Features & Enhancements
Big and bold additions to the product.
New functionality that changes what you can do.
Goals – Flexible Goals Editing & Progress
Mapal One will allow Employees to edit flexible goals while tracking progress. Employees will be able to update objectives, tasks, and progress at the same time, without restrictions.
Flexible goals will not require locking or sign-off, allowing Employees to continuously refine their goals throughout the process.
Why this matters
Currently, some goals may become restricted once progress tracking begins, making it harder for Employees to update or refine their objectives. Flexible goals will remove these limitations and provide a more adaptable experience.
Key benefits:
- Continuous editing: Employees will be able to update goals at any time.
- Immediate progress tracking: Progress can be tracked without additional steps.
- No restrictions: Locking and sign-off will not apply to flexible goals.
- Simpler experience: Goals can be refined and updated in one place.
Evaluations – Add Comments to Self-Assessment Scores
Mapal One will allow Employees to add a comment when completing self-assessment scores within the Evaluations section. A text field will be available alongside scoring options, enabling Employees to explain the reasoning behind their selected score.
The comment will be saved as part of the evaluation and will be visible to Managers during review.
Why this matters
Currently, Employees can provide scores but cannot explain the reasoning behind them. This can make it difficult for Managers to fully understand the context of a self-assessment. Adding comments will improve the quality of feedback and support more meaningful evaluation discussions.
Key benefits:
- Better context: Employees will be able to explain the reasoning behind their scores.
- More informed reviews: Managers will have clearer insight when reviewing evaluations.
- Improved feedback quality: Evaluations will include both scores and supporting comments
- Consistent experience: Comments will be displayed alongside scores during review.
Behaviour summary:
- A text field will be added below scoring options in the self-assessment section.
- The field will be available for relevant question types (such as single choice and satisfaction questions).
- Employees will be able to enter comments up to a defined character limit.
- Comments will be saved as part of the evaluation response.
- Managers will be able to view comments alongside scores during review.
- Once submitted, comments will be viewable in read-only format.
- The existing scoring logic and evaluation workflow will remain unchanged.
Golden Nuggets
Small changes, big impact.
Quick wins inspired directly by your feedback.
Explore Learning – Role-Based Content on Dashboard
Mapal One will filter Explore Learning items on the Dashboard based on the Employee’s job role, ensuring that displayed content is relevant to their responsibilities.
The same filtering logic already used within the Explore Learning section will now be applied to Dashboard content for a more consistent experience.
Why this matters
Currently, learning content on the Dashboard may not reflect an Employee’s role, even though filtering is applied within the Explore Learning section. This inconsistency can reduce relevance and create confusion.
Key benefits
- More relevant content: Employees will see learning aligned to their job role.
- Consistent experience: Dashboard content will match the Explore Learning section.
- Improved engagement: Relevant suggestions will encourage more interaction with learning.
- Cleaner Dashboard: If no relevant learning is available, the section will not be shown
Improvements
Refinements that make things smoother and better.
Performance, usability and quality upgrades.
iOS – Location Permission Messaging Update
Mapal One will include a clear message explaining why location access may be requested on iOS devices. This ensures the app meets Apple’s requirements for transparency when accessing device features.
Why this matters
Apple requires apps to clearly explain why certain permissions, such as location access, may be requested. Without this message, future app updates may be rejected, even if location services are not actively used. This is required for our expansion into LATAM.
Key benefits
- Compliance with Apple requirements: Ensures future app updates can be submitted without issues.
- Improved transparency: Employees will see a clear explanation if location access is requested.
- No impact to functionality: This change does not affect how the app works.
Bug Fixes
Issues we have resolved.
Fixes to improve stability and reliability.
External Links – Image Cropping Issue
Fixed an issue where images selected and cropped in Flow for External Links were being further cropped when displayed in Mapal One.
Images will now display exactly as configured, without additional cropping.
Login – Repeated Sync Error Messages
Fixed an issue where error messages related to Flow or Engagement sync were repeatedly displayed to Employees, eventually causing the session to time out.
The error will now display once, allowing the Employee to continue using Mapal One where access is available.
** Please Note: These features were released on the 16/04/2026. Availability on iOS may take up to 24 hours due to Apple’s review process.
