Weekly product notes

What’s new at VeraDial

One clear update every week across the web app, iPhone, and Android, plus everything that has shipped since VeraDial launched in April 2026. No engineering jargon—and nothing appears here before customers can use it.

A clearer workday, wherever you use VeraDial

The web dashboard now puts follow-up work first, appointment requests get a real workspace, and AI calls can be placed from the browser.

Web

Today starts with what needs you

The web dashboard now brings missed calls, new voicemails, and screened-call follow-ups to the top. When there is nothing waiting, VeraDial says so clearly instead of making you hunt through separate lists.

Web

Appointment requests have a proper workspace

Review open appointment requests, confirm or dismiss them, reopen handled requests, and export the list from the browser. The details and confirmation history stay together so the next action is obvious.

Web

Start and schedule AI calls from the browser

Write the goal for a call, pick the line it should come from, and send it now or schedule it for later — without reaching for your phone.

Web

Calendar and caller ID setup moved to the dashboard

Connect the calendar Vera books onto and confirm the caller ID she calls from, on the same page where you manage your numbers.

Web

Annual billing, if you prefer it

Vera Lite and Vera Plus can now be paid yearly as well as monthly, with the same trial. Monthly stays the default.

VeraDial 1.2.3 also reached the App Store and Google Play this week.

Help where you are, and Vera on your website

Support moved inside the dashboard, your website can answer visitors on its own, and account recovery now points at the fix.

Web

Message support without leaving the dashboard

There is now a support conversation built into the web dashboard. Ask a question where you are working and pick the thread back up later — no separate email chain to dig out.

Web

Vera can answer on your website too

Add a small chat window to your own site and Vera answers visitors there the way she answers callers, capturing the lead and passing it to you.

Web

Keep the dashboard on your home screen

The web dashboard can now be installed like an app, so it opens in one tap on a phone, tablet, or desktop.

iOSAndroid

Recovery points to the next step

Account notices now take you straight to the action that needs attention instead of leaving you to find it. This release also improves reliability across setup, AI calling, and incoming calls.

The mobile changes arrived in VeraDial 1.2.2, on the App Store August 22.

Safer signup, and upgrades you can do yourself

New accounts verify a phone number before they start, and moving from Vera Lite to Vera Plus no longer needs a conversation.

iOSAndroid

Signup now verifies a phone number

New accounts confirm a real phone number before they can start. It keeps throwaway signups off the platform, which protects the numbers and sending reputation of everyone already using VeraDial.

iOSAndroid

Verification codes finish themselves

Completed codes submit automatically as soon as the last digit lands, and supported Android phones can read the verification text for you.

Web

Move from Lite to Plus in a click

Upgrade from the billing page in the web dashboard and the new plan applies immediately, so outbound AI calling is available the moment you need it.

Web

Approve Vera's text replies from the browser

Drafts Vera prepares for inbound texts now appear in the web dashboard, so you can read, adjust, and send them without picking up your phone.

The mobile changes arrived in VeraDial 1.2.1, on the App Store August 12 and on Google Play shortly after.

Talk instead of typing

A microphone button in the texting and Ask Vera composers, password changes you can make yourself, and sharper answers from Vera.

iOSAndroid

Dictate your texts and questions

A new microphone button in the texting and Ask Vera composers turns speech into text, which is faster than thumbs when you are between jobs.

iOSAndroidWeb

Change your password yourself

Set a new password from Settings in the app or the web dashboard, without a reset email.

All

Vera answers common caller questions more accurately

Improvements to how Vera uses your business information mean fewer callers get a vague answer about hours, pricing, or location.

Web

A guided path from Zapier key to a working Zap

Vera Plus customers connecting VeraDial to Zapier now get step-by-step setup instead of a bare API key.

The mobile changes arrived in VeraDial 1.2.0, on the App Store August 6.

The Vera tab, redesigned

The biggest change to the app so far: your receptionist's status at a glance, the work that needs you up front, and everything Vera already handled below.

iOSAndroid

Your receptionist's status, at a glance

The Vera tab now opens on whether Vera is answering, what needs you, and what she already handled — in that order.

iOSAndroid

Manage Vera in one place

A new Manage Vera hub puts each line's greeting, business information, and call routing together instead of scattering them across settings screens.

iOSAndroid

Vera books appointments onto your Google Calendar

When a caller asks for a time, Vera can put it straight on your calendar rather than leaving you a note to do it later.

iOSAndroid

Call routing that reads in the order calls happen

Routing settings are now listed in the exact sequence a call travels, so it is clear what happens when someone dials you.

iOSAndroid

Incoming calls connect more reliably

Calls now come through dependably even when the app has not been opened in a while, and texting verification status is shown in one place.

VeraDial 1.1.0 reached the App Store on August 1, and the same update rolled out on Google Play.

Faster setup, and plans you control

Import a line's business profile from Google, switch plans from Settings, and see at a glance that call forwarding is really on.

iOSAndroid

Build a line's profile from your Google listing

Pull hours, address, and business details straight from your Google Business listing instead of typing them in, so Vera answers accurately on day one.

iOSAndroid

Switch plans from Settings

Move between Vera Plus and Vera Lite yourself, whenever your month calls for it.

iOSAndroid

Proof that call forwarding is active

A live freshness check shows whether forwarding is genuinely working, rather than only whether you dialed the code once.

iOSAndroid

Texting polish

Photos size correctly, and the newest message stays in view while Vera drafts a reply.

The mobile changes arrived in VeraDial 1.0.8, on the App Store July 13.

See where calls come from, and what Vera got done

A map of your callers, one-tap call-backs from voicemail, and AI call results that read like a message slip instead of a transcript.

iOSAndroid

A map of where your callers are

History now has a Map view showing where your calls are coming from — useful when you are deciding which areas are worth advertising in.

iOSAndroid

Call back or text back from a voicemail

Respond straight from the voicemail or call detail instead of copying a number out and dialing it.

iOSAndroid

AI call results arrive as outcome cards

When Vera makes a call for you, the result comes back as a clear card — who she spoke to, when, and any confirmation number — instead of something you have to read through.

iOSAndroid

Hear Vera before you use her

New to AI calls? Have Vera call you first. It is a free demo call so you know exactly how she sounds before she speaks to a customer.

iOSAndroid

Larger text, and safer sign-out

Better support for larger text sizes across the app, and signing out now signs out only the device you are on.

These arrived in VeraDial 1.0.5, 1.0.6, and 1.0.7 on the App Store between July 1 and July 10.

Per-line answering, spam filters, and call tracking

The release that turned VeraDial from one answered number into a system you can run a business on.

iOSAndroid

One line Vera answers, another that rings you

Set answering per line, so Vera can pick up your public number while another number still rings your phone directly.

iOSAndroid

Tell Vera about your business

A new Business Information screen holds your address, email, hours, pricing, and policies, so Vera answers callers with real details instead of generalities.

iOSAndroid

Spam filters

Block unwanted numbers outright, and send toll-free robocalls to voicemail so they stop interrupting your day.

iOSAndroid

Call tracking numbers

Give each ad, sign, or flyer its own number and see which one is actually driving calls and texts.

iOSAndroid

See the whole conversation Vera had

Open any call to read the full screening conversation, and "Handled by Vera" now includes the texts she answered, not just the calls she screened.

iOSAndroid

A better inbox, including picture messages

Unread badges and search came to the inbox, and picture (MMS) texts are now received.

The mobile changes arrived in VeraDial 1.0.4, on the App Store June 19 and on Google Play the same week.

Polish on the essentials

Two quick updates after launch, focused on the subscription screen, permissions, and reliability.

iOSAndroid

A clearer subscription screen on bigger displays

The purchase layout now holds together properly on larger phones and tablets rather than stretching awkwardly.

iOSAndroid

A simpler Call Map permission step

The permission request for the caller map now explains itself and asks at the moment it makes sense.

iOSAndroid

Reliability fixes throughout

A round of stability work across the app in the weeks right after launch.

VeraDial 1.0.2 and 1.0.3 reached the App Store on May 7.

VeraDial is live

VeraDial arrived on the App Store on April 24, 2026: a dedicated business line with an AI receptionist answering it.

iOSAndroid

A business number of your own

Choose a US or Canadian number inside the app and start using it the same day, separate from your personal line.

iOSAndroid

Vera answers it

Vera picks up, finds out who is calling and why, and hands over the ones that matter — so an unknown number is no longer a coin flip.

iOSAndroid

Nothing gets lost

Calls, voicemail, and texts land in one place, with voicemail transcribed so you can read it when you cannot listen.

First public release on the App Store, April 24, 2026. Google Play followed.

The rule

Available first. Announced second.

Web changes appear after they are live. Mobile changes appear after the matching version is downloadable from the App Store or Google Play. That keeps this page useful as a record of what you can use—not a list of promises. Editions dated before September 2026 were backfilled from App Store and Google Play release history and from web changes confirmed deployed.
