OfferBee 1.0.6 — Family Sharing, Messages from Us, and Widgets That Stay Fresh
OfferBee 1.0.6 lets you track credits together with your family, brings messages from the OfferBee team into the app, keeps your widgets current on their own, and makes it easier to get started with notifications on iPhone. Here's what changed.
👨👩👧 Family sharing
Plenty of you share cards with a partner or family member. Now you can see each other's credits in one place. Open Settings, go to Family, and invite someone by email. If they don't have OfferBee yet, they'll get an email with a link to download it.
-
Everyone's credits at a glance: the Family view, right from the Review tab, shows what's still to claim this month across everyone, and what each person has captured this year.
-
Nudge before a credit resets: open a family member to see what's expiring soon, and nudge them about a specific credit with one tap.
-
Private where it matters: family members see each other's cards and tracked credits, never bank accounts or transactions.
-
You're in control: share with up to 5 people. Remove someone any time and you both stop seeing each other's credits.
Inviting and managing your family is free. The Family view and nudges are part of OfferBee Pro, including your free trial. Family sharing is in the app on iPhone, iPad and Android.
💬 Messages from the OfferBee team
-
Straight to your notifications: now and then we'll send a short note, like a new feature worth knowing about or a special offer. Tap it to read the whole message.
-
Promo codes you can copy: when a message includes a code, press and hold it to copy.
🧩 Widgets that stay up to date
Your Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets now refresh in the background, so the credits they show stay current even if you haven't opened the app in a while.
🔔 Easier notifications on iPhone
-
Quiet reminders from the start: before you've turned on alerts, OfferBee can now deliver reminders quietly to Notification Center, so a resetting credit doesn't slip by unnoticed.
-
Turn on alerts any time: if you're getting quiet notifications, the app will offer to switch on full alerts so reminders reach your Lock Screen.
⭐ Smaller things you'll notice
-
What's new: Settings has a new What's new row under Help & feedback, with a New badge whenever we post an update like this one.
-
Trial status: Settings now tells you when your free trial has ended.
-
One typeface: numbers now use the same typeface as everything else, in the app and on the web.
-
Dwell offers on iPhone: the app is more reliable at noticing when you've stopped somewhere.
-
Rotating categories: quarterly bonus categories now refresh on time when a new quarter starts, and cards with rotating categories now get "Use the right card" suggestions too.
Availability: OfferBee 1.0.6 is out now on the App Store and Google Play update the app to get everything above. The rotating-category improvements are already live for everyone.
