Dwelly
Changelog

Dwelly now has a Meal Plan. Co-owners can claim meals by date, tag who's cooking, and mark whether it's breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Everyone on the property can see the plan. Viewers can see what's coming. Co-owners can add, edit, and delete any meal.

Two ways to view: a chronological list grouped by date, or a grid that shows each day as a row with breakfast, lunch, and dinner across as columns. Switch between them with the toggle at the top of the page.

When a meal is added, all co-owners and viewers get an email notification so everyone knows what's being cooked and when.

Find it in the sidebar under Meal Plan.

The Calendar just got a lot more useful. In addition to tracking who's staying and when, you can now add recurring property events directly to the calendar. Trash pickup, cleaning service, pest control, lawn care, pool service, whatever keeps your property running. Set it once with a recurrence and it shows up automatically. A new Upcoming section on your Dashboard shows the next few events at a glance so nothing sneaks up on you. Toggle between Stays and Events on the calendar to keep things clean, especially on mobile.

Give anyone read-only access to your property without making them a co-owner. Perfect for your cleaning crew, your kids, or anyone who needs visibility without editing rights. Viewers can see the reservation calendar, notes, inventory, shopping list, and maintenance log. They can't touch expenses, checklists, or contacts. Invite up to 2 Viewers on Basic, unlimited on Plus.

Announcements got a serious upgrade. Notes now supports photo uploads (up to 3 per note), optional expiration dates so time-sensitive posts disappear automatically, and anyone in the property including Viewers can post and delete. Leave fridge photos before you head home. Set instructions that expire after the weekend. It just works.

You can now reserve the entire property in one booking instead of selecting individual rooms. Just toggle to Book Whole House when creating a reservation. All rooms are automatically blocked for those dates so there are no conflicts. Whole house bookings show as a distinct terracotta banner on the calendar so everyone can see at a glance when the whole property is taken.

Dwelly has a new logo. The previous roofline mark has been replaced with a skeleton key icon over the Dwelly wordmark. You'll see it across the app, the website, the favicon, and the home screen icon. If you have Dwelly saved to your home screen remove it and re-add it from dwellyco.com to get the updated icon.

Dwelly officially launched on May 1, 2026. Welcome to the community of families who are done managing their shared property over group texts and spreadsheets.

A new info panel accessible from every dashboard — tap the ⓘ button next to the co-owner avatars in the property header. Shows address, WiFi network and password, access and gate codes, trash pickup day, parking instructions, and general notes. Only filled fields are shown — nothing blank. Property owners can edit directly from the panel. Co-owners get a clean read-only view. Also added as an optional section in the property setup flow so you can fill it in from day one.

A resettable arrival checklist that mirrors the Departure Checklist. Five default tasks to get you started and fully customizable for your property. Tracks progress and resets fresh for each trip.

Added a dedicated contacts module to the dashboard. Store your HOA, utility companies, local plumber, cleaning service, and anyone else important to the property. Tap to call or email directly from the app, filter by category, pin your most used contacts to the top, and search across everything in seconds.

Dwelly opened to its first beta users. Core features live including Reservations, Inventory, Shopping List, Expense Tracker, Departure Checklist, Maintenance Log, Announcements, and Inventory Threshold Alerts.

Dwelly was built from the ground up in just 10 days. Domain purchased, brand finalized, app built with React and Supabase, Stripe payments integrated, and dwellyco.com went live with a coming soon page and email waitlist.
