Thank you for choosing us as your go-to virtual assistant service. We look forward to exceeding your expectations.

We launched the rollover feature in 2020 to assist our clients better during the height of the pandemic. However, since then, we have found that with dedicated assistants, this feature is not very sustainable. As a single person cannot extend their day beyond 24 hours (really an 8 hour work day), it became difficult for dedicated assistants to keep up with sudden surges of task credit usage from clients that had been inactive for some time.

Please note that our terms of service has always stated that task credits will not rollover, as we were unsure if we'd be able to keep it available long term. We may rework this feature in the future to make it more sustainable, but for now we are ending this feature to focus our efforts on more important improvements to our service, for which there will be further announcements in the near future.

You will have until September 1, 2022 to take advantage of any remaining rollover credits you have.

We appreciate your understanding.

While we are a fully remote team and we've all been following standard safety procedures in our personal lives, this Omicron variant hasn't been very kind to us.

Nearly half of our team is currently COVID positive. At this time, all of them are experiencing mild to moderate symptoms. They are all taking the time needed to recover in their homes and are being remotely monitored by medical doctors.

The remaining team members are doing their best to keep up with our task load, but delays are expected. We ask for your patience and understanding, and apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. We will be back to normal operating capacity as soon as possible.

Hi everyone! I hope you've had a fantastic week! This is the OkayRelax development team dropping by with a quick update.

We have worked hard to update a few more portions of our new theme this week.

• Those upgrading plans will have a more pleasant experience. No reason to mention it. At all. 😉
• When viewing your plan details, information will feel more structured and nicer to read through.
• We have also improved how the task submission process starts out. Picking a virtual assistant or the task pool or the support team will feel more natural now.
• Those leaving our service can more easily pick from a few pre-written options as to why they are leaving. We've also updated some notices, so they are less confusing. Overall, just because you're leaving doesn't mean we don't miss you already!

Above all -- we launched a new landing site that feels modern, pleasant to navigate, and more joyful all around. Still more updates to come. Have a happy weekend and, as always, relax -- we've got you covered. 😊

Our task system has been a bit under the weather recently. We have been hard at work debugging the issue, and are confident a fix will be shipped soon.

We are sorry for any inconvenience you are facing at this time, and cannot imagine the difficulty you are facing without your VA available to you at certain times of the day.

A follow-up announcement will be made right here once the fix is live.

A few small improvements this week! The most prominent one: due date feature which was removed temporarily is now back! You can access it on the create task page.

Here's a the complete changelog:

- Sometimes the website would say "Due Date" but no date would be listed. This has been fixed.

- On the new task page, you now get a uniform datepicker to pick a date.

- Only VAs can change a due date once set by either party.

- The "Due Date" field is shown in the "Task Information" sidebar panel - where it belongs. 😊

- Error alert messages are now uniformly styled, similar to information alert messages.

- When logged in, clicking the OkayRelax logo will now take you to the tasks page (our new home page!), instead of our landing site.
