Week 52 - Instant emoji reactions ๐
Doubling down on last week's addition with feedback templates, managers are now also able to add instant emoji reactions to specific answers.
This gives them a full range of feedback options when receiving check-in answers, including feedback, comments and instant emoji reactions.
These instant reactions can also be used by team members to react to feedback shared by their manager.
We are looking forward to your feedback on these new features to keep fine tuning them.

See you next year!

Week 50 - Check-in scheduling just got easier ๐
Hey there ๐
Check-in scheduling just got easier. Now, simply (i) pick the date of your next 1:1 meeting and (ii) select its frequency, and thatโs it. Popwork will take care of sending check-in reminders ahead of this date.
This is the first step to make the scheduling of rituals more intuitive. More to come at the beginning of next year!
Others improvements:
- Fixed issue with display of profile picture on iOS and Safari

Week 49 - Read receipt on check-ins โ
Hi there ๐
Weโve just added a read receipt at the top of each check-in to show when the manager has read the answers.
This small addition is part of a broader ongoing effort to improve the way managers can react to check-in answers. We believe reciprocity is key in the manager - team member relationship: we will soon be adding a new and more immediate way for managers to share feedback.
Another cool addition shipped this week: the automatic upload of your Google profile picture if you sign-in with a Google account and have no avatar yet on Popwork.
Other improvements:
- Improved UX of objective question in check-in
- Fixed issue when sharing an objective status update
- Fixed display issue when closing or deleting an objective
- Fixed issue with in display of the answers menu
- Added an error message if a user tries to access a check-in with the wrong account

Week 48 - Share reciprocal feedback on closed objectives ๐ฏ
Hi there ๐
We have just added the possibility to share reciprocal feedback on closed objectives.
Team members can now close objectives from their check-in, set a closing status (ie. met, partially met, not met, deprioritized) and share a closing feedback. The manager will then be invited to share their own feedback and confirm the final status.
The other way around works as well - if the manager closes the objective (from the objective drawer), then the team member will be invited to share feedback in the next check-in containing the Objectives update.
Feedback will be shared with the rest of the check-in answers, and closed objectives can be found in the Objectives views, under the Closed tab.
Other improvements:
- Fixed issue when logging out from Google
- Users now have access to Insights history of archived relationships

Now, you can quickly visualise these key indicators for all your teams or direct reports in one table. As a manager or admin, it can be accessed from your Dashboard.
