SDB Octopus OuderApp (Release 26.7.0)
Version 26.7.0 makes the information around child care considerably more complete. Planner comments can now be found directly on the day they relate to, a child's school details can be updated independently, and changes made by the back office to consent surveys are transparently visible. In addition, a number of reported issues have been resolved and the app has become more stable in several areas.
New features
- Planner comments in the day details: When the planner has left a comment on a care day, it is now shown in the details of that day. A marker in the calendar makes it immediately clear which days carry a comment, so important information about the care is not missed.
- Editing school, level and class in the child profile: A child's school details can now be updated directly from the child profile. The same form is used as when requesting a new traject or placement, which makes for a consistent experience.
- Insight into consent survey answers changed by the organisation: Back-office employees can change answers to consent surveys. The answer history now shows that an answer was changed, by whom and when. Deleted answers are reflected as well, so the status of every consent survey remains traceable.
- More detail on requests for a new placement (contract): Request overviews now also show the request date and the reason given, making the request history easier to follow.
Fixed bugs
- School selection when requesting a new placement (contract): When requesting a new traject, the list of schools is matched to the city that was entered, making the right school easier to find.
- Notice period when terminating a placement (contract): The notice period configured by the organisation was not taken into account when cancelling a traject. The earliest possible end date is now calculated based on this setting.
- Consent surveys after an answer has been deleted: When the back office removed a previously given answer entirely, this could result in an error. This situation is now handled correctly and the question can be answered again.
- Loading of the timeline: In certain cases the timeline could not be loaded due to incomplete data on photos and albums. The timeline is now resilient to this.
- Notification permission on Android: On Android devices the notification permission was in some cases denied without ever having been requested. Permission is now requested at the appropriate moment.
UI/UX
- Attention for urgent consent surveys: When consent surveys marked as urgent are still unanswered, an informative message on app start-up draws attention to them. The app remains fully usable throughout. The popup message will be shown again however, until the consent surveys are answered.
Improvements and technical updates
- Mandatory updates: From this version onwards it can be determined per release whether an update is mandatory. This helps ensure everyone is on a recent version, which matters for new functionality such as the renewed chat.
- Stability and logging behind the scenes: The handling of data from KIS has been made more robust in several places, and logging around sign-in and session renewal has been improved, which simplifies troubleshooting.
