Last updated
A weekly roundup of everything CoverGuard has shipped for you — new features, sharper workflows, and the fixes that matter most — in one place, without leaving the app.
Who this is for: Everyone who uses CoverGuard. Where: the What's new section of the Help Center (/help#release-notes), with the latest release also shown on the sign-in page and pinned in your notifications (the bell, top-right). Time: ~2 min.
Why this matters
CoverGuard ships improvements continuously. The What's New feed is how you keep up: it rolls each week's changes into a single plain-language digest — the new features and improvements, plus the critical, high-priority fixes — so you notice a new tool the week it lands instead of stumbling on it months later. Routine, behind-the-scenes fixes are summarized as a count rather than listed, so the digest stays focused on what actually matters to you. No changelog to hunt down, no engineering jargon to decode.
How to open it
- From your notifications: the newest weekly release is pinned at the top of the bell menu (top-right) and counts as unread until you open it. Click it to jump straight to that release in the Help Center. Once you've opened it (or used Mark all read), it shows as read on every device you sign in on.
- On the sign-in page: the Latest release card shows this week's headline and what shipped. Read the release notes opens that release in the Help Center in a new tab, so you don't lose what you've typed.
- From the Help Center: open
/helpand click the What's new link under the search box — it opens the latest release straight away — or scroll to the What's new section (/help#release-notes). No sign-in required.
The sign-in page, your notifications and the Help Center link all show the same release: the one at the top of the Help Center list. That's usually a hand-written highlights week. When a newer week has been gathered automatically, they switch to that week a moment after the page loads. In your notifications, that newer week shows as unread until you open it, even if you'd already read the one before.
A link to a specific release (it ends in #release- and the week's date) opens the feed on that release, highlighted, with its full details already open. Otherwise, read the latest releases newest-first.
What you'll see
- One row per week, newest first, three at a time. Each row shows the week, its headline, and a quick tally of what shipped — for example "5 new · 5 improved · 5 fixes" — so you can scan months of releases in a few seconds.
- Curated highlights usually lead the list: the most recent weeks are hand-written into plain-language notes (marked with a Highlights tag) so the top reads as product news rather than raw change titles. Other weeks are gathered automatically and sit in date order with them, so a week that hasn't been written up yet can appear above the latest highlights.
- Only the changes that matter are counted: new features (new), workflow improvements (improved) and critical, high-priority fixes. Routine, behind-the-scenes fixes are left out of the tally.
Click any row for the full story. Every row opens a detailed review of that week: a one-paragraph summary, a "closer look" walk-through of the headline features (what shipped, why it matters, and a Try it link straight to the feature where there is one), the complete list of new, improved and high-priority items, and — for the automatically-gathered weeks — every smaller update with its link. Close it to return to the list.
Use Prev and Next to page through the history — the footer shows which weekly releases you're viewing and the total. A week with nothing new or urgent to report is skipped.
Get it by email
When new release notes are published, CoverGuard sends you one short email — the headline, a sentence or two on what's new, and a See what's new button that opens the release notes in the Help Center. It never lists every change; the Help Center page is where the full notes live. It goes out once per release, on Sunday, as soon as that week's notes are published (never overnight, US time).
Don't want it? Open Account → Notifications and turn off What's New updates. That stops the email only — the notes stay in the Help Center.
Tips
- Look at the tally first: weeks with several new items are where you'll find features worth trying today.
- Check back after you've been away for a while — paging through a few screens is the fastest way to catch up on what changed.
Troubleshooting / Common questions
- "I didn't get the What's New email." → It only goes out once a week's release notes are published (usually Sunday afternoon, US time), and it skips you if What's New updates is off under Account → Notifications. You can always read the latest at
/help#release-notes. - "The feed is empty or won't load." → It refreshes periodically; give it a moment and reload
/help#release-notes. If live updates can't be refreshed, the hand-written highlights still show. - "The latest release changed while I was looking at it." → CoverGuard shows the newest hand-written release straight away, then switches to a newer, automatically gathered week once it has checked for one. The release it settles on is the one at the top of the Help Center list.
- "There's a new release in my notifications, but I just read one." → A newer week has arrived since. Open it, or use Mark all read, and it shows as read on every device.
- "Where did What's New go on my Account page?" → It moved. The latest release now appears on the sign-in page and in your notifications, and the full history lives in the Help Center.
- "The release in my notifications is still marked unread on my other device." → Read state follows your account, so reload the page on that device and it will catch up. If CoverGuard couldn't be reached when you opened the release, the device you opened it on remembers it and shares it with your other devices the next time you load CoverGuard there.
