What's New in RotaMate
1.4.0
October 28, 2026
A new look for RotaMate, and new ways to plan, book and share your shifts. • Pick your top 3 before release: mark the shifts you want 1 · 2 · 3, and they wait at the top of the cycle, so you book them first when it opens. • Ten new widget styles for your Home Screen, Lock Screen and Live Activity, plus new widgets for your day, your month, swaps and attendance. Pick a style in More → Widgets. • Share your shift to your story: your live shift card, straight to Instagram, WhatsApp or Snapchat. • Coordinators: describe a cycle in a few words and AI drafts it for you, then checks it before you release it. Also new: • Home shows today first. • Answer a swap request from your Lock Screen: Accept, See or Decline. • Friends: see who's on shift today and this week, ask a friend to swap, or get reminded of their shift. • Choose when you're reminded before every shift, and set each alert to On, Quiet or Off. • Ask AI about a cycle and open it in one tap. • Apple Watch: your next shifts, a ring that fills as your shift goes, and swap requests you can accept from your wrist. • Hold the RotaMate icon for quick actions, and add RotaMate buttons to Control Center. • Coordinators: edit a shift in one tap, and copy roles from another unit you run or from your templates.
