Improvements for Activity Feed, Rooms, and Feedback

Activity Feed

Guides can now choose to also send an email to families when creating a new activity feed post.

Rooms Safety

We’re making Rooms safer for everyone. During a Rooms session, participants can report a safety concern by clicking the red shield icon on the bottom right, and our moderation team will immediately be notified.

We will also attach the session recording to the report, so we have a better idea of what happened.

Kids can now request access to Rooms from the Safety page, and we’ll email parents with the next steps.

Help Center

Got a feature suggestion or a bug report? You can now submit them in-app via the new “Help” button on the bottom right! Plus, you can read about latest product updates to Recess in the changelog section.

Waitlist Improvements, New Courses Featuring

Starting today, we're sharing regular product updates to keep you in the loop!

Waitlist Improvements

You can now use an externally-hosted form (like Google Forms, Airtable, etc.) as your waitlist! Using an external waitlist will disable the Recess-managed waitlist experience.

Custom Waitlist Settings

The link will open in a new tab for the user. When setting up your waitlist form, please include a success message that instruct the user to close the tab once the form has been successfully submitted.

For those continuing to use the Recess-managed waitlist, you can now copy a comma-separated list of emails on the waitlist. We ask that you keep users' privacy in mind and use only a mail merge tool or BCC'ing everyone when sending bulk emails. If you have questions about how to do this, please reach out and ask!
