Fixed
Emerging Clubs Filter Now Works on Activity Feed
The 🌱 Emerging toggle now properly filters the Activity Feed to only show events from smaller, growing clubs. Previously, the feed showed all events even when the filter was on.
Improved
Centralized Emerging Clubs Criteria
The criteria for what counts as an "emerging club" is now defined in one place, making it consistent across all pages and easier to tune in the future.
Fixed
Tag Edit Token No Longer Resets
Fixed a bug where you had to re-enter your edit token after every tag change. Now once you verify your token, it stays active for the whole session — add or remove as many tags as you want without re-entering it!
Fixed
Tag Remove Buttons Now Stay Visible
Fixed a bug where the remove (×) buttons on current tags would disappear after making any tag change. You can now properly remove tags without the UI resetting.
Improved
Edit Token Remembered Per Tab
Your edit token is now remembered for the current browser tab, so you won't need to re-enter it if you navigate away and come back. Closing the tab clears it for security.
Improved
Friendlier Status Labels
Status labels now feel more natural: "Declining" → "Cooling Off" ❄️, "Quiet" → "Chill" 😎, "Stable" → "Steady". The vibe is the same, just warmer words!
New
Platform Icons on Bubbles
Bubbles now show PC and Quest icons right on them so you can see at a glance which platforms are supported without hovering.
New
Tags in Tooltips
Hover over a bubble to see the group's tags (18+, Event Type, Region, etc.) displayed as colorful badges. Tags are sorted by priority so the most important info shows first.
New
Current World Name
Tooltips now show the name of the most populated world the group is currently in, so you know where the action is.
Fixed
Bubble Scaling Polish
Fixed a visual bug where group logos, names, player counts, and platform badges (PC/Quest) would appear jittery or misaligned when bubbles grew or shrunk. Everything now animates smoothly together.

New
Live Activity Bubble Map
A brand new way to see what's happening in VRChat! Watch clubs as animated bubbles that grow and shrink based on how many people are there. Bigger bubble = more people partying.
New
Rewind the Night
Missed what happened earlier? Use the new rewind slider to go back in time and replay how the night unfolded. Perfect for seeing when events peaked!
New
Smart Event Detection
VRC DAT now automatically notices when something exciting is happening — like when a club suddenly fills up or hits peak attendance. You'll see these moments highlighted in the activity feed.
New
Copy Group Codes
Click any group bubble to see a tooltip with quick links. You can now copy the VRChat group code with one click to easily join or share.
New
Install as App
VRC DAT can now be installed as an app on your phone or computer! Look for the "Install" option in your browser for quick access.
Improved
Fresh New Look
The homepage got a makeover with a sleek new logo banner. The sidebar can now be collapsed to give you more screen space when you need it.
Improved
Better Link Previews
When you share VRC DAT links on Discord, Twitter, or other apps, they now show nice previews with titles, descriptions, and images instead of plain URLs.
Fixed
Mobile Experience
The site now works much better on phones! Fixed issues where charts were too big, bubbles were hard to tap, and tooltips appeared in weird places.
Fixed
Clickable Tooltips
Fixed an annoying bug where tooltips would disappear right when you tried to click on them. They now stay put so you can actually use the links inside.

New
Tag System
Groups can now have tags like "Club", "Chill", "Dance", "Rave", and more! Use tags to filter and find exactly the type of events you're looking for across the entire site.
New
Rewind Chart View
See all active instances on a visual rewind. Watch events start, grow, and end. Click on any block to jump straight to that group's page.
New
Multiple View Modes
The rewind now has three different layouts: Grouped (organized by club), Compact (space-efficient), and Tetris (stacked blocks). Pick whichever helps you see the data best!
Improved
Better Color Contrast
Groups next to each other now have clearly different colors so you can tell them apart at a glance.
Fixed
Various Bug Fixes
Squashed several bugs that were causing page errors and display issues. Things should run much smoother now!
