Here you can see our changelog for the Onzane platform. This is where we share the new features and modifications we're adding to the app and the rest of our software, so you can stay informed about the new functions and improvements being implemented.
24 February 2026

New feature
New module for collecting payments from owners We've added a brand-new module to Onzane, dedicated to managing payments. With this module, administrators can manage the status of payments to owners for each of their communities, including issuing receipts, generating bank transfers, tracking refunds, and carrying out collection efforts. They can also use the Delinquency section to gain a complete overview of the community's delinquency status, its traceability, and the management of legal processes. The billing module itself also includes additional functions to manage and automate the generation of owner fees.
|
|
New feature
Community Bank Accounts It is now possible to define different bank accounts for each community, so they can be used to synchronize transactions and automate accounting reconciliation, as well as process remittances and monitor the collection of payments. |
16 February 2026
|
New feature
New accounting module We've added a new module for community accounting management. This module is designed for the accounting control of all aspects of the community. It's typically used by property managers.With this module, we're launching our new features dedicated to property management, where we aim to include all the functional modules that will allow property managers to fully control and manage all their communities from our platform. Within the new accounting module, you can already create and close accounting periods, manage the chart of accounts (for which we already provide a template commonly used by homeowners' associations), add journal entries, review the general ledger, and generate various balance sheets (including exporting them). We've also begun adding accounting automation by including an Events and Accounting Rules section that will allow you to automate accounting in the future through bank reconciliation and payments and receipts. |
|
Improvement
Fees and accounting transactions of the properties The Finances section of the app has been improved. Community fees and utility bills, such as water, heating, and similar services, can now be displayed directly in the app so owners can view this information and download the associated documents.This improvement is linked to the enhancement of our third-party API, which property managers can use to synchronize financial information with Onzane. It is now possible to use the API to synchronize information about community fees and utility bills. This synchronization displays this information in a detailed list for each owner within the app, including the option to download a PDF file associated with the data. |
02 February 2026
|
Improvement
Survey module enhanced with multiple features We have carried out a complete update of the surveys module, incorporating several significant improvements to optimise its functionality and usability. The most notable new features include:
These improvements make the surveys module a much more powerful and versatile tool for collecting opinions and data within the Community. |
16 January 2026
|
Improvement
More languages supported We've added support for more languages, both in the app and the control panel. German and Dutch can now be set as the languages for viewing the app or the control panel. This is already implemented in the control panel and will be available in the app in the next version. |
|
Improvement
Change in control panel navigation We've modified the control panel navigation system. The communities submenu is no longer located on the side; instead, it can be accessed via a yellow button next to the name of the community being managed.This improves the information display by providing more space and allows for the addition of more options to the menu in the future without requiring additional space. Furthermore, the panel is easier to view on smaller devices, as the menu no longer occupies the top of the screen as it did previously. |
08 January 2026
|
Improvement
Notification of new documents In the documents module, we've added an improvement that allows you to choose whether or not to notify residents when a new document is created. As in other sections of the control panel, a selector is checked by default, enabling you to send this push notification to residents so they are aware of a new document in the repository. |
|
Improvement
Visibility of documents Another improvement added to the documents module is the ability to define their visibility, meaning which resident profiles can view the documents in the app. Now, for each document, you can specify whether owners, cohabitants, or tenants have access.This feature is compatible with the existing community settings, where you can activate different modules for each resident profile. Therefore, you can activate the Documents module for cohabitants, for example, but prevent them from viewing a specific document that is restricted to owners. |
|
New feature
Batch document creation We've added a new feature to the documents module that allows you to upload and create multiple documents more quickly through a batch upload process. There's now a "New Documents in Bulk" action that lets you upload several documents at once. In addition to batch uploads, you can also select or drag and drop documents into the upload area. The system automatically adds the files and allows you to define, for each one, the document type, folder or recipient, title, and date. Furthermore, this feature also allows you to define the visibility of Community documents. |
09 December 2025
|
New feature
Notification of each new booking at a facility to an email address For each reservation-type facility, you can define an email address to which a notification will be sent whenever a new reservation is made. This way, administrators or facility managers can stay informed of new reservations without having to constantly access the reservation system. |
|
New feature
New limit for maximum bookings every few days We have defined a new limit for facilities requiring reservations. This limit allows you to set a maximum number of reservations a resident can make within a given period.For example, you can set a limit of 5 reservations per resident every 15 days. This helps prevent one resident from accumulating too many reservations in a short period, thus allowing other residents to access the facilities as well. |
|
Improvement
New filters in the incident listings New filters have been added to the incident listings to facilitate their search and management. For incidents within a Community, there is now a filter by Building Complex, allowing you to view only the incidents associated with a specific building complex within the Community.Additionally, for the incident listing for all Communities (in the property managers' panel), there is now a new filter by Community, eliminating the need to navigate to a specific Community's incident section to view its incidents. |
|
Improvement
Configuring the relay type for locks on Shelly devices Onzane (by Shelly) lock management devices now allow you to configure the type of relay used to control opening and closing. While a "Normally Open" (NO) relay is typically used, a "Normally Closed" (NC) relay may be necessary in some cases, depending on the type of lock installed. This new option allows you to adapt the device's operation to the specific needs of each installation. |
|
New feature
Facility access control logs We've added a new feature that lets you view access logs directly from each facility.You can now see, in chronological order, all event logs for a facility, across all its access points and devices. Along with the date and time of the event, the log shows the channel used, the access point and device involved, the instruction given, and detailed information about who performed the action, whether it was a key, a reservation, a pass, or an order from the control panel. |
14 November 2025
|
New feature
Groups of devices for physical keys We've added a new feature that allows you to define Device Groups for physical keys. This means that devices using an RFID tag-based authentication system, such as a key fob, card, or wristband, can be part of a device group within a community.Grouping these devices greatly simplifies the task of assigning tags to different devices. Instead of assigning the tag to each device individually, a group is created with all these devices, and the tags are directly associated with the group, eliminating the need to assign them one by one and greatly simplifying management in communities with many users and numerous access-controlled doors. |
|
New feature
List of reservations for today In the employee app, a new feature has been implemented to display a list of all Community facilities' bookings for the day on the app's home screen. This way, employees who have enabled the "View bookings" feature will see a list of all the day's bookings on the main screen, eliminating the need to navigate to the "View bookings" menu option and visit each facility individually to check for reservations. |
01 November 2025
|
New feature
Limit on reservations per different days A new limit has been implemented in the reservation system. This limit allows you to define the number of different days on which a reservation can be made. This prevents a resident from making multiple reservations on more than a set number of days, even if they are able to do so according to other existing limits. The most common scenario is when you want to implement a variable time slot reservation system, allowing a resident to reserve a maximum of certain hours per day. In this case, you can limit the number of reservation days, preventing them from using those hours on different days and allowing other residents to access them as well. |
17 October 2025
|
New feature
Pre-reservations of facilities We have implemented a pre-booking system for facilities managed through reservations. This system is designed to prevent abusive use of facilities by certain residents, beyond the reservation limits established in the Community regulations.Thus, you can configure a facility to use this system for a few hours, especially during new opening time slots, and select the algorithm that will be used to allocate the pre-booking among the different requests that exist. There are different algorithms, depending on the use of the facility in the last 30 days, 60 days, or depending on who has the oldest reservation at that facility. Among the pre-reservation requests received, Onzane will use the selected algorithm to order them and will try to award them in order, taking into account that the defined reservation limits and the possible prices that are established for the bands, whether prices per use or per service, are still being used. When the system awards the reservation to the first applicant, both the applicant and the rest of the applicants are notified of the award. Internally, the entire system is developed so that no failures occur in time and the necessary blocks are established during the award process, avoiding unwanted reservations. |
|
Improvement
Minor changes and bug fixes In this new version we have fixed many small bugs that existed, thanks to the feedback from our customers, whom we thank for their interest and contributions.We have also improved some functions, such as the implementation of pass programs, downloading budgets provided by residents, new property types and more information in the My Property section. |
07 October 2025
|
New feature
Resident pass programs We have created a new feature aimed at controlling and managing passes or cards for community residents. This feature allows you to create pass programs in each community, with customized operating rules that define everything from how passes are assigned or purchased to which properties or resident profiles participate in the program. The passes can then be used by residents to grant access to certain community facilities.In addition, these passes can have different characteristics, such as validity dates and a defined number of uses. In addition to their uniqueness, passes can be lent between different residents, according to the program specifications. In this case, there are established acceptance, denial, revocation, and return processes that can be carried out from the app. This feature is especially useful for communities that offer additional services to their residents, such as access to swimming pools, gyms, clubs, event rooms, or other common areas, and allows for more efficient access control, avoiding the use of traditional physical devices such as cards or cards. |
29 September 2025
|
Improvement
Communications sent by email by default We've added a new settings option to the Community. We can now enable the option to receive email notifications for Community owners by default. Until now, the default option was to have this option disabled.This way, if this option is enabled, all new owners assigned to a property in the Community will have the option to receive email notifications enabled. They can always disable it if they wish through the app in the notifications option in their settings. This option is designed for those communities where not all owners use the app, to ensure that everyone receives email notifications sent from the Community. |
|
Improvement
Document folders by property set It is now possible to define in the document folders, whether a folder is common to the entire Community or if it is specific to a Property Set. Until now, all folders were common to the entire Community.This way, it is possible to better organize documents, creating specific folders for each Property Set, and thus the residents of those properties will only see the folders that correspond to them according to the Set to which they belong. The folders that already existed in the Community have been maintained as common to the entire Community, and from now on, new specific folders can be created for each Property Set. |
27 August 2025
|
Improvement
Send communications to different targets We have improved the announcements function, now allowing them to be sent to different targets. Until now they could be sent to the entire Community, or to a Set of properties.From now on they can be sent to the following targets: - To the entire Community - To some Sets of properties - To some Groups of properties - To some Properties - To some Residents In addition, you can now choose more complex objectives, such as sending an announcement to several sets of properties, to several groups of properties, to several individual properties and finally to several specific residents, all in a single announcement. In this way, the sending of announcements can be much better segmented, allowing residents to receive only the announcements that interest them. |
27 June 2025
|
New feature
Functional modules by resident profile We've added a new feature that allows you to define the app's functional modules that will be activated and therefore displayed in the residents' app. Previously, these modules could only be defined globally and for tenants. Now, they can be configured individually for Owners, Tenants, and Cohabitants.This way, each resident profile can have a different configuration of functional modules, allowing each resident to have access only to the modules that correspond to their profile. For example, an Owner may have access to community management modules that are not required for a Tenant or Cohabitant. |
|
New feature
Physical keys associated with residents We have completed the use of physical keys, allowing them to be directly associated with community residents. Until now, they could be associated with employees and properties, and now they can also be associated with community residents.This makes it possible to associate cards, key fobs, or wristbands directly with certain residents and use them if personal authentication is required. The functions that already existed for employees and properties have been adapted so that they can also be used with residents. |
17 June 2025
|
New feature
New module for key control in the Concierge We have implemented a new module so that the Concierge staff can keep track of the keys, in case they are in charge of managing them.Through this new functionality, the entries and exits of the keys that are in storage, normally in the Concierge of the Community, can be recorded. For now, employees can use the control panel to register and deregister, and record the movements of each key, so that its situation is continuously monitored. In a future improvement, we will provide this functionality to the employee app, so that they can also control it from their mobile phones, additionally adding the possibility for the recipient of a key exit and/or entry to sign the record, keeping a record of it. |
06 June 2025
|
Improvement
Modified the reservation process in the control panel The process for making reservations from the dashboard has been improved. It now follows a similar procedure to the one used in the employee app. First, the facility is selected, then the property to be booked, and finally the resident who will be booking. This makes booking reservations much easier, as it is typically used by community staff who don't know the names of all the residents, but do know the property requesting a reservation. |
|
New feature
Multiple seasons per installation We have now completed development to allow multiple seasons to be defined for a facility. A season is a period of dates within a year that define the facility's schedule for that period. Until now, there was a single season that covered the entire year, but new seasons can now be created and configured with different dates to cover the entire year. An existing season configuration can also be duplicated and another created, resulting in the same configuration but allowing for quick and easy operation.The idea behind seasons is to allow them to be defined in cases where different seasons are needed throughout the year, so that the facility can have different schedules depending on the season. It is very common to have sports facilities with different schedules in winter and summer. This way, two seasons can now be defined for the facility (winter and summer), and each can have completely different schedules and time slots. |
|
New feature
Resource reserves We've added a new option for reservations: resource reservations. Resources can be anything that can be reserved in conjunction with a facility on a mandatory basis. For example, you can now define a gastropub with six tables, and a reservation can be made for one table in the gastropub.To reserve a resource, the facility will first need to define all the facility's possible resources and the limit on the number of resources that can be reserved per home in each time slot. Following the previous example, residents can reserve one of the available tables from the app, and when there are no more available tables, the time slot will be fully reserved. |
|
New feature
Generate property list We've added a new option in the Properties section to generate a list of these properties. This feature allows you to optionally select the property type to generate the list, or if you don't select one, all properties will be listed. After selecting the property type, you can choose the file format in which you want to generate the list, including Excel, CSV, HTML, and PDF. |
|
Improvement
Selectable text in the app Now, text can be easily selected in the app, just like in other apps. By long-pressing the required text, depending on the device's operating system, you can select and copy it for other uses. This option has been enabled in areas where text is provided by residents or administrators, such as Announcements, Incidents, and Forums. |
|
New feature
Acceptance of legal conditions A new feature has been added in the latest version of the app (1.4.8) to request explicit acceptance of the legal conditions for use of the application itself. This includes legal information about the identification of the owner of the website and the app, terms and conditions of use, and finally the privacy policy.It is now mandatory for all users of the app to indicate that they have read and accept all these legal conditions to continue using the Onzane application. In addition, a section has been added to the Settings section of the app where all these legal conditions are always updated. |
