Multi-select shifts
On desktop, drag a box across the schedule to select several shifts at once, the same way you select files on your computer. A running count follows your cursor, and the grid keeps scrolling when you reach an edge, so you can sweep across weeks or whole months. A plain drag starts a new selection, or holdShift or ⌘ to add to what you already picked. Press Escape to cancel. When you let go, the bulk-actions bar takes over, so you can copy or move them all in one go. It works in the Week and Month views.June 2026
Little big updates
A round-up of what shipped this month: inline document previews, refreshed timesheets, faster people management, and a batch of fixes and smaller improvements.Document previews
Word, Excel, and CSV files now preview inline in a message or post, so you no longer download a file just to see what’s in it. The .docx, .xlsx, and .csv formats are covered; older .doc and .xls files still download.Timesheets, refreshed
Timesheets scroll smoothly with sticky day and group headers, so you keep your bearings in a long list. Press1, 2, or 3 to switch between Day, Week, and Month, and the clearer Day and Week labels make it obvious which view you’re in.Faster people management
The People list has an always-visible select-all row and a bulk-actions bar, so acting on several people at once is easy to find. Searching the command palette (⌘K) now shows names instantly instead of waiting on slower results.June 2026
