Changelog

Stimafy is in active development. We ship small improvements weekly and bigger features every few weeks. This page is reverse-chronological — the most recent updates are at the top.

May 2026

2026-05-19 — Mobile-first overhaul + payments groundwork

• Mobile navigation: tap the hamburger top-left to slide out the dashboard menu. Properties, Tenants, Readings, Invoices and Report a bug are all one tap away.
• Properties, Tenants, Readings and Invoices now render as readable cards on a phone — no more clipped columns or off-screen Edit buttons.
• Tenant assignment now shows an "Assigning tenant…" progress indicator so it's clear something is happening on slower connections.
• Free plan formalised: one property per account, with a friendly upgrade prompt when you're ready for more.
• Help & documentation pages added: see /help for guides on readings, WhatsApp invoices and FAQs.

2026-05-18 — Custom auth domain + email notifications

• Sign-in screen now reads "Sign in to auth.stimafy.online" instead of the long generic AWS domain — looks like you'd expect.
• Bug reports and contact-form submissions now send ticket-style confirmation emails to you and a notification to our support inbox, so nothing falls through the cracks.
• Custom domain live: stimafy.online. The old amplifyapp.com URL still works during the transition.

2026-05-17 — Report-a-bug + Talk-to-us forms

• New Report a bug form: paste the error, pick a severity, send. We auto-capture the page you were on, your browser version, and your account email so we don't have to ask.
• New Talk to us form for questions, feature requests, pricing chats — replies within one business day.
• Database keep-warm: dashboard loads are faster after periods of inactivity (we ping our DB every 4 minutes so it stays awake).

2026-05-16 — Legal pages + homepage polish

• Terms of Service, Privacy Policy and DPA pages now live — see the footer.
• Privacy framed under the Kenya Data Protection Act 2019, with AWS's Cape Town region as the data residency.
• Homepage cleaned up; sign-out from any page now works correctly.

End-to-end monthly billing cycle

• Readings: paste your KPLC monthly SMS to capture the real per-kWh rate, then enter previous/current sub-meter readings per unit.
• Bills: bills are auto-created when you save a reading for a unit with a tenant. Status moves draft → sent → paid.
• WhatsApp invoices: one-tap send opens WhatsApp with the full breakdown (previous reading, new reading, kWh used, rate, total).
• Reminders: bills that have been sent but not paid get a friendly reminder button. We track how many reminders you've sent and when.
• Dashboard: outstanding, collected, sent-awaiting, drafts — all computed from real data.

Properties, units, tenants

• Multi-unit properties with optional sub-meter numbers per unit.
• Tenants can be assigned and unassigned ("move out") without losing history.
• Phone + email per tenant; phone drives the WhatsApp link.

What's next

• M-Pesa & Stripe payments so paid plans self-serve instead of going through us.
• A "Capture via photo" flow that reads sub-meter digits directly — no more typing.
• A KPLC planned-outage banner so you can warn tenants ahead of scheduled interruptions.
