Release Notes

This page provides notes about recent releases.

1.1.14

Released: October 5, 2026

Enhances

• Columns are now resizeable.

Known Issues

• The column resize cursor is not visible the first few times it’s used. This happens after every page load or reload. The root cause is a Chrome bug that has so far eluded all attempts at a work-around.

1.1.13

Released: September 28, 2026

• Interface is no in Spanish when Chrome’s default language is set to Spanish.
• Improved ARIA tags (for the visually impaired).

1.1.12

Released: September 20, 2026

• The ‘Options’ table was reorganized.
• There’s now a link to allow users to suggest a new sender.

1.1.11

Released: September 14, 2026

• A variation in ZipRecuriter emails is not accounted for, making all known variations parsable.
• The ‘Date Recieved’ column now sorts correctly by time as well as date.
• The ‘Last retrieved’ date and time is now ‘Last refreshed’ and only contains the time.

1.1.10

Released: September 7, 2026

Enhancements and Fixes

• Refresh of the jobs list now happens on a 30-minute cycle. That cycle is explicit to the user via refresh time.
• Made the loading of new jobs more obvious to users.
• The buttons in the ‘Actions’ column now aligns correctly with the rest of the ‘Jobs’ table.
• The ‘Actions’ column no longer appears sortable.

1.1.9

Released: August 31, 2026

Enhancements

• Now parsers emails from ZipRecruiter.
• The jobs list loads faster.
• Fixed the display of the extension icon in the jobs list header.
• Fixed rendering of visible text so that non-word characters display correctly.

1.1.8

Released: August 24, 2026

Enhancements

• Job titles now wrap to multiple lines so that the whole job title may be read.
• Job Search Monitor now processes emails from Builtin and Hiring Cafe.
• Email parsers now handle emails from match.indeed.com in addition to jobalert.indeed.com.
• For convenience, an additional refresh button was added near the job title configuration options.

1.1.7

Released: August 13, 2026

All change are internal.

1.1.1

Released: August 5, 2026

Enhancements and Fixes

• Sender email addresses were reduced to domains to make them more flexible. A second LinkedIn domain was added.
• A ‘Share’ button was added.
• The ‘Donate’ button was changed to ‘Tip jar’.
• Column widths were adjusted to account for text that takes up too much space. This was done as a temporary fix for the LinkedIn issue. (See below.) It is being kept to prevent future problems.
• A subtle highlight now appears over whichever row contains the mouse pointer.
• A signal now alerts the user to refresh the ‘Jobs list’ after a job title has been added.

Known Issues

Some LinkedIn emails are not rendering correctly. This is believed to be a temporary problem caused by LinkedIn.
