Release Notes & Details

September 25, 2026 - 🌐 Web App (Browser Version) & πŸ”§ Backend: Invoicing and Subscription

Since the switch to Stripe in August, we have received a lot of feedback on invoices and checkout. A large part of it went live in September.

πŸ†• What's New

  • Purchase order reference on the invoice: When paying by invoice, you can add your own reference, such as a cost center or PO number. It appears directly on the invoice.
  • Manage invoice recipients yourself: Under Profile β†’ Subscription β†’ "Manage billing" you can see who receives the invoices and add more addresses, for example your treasurer.
  • Payment method reminder: If no payment method has been added yet, we remind the owner by email. That way your subscription continues without interruption.

πŸ› οΈ Improvements

  • Billing details are validated: Incomplete addresses or invoice fields are flagged clearly before checkout.
  • Correct invoice: Address and service period on the invoice now match your subscription exactly.
  • Canceled payment: Clearer feedback and correct return to the plan selection.

🐞 Fixes

  • Limit message during the trial: Adding members wrongly triggered a limit warning.
  • Duplicate events in series: Creating recurring events could produce individual duplicates.
  • PDF files: Event PDFs and invoice attachments occasionally arrived corrupted.
  • Event links in emails: Missing links are reliably generated again.

βš™οΈ Behind the Scenes

  • Various technical updates for more stability and security.

September 25, 2026 - 🍏 Apple iOS · Version 7.3.7

πŸ†• What's New

  • Profile like in the web app: Your profile now shows all details and can be edited directly in the app.

πŸ› οΈ Improvements

  • My Events: Filter page reworked.
  • Community page: Details view redesigned.

  • Event created: Details now refresh automatically.
  • Limit message during the trial: Appeared incorrectly, removed.

  • Member profile: A second tap on a photo jumped to your own profile.

βš™οΈ Behind the Scenes

  • Brought technically up to date, ready for iOS 26.

What you need to do: Update Gumb in the App Store to version 7.3.7. If automatic updates are enabled, this happens on its own.

September 24, 2026 - 🌐 Website gumb.app

βš™οΈ Behind the Scenes

September 1, 2026 - 🍏 Apple iOS · Version 7.3.6

πŸ†• What's New

  • Redesigned subscription area: The entire subscription section has been reworked. You can see at a glance which plan is active, how long it runs, and what happens next, including in dark mode.
  • Invoice as a payment method: You can now settle your subscription by invoice instead of by card, in Switzerland with a QR invoice. All details are in the entry from August 25.
  • Subscription notifications: You are now notified whenever something changes on your subscription. Tapping the notice takes you straight to the right place.
  • Sign in with Google, Apple, and Facebook: These options are now also available when creating an account, not only when signing in.

πŸ› οΈ Improvements

  • Subscription status always current: If something changes on your subscription, the view updates immediately without reloading the page.

  • Reliable notification counters: The number of unread notices and the icon in the bottom menu are now consistently correct.
  • Links work everywhere: Links in descriptions and messages now behave the same across the app and can be opened directly.
  • Haptic feedback: Selected actions now give the haptic feedback you know from iOS.

βš™οΈ Behind the Scenes

  • Stability and polish: Numerous bug fixes, minor interface adjustments, and technical optimizations for a more stable app.

What you need to do: Update Gumb in the App Store to version 7.3.6. If automatic updates are enabled, this happens on its own.

August 25, 2026 – 🌐 Web App (Browser Version): New Payment Provider and Invoice as a Payment Method

We have switched our payment provider from PayPal to Stripe. The change brings you more payment methods and invoices you can find directly in your profile.

πŸ†• What This Means for You

  • Your subscription continues unchanged - Same price, same term, same renewal date. The only thing that changes is how the payment is processed.
  • Add your payment method again - As the owner of a community, you add your payment method once at Stripe. You can do this yourself at any time under Subscription.

Once that is done, we will end your old PayPal subscription. PayPal will send you a confirmation - there is nothing else you need to do.

πŸ†• What's New

  • Payment by invoice - You can now settle your subscription by invoice instead of by card. Simply select "Invoice" at checkout.
  • QR invoice for Switzerland - Invoices in Swiss francs come with a payment part and a QR code. Scan the code in your e-banking or banking app and the payment details are filled in for you.
  • Invoice and receipt as PDF - You receive both documents by email. The receipt marked "Paid" is ready for your bookkeeping.
  • Invoice overview in your profile - You can find all invoices at any time under Subscription. From there you can download and forward them.

πŸ› οΈ Improvements

  • 30-day payment term - You have one month to settle the invoice. Your subscription is active from checkout, no matter when you pay.
  • Multiple invoice recipients - You can specify who should receive the invoices. That way the invoice goes straight to your treasurer, even if the subscription runs under someone else's name.

August 24, 2026 – πŸ“± Android App Β· Version 2.0.94

πŸ†• What's New

  • Redesigned subscription area: The entire subscription section has been reworked. You can see at a glance which plan is active, how long it runs, and what happens next.
  • New guidance dialogs: When you start, switch, or renew a subscription, new clearly worded dialogs walk you through each step.

πŸ› οΈ Improvements

  • Reworked sharing: Sharing content now works consistently and reliably everywhere in the app.
  • Calmer look: Background colors and many small details have been adjusted. The app feels tidier and more consistent.

βš™οΈ Behind the Scenes

  • Ready for the latest Android version: Gumb has been technically updated to Android 16. The app stays stable on new devices and meets Google Play's current requirements.
  • Preparing new payment options: Part of today's changes belongs to our larger project around subscription billing - including the option to pay for Gumb by invoice. More on that soon. πŸš€

What you need to do: Update Gumb in the Google Play Store to version 2.0.94. If automatic updates are enabled, this happens on its own.

July 27, 2026 – 🌐 Website gumb.app (Landing Page & Support Center)

πŸ› οΈ Improvements

  • Faster loading times: gumb.app and the Support Center load noticeably faster - especially on mobile.
  • Stronger security: We upgraded the website from Next.js 12 to Next.js 15. It now runs on the latest technical foundation and receives ongoing security updates again.
  • Better display: Images, guides, and screenshots load cleaner - even on a slow connection.

What's next?

Over the coming weeks we'll renew gumb.app step by step - technically as well as visually: fresh design, revised content, new pages. It all happens in the background, you don't need to do anything. Web App, Android, and iOS are not affected.

Spot something that isn't displayed correctly? Just drop us a line at support@gumb.app. πŸ™

July 14, 2026 – πŸ“§ Email Feature (sending: Web App)

πŸ› οΈ Improvements

  • Direct replies instead of no-reply: Many members were replying to the no-reply address β€” and those messages went nowhere. Fixed: Gumb emails now include a Reply-To header with the admin's address. When a member clicks Reply, their response goes straight to the sender.
  • Updated notice banner: Every Gumb email now displays the sender's address and a "Reply directly" button β€” making it immediately clear how to reach the sender.
  • Members nudged to use Gumb directly: The banner now reminds members to skip the email reply altogether β€” open Gumb, go to the Scheduler, and react or comment directly on the event. Faster for everyone, and less back-and-forth email for you as admin.

July 6, 2026 – πŸ“± Android App Β· Version 2.0.93

🐞 Improvements

  • Password reset link now works reliably – Reset links sent by email now open correctly on Android. Previously, tapping the link in certain mail apps (e.g. GMX, Gmail) launched a restricted in-app browser that couldn't complete the Cognito authentication flow, leaving accounts stuck and showing "Something went wrong." Update to version 2.0.93 to resolve this.

June 29, 2026 – 🌐 Web App: PDF Export of an Appointment

🐞 Improvements

  • Exporting an appointment as a PDF works again. In the scheduler, open an appointment’s menu and choose β€œExport as PDF” to download it. This had stopped working for a few weeks while we focused on other tasks – it’s now fixed and fully working again.
Export an appointment as PDF

June 10, 2026 – πŸ“§ Email Function (Temporary Disruption)

Over the past few days, Gumb's email function was temporarily affected – both manual email sending and the automated delivery of statistics exports were impacted.

The cause was an automated abuse attempt targeting the email system. We responded by activating additional protection measures, which fully resolved the issue today.

What this means for you:

  • All email functions are now running fully and reliably again.
  • No data loss – all statistics and content remain fully intact.

June 4 – 🌐 Web App (Browser version)

πŸ› οΈ Improvements

  • Email Function πŸ“§: Recipient Limit – The "Additional recipients (separate with comma)" field is now capped at 100 addresses. This improves deliverability and helps prevent emails from being flagged as spam.

June 3, 2026 – ⚠️ Service Disruption (approx. 5 hours)

On 3 June, Gumb was unavailable from approximately 18:20 to 23:30 CEST (16:20 to 21:30 UTC). Both the web app and mobile apps were affected.

The cause was an infrastructure-level issue. From around 22:30 CEST (20:30 UTC), access was gradually restored - by 23:30 CEST (21:30 UTC), the platform was fully back online. No data was lost - all content remains fully intact.

We have taken internal steps to further improve stability and prevent similar incidents in the future.

May 11, 2026 – πŸ“± Android App (Version 2.0.92)

πŸ†• What's New

  • Apple Login – You can now sign in to Gumb using your Apple account.

  • Profile Picture – More options are now available when uploading a profile picture: camera, gallery, and more.
  • Email Check at Login – Before the login process starts, your email address is now validated right away β€” you'll immediately see if it's registered with Gumb.

πŸ› οΈ Improvements & Bug Fixes

  • Stats – The statistics section has been redesigned with a cleaner UI and more filtering options.
  • 1-Character Responses & Event Titles – Response options and event titles can now be created with just a single character β€” matching the web app and iOS.
  • Scheduler: Your Row, Easy to Find – Your own row in the member scheduler is now more prominently highlighted so you can spot it at a glance.
  • Links in Descriptions – Links inside event and other descriptions are now tappable β€” everywhere in the app.
  • Autofill / Password Manager – When you fill in your credentials via Autofill, the login button now activates immediately.
  • Error Messages – Errors are now shown clearly and immediately when you confirm an input β€” with helpful guidance on what to do next.
  • Birthday – Fixed a bug where birthdays were displayed incorrectly in the profile.
  • Participant Data on Event Changes – Removing participants from an event no longer affects the data of members who are still part of it.
  • Default Responses – Events created with default response options are now working correctly and as expected.

  • πŸ’‘ Tip: For better readability, we recommend short, clear labels with emojis - like "Yes βœ…" instead of just "YES".

πŸ› οΈ Improvements & Bug Fixes

  • Import Events (Excel/CSV) - Special characters and umlauts (Γ€, ΓΆ, ΓΌ, etc.) now display correctly when importing events.

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

Where can I find the new link?

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

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

    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.

    Uploading and downloading documents has been improved throughout the app.

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! πŸ€—

🐞 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)

πŸ†• New:

  • Sort Community Order

🐞 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.

🐞 Fixes & Improvements

  • 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 problems downloading the "Attendance Control" statistics report for data-heavy teams and communities.
  • 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 linesβ€”especially under β€œMy 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)

πŸ†• 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)

    We improved some layout issues that only affected Firefox users. Everything should now display as expected.
  • Email Mode πŸ“§
    When selecting an event, the filter β€œSend 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.

🐞 Improvements

Optimized Email & Push Notifications

We fixed two issues:

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

βœ… 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 - πŸ’¬ CHAT is here!

πŸ†• 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!

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

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

  • πŸ‘₯ Group Chats: Create chats for each community
  • πŸ”” Push Notifications: for new messages
