Product Updates

ApplyPocket is intentionally small, but it is being actively improved.

This page shares user-facing changes, fixes, and likely next improvements so early users can see what has changed and where the product is headed.

Added

Next step for each application

You can now add a simple next step to an application, such as “follow up with recruiter,” “prep for interview,” “check the company portal,” or “wait for response.”

Next steps appear on the application list alongside follow-up and stale-status cues, making it easier to see what needs attention without managing a separate task list.

Improved

Dashboard attention cues

Application rows now do a better job combining the next action with follow-up timing, no-response status, and stale application cues.

The goal is simple: when you open ApplyPocket, it should be easier to answer, “What needs my attention?”

Follow-up visibility

The dashboard now separates items that need attention today from follow-ups coming up soon, so active applications are easier to scan.

Fixed

Legal and support page access

Privacy and Terms pages are now available from clean public URLs and linked consistently from the site footer.

Likely next

These are the kinds of improvements currently being considered. They may change based on tester feedback.

• Cleaner first-run guidance for new users
• More helpful examples for follow-up and waiting states
• Better polish around stale and no-response applications
• Small usability improvements based on tester feedback

ApplyPocket will stay focused on one job: helping active job seekers track applications after they apply without building and maintaining a messy spreadsheet by hand.
