What's New in ProPlans

2026.10.21

October 21, 2026

Added • New accounts, and accounts signing in again, confirm their email address with a code or a link sent to it, and a project or join link opened before signing up still opens once that is done. • Resetting your password also confirms your email address. • If someone else signed up with your email address and never confirmed it, creating your account offers to reset its password, which makes that account yours. • Your profile says when your email address is not verified, and lets you verify it. • You can change your email address in your profile; the new one takes over once you confirm the code sent to it, and entering your current address again cancels the change. • An invitation email opened on a phone that has the app fills in its address on the sign-up screen. • Invite People invites several people to several projects at once, and opens from the menu, a project card's menu, Contacts and the end of a new project. • People invited to several projects at once get one email that names them all. • A pasted list of email addresses becomes one invite for each address. • Choosing who a task is for, and starting a new message, offer Invite someone new. • Someone who joined by invitation is shown, once, where to invite others. • Admins and Managers can hide the built-in document categories a project doesn't use from the Documents filter and the category picker, and show them again from the filter, while documents already in one keep it. • Settings has a date and time format: dates written month first, day first or year first, and times on a 12-hour or 24-hour clock, whatever language the app is in. It follows you to every phone you sign in on. • Messages, task comments, a task's work details and notes can link a plan sheet, or an area of one you select, with a picture of it and a View in plans button that opens the plan right there. • A task's work details link the pin of the list it is on, and View in plans on a task list now zooms in on its pin. Changed • Projects you were invited to before you signed up appear once your email address is verified. • Inviting people needs a verified email address. • In Contacts, inviting is the Invite People button, which also holds your phone's contacts and the join code. • Markups and notes other people add, change or delete now appear on an open plan by themselves, without it reloading, so the refresh button is gone. • In All Plans, tapping a sheet's number or name opens it, as tapping its picture does. • Deleting a note and removing someone from Contacts ask in the same layout as every other confirmation, with Cancel on the left. • In Contacts, the project's owner is marked Owner rather than Admin. • In Contacts, the first person in the list slides open to show what a swipe reveals only the first time after you sign in, rather than every time. Fixed • With a keyboard, Tab no longer stops on the magnifying glass beside a search box. • In Spanish and Portuguese, a date such as the one beside a conversation from earlier this year puts the day before the month, as the rest of the app does. • Access Control on a document shows its Private and Public switch and who has access again, instead of opening onto an empty space. • A project's Updated date and a document's Uploaded date are the day where you are, so something changed in the evening no longer shows as the next day. • A deleted project can always be brought back from the Storage screen, including one with nothing in it, which used to leave no way to reach Recently deleted. • Adding sheets to a project no longer tells you to skip a step that has no Skip, and cancelling that upload no longer asks whether to cancel a new project. • Swiping across a project card no longer opens the project. • On a phone held wide, the side menu scrolls, so Feedback, About ProPlans and Sign out can be reached.

Convenience and Ease of Use- amazing!

ProPlans is innovation at its finest, making project management simpler, more organized, and more efficient.

I’ve only recently started using ProPlans, but I can already see how valuable this platform is for managing projects and keeping my crew on the same page. It’s incredibly user-friendly, takes the guesswork out of communicating tasks, and has already helped us stay more organized.

My favorite feature is the ability to assign tasks directly on uploaded plans. With freehand drawing, shapes, and notes, I can mark up specific areas of a plan, clearly communicate what needs to get done, and assign work to individual crew. Being able to set high, medium, or low priorities is another huge plus, especially when juggling multiple tasks and trying to keep the project on schedule.

I also appreciate the built-in messaging and tagging features. Instead of important updates getting buried in group texts or email threads, notes stay connected to the project. It makes coordinating with the crew much easier.

As a project manager, anything that limits miscommunication, keeps everyone accountable, and saves time in the field is a win in my book. ProPlans does exactly that without making things more complicated than they need to be.

Thank you ProPlans for making my job easier! I’m excited to see what comes next.

POSITIVE REVIEWS ARE FAKE! Riddled with stupid problems

App is awesome in theory. Terrible in execution. Logging in is a nightmare. Switch into and out of menus is a disaster. Account management is impossible from an iPhone. Link takes you back to a browser which doesn’t work. Constantly forces you to log back in. The account management feature is totally broken. Essentially everything we attempted to get this app operational was a failure. It’s like these developers never attempted even once to setup an account as a new user. App looks amazing in theory, terrible in execution.

Response from developer

MrTyGuy, this one was a little painful for all of us to read, but honestly, you weren’t wrong. When you tried ProPlans, we still had some real problems with login, account setup, navigation, and the app/browser experience. We’ve made a ton of changes since then, including fixing the issues you called out. ProPlans today is a very different app from the version you were using. We certainly don’t expect you to come back and change your review, but we wanted you to know we read it, took it seriously, have kept working, and will continue to keep working on the product. Thanks for trying it in the first place.
