Release Notes & Details

September 16, 2025 - 🌐 Web App (Browser Version)


🐞 Improvements:


  • Informative Placeholders

If your profile is new or a page is still empty, we now show helpful tips. These "placeholder texts" explain what to expect on that page and how to get started. For example, you might see: "When an admin adds you to events, you'll see them here." This helps prevent any confusion.






August 25, 2025 - ⚠️ Important: New Invitation Links

As of August 25, all Gumb community invitation links have been updated.


What changed? Every community now has a new link. Old links may no longer be valid or work as expected.


What do I need to do? As an admin, you should check all places where you've shared your community link (e.g., on your website or in chats) and replace it with the new one. Members don't need to do anything.


Where can I find the new link?

  1. Open Community Settings (gear icon ⚙).
  2. Go to the Members tab.
  3. In the "Invite by Link" section, click "Copy Community Link."

If you manage multiple communities, you must check each link individually.






August 20, 2025 - 🌐 Web App (Browser Version)


🆕 New:

  • Member Matrix
    The popular Matrix feature has been moved to a more prominent and easily accessible location. With just one click, you can quickly add or remove members from teams or communities - perfect for season changes or multiple assignments.

August 7, 2025 - 📱 Android App (Version 2.0.87)


We've made numerous background improvements, technical updates, and minor bug fixes. Here are a few highlights:


🐞 Improvements:

  • Simplified Event Responses
    Responding to events is now technically unified. This function was previously split across two different pages and has now been combined, which increases stability and reduces errors.
  • Optional Messages are now Visible
    When an admin updates an event with an optional message, it is now displayed prominently in both the "Notifications" and "Schedule" sections.
  • Improved Documents
    Uploading and downloading documents has been improved throughout the app.
  • Design Optimizations
    We've polished the user interface in several areas, including "Notifications" and the event editing screens.
  • Translations
    Translations have been improved across all 6 supported languages.
  • Additional Technical Updates
    Numerous internal updates, such as SDK updates, ensure better overall performance.





July 29, 2025 - 🌐 Web App (Browser Version)


🆕 New:

  • 2 Custom Text Fields in Member Profile
    You (or your admin) can now add two custom text fields to your user profile. Easily include any information like your employee ID, player number, or social security number (Switzerland). The best part? This data will also be included in the "Attendance Control" statistics report, which is especially useful for Swiss Sports "J+S" managers! 🤗






🐞 Improvements:

  • Design Polish
    We've refined the design in several areas. For instance, when creating a new community (team, department, club, etc.), you'll now find emojis for event types and response options. Of course, you can customize these emojis to make your planning more vibrant and easier for your members to read.






July 18, 2025 - 🌐 Web App (Browser Version)


🆕 New:

  • Sort Community Order
    Are you part of multiple communities? You can now easily customize your personal community order using drag-and-drop. Simply move your communities (teams, organizations, clubs) up or down to arrange them exactly how you prefer.







🐞 Improvements:

  • Language
    We've optimized the automatic detection of user language. When you create a new Gumb account, your country's language (based on your IP address) will now be automatically set. Alternatively, your internet browser's default language will be used. Within the app, you can still switch between the 6 supported languages at any time (English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, and Russian).
  • Design
    We've made several minor interface improvements to the "Create Event" section, along with other technical optimizations.





July 1, 2025 - 🌐 Web App (Browser Version)


🐞 Fixes & Improvements

  • Statistics Bug Fixed
    We've corrected the statistics display under "My Events" in your user profile.
  • Deleting a Community
    The community deletion function has been revised. As an owner, you can now delete your community in "Community Settings - Other." You might need to wait 3–5 seconds or simply refresh the page.
  • Removing/Adding Members to a Community
    We've fixed an error that sometimes occurred when admins removed a member from a community. A removed member's user account remains active, allowing them to continue participating in other communities. You can easily re-add them later using the Matrix feature or their email address under "Add User."
  • "Attendance Control" Download
    We've fixed an error that sometimes occurred when admins removed a member from a community. A removed member's user account remains active, allowing them to continue participating in other communities. You can easily re-add them later using the Matrix feature or their email address under "Add User."
  • Translations in 6 Languages
    We've optimized, shortened, and refined the translations across all 6 supported languages: English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, and Russian. These improvements will also roll out to the mobile apps (Android & iOS) in the coming months.





June 18, 2025 - 🌐 Web App (Browser Version)


🐞 Fixes & Improvements

  • Design polish
    We cleaned up visual details like spacing, colors, and lines—especially under “My Events” and in Documents. Click interactions also feel snappier now.
  • Community Matrix
    Bug fix: Admins can no longer move members in communities with inactive subscriptions.
    Plus: More under-the-hood improvements for stability.





June 10, 2025 - 🌐 Web App (Browser Version)


🆕 Helpful Tooltips & Slicker Design

  • We've added more info icons that now do an even better job of explaining what a feature does or what a button means. Just hover your mouse over them and a short, helpful tip will pop up! For instance, in the Schedule and Group Planner, you'll instantly see that a "white field" means a member won't see that specific event.
  • We've also improved the design of these tips, and we'll be adding even more of these handy tooltips to the web version in the coming weeks!
  • Plus, we've made some minor visual improvements to the user interface on various pages.





May 14, 2025 - 🌐 Web App (Browser Version)


🐞 Improvements

  • Firefox Fixes
    We improved some layout issues that only affected Firefox users. Everything should now display as expected.
  • Email Mode 📧
    When selecting an event, the filter “Send notification when invitees respond with...” is now visible again - so you can better target who gets notified.
  • Heads-up: Using a browser translator?
    Please disable it for Gumb. We offer 6 supported languages you can select in your profile settings.
    Browser-based translation tools often cause layout issues or strange wording. We're working to improve compatibility - but for best results, use Gumb's built-in language options.

May 5, 2025 - 🌐 Web App (Browser Version)


🐞 Improvements

Optimized Email & Push Notifications

We fixed two issues:

  • In some cases, senders didn’t receive a push copy, even when “Send me a copy” was enabled.
  • After the recent chat update, selecting multiple recipients didn’t always work.

✅ Both bugs are now fixed.
Plus, we’ve improved background logic - and as a result:

  • Admins now see all events
  • Group leaders can view events from their team members





April 10, 2025 - 💬 CHAT is here!


🆕 With the new Gumb Chat, you can now message members directly - 1:1 or in group chats.


All-in-one: Communication + Scheduling.
After months of development and testing, this is a giant milestone. Gumb just became your all-in-one tool!


🔹 Web: Chat is live now
🔹 Mobile: Available once you’ve installed the latest app version


📱 Heads-up: Apple & Google roll out updates at different speeds - not everyone will see Chat at the same time.



What’s new?

  • ✉️ Direct Messages: 1:1 chats with members
  • 👥 Group Chats: Create chats for each community
  • 🔔 Push Notifications: for new messages
  • 📲 All in one app: chat and scheduling in one place

💡 Tip for Admins:
Previous chat groups were removed. You can now create new, flexible chat rooms per community.









March 28, 2025 - ⚡ Speed Update


🆕 Gumb is now up to 10x faster.

We’ve spent the past 6 months optimizing our backend and introducing a powerful new compression system:

  • 1 MB payloads are now just 100 KB
  • APIs are 2–3x faster

👉🏼 Whether you're on Web, Android, or iOS - you'll feel the difference.
