Hey! This is John from SparkLaunch and I wanted to share a little of what we're up to this week.

Overall, we had a lot on our plate to complete this week, like security improvements and small UX changes, but additionally prioritized spending time to listen to our users.

Two items in particular were adding an option for a contact card version of the QR code generator and also an option to add a password to view the pitch decks.

We’ll be making more improvements to the pitch decks soon and I really love what we’ve got cooking in development.

Have a great rest of your weekend and let us know what you're building too!
