⏱️ Live dashboard time ranges
The dashboard date picker now includes a "Live" time range option. Live ranges apply without a fixed end date, so your dashboards always reflect the current day's data automatically — no need to manually extend the period to stay up to date.
🗺️ Standalone Areas redesign in Dashboard Manager
Managing standalone areas is now aligned with the Dashboard Areas experience. You can adjust a standalone area directly, and replacing an area is locked to its type (a grid can only be swapped for a grid, a hub for a hub, and so on) to prevent mismatches. Open a dashboard → ⋮ → Manage Dashboard → Areas → Standalone areas to preview, replace, or adjust an area. Changes apply only to the charts using that area — shared dashboard areas stay as they are.
📍 Refreshed points of interest across the Nordics
We've refreshed the platform with the newest Google locations across the Nordic countries, keeping competitive-situation and catchment analyses aligned with what's actually on the ground.
🔍 Improved Platform Search
The platform search has been overhauled. A new 'All' tab consolidates results across resource types and surfaces your recently visited profiles and resources. The searchable index has also been extended to cover more entity types — easier to jump straight to what you need.
📐 Apply Dashboard Areas to Widgets
When adding an area widget to a compare-location dashboard, you'll now be prompted to either keep the widget's area or apply the dashboard's areas. If the dashboard already contains widgets with standalone areas, you can sync them to the dashboard area. A new Manage Dashboard Areas tab lets you view and edit both dashboard and standalone areas in one place.
🆘 Unified "Get Help" Modal
Support and bug reporting are now behind a single Get Help entry point in the bottom-left of the platform. The modal offers two clear paths: Ask a question (opens Intercom chat) and Report issues (opens the Usersnap screenshot tool). The team is available to assist if needed!
