What is a Pulse on cruush?
Written by Julien, lead developer of cruush.
What does a Pulse do?
A Pulse is a way to say you are around right now. Your heart beats on the map for 30 minutes and your Signal posts to Confessional. Your pin does not move.
How do you send one?
- Write a Signal on your profile first. A Pulse needs one.
- Open Map Controls and tap Send a Pulse.
- Choose a radius: 1, 3, 5, 10, 15, 25 or 50 miles.
- Choose who sees your beat and who sees your pin.
- Tap Send Pulse.
Who sees it?
- Who sees your beat: Everyone, Cruushes or My crowds.
- Who sees your pin: No one, Cruushes, My crowds or Everyone.
How many can you send?
New members get 2 a day for their first 7 days. After that, accounts without cruush+ get one every 24 hours and cruush+ accounts get five.
Who gets alerted?
Phone alerts go to cruushes only. Each person gets at most one every 4 hours and one per sender per day, and quiet hours are respected. Pulse alerts has a switch in notification settings, and a separate Pulses near me switch is off until you turn it on.
When does it not work?
You cannot send a Pulse while Dark Room is on.
