New site: a student course now lives at learn.boodoo.ai
We launched a student course at learn.boodoo.ai, with design and animation tracks, safety information, mentor support and enrolment, alongside the unchanged boodoo.ai. Signing in now works on this site too.
- Fixed
Schools can no longer be created or impersonated by just anyone
Previously any signed-in account could set up a school and send consent emails naming a child to a parent, using our name. Schools are now set up only by our team, with a named coordinator.
- New
New guides published for more businesses and languages
We added guides for restaurant ordering, invoicing, clinic booking, gym membership, salon booking, bakery ordering, event ticketing, garage booking, property management and real estate CRM, in Vietnamese, Thai, Filipino, Indonesian, Spanish, Portuguese, Hindi, Russian and English, plus a comparison guide on alternatives to Emergent in English and Arabic.
- Fixed
Stuck first builds now get your app's real first screen
If your first build finished on our 'Your app is being written' placeholder page, it is now repaired by building your actual first screen instead of giving up. Your app now opens with real content, not a placeholder.
- Fixed
Pricing cards no longer show a fake discount price
Plan and credit-pack cards used to show a struck-through 'was' price that nobody had ever actually paid, making a discount look bigger than it was. Now a struck-through price only appears next to a real coupon, with the full price shown by us.
- New
Buy a one-time credit pack where monthly plans don't work
In some countries, Google Play can't charge a monthly plan through a local carrier or wallet. You can now buy a one-time 100-credit pack there instead, so you're not stuck unable to pay.
