Changelog

July 15, 2026

• Visiting the login page while already signed in now takes you straight to your dashboard. Previously, trying Google sign-in on top of an existing session (for example, after exploring the demo dashboard) could fail with a confusing error.
• If that sign-in conflict does happen, the login page now explains it and offers a one-click sign-out so you can try again.

July 15, 2026

• Fixed Google sign-in failing when you visited the site at www.booklocally.net — the www address now redirects to booklocally.net everywhere.
• If a sign-in attempt fails, the login page now tells you what went wrong instead of silently returning you to the form.

July 6, 2026

• Upload your logo and a cover photo in Settings → Branding. Your logo appears beside your business name, and the cover photo banners the top of your booking page — customers land on your brand, not a plain header.Pro
• Brand color stays free for everyone, as always.

July 6, 2026

• Mark a service as remote / off-site (website build, design work) and the booking page stops asking those customers for a street address and gate codes.
• Fixed demo and referral links that could point to the wrong address in production.

July 5, 2026

• Booking pages now show a "Next available" shortcut that jumps straight to the soonest open date — no more paging through empty weeks.
• When a business requires booking notice, the calendar says so instead of just looking empty — and a fully-booked calendar explains itself too.
• Reschedule any appointment right from the dashboard. The customer gets the new time by email, with an updated calendar invite and a link to change or cancel.
• Download your appointments and customer list as CSV, anytime, on every plan. Your data is always yours.
• Free plan: a heads-up email when you've used 80% of your monthly bookings, and a clear dashboard notice (plus email) if your page pauses at the limit — no more finding out from a customer.

July 5, 2026

• Explore a real owner dashboard — the live demo now includes a full pool-care business (routes, day tools, waitlist) you can click around in. It resets itself every night.
• Each live demo booking page now shows off different features — zip-code service areas, gate-code questions, booking notice rules — with tips on what to try.
• Terms of Service and Privacy Policy pages, linked from every page.

July 4, 2026

• Customer addresses now appear in every booking email with a Google Maps link, and in calendar invites.
• Access notes at booking — gate codes, pets, parking — shown on the day's route and in your emails.
• Booking rules: require minimum notice (say, 24 hours) and cap how far ahead customers can book.
• Rain-day tools: cancel or ask a whole day to reschedule in one action, with a note to every customer.
• Quick block: mark yourself unavailable in three taps.
• Out-of-area demand capture: see which zip codes keep asking for you, and let them leave an email for when you expand.
• Fix a typo'd email or phone on any booking and re-send the confirmation.
• Arrival windows: show customers a window ("2:00 – 4:00 PM") instead of an exact time.Pro
• Running-late shift: push the rest of a day back and notify everyone at once.Pro
• Waitlist: fully-booked days offer a signup, and cancellations automatically invite the next in line.Pro

July 3, 2026

• Service zones: group zip codes into areas and serve each on set days and time windows — customers only see times for their area, so your day stays batched instead of criss-crossing town.Pro
• Dynamic zone lock: the first booking of a day can claim it (or a travel-buffered window) for its area.Pro
• Daily route sheet: the day's stops grouped by zone, with call, map, and turn-by-turn directions links.

June 27, 2026

• Partner program: marketers get invite links and a portal that tracks clicks, signups, and earnings.
• A feedback button on every page — tell us what's broken or what you wish existed.

June 22, 2026

• Multiple appointment reminders — send, say, a 24-hour and a 1-hour reminder instead of just one.Pro
• Free and Pro tiers finalized: Free keeps the essentials (bookings, reminders, day tools); Pro adds the leverage (recurring visits, digests, CRM, custom questions, branding removal).

June 17, 2026

• Pro subscription billing — upgrade to Pro for $12/month, cancel anytime.
