January 2025 Product Updates

Hi there,

⠀

We hope your first month of 2025 is off to a great start! We want to take a moment to thank you for your continued support. Your feedback pushes us to improve, and we’re excited to share some major updates that will enhance your experience.

⠀

We’ve been working hard on new features that will be rolling out in the coming week:

⠀

Instant Folder Downloads – No More Waiting

We’re making folder downloads faster and easier. Previously, you had to request a zip file, wait for an email, and then download it. Now, with our new instant zip downloading, your files will start downloading immediately, right to your device.

⠀

This feature is rolling out gradually, so if you don’t see it yet, it will be available soon.

⠀

⠀

Over the past few months, we’ve also been refactoring our file system in the background to support even bigger improvements in the near future. Here’s what’s on our roadmap:

⠀

Coming Soon: Files Tab in Explore

A dedicated space to access all your uploaded files directly in Explore. You’ll soon be able to create layers without switching between the Project Detail Page and Explore.

⠀

⠀

Coming Soon: Improved Data Management

We’re enhancing file organisation, making it easier to clean up large datasets with recursive deletion and improving the stability of uploads.

⠀

⠀

Coming Soon: Boost Loading Speed with Regional Storage

We’re testing a new feature that allows new accounts to store data in a closer region (USA, Singapore, Israel, Australia, or Ireland), ensuring better loading speed for you and your clients.

⠀

⠀

We’re excited about what’s coming and can’t wait for you to experience these improvements. Thank you for being part of our journey—we have more exciting updates in store, so stay tuned!

⠀

Best regards,
The SKAND Team
