Your feed shows posts from every youmap you follow, create, or moderate. These settings let you shape what you see and how you're notified.
Filtering your feed
Three filters sit at the top of your home feed. The feed list and the world map both update when you select any combination of the filter.
- Time - New, Last 7 days, Last 30 days, All year, or All
- Location - Everywhere, Nearest, or a specific country
- Map - All Maps, or a single youmap from your list
Update your interests
Your interests shape the map and post recommendations in your feed. You set them during sign-up, but you can update them any time.

- iOS: Profile photo is located at the bottom bar nav

Star your favorite youmaps
In the sidebar, each youmap in your list has a star next to its name. Tap the star to fill it. Starred youmaps rise to the top of your map list, so the ones you use most are always first.
Tap the star again to remove it.
