What's New

In-app feedback widget

Share bugs, feature ideas, or UX feedback directly from inside the app — every page, every role. We read every submission.

Onboarding completion screens

Managers now see a clear 3-step next-action list after setup. Employees see a plain-English explanation of what happens after they submit availability.

Welcome email for new managers

New workspace owners receive a getting-started email with the three setup steps and direct links to invite the team and generate a schedule.

Beta health dashboard (admin)

Admin overview now shows onboarding progress rate, schedules generated, schedules published, pending requests, and recent feedback count.

Interactive demo workspace

Visitors can now try Shiftr without signing up. The /demo page shows a live schedule generation animation for a sample café workspace.

First-use availability hint

Employees with an empty availability grid now see a contextual prompt explaining how to fill it in before saving.

Schedule generation error tracking

Failed schedule generations are now captured in analytics and the generate page recovers gracefully back to the configure step.

Beta indicator and support access

A beta badge appears in the sidebar. A Help & Contact link is now always one click away from inside the app.

Typed analytics instrumentation

All key user flows (onboarding, schedule generation, publish, time-off, swaps, billing) now emit typed PostHog events for drop-off analysis.

Billing webhook guard

Fixed a rare crash where a Stripe webhook could attempt to update a workspace that no longer existed, causing an unhandled error.

Shift status transition machine

Shifts now enforce legal state transitions — a completed or cancelled shift cannot be accidentally moved back to draft.

Shiftr enters closed beta

Real-world beta access opens to the first cohort of small business managers. All core scheduling flows are live: generate, publish, time-off, swaps.
