・A smoother home screen: check-in in the title bar, a feed that gets out of your way：On-site check-in sits in the title bar beside your child’s name, the same place whether you have one child or several, and the picker before scanning scrolls. As you read the daily log the shortcut row tucks away and floats back when you pull down; the round button for moments at home is there for every parent. Unpinning keeps your choice, your child’s age shows in full, and the today card holds its place. ・Pick several photos for a share card, and read announcements and surveys in full：When you turn a daily log into a share card, one tap swaps a photo and a long press starts multi-select: two photos sit side by side, four form a grid, and you are told when the card is full. Announcements now open as a full page with the files teachers attach viewable inside the app, and surveys are split into “to fill in” and “done”, so you can look back at the answers you gave. Your child’s card and profile page now show their class, and the yes/no answers a teacher ticked on a developmental checklist are clearly marked on your side. ・Notifications open straight to the right screen, and tell you the things that matter：After you scan to check in, both the child page and the scan page keep a “waiting for the teacher to confirm” card; when a teacher confirms or declines, the notification goes to the parent who scanned and opens straight onto the confirmation screen. An incident notice appears in your to-dos and in that day’s records the moment it is sent, and when the centre voids something — an incident, a health note or a payment notice — the original stays visible marked as voided, with a second notification explaining it. Cancelling a pickup delegation always notifies you, and the follow-up temperature check and the “ready to be collected” reminder are now two separate sentences. ・Leave: the reasons and back-dating window follow your centre, and you hear back as soon as it is handled：When you book leave for your child, the reasons listed and how far back you may record are taken straight from your centre’s own settings; the default date skips closure days and says so on screen. When the centre confirms or withdraws the request you get a notification and the status updates with it, and pulling down on the leave page fetches the latest state. ・Sign up on one page, and link the records of the same child on both sides：Registration on the login page now starts with two choices — parent/teacher, or “I’m a childminder”. Parents take the first and land on a single Register form. The invite code is optional: enter the one your centre gave you, or open the account now and join later; arrive from an invite link and the code is filled in for you. And when a child in your own family records looks like the child a centre has just registered, the app asks “Is this the same child?”, showing what matched — the same ID number, or the same name and date of birth. Confirm and the two sets of records are linked, with everything from before still there to look back on. ・Panels drag properly, switching is smoother, photos open faster：Every panel that slides up from the bottom now shares one design: the handle really drags, a tap closes it, and there is a clear line between the buttons and the content when you scroll. Menus are fully visible the instant they open. Switching between record types in a row and opening the photo picker are both smooth now, with a waiting state that stops double taps; comment threads update themselves when a new reply arrives, and screens refresh when a notification comes in. The pickup delegation form moves the signature area into view and lists what is still missing right next to the submit button. If your centre changes its name, the name shown in the app changes with it.
