# Introducing v2 Tweed

We're excited to debut v2 "Tweed" today, on all platforms.
We launched v1 in March as soon as we had the basics complete- in part because we wanted to get out there and get more people in the system, and in part because it felt like a hurdle that needed getting over. In the following four months, We've been hard at work at bringing much needed UI and feature upgrades (as well as some user-suggested features) to round out the core functionality. Everything we've done to bring Tweed to life has us better positioned to build more, faster. We hope you like what you see.
Here's a full read out of everything we've just updated in the product. It's quite a departure from where we started, but there are improvements in just about every area of the product that make storage, sharing, and listening easier and better than ever.
Audio Support
- Added support for M4A and AAC audio file formats. (AAC is funky, don't recommend but it does work.)
- Improved file upload reliability with automatic file type detection
File Management
- Tracks can be sorted by date created and file name, or custom ordering.
- Collections are now listed by date created, but can be sorted by name, date created, or date modified.
- Collections can be duplicated.
User Interface Improvements
- Updated and aligned iconography throughout product
- Redesigned music player interface for better usability and readability
- Collection names appear on the player now, making it easier to know where you are
- Added the option for "needle drop" playback in user settings
- Updated login screen with simpler design
- Refreshed My Account section layout
- Improved and unified notification positioning for better visibility
- Enhanced Collection view, consolidated user actions for faster navigation
- Improved and consolidated Edit Collection flow
- Added Collection description field for notes, info, or context sharing with links
- Enhanced All Collections view
**Bug Fixes**
- Fixed issue where empty collections couldn't add tracks on iOS app
- Fixed track reordering when dragging songs in playlists
- Fixed session handling to prevent unexpected logouts
- Fixed an issue with log in that would re-prompt for EULA confirmation
- Improved app stability and performance
- Fixed an issue where images were stretched or squashed on iOS app
**Behind the Scenes**
- Enhanced analytics for better app improvements
- Updated app framework for improved performance
- General bug fixes and performance improvements
- Back-end overhaul for faster dev implementation
