Live Community Feed — See new members, new bookings, and community posts in one place, with important updates surfaced first.

Book a Padel court, flip slots to "Open" and other residents can join your match directly from the new Open Matches screen. You can also invite specific people to your game. Participants can track all their matches in My Bookings. Guest Friends Add friends from outside your community by phone number. Once connected, you can invite them to matches even if they're in a different compound or not part of any community yet. Manage your guest friends and incoming requests from the new Guest Friends tab in your Profile. Recurring Bookings Book your regular weekly slot in one tap. Enable "Repeat weekly" when confirming a booking and choose 2, 3, or 4 weeks ahead. The app automatically books each occurrence and lets you know if any week is unavailable. Waiting List Join the waitlist for a fully booked slot and get notified instantly if it opens up. Note: cancellations made less than 8 hours before a booking start time will still count against your booking quota. Community Board Improvements Like posts with a single tap. Edit your own posts at any time — including updating the photo. Delete your own posts when needed. My Bookings Redesign My Bookings now shows all your activity in one place — bookings across all your communities, matches you've joined as a guest, and pending match invites you can accept or decline directly from the list. Profile & Identity New members now set up their full profile (name, photo) before joining a community, so you'll always see real names across the app. Leave a community directly from your Profile if needed. Admin Improvements New calendar view in the admin bookings screen — see the full month at a glance with booking counts per day, tap any day to see details, and filter by facility.
