Using SnapshotFeed

Feed

The Feed — The wire. — is the app’s live ticker of regulator announcements: the most recent publications from every regulator the platform tracks, newest first, across all jurisdictions. It sits under the More menu, tagged Live wire.

It is the one reading surface that is independent of the loaded scan. Your snapshot is a considered, point-in-time analysis of a scope you chose; the wire is everything, as it lands. Use the scan to decide what matters; use the wire to see what has happened since — or what is happening outside your scope entirely.

The header carries the wire’s own statistics — ENTRIES · REGULATORS · REGIONS and LATEST (the newest entry’s date) — and the toolbar below shows a LIVE WIRE badge and the filters.

Reading the wire

Entries are grouped by day (Mon 12 May 2026, with an entry count per day) and each row reads left to right:

  • Date — a ~ prefix means the publication date could not be confirmed via the regulator’s own feed and is a best estimate.
  • Regulator code — colour-tinted by jurisdiction, so a column of FCA rows reads differently from a column of ESMA rows at a glance.
  • Regulation ID — when the announcement maps to a known identifier.
  • Title, and the topic area when one was classified.
  • ↗ — rows with a link open the regulator’s own page in a new tab. Rows without a link are informational.

There is no pagination; the list ends with END OF WIRE · N ENTRIES.

Filtering the wire

Three narrowing tools, all in the toolbar:

  • Region chips — one chip per region present in the wire, with counts. The wire’s regions are broad codes: UK, US, EU, APAC, CH (Switzerland), CA (Canada) and INTL (supranational bodies). One region at a time; click the active chip again (or All) to widen back out.
  • Regulator dropdown — narrow to a single regulator; combines with the region selection.
  • ◎ This scan’s scope — a one-tap preset that appears when a snapshot is loaded: it maps your scan’s jurisdictions onto wire regions and shows only those. Picking the preset clears any single-region chip and vice versa — they are two different ways of asking the same question.

While filtered, the toolbar shows X of N; Clear resets everything.

Scan jurisdictions and wire regions are different vocabularies. Your scan may say Singapore, Japan and Australia — the wire files all three under APAC. The This scan’s scope preset does that mapping for you, but it necessarily widens: scoping a Singapore-only scan onto the wire shows the whole APAC region, not Singapore alone. Use the regulator dropdown to tighten the last step.

Worked example: the gap since your last scan

Your loaded snapshot is dated 07-07-2026 (the ● SCAN tag in the ticker strip shows this on every tab) and you want to know what your regulators have published in the fortnight since.

  1. Open More → Feed. The wire loads newest-first; LATEST confirms it is current.
  2. Click ◎ This scan’s scope. The wire narrows to your scan’s regions — say EU and UK.
  3. Read down the day groups from today back to 07-07-2026. Two ESMA rows and one FCA row land in that window; one carries the regulation ID you have been tracking.
  4. Click the row, read the regulator’s page, and if it changes the picture, go to Snapshots and ↻ Re-Scan your configuration — the next Change Monitor will then confirm and date the change formally.

A non-obvious tip

The wire is the cheapest way to sanity-check a quiet Change Monitor. If the panel reports nothing confirmed and you find that hard to believe, scope the wire to your scan’s regions and read the window yourself — if the wire is also quiet there, the silence is real, not a scanning artefact. The two surfaces draw on the same announcements, so agreement between them is meaningful.
