What's New in Saga News

2.0.18

October 28, 2026

What's new • Notifications, rebuilt: push and in-app notifications have been reworked to be faster and more reliable, are now grouped into sections, and tapping one takes you straight to the right place. • Team and Department details: new screens for viewing teams and departments. • Linear instance permissions: whether you can edit a linear instance now follows your permissions (requires app restart). • Better offline handling: notifications, stories, tasks, teams, departments and rundowns now tell you clearly when you're offline or something didn't load, and reload by themselves once you're back online. Fixes • The description you've entered is kept while creating a story or pitch. • The description field is hidden when creating a story or pitch if your organization's settings require it. • Rundown categories no longer show up empty. • Notifications refresh correctly after you've read them. • The organization picker can be scrolled again. • The unread badge no longer cuts off large counts like "99+". • Assigned members are no longer shown twice. • The default "approved" icon now displays correctly.
