Updated mobile app is now available for early access

I have the testflight version but no toggle in the Front mobile app sidebar to turn on the toggle “Enable new design”. Do you know why?

I'm definitely interested in testing this out!

 Yes.  Want in. Please.

​@antoine-sudan I have to add you to the access list on my side first. It should be working now!

I’m definitely in!

​@conniechen can you please ad me to the access list as well

I would like to be able to test too, please?

​@conniechen I would like access as well. Thanks!

Everyone who has commented thus far has been given access. Please follow the instructions in the post to access the new changes. 

Looking forward to your feedback!

When you tap into a tag on mobile, how do you toggle between Open/Archived/Snoozed messages in that tag?

Interested - please add me ​@conniechen and thanks!

​@dtos We’re working on getting that added back in!

So far the new app experience has been great. I noticed the issue dtos pointed out and I’m glad to hear that is being worked on. I also noticed there isn’t an option to add a Task yet. I use that feature a lot so I’d love to see that. I expect it’s coming and just not ready though. 

Another feature I’d love to see is a dark mode. :D 

Some nice to haves would also be the ability to reorganize the inbox menu and for the workspaces to default to collapsed, but retain the last toggle. In other words, I’d like them all to be collapsed to start, but if I expand one I would want it to remain expanded until I collapse it again. The reason for that is the massive number of workspaces I’m in as a company admin. I need to remain in them, but I don’t need to necessarily see every inbox all the time.  

Interested in trying out the new app

Im interested

Thanks for the feedback ​@rmace! Yes, we had to deprioritize adding tasks in at this time, along with dark mode. 

Would love to get access!

​@conniechen would love to test this as well. Thanks!

Yes please, I would love to have access to the updated app

​@conniechen Is there any chance you'd consider replacing the Settings icon in the bottom navigation with Search?

Search is something many users access throughout the day, while Settings tends to be something you only visit occasionally. Moving Search to the bottom navigation would make it much faster to reach, especially on larger iPhones where the bottom of the screen is much more comfortable to access with one hand.

It also feels more in line with Apple's current iOS design language. Many first-party and third-party apps have moved high-frequency actions like Search into the bottom navigation, which makes the experience feel more consistent with the rest of the operating system.

Settings could simply move back into the slide-out menu, where it's still easy to find when needed but doesn't occupy one of the most valuable spots in the primary navigation.

I've included a few examples of other apps that have adopted this pattern for reference.

Hi ​@sarge, thanks for trying out the new design, and for the thoughtful feedback. Your feedback makes sense. I’ll log it for our team to talk through in the coming weeks.

I would like to test this!

​@Kim P The new design is now available without going through the test app, through version 5.81.1. Let me know if you’re not seeing the toggle in the app after updating.
