What’s new · shipping log
Xona keeps shipping.
Every release, in the words your front desk would use — no jargon, no roadmap promises. If it’s on this page, it’s already running in live clinics.
August 30, 2026
- Fixed
Reschedules keep the original appointment type
On Curve, rescheduling now always rebooks the patient's original appointment type with no setup needed. Openings are always the exact visit length, and lunch or blocked time is never offered as an opening.
- New
Curve Dental is now supported
Clinics on Curve Dental can connect from Integrations with automatic sign-in. Xona syncs patients, schedules, availability, recall, birthdays, and cancellations, and can book, reschedule, confirm, and cancel appointments.
- Fixed
Curve Recall now uses your real recare list
Curve practices now see the exact patients and overdue recare count from Curve. Recall no longer estimates this list from visit age.
August 12, 2026
- Fixed
Answered texts now clear from Needs you
When Xona successfully answers a patient's text, that conversation now clears from Needs you. Incomplete answers or delivery problems stay visible for follow-up.
August 10, 2026
- Fixed
Unanswered recall calls now keep moving
When a patient does not answer, Xona records the attempt and safely schedules the next recall step instead of leaving the patient stuck.
August 9, 2026
- Fixed
Reminder language checks finish cleanly in demo-safe workspaces
When you check reminder language in a demo-safe workspace, the result now refreshes in the same page instead of showing a false connection warning.
August 4, 2026
- Fixed
Fewer text conversations get stuck in Needs you
Xona now retries rare incomplete AI replies immediately and recognizes handled acknowledgments, reducing unnecessary Needs-you items and long waits before staff escalation.
August 3, 2026
- Fixed
Calls keep the right language after hello
Xona keeps each call's starting language after ambiguous greetings such as “hello” or “哈喽,” and switches only when the caller clearly asks or continues their request in another language.
August 2, 2026
- Fixed
Natural clinical terms in multilingual calls
When discussing appointment providers, Xona now uses natural terms such as doctor or dentist in the caller's language instead of literal internal wording.
- Fixed
Open-chair opportunities look like schedule openings
Today's open-chair rows now use a calendar icon and the right localized label, so real PMS openings no longer look like sample patients or broken initials.
- New
Send reminders before appointment-free days
When a reminder date falls in a stretch with no appointments, Xona can move that batch to the previous appointment day while keeping the exact appointment date in every message.
August 1, 2026
- Fixed
Staff-only treatments stay with your team
When callers ask for a treatment that is not available for online booking, Xona now creates a staff follow-up instead of switching them into a different bookable service. Booking still continues when the caller explicitly chooses an online-bookable option.
- Fixed
"Not now" pauses only that outreach
When a patient declines a recall or open-slot offer by text, Xona now records it before closing the conversation and stops that exact outreach cycle. Appointment reminders and unrelated messages stay active.
- Fixed
One link manages the whole family's appointments
Patients opening a secure booking link can now see every family member's live upcoming appointments, with accurate counts, and cancel or reschedule eligible visits without another phone-code step. Only scheduling details are shown.
- Fixed
SMS appointment activity stays accurate
Appointments booked, cancelled, or rescheduled by text keep appearing in Activities after a restart. A STOP sent during a reply now ends quietly instead of creating a false Needs-you item.
- Fixed
Birthday greetings wait until they are ready
Xona now finishes detecting the patient's language before claiming the greeting or using the day's send capacity, so an unfinished greeting does not get stuck.
- Improved
Secure booking links use the phone on file
Returning patients can receive the verification code at the masked phone number already bound to their secure link, without retyping it or completing another bot check.
- New
See when Xona fixed an issue you encountered
A verified receipt now appears beside an affected call, text, or follow-up. It tells you whether the old record changed and whether staff still need to act.
