We’ve been working behind the scenes to make the Octopus OuderApp just a little more convenient and enjoyable to use. This update introduces an often‑requested improvement for parents with multiple accounts, along with a few practical refinements and bug fixes. Read on to see what’s new!

NEw features

• Easily switch between multiple accounts

  Do you use multiple accounts to log in to your childcare organisation? Or do you have accounts at more than one childcare organisation?

  With this release, switching between accounts has become much easier. Depending on the software used by your childcare organisation, you can now add multiple logged‑in accounts to the app and switch between them without having to log out and go through the onboarding process each time.

  For security reasons, you will still be asked to enter your PIN code or authenticate using biometrics when logging in and each time you switch to another account.

  You can find the option to add and switch accounts on the Profile page, just above the Log out button.

• Faster access to the latest timeline updates
  When you are on the Home tab, tapping the Home tab again will now refresh the timeline and automatically scroll back to the top. This makes it easier to quickly see the latest updates about your child.

Solved Bugs

• The names of days on the same confirmation screen were displayed based on the device language instead of the app language, which could result in a mix of languages. This has now been fixed.
• A bug that prevented videos from being shown on the timeline has been resolved.
