Features FAQ

Welcome to the Diina FAQ section, where we unravel the features and UI innovations that make our app a unique companion for urban exploration.

Here, you’ll find answers to common questions, providing insights into how Diina enhances your connection to city life. Whether you’re curious about our 21 City Moods, the City Dash, or  Daily Scope, this section offers a comprehensive guide to help you navigate and make the most of your Diina experience. 

User Interface Explained
What is the function of the City Wall ?

The City Wall serves as your continuous feed for the pillars that Diina is built upon: Recipes or Restaurant Ideas? What’s in the news? What’s the city’s mood? It offers a broad spectrum of information, including recipes, restaurant listings, and events, allowing you to explore freely without any filters and stay connected with the urban pulse. The UI is closer to how we consume social media.

What is the function of the Daily Scope?

The Daily Scope, inspired by the horoscope in its name and the executive overview in its approach, provides a succinct summary for those who may find the City Wall overwhelming. It distills the core elements of Diina into a digestible format, offering clear insights into what’s happening in the city today, what to eat, and the current mood.

What is the function of the City Buzz?

City Buzz caters to those interested solely in what’s currently buzzing in the city, whether positive or negative. It narrows the filter to focus exclusively on trending topics, clearing the noise so you can zero in on the buzz. City Buzz is your go-to destination for a streamlined view of the city’s hottest topics.

What is the function of the City Dash?

The City Dash, or City Dashboard, provides an overview of the key performance indicators (KPIs) attached to the city. Unlike a continuous feed of information, this section offers a clear view of how scores are trending, allowing you to compare them globally or over time. Also known as the mood swing view, it delivers valuable insights into the city’s dynamic shifts.

What is the function of the "Search" feature?

The Search feature is designed to help you find specific topics of interest, such as your favourite team, company, or subject. It provides a comprehensive list of sources and information related to your query, ensuring you have easy access to all relevant content we’ve found.

What is the function of the Global Pulse?

The Global Pulse acts like an editor’s pick, highlighting topics that are trending worldwide. It automatically triggers a search on these topics, providing a curated view of global trends and insights.

What is the function of Filters?

Filters allow you to narrow your view to specific categories, such as recipes, events, or restaurants. Currently, we offer nine filters: Positive Buzz, Negative Buzz, Food Recipes, Restaurants, Outfits for Her, Outfits for Him, Movies, TV Shows, and Events. You can pick more than one filter and hit apply to validate your selection, helping you focus on the content that matters most to you.

How can I share search results or a card ?

To share search results, click the arrow icon, as shown in the image. You can choose from five sharing options: Copy Link, Share by Email, X (formerly Twitter), Facebook, LinkedIn, and WhatsApp. This makes it easy to share information with others through your preferred platform.

What is the “Social Pulse” feature?

 

The Social Pulse feature allows you to search social media networks for reactions to a specific buzz or card. Currently, we provide links to X (formerly Twitter), Threads Network, and Reddit. Please note that you may need an active account with these networks to conduct a search and fully explore discussions and insights from these platforms.

Gen Ai & Mood Scores
What is the Mood Score?

The City Mood Score is a dynamic feature within the Diina app that reflects the city’s energy anytime, ranging from -100% to +100%. It captures various variables such as news sentiment, weather, air quality, seasons, and traffic through a proprietary algorithm. Each score is visually represented through specific colours and emoticons to guide city exploration. Diina also adapts recommendations, like movies and recipes, based on current mood information. For more details on how the City Mood Score can enhance your urban experiences, visit our City Mood section.

What is the News Sentiment or Content Score?

The Content or Sentiment Score is a metric ranging from -1 to 1 that reflects the sentiment of content. Positive scores indicate positivity, negative scores suggest negativity and a score of 0 represents neutrality. This score helps users gauge the overall tone of news articles or content.

What is the Global Scope Video?

The Global Scope Video is a daily video that provides an overview of the top topics and moods from around the globe. They deliver a concise, visual representation of trending issues and sentiments worldwide, offering a comprehensive snapshot of the global landscape. You can access it under the Daily Scope section.

What is the GenAi Disclaimer?

We are testing a new model for media where Generative AI (GenAI) is used across various workflows, including text, translation, images, audio, and video. The AI Disclaimer provides transparency by disclosing most of the tools we use. It’s important to note that GenAI is integral to every aspect of the product. To read the full disclaimer, please visit our AI Disclaimer page.

Can I suggest a new city for Diina?

Yes, you can! We welcome suggestions for new cities. Please share with us why you believe your city would be ideal for our next deployment or update. To propose your city, visit Propose Your City.

Diina Store & Diina Coffee
Do you manage the Diina Store "Wear your Mood"?

Not directly. We design and conceptualize the store, but we partner with Fourthwall for production, delivery, and management. For more details, please refer to the terms and conditions on this link.

Are you planning to release new designs for the store?

We plan to release new designs each season, aligning them with seasonal changes and other factors influencing moods. This approach ensures our offerings remain fresh and reflect the city’s dynamic energy. If you have ideas or special needs you’d like to share, please use our “Contact Us” feature to get in touch.

What does “Buy Us a Coffee” mean?

“Buy Us a Coffee” is a service managed by Buy Me a Coffee. This feature invites our partners and fans to support our project by making contributions. While not required, these contributions help us finance and continue developing Diina, allowing us to enhance the experience for all users.
