July 2026: Everything We Improved for You

Time tracking fixed · Sign-up rescued · App in full Spanish · AI Agent Gateway healthy

Our time-tracking API had gaps that could cost freelancers real, billable hours. We closed them — the underlying platform only shipped “coming soon” placeholders for several of these functions.

• No more lost sessions: Your active session can now be restored when the app restarts — it is no longer forgotten
• No more overwritten time: Starting a new session no longer silently discards a session that is still running
• Edit and delete: Time entries can finally be corrected or removed instead of being locked in forever
• Update-safe: Implemented as a separate module, so a future platform update cannot overwrite the fix

Our registration page lives at /authentication/, but outreach emails and older links pointed at /register/ — which returned a 404. Every one of those visitors hit a dead end.

• Permanent redirect: /register/ and common variants now lead straight to the sign-up page
• Referral credit preserved: The ?ref parameter survives the redirect, so affiliate and outreach attribution is no longer lost
• Prefilled email kept: Invited users still land with their email address filled in — one less step to complete

The design data behind our authentication page had been lost, leaving the login and registration forms unstyled and hard to use. We rebuilt the styling from scratch as a standalone module — independent of any page builder, so it cannot break the same way again.

Parts of the app kept falling back to English because certain interface texts were missing from the translation set — things like “Swipe left to switch role”. We supplied the missing texts, so the app now stays in Spanish throughout instead of switching languages mid-screen.

Several screens in the mobile app were calling server endpoints that simply did not exist — the requests ran into a 404 and the feature appeared broken with no explanation. We registered the missing endpoints, and those functions now respond as intended.

The “similar profiles” section used to fill empty space with generic suggestions that had nothing to do with the profile you were viewing. We removed the filler entirely.

• Genuine matches: Only profiles that actually match are shown — no padding
• No dead ends: When there is no match, you now get a useful link to the relevant regional hub instead of an empty block
• Better findability: Those hub links point to indexable pages, which helps profiles get discovered through search

Our agent gateway — the interface that lets AI agents search for freelancers, create jobs and handle escrow — was reporting a degraded connection to the marketplace. The cause turned out to be one of our own security rules blocking the gateway’s status check. We corrected the rule.

• Status: healthy: The marketplace connection reports operational again
• No data was at risk: The marketplace itself was never down — only its status check was being denied

Ahead of publishing the Validator app, we audited the project and tightened it up.

• Credentials secured: Access tokens and keys removed from version control and blocked from future commits
• Store-ready build: Production build configuration prepared in the format Google Play requires
• Permissions declared: The app now declares exactly what it uses — and no camera access, because it only displays QR codes rather than scanning them
