Pick the app you want to change
Open Build an app again. At the top sits a dropdown with *New app* as the default. Choose the app you want to refine there. One field appears: *what would you like to change?*
Say what should be different
Feel free to ask two things at once, as long as you stay concrete about what you want to see. "Put the plants that went longest without water at the top, and give them an orange border" works fine. Then click Apply.
Watching live in The Atelier
Mia does not rebuild — she only changes the part you asked about. In The Atelier you see your app change under your hands.
Something wrong? Just say so, in the chat or through Build an app. Describe what you see rather than what you expected: "the Save button does nothing when the field is empty" helps far more than "it does not work".
Frequently asked questions
Do I lose my data when I make a change?
No. Refining touches the app, not the content you entered.
Can I go back to a previous version?
Yes. Every build gets a version number; ask Mia to roll back to the previous version.
