At Gather, we are constantly developing and testing new features to enhance your experience! We rely on A/B testing and partial roll-out of features to understand what works best for our users. These features are often not fully documented here in our help center based on their tendency to change. However, we want to provide a list and quick description of some of the features you may or may not see in your Space. Keep in mind that Remote Work and Event Spaces have unique features designed to meet the needs of each use case. The following is a list of features that appear in each use case.
Note: Many features are related to the type of Space you've made (events or remote work). Turning on Beta Features in your Space Settings does not guarantee access to these features.
