Weekly Update #16

Save Time with Message Templates
Effortlessly create, edit and delete message templates for bulk messages to streamline your communication process.
New Filter: "Last Conversation At"
Introducing a new filter to easily track the timing of your latest interactions and gain valuable insights into your communication history with contacts.
Add "country" and "region" in JSON/CSV Export
Include
country
(eg. "France") information and additional
region
(eg. "Greater Paris Metropolitan Region") in your exported JSON/CSV contact files.
Fix Delete Tag UI
Resolved a display issue where the tags dropdown overlapped the modal on delete confirmation, ensuring smooth navigation without visual obstructions.
Database Cleanup
Optimized the database to significantly improve filter and sorting efficiency, resulting in a smoother and more streamlined experience for organizing and filtering contacts and conversations.
Improved Features:
  • Location Filter
    : Enhanced accuracy when filtering by location.
  • Search by Name
    : Improved accuracy in search results.
  • Position and Company Sorting
    : Addressed sorting functionality for effective organization based on position and company criteria.
Smarter Sorting Logic
We now implement a more user-friendly sorting logic. The first click on a column sorts the data ascending (A -> Z), while subsequent clicks reverse the order (Z -> A).
Additionally, some sorting now apply to synced profiles only, which avoids empty cells from being listed.
Tooltip for Connections Count Difference
You may have noticed the slight difference between the number of connections on LinkedIn and Poked. We want to be transparent with you about this difference, so we have implemented a tooltip. When you hover over the total connection count displayed in your profile, you will see an explanation for the connection count disparity between both platforms. Spoiler: the LinkedIn count is not quite right!
