This article shows you whether or not you need to rebuild and submit an update of your app in the Play Store to keep push notifications working in your Android app .

Do you use our Couponing add-on ? So you're going to be particularly interested in what's new this month. If you are not yet a user, they should definitely convince you!

These new features concern the back office and will radically simplify the way you manage and analyze your discount coupons:

- new sorting options:
On the Business > Couponing > My Coupons page, until today you could sort your coupons based on their validity and expiration dates. From now on you can also sort them by:

• Their number of uses (Most used)
• Shops

- a new management page:
You can find the Business > Couponing > My Redeemed Coupons page which allows you to view the list of coupons used, by whom, in which shop, and on what date.

During the crucial time it takes your app to open you could lose the attention of your users. Even though your GoodBarber app or PWA is build to launch quickly, you shouldn't overlook the importance of this General Design section : the Splashscreen.

It allows you to display an image, message or logo while your app is launching therefore catching the eye of your users and improving your chances to keep them interested until your content is displayed.

As you can see it is essential to take the time to perfect your Splash screen, its content as much as its design. If the content falls onto your creativity, we are putting our best features forward to help you with the design. Nowadays with so many different devices on the market, it is difficult to imagine and picture how your Splash screen will adapt to various screen sizes. We are now proposing different options to preview your splashscreen.

GoodBarber 4.7 main goal is CMS (Content Management System) improvement. In the version 4.7 , CMS was designed for a smooth, efficient content management, no matter the content volume of the app.

We’ve also implemented a new way to preview your app. With the idea in mind to keep a visually clean interface, only the smartphone format is available from the back office. If you want to preview your app in all the available formats  (mobile, tablet or desktop) click on the preview link (top right).

You’re already enjoying all the benefits of GoodBarber 4.7 but if you are interested in learning more about this new version, don’t hesitate to read this article.

You can find a summary of the developments and updates made during January, 2019 below

GoodBarber 4.7 will be published on January 29th for all users to take advantage of upgrades available with this new version.

For a few months now, a group of users have been able to already use GoodBarber 4.7. We decided to launch the new version through different stages, which allowed us to offer you today a version of GoodBarber even more eye catching and efficient.

The main objective with GoodBarber 4.7 is the improvement of the CMS (Customer Management System).
GoodBarber was the first App Builder to offer to create content directly from an app BackOffice. If it seems obvious today, those who have an interest in App building understand how advanced this functionality was. Thanks to the CMS, content creators were able to reach an audience simply with an App. With GoodBarber 4.7, it is now even easier to manage Apps with high volume content.
