Product Updates

Following the release of version V13, we are rolling out a series of enhancements identified through internal reviews and customer feedback. These improvements focus on better readability, easier navigation with fewer clicks, and a range of cosmetic changes that will make the app more intuitive and user-friendly.

We are updating the interface of the Ronspot web app to match the modern design of mobile app V13 and the upcoming native Microsoft Teams app, ensuring a consistent and user-friendly experience across all platforms.

The new version of the calendar will dynamically load all visible weeks without requiring weekly refreshes. In addition, the design will be refined with larger calendar cells that align with standard app layouts, ensuring a smoother experience and improved readability.

Some report exports could be incomplete due to lazy loading, requiring users to scroll through all data before exporting. We are introducing a new button on each report that allows you to export all data in one click, without the need to scroll.

In order to improve the usage rates and optimise space, we have given the option for you to lift restrictions on these spots after a specific time. This time can be set in the spot settings. After this time, all employees who have access to the spot can book it.

In the app, employees are now sorted alphabetically when searching for team members. Previously, they were listed in the order they were added to the system. This new alphabetical sorting makes it easier to find colleagues.
