Optimization tasks in your Weekly Plan now include concrete, actionable steps for each platform — Twitter/X, Reddit, Hacker News, and Indie Hackers. No more vague "optimize your profile" instructions.
New
In-app notifications
The bell icon now shows notifications when new opportunities are found, your weekly plan is ready, or your channel recommendations are updated.
Improved
Weekly Plan step progress is saved

No-Go Zones reporting system
Flag and exclude channels from distribution scans using a secure server-side verification and reporting system.
Fix
Stay signed in across sessions
Fixed an issue where users were prompted to sign in repeatedly. Sessions now persist correctly and refresh automatically.

Sign in no longer overwrites your profile
Fixed a bug where signing in with Google would reset your display name and other profile details. Your manually set profile data is now preserved on every sign in.
Fix
Plan cadence setting now persists
The Weekly Plan cadence preference (~1 hour, ~3 hours, 5+ hours) was resetting after plan regeneration. It now saves immediately on selection.
Improved
Opportunity filters are now instant
Platform filters on the Opportunities page now apply instantly against already-fetched data. No more 2-4 second delay on every filter click.
Fix
Fixed "null" showing in the UI
Several places in the app were displaying the literal text "null" when a field had no value. These are now handled with proper fallbacks or hidden entirely.
New
Reddit community suggestions & rules
Xoru now suggests Reddit communities for your product and tracks self-promotion windows and submission rules to keep marketing compliant.

Configure No-Go Zones in your dashboard settings to prevent Xoru from recommending specific subreddits, platforms, or handles.
