From a users perspective this presents a clear, focused, and unambiguous explanation of what Status does without the need to hunt around in the app. + +Lastly, a simplified and flatter structure will have a smaller surface area for bugs/testing/etc that will enable us to reach out beta goal sooner. + +### Product Description + +The app will have 3 tabs: Home, Wallet, Profile (copy tbc). + +Home consolidates chats, contacts, and discover in the current release.
