You can now configure multiple expiry warning periods simultaneously. Choose from 30, 60, and 90-day presets or set custom warning days. Receive alerts at every threshold so you never miss a licence renewal deadline.
We have added a comprehensive Help & Support section directly within your dashboard. Browse guides on CSV imports, licence checking, notifications, and more — all without leaving the app. A new Contact Us form lets you reach our support team instantly.
Add email addresses and mobile numbers to staff records for expiry notifications. Configure notification channels (email, SMS, or both) from the new Notifications tab in Settings. Staff without contact details can be easily updated via individual edit or CSV re-import.
Scan SIA licence cards directly from your phone or desktop webcam using our new camera-based scanning feature. The system reads the 16-digit licence number automatically and triggers an instant SIA register check.
Dashboard stat cards are now clickable — tap on "Expiring Soon" or "Expired" to jump directly to a filtered view of affected staff. Makes triaging compliance issues faster than ever.
