✨ indicates changes to the participant experience

πŸ“ indicates changes to the creator/admin experience

January 2026

  • πŸ“βœ¨ Creators can now Task activities. Participants can check off a "task" as an activity, making it easier to guide learners through multi-step processes like preparation steps, equipment setup, or follow-up action items.

  • πŸ“βœ¨ The email editor now supports Task activity blocks. Include task completion status and participant notes in your follow-up emails, showing who completed tasks (βœ”οΈ) and any notes they submitted.

  • πŸ“βœ¨ Creators now have more control over how poll results are displayed. Choose between circle charts (great for showing proportions at a glance) or bar charts (better for comparing specific values across options).

  • πŸ“ We've added smarter email validation when adding participants. This catches typos and invalid email formats, increasing the likelihood of quality email addresses in attendance reports and helping the participant get their post-experience email.

  • ✨ Fixed a bug where participants had difficulty advancing past audio activities that failed to load.

  • ✨ Emails have had a design refresh.
