Product Updates
1. Photos in “Task Details”
- What this means: Photos shared in chat are now viewable on the “Task Details” screen for each task.
- Why we did it: So you have easier access to all the information you’ve shared with your client. This will make the “Task Details” screen a one-stop-shop for all required information to scope and complete the task, saving time spent toggling back and forth between the “Details” and “Chat” tabs.
2. New “confirm info” step during
identity verification
- What this means: We’re giving new registrants a chance to double-check their personal details (and make edits) before processing their ID and background checks.
- Why we did it: So you can ensure all your personal data is accurate before submitting, get your background and identity verified, and get tasking as quickly as possible.
3. Heatmaps by zip code
- What this means: We’re giving new registrants a chance to double-check their personal details (and make edits) before processing their ID and background checks.
- Why we did it: So you can ensure all your personal data is accurate before submitting, get your background and identity verified, and get tasking as quickly as possible.
4. Onboarding update: skills in demand
and earning potential
- What this means: In certain metros, we’re testing a new feature that gives prospective Taskers information during registration about earning potential and skill demand.
- Why we’re testing it: So prospective Taskers can have more information about their tasking potential while deciding if Taskrabbit is the right platform for them.
5. Scoping questions from clients
booking in the Mounting
category
- What this means: For certain Mounting tasks, we’re testing a new space for clients to answer scoping questions when booking. These clients will now be asked:
- What items do you need mounted?
- What is the wall made of?
- Will someone be around to help your Tasker lift the item into place?
- Do you have a mount, bracket, or anchor for your items?
- Anything else? (Optional)
- Why we’re testing it: So you can have more information sooner and reduce the need to scope further with clients in chat. This will save you time and effort!
Bug Fixes
- We fixed a bug preventing some of you from sending messages to clients.
- We fixed a bug preventing some of you from selecting appointments at the end of the month.
