Discovering the new mobile Home feed

⚠️ Update: Patreon's new mobile Home feed has rolled out to all creators and fans. Learn more about Patreon's new network in our April 28th post, Go get discovered.

We’re rolling out a new Home feed experience in the Patreon mobile app. During early access some Patreon members may have experienced this new Home feed already, and now all members of Patreon for Creators will see the new Home feed experience in their mobile app.

This update is part of a broader set of early access updates that you may hear referred to as Patreon’s network bundle. The goal is to make Patreon feel more connected and community-driven by helping fans keep up with the creators they already support, while also making it easier to discover new creators and communities they’ll genuinely care about.

To dive more into what the network bundle is, how and why we’re building discovery on Patreon, check out this video from Patreon’s CEO and co-founder Jack Conte.

Our network bundle tools like Quips, collab posts and the new mobile Home feed are in early access (if you don't see them in your account, eligible creators can sign up for the waitlist by logging into your account and heading here.) Here is more information on what you and your members can expect in the new experience as more creators on the waitlist get access.

Below we’ll walk through what’s changing, what it means for creators and members, and how to stay in control of notifications.

The new mobile Home feed experience for members

If you’re a member of Patreon for Creators, you’ll see an updated feed experience in the Patreon mobile app when viewing the app in your member profile (if you're not part of early access to the network yet). This is what fans will start seeing if they don't see it already as we rollout the new Home feed experience.

This update is designed to do two things at once: help creators reach new audiences through discovery, while still making it easy for fans to find the posts that matter most from the creators that they already support.

Here’s what that means in practice:

• Home feed is designed to help fans discover and browse. The Home feed will include a mix of public posts and Quips, including posts from creators you follow as well as posts from creators you do not follow. Posts from creators you already follow are prioritized.

• A feed just for your memberships is designed to be the reliable place to catch up on posts from creators you already support. This feed is intentionally reserved for posts and Quips from creators you are a member of.

You can think of it as choosing your own adventure based on what you’re in the mood for: discovery in Home, or a more membership-focused view in Memberships.

A couple important notes:

• This updated feed experience is mobile-only right now.

• At this time on web, the feed remains a list of posts from creators you are a member of, and it does not include discovery content like Quips from other creators outside of your memberships.

As a member of Patreon for Creators, you’re getting an early access experience. This represents the experience fans will increasingly see across Patreon over the coming months as we expand early access.

Where Quips fit in

You may also hear us talk about Quips, which are short, lightweight public posts that can show up in the Home feed.

Notifications: what to expect, and how to stay in control

As new discovery experiences roll out, some creator actions in the app, like Quipping, can trigger push notifications for their members depending on their individual members’ notification preferences.

If you ever want to fine-tune what you’re notified about or help your fans fine-tune their notifications, member notification sections can be managed directly in the Patreon app by going to Settings → Notifications. You can also adjust Patreon notifications at the system level of your mobile device by updating your phone’s notification settings on iOS or Android.

We want members to feel in control as the Home feed evolves, and we want creators to have clear language they can use to set expectations with their audiences.

How to communicate these updates to your members

Here are a couple of templates you can use as a creator to share with your members as Patreon’s new Home feed and Quips roll out more broadly:

“Heads up: Patreon is rolling out a new Home feed experience. It's designed to help creators like me grow our community on Patreon and help connect fans with new creators that share common interests. If you want to customize what you get notified about, you can update your notification settings in the Patreon app under Settings → Notifications.”

“If you ever feel like you’re getting too many notifications, you can fine-tune Patreon notifications in the app, or in your phone’s notification settings.”
