The Big Update is Here: Buzzer Launches Major New Features

New Buzzer update is here and it elevates the platform’s user experience to a new level. Driven by a clear goal to deliver seamless and engaging experience, Buzzer has introduced key new features designed to make the platform safer, more engaging, and enjoyable for all. 

Updates to the Content Algorithm and Badges provide more personalized and interactive experience, while the introduction of Blogs and Threads offers journalists and users opportunities for more creative, in-depth content

Livestreaming is now more accessible than ever through Arena, enabling users to engage with sports events in real time, and KYC verification establishes a new standard for safety. Together, these enhancements encourage users to express themselves with greater depth, creativity, and connection.

Smarter Feed

Content is only valuable when it’s relevant. With its updated Content Algorithm, Buzzer now delivers a fully personalized feed, showing posts exclusively from the accounts each user follows. By removing irrelevant content, the feed becomes cleaner, more meaningful, and better suited to individual interests.

This isn’t just a technical change — it’s a redesign of how fans and creators connect. By focusing on followed profiles, Buzzer strengthens community-driven interactions, ensuring that every scroll is filled with sports voices and content that genuinely matter. The result is a platform that is authentic, focused, and truly user-oriented.

Blogs: Where Expertise Meets Engagement

Journalists, analysts, and sports enthusiasts are central to Buzzer’s mission of creating a vibrant, informed sports community. Recognizing their role, Buzzer has introduced Blogs — a dedicated space for long-form content that goes beyond short updates. 

Here, professionals can provide pre-match analyses, tactical breakdowns, post-match insights, and thoughtful opinion pieces, offering fans context and perspective that headlines alone cannot deliver. 

Beyond content creation, Blogs also provide monetization opportunities, allowing creators to earn revenue based on reader engagement. By combining editorial freedom, audience reach, and financial support, Blogs empower journalists and analysts to share expertise, deepen engagement, and transform their passion for sports into lasting influence and professional impact.

Threads: Quick, Expressive Updates

Sometimes, a moment or reaction can’t wait. Threads allow for short-form updates, ranging from 200 to 400 characters. Users can post reactions, quick insights, or commentary effortlessly, keeping the platform active and dynamic. 

Threads complement Blogs by providing a fast, low-friction way to communicate and engage, making the community feel alive at every scroll.

Arena: Bringing Live Sports to Life

At the core of the latest Buzzer update is Arena, the platform’s most significant and distinctive advancement. Arena redefines the live sports experience by shifting users from passive spectatorship to active participation

All sports events, such as tournaments, matches and even press conferences are surfaced directly into the feed through Arena, where they become the center of real-time discussion. The environment is dynamic and responsive, combining instant reactions, informed commentary, and collective observation as moments unfold.

Posts generated within Arena are also integrated into personal profiles, creating a seamless link between live engagement and individual identity. This capability marks a clear point of differentiation for Buzzer; unlike traditional broadcast models, Arena establishes an interactive space that captures the immediacy, context, and shared momentum of sport.

Arena is more than a streaming feature — it’s a place where fans feel the pulse of the game together, interacting with events as they unfold and forging connections across the community.

New Professional Dashboard 

Professional Dashboard introduces several key improvements designed to streamline monetization and payout processes for content creators. Users can now add their own cryptocurrency wallet addresses (ERC-20 and TRC-20), enabling them to request automated payouts directly through the dashboard. When initiating a payout, creators simply select the preferred wallet, making the process faster, clearer, and more efficient.

In addition, the KYC (Know Your Customer) process is now a mandatory requirement for creators who wish to access Professional Dashboard’s monetization tools. Verified users gain access to a secure Professional Studio, which provides earnings management, payout options, and visibility into performance metrics. Through these updates, Professional Dashboard evolves into a comprehensive and secure space for creators seeking to manage and grow their presence on Buzzer.

KYC Verification

In the digital environment, building and maintaining trust is a core priority. To support this, Buzzer has introduced KYC (Know Your Customer) verification for all users who wish to monetize their content through the Professional Dashboard. KYC ensures that payout accounts belong to verified individuals, creating a protected and transparent ecosystem for earning and engagement. This requirement is not optional; any user seeking payouts must successfully complete KYC verification.

The introduction of KYC is driven by regulatory and platform compliance. EU and US standards mandate identity verification for financial transactions, and both Apple and Google require similar safeguards for applications offering monetization features. At launch, KYC processing will take approximately 3–7 working days as verification systems scale.

By aligning with global compliance frameworks and platform policies, Buzzer strengthens the integrity of its Professional Dashboard, ensuring that monetization opportunities operate within a secure, accountable, and trustworthy environment for everyone.

Empowering Creators with Badge Improvements

Buzzer is driven by content creation, and the updated Badge enhances this experience. Badge subscribers enjoy higher daily upload limits and increased earnings per paid view, giving creators more opportunities to share, engage, and grow their presence.

In addition to video and posts, Badge also unlocks the ability to publish long-form blogs, enabling users to provide deeper analysis, coverage, and commentary directly on the platform. 

Through Badge, athletes, journalists, analysts, and sports enthusiasts gain access to powerful tools to grow influence and long-term monetization opportunities. With the Badge, users gain not only more visibility but also the tools to maintain a consistent, impactful presence on the platform.

A Fresh, Modern Look: Redesigned UI and Refined Icons

Buzzer’s latest update also introduces a fresh, modern look across the app, enhancing the visual experience and making every interaction smoother and more intuitive. The updated interface features refined icons, cleaner layouts, and improved navigation, ensuring that users can move seamlessly between feeds, content creation tools, and live events.

This redesign is more than aesthetic — it reflects Buzzer’s commitment to a user-centered experience, where every visual element supports engagement and clarity. From exploring personalized feeds to interacting in Arena, reading Blogs, or posting Threads, the new interface makes every action feel natural, fluid, and responsive. The refreshed design not only enhances usability but also reinforces Buzzer’s identity as a modern, professional, and dynamic platform for fans, creators, and journalists alike.

Looking Ahead: Buzzer’s Next Chapter

This update represents the next step in Buzzer’s ongoing evolution, a carefully planned progression in the platform’s journey to deliver a smarter, safer, and more engaging sports experience. Each enhancement — from personalized feeds and enhanced creator tools to live engagement and a refreshed interface — builds on the foundation Buzzer has been developing since its inception.

Far from a one-time release, these features reflect Buzzer’s long-term vision: to empower journalists, creators, and fans to connect, express, and engage with sports in meaningful ways. As the platform continues to evolve, every new update is another opportunity to strengthen community, foster creativity, and bring the passion for sports to life in ways that are intuitive, dynamic, and user-centered.
