What's new in AltEd

The latest releases of AltEd, newest first — numbered, dated and grouped by what changed, in plain words.

  • Latest: v0.144.0
v0.144.0LatestMinor release

A thank-you for every payment, and refunds that settle

Buying AI credits or subscribing now brings a confirmation email with your receipt and invoice, coming back from paying always says it worked, and a refund in full takes back what it paid for.

Everyone3 changes

  • New

    A confirmation email for credits and plans

    After you buy AI credits or subscribe to Family or Provider, we email you what you bought, what you paid and links to your receipt and invoice — as an evidence pass already did. A credit pack now comes with an invoice too.

  • Fixed

    Coming back from paying says it worked

    After subscribing you come back to Settings › Billing & plan to a thank-you, and after paying a provider by card, to one on Payments.

  • Changed

    Refunds settle what they paid for

    If a payment is refunded in full, what it paid for goes with it: an evidence pass closes (a later one for the same learner moves back by the days it hadn't used), a credit pack's unused credits are taken back, and a card payment to a provider comes off the balance. Each shows as Refunded where it's listed.

v0.143.3Patch release

Searches find exactly what you type

A search with an underscore or a percent sign in it now finds just that, and the sign-in records are tidied for the current sign-in library.

Everyone1 change

  • Fixed

    Underscores and percent signs in a search

    Searching for “year_5” or “50%” used to treat the _ and % as “anything here”, so it found more than you asked for. Every search box now matches them as written — and still ignores capitals.

v0.143.2Patch release

Security checks, and tips only where they fit

A regular security review of the last five updates: a handful of small fixes, and class tips now go only to providers who've chosen to be found.

For providers1 change

  • Changed

    Class tips only if you're listed

    The Tips for your classes emails now go only to providers listed on Find a class (or who claimed a listing AltEd set up). Classes you run privately, for families you know, never get them.

Your devices1 change

  • Fixed

    A shared device starts discreet for each person

    If someone else turns on notifications on a phone or tablet you used, its lock screen starts with the plain line for them — Show details on the lock screen is their own choice, not carried over from yours.
