Venmo's redesigned app gets rid of the global payments feed

Venmo has grown into much more than a simple payment platform, and the company has redesigned its app to reflect that. The company has introduced a revised app for Android and iOS that tosses the global feed, which showed random publicly-shared payments between people in favor of the friends feed that shows what's happening with your close connections. It's not surprising to see the company put some extra emphasis on privacy following the revelation that President Joe Biden's Venmo account was publicly viewable.
