they behave like ordinary rows in your live data. | [How data moves](https://docs.flutterflow.io/ffx/data-copies#how-data-moves) |
| When your app uses live updates, **Backend › Usage** tracks **Live updates** and **Live connections**: this month's messages to and from screens that watch records or lists, plus the screens connected right now. | [Backend usage](https://docs.flutterflow.io/ffx/backend-usage) |
| A thread's preview shows only that thread's changes. When another thread pushes to your app, your open thread shows a **Your app** card with **Bring it in now** and **Later** (which brings the changes in when you push the thread). | [Multiple threads](https://docs.flutterflow.io/ffx/several-threads) |
| In **Project Settings › Emails**, owners and developers can view and customize the emails your app sends to the people who use it, such as password resets. | [Password reset email](https://docs.flutterflow.io/ffx/password-reset-email) |

## October 12, 2026: Every thread gets its own data {#2026-10-12-thread-data}

| --- | --- |
| Each thread tests its changes against its own copy of your starter data. When a thread's copy of your app stores data, the thread's **Data** tab shows that copy so that the thread's creator can edit it without changing your app's live data. | [Thread data](https://docs.flutterflow.io/ffx/thread-data) and [Live, thread and starter data](https://docs.flutterflow.io/ffx/data-copies) |

## October 8, 2026: See what changed after every turn {#2026-10-08-turn-summary}

**Sections:** Make changes · Get started · App stores

| What changed | Learn more |
| --- | --- |
| When a turn ends, its **Summary** lists each screen and table that the turn changed. Select a screen row, or the Backend, table or Starter data row, to open that change. | [Turn summary](https://docs.flutterflow.io/ffx/what-changed#summary) |
| A pill above the phone preview shows its current status, such as **Updating preview** while changes load, or **Copy of your app** on an idle thread. When your app stores data, pointing to the pill shows that the preview uses a copy of your starter data. | [Preview](https://docs.flutterflow.io/ffx/preview) |
| When a push removes data from your app, the push dialog warns **This removes data from your app** and requires you to select **Remove it** before you push. | [Push](https://docs.flutterflow.io/ffx/push) |
| When a **Choice** card includes **Show in stage**, the stage panel opens the options on its **Choose** tab so that you can compare them before you pick one. | [Pick a design direction](https://docs.flutterflow.io/ffx/answer-the-agent#choice) |
| FlutterFlow shows a celebration when your first app is ready, when your first push finishes, and when your app goes live in a store. |  |

## October 6, 2026: A picture of every screen {#2026-10-06-screens}

**Sections:** Make changes · Get help

| --- | --- |
| The **Screens** tab shows light and dark pictures of every screen in a thread's version of your app and marks the screens that the thread changed. | [Screens](https://docs.flutterflow.io/ffx/screens) |
| To rate the agent's work in a thread, open the thread's menu, select **Rate this thread…**, and choose **Bad**, **Okay**, or **Good**. | [Send feedback](https://docs.flutterflow.io/ffx/send-feedback) |
| When another thread has pushed a conflicting change to the same part of your app, pushing prompts you to choose which change to keep. | [Push](https://docs.flutterflow.io/ffx/push) |

## October 4, 2026: Threads, grouped by who moves next {#2026-10-04-threads-list}

**Sections:** Make changes

| What changed | Learn more |
| --- | --- |
| The thread list groups your threads by who moves next: **Needs you**, **In motion**, and **Recent**. Each thread's ring shows its status, and pointing to a thread opens a card with its full name and status. | [How threads work](https://docs.flutterflow.io/ffx/threads) |

## October 2, 2026: A new Backend tab {#2026-10-02-backend-tab}

**Sections:** Data and sign-in · Services · Get help

| What changed | Learn more |
| --- | --- |
| **Backend** brings everything your app keeps into one place: **Activity** (every change pushed to your app's backend), **Data** (tables and records that owners and developers can edit), **People**, **Files**, and **Secrets** (visible to owners and developers), **Starter data**, and **Usage**. | [How the backend works](https://docs.flutterflow.io/ffx/backend) |
| Connect an outside service once in **Project Settings › Connections**, and it works for both your app and the agent. Your own accounts, for the agent to use as you in chats that you start, are in **Account › Connections**. | [How connections work](https://docs.flutterflow.io/ffx/connections) |
| Open **Send feedback** from the account menu, the command palette, or the bottom of the left bar on a computer. | [Send feedback](https://docs.flutterflow.io/ffx/send-feedback) |
