We just released a new version with loads of fixes and improvements, plus a long-awaited feature, available for now to Supporters to try and provide feedback.

Introducing Gems!

Gems is a Crates feature aimed to help fellow music-heads share great music they’ve discovered and believe the community should discover as well.

Here’s a quick overview of how it works:

  • Each user starts with a limited number of tokens that enable them to recommend tunes they find worth sharing.
    Other users will see the posted gems and choose to reveal, pass, or downvote
    If enough users choose to reveal your gems, you’ll earn reputation points and more tokens. If not, well… you can always try again.

For more, you can check out the in-app Guide (Help -> What are Gems?) or just click the Gem icon on the top left and go straight to the feed.

Updating to 1.6.1

Mac Users can get version 1.6 from the in-app updates, as well as from Downloads.

For this particular version, Windows Users should update only by downloading the installer from Downloads. Please don’t forget to exit both the Crates app and the Crates Server (at the tray) before running the installer.
As always, you can reach us at Crates Discord for any questions, feedback, requests or just hang!
