What's New in ProPlans

September 2, 2026
Fixed • The app icon fills its shape on Android home screens that use circles or add their own background, instead of appearing as a small square on a white disc. • The buttons along the bottom of a photo or video open full screen now sit centred on one line, instead of riding high in the bar and shifting as the video controls come and go. • The project list no longer stays empty after a brief loss of connection. • Opening a different sheet no longer shows the markups from the sheet you just left while the new one is still loading. • The centre of a note pin and the face of a task icon are drawn again, instead of appearing as a black blank on the plan. • A private document shows its lock wherever it is opened full screen, not only from the documents list. • Editing a public document and saving it no longer turns it private. • The reset link in a password email opens the app and lets you set a new password there, instead of returning you to the screen that said the email had been sent. It works whether or not you are already signed in on that phone. • A link to a project opens that project, instead of leaving you on whatever screen you were already on. • Opening a chat clears its unread marks — the orange count on the project and the dot on the notification bell — however you got to it, not only by tapping the notification. • Your trade on the profile screen, and in the role pickers, follows a change of app language instead of staying in the language it was first shown in. • Losing your connection keeps the project list you last saw, and pulling to refresh no longer empties it. Opening a project you have not downloaded explains that it will be available again when you are back online. • Documents shown as a list are rows again, one line each with a small picture beside the name, instead of one document filling the screen and the rest of them below it. • On Android, swiping inside a panel scrolls what is in it instead of trying to close the panel, so lists that are taller than the screen can be reached. Panels still close with the back gesture, the back button and the X. Added • A note's photos can be swiped or arrowed through full screen without closing and reopening each one, and shared from there. • A video opened full screen can be handed to the phone's own player from the playback controls, and brought back the same way. • A document open full screen can be moved through page by page with arrows either side of the page count, and a private one is marked with a lock beside its name. • Documents open as a list, with a button beside the filter to switch to the tile view and back. Whichever you were last in is the one you come back to. • Several documents can be picked at once when uploading, instead of one per trip to the file picker. Changed • Sharing a document open full screen has moved up beside the close button, so the whole viewer is one bar of controls. • On a tablet, documents shown as tiles fill the width — three across held upright, four across held wide — instead of two with the rest of the row empty. • Messages clear themselves after three seconds, or five when there is a full sentence to read. Warnings and errors always get the longer five. • A new password only has to be 10 characters or longer — no capitals, numbers or symbols are required, so a phrase you can remember is now a valid password. Existing passwords keep working as they are. Fixed • The notification count on a project tile now covers everything unread for that project rather than only the most recent notifications, and clears once you have read them. • Verifying a set of sheets after uploading more of them no longer shows a "Changes saved" message for every sheet in turn. • Swiping a message away or closing it now dismisses it for good rather than only hiding it. • The language you choose on the sign-in screen is remembered, instead of switching back to the phone's language the next time you open the app or sign out. • The toolbar comes back and…
