What's New in Deskdragon Change Log

5 December, 2026

  • Redesigned Agenda: your home screen is now a day-by-day agenda with Day, Week and Month views. Today shows your desk and check-in status, and every booking on a day shows up, not just one. You can say where you'll be on any day, hide weekends, and see how busy the office is and which teammates are in. The left menu ends with a live block for your usual building, "Stephen Street today", with free desks and who is in.
  • Redesigned booking screen: the controls now sit on the floor plan itself. Pick a building and floor from the pill at the top and switch between desks and parking with the rail on the left. One day strip runs from today to the last day you can book ahead. Pick several days and the map only shows desks that are free on all of them. If some days can't be booked, the panel tells you why, and nothing is booked until you sort it out. Tap a busy desk to see who has it and when, and ask to be alerted once it frees up. Editing a booking uses the same screen, with a date picker in place of the day strip.
  • Suggested booking times: Deskdragon learns your usual hours, per building and even per weekday, and offers them as one-tap time pills. Your profile shows what it has learned, and you can switch any of it off.
  • Office map: a live floor plan of who is in the office right now. Tap a free desk to book it for the rest of the day.
  • Filters and teams on the map: the filter button on the booking screen narrows the floor plan by amenity, such as a standing desk or dual monitors, or by zone. The people button chooses whose names show on the plan: your own teams are selected to start with, and you can add or clear teams from there.
  • Check-in: scan the check-in QR code with your phone or type it in by hand. Admins get a big display view for reception. Check-in works for the whole advertised window, a booking released for a missed check-in now says so, and you can end your own booking early.
  • Booking rules: admins on Plus and Premium can set who may book which resources and when: allowed days and hours, maximum duration, how far ahead, and limits per person. Aim a rule at everything, one resource type, or a zone of hand-picked resources, and at everyone or just some teams. Every booking fits within a single day now, so the old company-wide maximum booking duration in days has left Settings; set a maximum duration rule instead. Zones have their own admin page under Spaces, and each zone is drawn on the floor plan: tap resources to add them, or pick the lasso and drag across a row, with a list view a toggle away. When you pick a resource on the booking screen, open a booking, or look at your agenda, its zone shows after the floor.
  • Advance booking release: capacity limits are now a release schedule, so early planners can't fill the office weeks ahead and there is always room for last-minute bookings. Premium only.
  • Workspaces: buildings, floors and desks live together on one admin page. Create desks in bulk, add amenities, reserve a desk for a person or a team, set booking settings per building, and close a building for holidays with blocked dates. Select several desks at once to assign them to a team or add them to a zone, creating the zone on the spot if it doesn't exist yet.
  • New floor plan editor: the editor has been rebuilt. Draw, drag, resize and rotate shapes, group them, edit text in place, undo and redo, and trace over a background image. Create a desk or parking spot for the shape you have selected without leaving the editor, see which zones the selected resources belong to, send them to a zone from the same panel, and switch on an overlay that outlines every zone on the floor. If you would rather not draw it yourself, send us a PDF or image and we draw it for free, or tell the setup wizard you will email it later.
  • Users: the user list is now a sortable table with search, filters, CSV export and bulk actions. The Last active column shows when someone last used DeskDragon on any device, not just when they signed in, and a Last booking column shows their latest booking. Filter either by "more than 6 months ago" or "more than a year ago", select everyone that matches and remove them in one go. Each user has their own page with their teams, upcoming bookings and a downloadable booking report. Import people from a CSV, group teams into departments, add people to a team or department straight from the Teams page, and give each user one role.
  • Invite anyone: invite contractors and partners from outside your domains. They sign in with a one-time code sent to their inbox, and you can offer the same to your own staff instead of Google or Microsoft. Domains and both settings live on one Sign-in page.
  • Sign-in and registration: the sign-in and register pages have been redesigned, and you can create a company with just your work email. A setup wizard then walks you through locations, floor plans, email domains and booking rules, on the web and in the app.
  • Audit logs: a new admin page lists every change made to your workspace with a before/after diff, plus every sign-in attempt, successful or not. Filter and export either as Excel or CSV.
  • Analytics: rebuilt with Space Optimization, Booking Patterns, Demand and Reports tabs. Every filter lives in the URL, so any view can be shared as a link.
  • Account and Subscribe: subscribe, change plan, swap cards, download invoices and cancel without leaving the app.
  • My Alerts: each alert shows live availability and jumps you into booking once a window opens. The mobile app gets a push notification when a watched desk becomes free.
  • Dark mode: the website, user manual, legal pages and sign-in pages now follow your device's light or dark setting.

23 Apr, 2026

  • My Alerts: a dedicated page to review and cancel your active availability alerts, with the building, floor, desk, and time window for each.
  • QR check-in: the QR code to check in is back in Settings › Check-in, with a Regenerate Now button for admins. Users scan the posted code at the desk to confirm their attendance.
  • Per-building check-in rules: individual buildings can now override the company-wide check-in settings, including their own QR code. Edit a building in Settings › Buildings to view and regenerate its code.

20 Apr, 2026

  • Booking administration: rebuilt filter bar with user, team, floor, building, and date-range presets. Filters round-trip through the URL so admin views are deep-linkable.
  • Desk-days view: toggle between booking rows and one row per user per day for easier headcount reporting.
  • Export: download filtered bookings or desk-days as Excel or CSV.
  • End now: admins and booking owners can shorten an in-progress booking early to free the desk for availability watchers.
  • Restore: admins can un-cancel a booking, as long as no other booking has taken the slot since.
  • Check-in on behalf: admins can now check someone in before the check-in window officially opens.
