The whole workspace, redesigned
v2.192.0
- NewOverview, Monitors, the monitor page, Incidents, Maintenance, Alerting, Status pages, Servers, API monitors, Reports and Insights now share one design, in light and dark and in both the Glass and Solid styles.
- NewThe home page and pricing page have a new look. Pricing starts on monthly billing, and only workspace owners and admins can change the plan.
- NewReports: see every report that went out and whether it arrived, retry a failed one, share a report with a private link that expires after 30 days, and send yourself a copy.
- NewMonitor settings are one board: every check with its switch, a search box to find any setting, and a side panel for the details. Changes save as you make them, with Undo.
- NewMaintenance windows can repeat, and you can cancel a window or skip a single occurrence.
- NewAlert rules can cover every site at once, and the notification inbox filters by outages, recoveries, changes, certificates and servers.
- NewStatus pages: upload a logo, a dark-mode logo and a favicon, see, remove and export your subscribers, and choose how far back past incidents are shown.
- NewServers that stop reporting are now flagged within minutes, network traffic shows as a rate, and each server alert shows which channels it reached.
- NewAPI monitors can check response headers and the status code as well as the body, GraphQL monitors keep their query, and checks read the whole response.
- NewInsights: uptime and speed trends, unusual patterns with a plain explanation, and an AI summary of your week.
- FixThe Starter plan now includes every alert channel the Solo plan has.
A new incidents page
v2.191.0
- NewIncidents now open with a summary, filters for status, severity, site and time, and the list grouped by day with ongoing problems first.
- NewEach alert has its own page: every check from the last three hours per region, what we found and what to do next, who was told and whether it reached them, and one place to acknowledge, mute or close it.
- NewIncidents your team reports by hand get a page with a progress stepper, updates and a preview of how they appear on your status page.
- FixReporting an incident from a monitor page with some severity choices no longer fails.
Monitors list spacing
v2.190.2
- FixThe monitors list no longer leaves a large empty space under the summary cards when a filter matches only a few sites.
Every tab on the monitor page, rebuilt
v2.190.0
- NewPerformance, Visual, Content and SSL and DNS each open with four summary cards and the detail underneath: the phone speed score and where the time goes, what screenshots cover and what changed, word checks and a tampering score for every content change, and the certificate, domain, DNS records and redirects in one place.
- NewPick which parts of a page to watch or ignore by clicking them in a preview. It works for both content checks and screenshots, and you can still type a CSS selector.
- NewDomain renewal reminders can be snoozed for 7 or 30 days. A renewal ends the snooze, and an expired domain always alerts.
A new monitor page
v2.189.0
- NewEach site now opens on one page: status, uptime over 30 days, response over 24 hours and the time to the next check at the top, then the response chart with alert markers you can click, the last check step by step, the latest checks, recent alerts and availability figures for any range.
- NewEvery check (uptime, response time, certificate, domain, visual, content, DNS) sits in the side panel with its settings in place. Switch one on or off, change its threshold or regions and it saves on the spot.
- ImprovedThe latest capture card shows the current screenshot, a slider against the approved one and when it last changed.
- FixCertificate details now include the signing algorithm, key size and the other names the certificate covers.
A tidier page header
v2.188.2
- ImprovedOn desktop, search, notifications and your account now sit in the page header, and the sidebar shows your plan with the sites you have used. The top bar stays on phones.
Adding a site takes one screen
v2.188.0
- NewAdding a site is one screen: paste the address, see the first check come back from Europe, switch off what you do not need, and start watching. Ports, ping, certificate-only, DNS-only and service monitors are one click away.
- NewAPI endpoints get a request editor (method, headers, body, sign-in), the status codes that count as working, and response checks you can add by clicking a value in the answer.
- FixPort checks created with a full web address no longer fail on the address itself.
A new Monitors list
v2.187.0
- NewThe Monitors page opens with four cards (what is down right now, which checks are on, your plan allowance, recently deleted) and one list of every site, as a table or as cards. Filter by state or tag, search, and sort worst first.
- NewSelect several sites to pause, resume, change their check settings, set alert channels, link them to a server, add tags or delete them in one go. Deleted sites can be restored for 24 hours.
- NewImport sites from Cloudflare, a CSV file or a pasted list of addresses, with the result shown before anything is added.
- FixA site you have just deleted no longer shows on your public status pages or badges while it can still be restored.
Phone menu fix
v2.186.1
- FixOn phones, the workspace menu is now presented as one dialog to screen readers and other assistive tools.
A new Overview
v2.186.0
- NewThe Overview now opens with four cards (what is down right now, 30-day uptime, 24-hour response time, alerts this week) and one list of every site. Each problem sits on its own row as a callout with the action next to it: acknowledge, mute for an hour, approve a visual change, check a certificate again.
- NewSites paused by your plan are marked as such, with a notice that says how many your plan checks and what to do.
- NewIf an alert channel stops accepting messages, the Overview says so and offers a test message.
- ImprovedComing up (certificate and domain renewals, maintenance, report sends) and Recent activity sit under the list.
Security update
