Security Updates & Usability Improvements

This release tightens security around team invitations, MCP tokens, uptime monitors and webhooks. It also brings a handful of usability improvements and fixes across the dashboard and session replay.

Improvements

  • The change password dialog now shows the password rules as a live checklist while you type.
  • Various small usability improvements, including browser and operating system icons that load instantly, a clear "Monitor not found" page, a check that every monitor has at least one accepted status code, and missing translations.

Fixes

  • Switching dashboards while viewing a monitor, status page or error no longer lands on an error page.
  • Session replay now records correctly on sites that also run other analytics scripts.
  • An expired invitation no longer prevents inviting the same person again.
  • Sign-in errors are now clearer and tell you what went wrong.

Security

  • Creating and deleting MCP tokens is now limited to dashboard owners and admins.
  • Team invitations are more secure. Invite links for pending invitations are only shown to members who can invite, and invitations are only matched to your account once your email address is verified.
  • Uptime monitors and webhooks can no longer reach private, internal or cloud metadata addresses.
  • Security fixes to sign-in and email verification.

2FA Backup Codes & Faster, More Reliable Session Replay

Two-factor authentication now comes with backup codes, and session replay is lighter on your website, more reliable, and quicker to load. You can also now choose the timezone your dashboards are shown in.

New Features

  • Two-factor authentication now comes with one-time backup codes, so you can still sign in if you lose your authenticator app.
  • Choose the timezone your dashboards are shown in under Settings > Preferences. Auto-detect remains the default.

Improvements

  • Session replay has been optimized and now has a smaller impact on your website.
  • Session replay is much more reliable at capturing the last few seconds before a visitor leaves the page.
  • Session replays now load faster in the dashboard, and playback starts sooner.
  • Minor usability improvements across the dashboard.

Fixes

  • Fixed an issue where the dashboard would not load in the rare case that a browser did not report a timezone.

Stronger Bot Filtering & Security Updates

The second wave of our bot filtering rules is now live, removing crawlers and scraper traffic that previously counted as visitors. This release also brings major security updates to authentication, along with a handful of usability improvements and fixes across filters, funnels, and team invitations.

Stronger Bot Filtering

In our previous release we put a large set of new bot detection rules into observation mode, flagging suspected traffic without touching your numbers. After four weeks of measuring them against real traffic, the rules that proved to catch only bots are now enforced.

This wave removes a group of named crawlers, along with scraper fleets running through residential proxies that many sites saw as unexplained visits from Vietnam, Brazil, and Singapore. Only rules that showed no real visitor interaction across thousands of sessions were promoted, and the remaining rules continue observing for future waves.

New Features

  • Clicking into your data to apply a filter now shows a notice of exactly what changed, and lets you undo it.
  • Team invitations now come with a shareable link, so you can invite people over any channel instead of relying on email.

Improvements

  • Browser, operating system, and device icons now appear in the filter dropdown, applied filter chips, and funnel step labels.
  • Various small design and usability improvements across filters and the dashboard.

Fixes

  • Editing a funnel could reorder its steps on save, silently changing both the displayed steps and the conversion numbers. Step order is now preserved.
  • Signed-in users no longer briefly see the Sign in and Get started buttons while a page loads.
  • The loading bar at the top of the page no longer runs forever after opening an external link in a new tab or clicking an email or phone link.

Security

  • Major security updates to authentication and account handling, keeping your account and data safe and secure.
