Groove Updates: Email Bug Fixes & New Infrastructure Deployment

Groove has been busy working on improving its platform, addressing bugs, and deploying new features, including a new infrastructure update. This update brings improvements to user onboarding, fixing bugs related to email notifications and widgets, and more. However, the infrastructure deployment has been delayed due to unexpected hiccups.

Email Label Issues Resolved

A recent simplification in widget settings accidentally caused labels to disappear for some customers. This impacted how emails were tagged and organized. The good news is that the issue has been fixed, and all email labels are now working as expected.

• The problem was caused by a change in the way widget settings were handled.
• The bug resulted in missing labels for certain emails.
• The issue has been fixed, and all email labels are now restored.

Notifications from Private Email Accounts

While Groove is increasingly used to manage personal emails, a bug was found that caused other team members to receive notifications for private emails. This issue has now been resolved.

• Groove users can now move personal emails into the platform.
• A bug caused notifications for private emails to be sent to the wrong team members.
• The issue has been fixed, and notifications are now only sent to relevant users.

Streamlined Onboarding with Simplified Email Settings

The new settings dashboard was designed to give customers more control over their Groove accounts. However, some new users experienced issues with the abundance of options. To address this, the onboarding process has been simplified, providing new users with only essential settings at first.

• The new settings dashboard aimed to simplify email management.
• New users found the numerous options overwhelming.
• Onboarding has been updated to show only necessary settings to new users.

Infrastructure Deployment Delayed

The deployment of Groove's new infrastructure has been delayed due to a last-minute change in instance size. This change caused performance issues, making certain tasks take much longer than expected.

• A last-minute change to the infrastructure caused performance issues.
• Tasks that normally took minutes now took over 20 minutes to complete.
• The deployment has been delayed while the issue is resolved.

Ongoing Improvements & Future Developments

Despite the delay, Groove continues to work on improving its platform, resolving bugs, and implementing new features. The team is committed to ensuring a smooth and efficient user experience for all customers.

• Groove is continuously improving its platform to provide the best experience.
• The team is actively working on resolving remaining bugs and issues.
• The new infrastructure will be deployed soon after the current problem is fixed.
