Vandal v2.2: Brace Your Eyeballs

#

The Vandal Team

Apr 15, 2026

Tags built Vandal. Someone tags a spot "best al pastor in the city" and you believe them because the community's got skin in the game. That's how this works.

But now you also get to see it. That's v2.2.

The moment you actually know

Someone tags a hike "incredible views." You want proof they're not just Cred farming. A photo answers that in one second. Someone says "great patio" — well, now you see the actual patio before you waste the trip.

Tags + photos. That's the complete story.

Three seconds, then done

Tap the camera icon. Take a shot. That's it. No filters, no editing, no three different apps. Just point and tap.

Your photo shows up on the place page next to the tags (after a quick but necessary moderation). The next person who opens that spot sees everything — what the community is saying and what it actually looks like.

Other stuff we got better at

Typing in the tag input finally works — autocorrect and swipe typing do what you'd expect. GPS permission flow is less annoying. Map doesn't hiccup when you're panning anymore.


With love from the Vandals
