4.8.0
2020-09-21
This release introduces add-ons as a new type of reward option. When you back a project, you can include additional, optional (and sometimes multiple) rewards as part of your overall pledge. You’ll see available add-ons after you’ve selected your main reward tier, which allows you to customize your reward with greater detail.
And if you’d like to offer the creator a little extra money to help bring their project to life, you can also enter any amount you’d like into the “Bonus support” field. We’ve always had this function, but now it has its own space.
4.7.0
2020-08-24
Now you can log in to Kickstarter with your Apple ID. In the app, you’ll see a collection of our Lights On projects to support creative spaces and businesses affected by COVID-19.
To help make sure creators get their funds and can bring their projects to life, we’ve also added push notifications and a clear in-app alert when we’re unable to collect your pledge. You’ll know how to fix your payment method—and how much time you have left to do it—so that your pledge isn’t dropped from the project.
