Teams using Linear for project management, can now sync cycle dates and display them directly on your Schedule.

If you don't use Linear and want to plan using other recurring timeframes in Float, let us know in the Slack community or email support@float.com!

We've released a bunch of improvements to help you standardize roles and rates management in Float, including:

• Rates are now displayed in the Role dropdown in the Person modal
• See someone's default role rate when adding your project team
• A strikethrough markup making it easier to see when someone's default hourly rate is overriden
• Bulk assign Roles in the People page, with the option to update to the default or keep existing role rates
• A link shortcut to see who's assigned to which roles
• Role types have been added to Activity feed logs
• Bug fixes, smaller improvements, and an API update
  

Do you use phases in your project planning? Now when your projects with phase dates are saved as templates → the number of calendar days for each phase will be automatically calculated and set as the default phase duration.

Let's walk through an example.

The Float desktop timer app is now available for everyone to download! In October, we introduced an in-app timer that automatically logs your recorded time as entries in Float. Now, the dedicated timer app makes it even easier to start recording your time on tasks—directly from your desktop.
