Improvements & Bug Fixes

New update for Homeworks, including an improvement and several bug fixes:

Improvements

• Billing: A failed add-on payment no longer locks the whole account right away. A banner on the billing page now shows which add-on failed and the deadline to fix it.

Bug Fixes

• Estimates: Estimate PDFs now generate correctly again. A sign-in issue was blocking PDF generation with an error for some accounts.
• Invoicing: Editing a past-due invoice no longer clears its Past Due status, so past-due totals stay correct in the app and the customer portal.
• Messaging: Registering a phone number for texting now correctly activates it, so messages such as upsell texts actually go out instead of silently failing.
• Calendar: Editing or deleting a recurring event no longer fails with an error, so changes to recurring events now save as expected.
• Emails: Emails now check both unsubscribe settings before sending, so customers who unsubscribed under the older setting no longer receive emails.
• Messaging: Text messages no longer show stray character codes in place of punctuation and apostrophes, so message text reads as intended.
• Messaging: Text messages now go through one shared sending path, so sending rules like opt-outs apply consistently to every message, including upsells.
• Automations: Reminder emails and texts for a visit no longer send after that visit is cancelled, so customers stop getting reminders for visits that no longer exist.
• Billing: If your account expires, a new recovery page lets you resume your existing plan by updating your payment method and paying the outstanding invoice, instead of starting over with a duplicate subscription.
