What's New in Rootly

2.17.3

October 22, 2026

This update improves sign-in reliability. • Fixed an issue where the app could sign you out and show "Session expired" after being in the background, so you could miss pages until you signed back in. Your session now stays active. • Acknowledge and resolve actions from notifications are more reliable, and are never applied to the wrong account if someone else signs in on the same device.

Check the notification sound

Mine somehow defaulted to blaring and I wanted to hurt someone when I heard that thing.

« Tinder » style coverage requests is awful idea

I have no idea who and under what circumstances thought that taking on coverage through « Tinder » style swipe is good UX, but it is absolutely obvious that it is very-very bad idea for team that actually care to be available during their on call rotation

Amazing app, extremely helpful

Oncall how it should be

I feel like I’ve used every on-call tool. From Pagerduty and VictorOps to incident and firehydrant.. this is the best one. Full control of what I need sound wise an easy to use. It’s all I need. I appreciate the thought that went into it.

Dreadful UI to respond to coverage requests

Confusingly and absurdly uses Tinder style swiping to respond to coverage requests with no ability to undo. Makes it easy to accidentally accept things when you are trying to dismiss, but hey, I guess it boosted their coverage metrics. Highly frustrating.
