Course lesson Transcript tab no longer disappears mid-playback

On some course lessons the Transcript tab could vanish after the video or audio started playing, even when a transcript existed — so you had to reload the page to read along.

Open any course lesson with a transcript (from Courses on your site), start playback, and the Transcript tab should stay available for the whole lesson.

TaxJar records tax refunds and adjustments correctly

If your account is connected to TaxJar, using Adjust collected tax (or issuing a refund/credit) on a purchase used to post a new sale in TaxJar instead of a refund. That could make your tax liability look higher than it should.

We now send those as TaxJar refunds linked to the original order, so tax decreases when you reduce or refund collected tax.

Stay signed in when opening Edit profile or Your dashboard from Coach

If you were already signed in on Simplero Coach and opened Edit profile, Your dashboard, or an Admin dashboard from the avatar menu, you could get sent to the login screen again. That should not happen — you now stay signed in and land where you intended.

Try it: while signed in on Coach, open your avatar menu → Edit profile or Your dashboard.

Login codes paste into all six boxes on iPhone

When you sign in with a one-time login code (or two-factor code) and use iPhone’s Enter code from Mail/Messages, the full six-digit code now fills every box — not just the first one. Same for paste and password-manager autofill.

Try it the next time you’re on the verification step: tap the suggested code from the keyboard, or paste, and the form should fill and continue.

Highlight drag handles stay connected on mobile

When you create or resize a highlight on a phone, the yellow drag handles sometimes floated away from the highlighted text — especially on multi-paragraph or blockquote selections. Handles now stay glued to the start and end of the highlight while you drag.

Try it in AI Chat or Coach: long-press to highlight, then drag the yellow markers to adjust the range.

Lesson transcripts show “Return to current position” again when you scroll away

When you watch a course lesson and scroll the transcript away from the sentence that’s playing, the floating Return to current position button is back — so you can jump back to the current spot with one click.

Open any course lesson with a transcript, start playback, scroll the transcript, and look for the button at the bottom of the transcript panel.

The accessibility checker now catches low-contrast text anywhere on your page

The Check accessibility panel now reviews the real colors on your page, not just your style guide's defaults — so it catches hard-to-read text set in custom colors and checks contrast the way visitors actually see it, including text placed over background images, videos, and gradients that's worth a second look by eye. Each result takes you straight to the element that needs fixing.

Open any page in the page builder, use the ⋯ menu, and choose Check accessibility.

Coach conversation search focuses the box when you open it

Opening Search conversations in Coach now puts your cursor in the search field right away — desktop modal and mobile pane — so you can start typing without an extra click.

Try it in Coach: open the conversation list → Search conversations.

Auto-named Coach chats lead with the useful words

New Coach conversations get titles that put the topic up front — so when you only see the first few words in the sidebar list, you can still tell chats apart (e.g. “Song: Try” instead of “Discussions about a song”).

Start a new chat in Coach; after the first messages, the auto-generated name should lead with the distinctive subject.

Claude Opus 5 in your AI chat

Anthropic's Claude Opus 5 is now available in the model selector — their new flagship for complex reasoning and long-horizon tasks. Look for Opus 5 in the Claude group. Opus 4.8 is still available under Other.

Try it in AI Chat or open any bot and pick Opus 5 from the model list.

Clear filter control in table sidebars is clearer

On list pages with a left filter sidebar (like Products), the clear control no longer looks like a close button. It only appears when a filter is selected, uses a clear-style icon, and shows a tooltip such as Clear Gives access to site filter so it’s obvious it clears that filter—not the whole sidebar.

Open any table with a sidebar, pick a filter value, then hover the circle-X to see the new tooltip.

Countdown timer "completed" automations now run right away

When a countdown timer finishes (including Instant Replay), automations that start on completed fire immediately instead of waiting up to a minute. Chained timers — e.g. finish Timer A and start Timer B so the thank-you page can show the right content — kick in without a refresh delay.

Manage timers under Countdown timers.

Clearer spacing on the “You’ve left the call” message

When you leave a Simplero Live event and the goodbye message wraps to two lines (common in some languages), the lines used to sit on top of each other. They now have comfortable spacing so the text is easy to read.

Share screen explains when it isn’t available on mobile

On phones and tablets, most browsers can’t share a screen during a Simplero Live call. Tapping Share screen used to do nothing. Now the button shows a clear warning (the same style as when camera or mic access is blocked) so you know to use a desktop browser if you need to present.

Captions button turns blue right away on mobile

On a phone or tablet, tapping the CC captions control in a Simplero Live stream now shows the active blue state immediately. Before, the tooltip could stick around and the button looked unchanged until you tapped somewhere else. Mic and other live controls get the same sticky-tooltip cleanup on touch devices.

Clearer error when an automation action is missing its automation

If you run Stop, Pause, Resume, or Continue automation on contacts without a valid automation selected, you'll now get a clear error instead of a failed request.

Scheduling link booking limits no longer block the host

When you set a limit on how many times a contact can book a scheduling link, the host (and other account admins previewing the page) were sometimes treated as if they had used up that limit — just from hosting meetings. Limits now only count the person who booked, so you can open your own booking page without getting redirected away.

Manage limits on any link under Scheduling links → open a link → Limit total times a contact can book.

Invite guests when someone books a call with you

Scheduling links can now let the person booking add extra guests. Turn it on per link under the link's settings ("Allow guests to be invited when booking"), and optionally cap how many guests they can add. When someone books, they'll see a "Guests" section where they can add each guest's name and email. Those guests are added straight to the calendar invite …

Lock your branded app's chat to your own community

Head to the settings for your branded mobile app and you'll find the chat control 'Enable chat' toggle. Switch chat on and a new 'Lock chat to my account' option appears — turn that on and everyone using your app only sees, searches for, and messages your own members, so the chat feels like its own private community.

Wait steps ends only on the weekdays you choose

Automation "wait" steps can now be limited to the exact weekdays you want — for example every day except Tuesday, or only on weekends.

Open a wait step, turn on "Specify day of week", and check the days you want.

Handy shortcuts (Weekdays, Weekends, All, None) let you set them in one click, so you can keep automated emails from landing on your busy days.
