Sharesight release notes - April 2019
April has been noteworthy for the pre-release of our Interactive Brokers integration to an enthusiastic beta group. We’ve received a lot of great feedback and will be continuing to enhance and fine tune things over the coming weeks ahead of releasing this to all customers.
There’s been plenty else happening too, read on for more.
Usability
-
Following overwhelmingly positive feedback from our beta users, we Introduced a new ‘sticky’ criteria bar on the overview page, so that you don’t have to scroll up to the top of the page to alter the report settings. This is particularly useful for larger portfolios

-
Added thumbnail icons to the chart selection dropdown
-
A range of small usability tweaks to the add holding form, including a smarter way to pre-fill the exchange rate for foreign investments
-
Substantial performance improvements on the sold shares report, reducing the median page load time by almost 50%

-
Fixes and improved support for 40+ brokers' Trade Confirmation Emails
-
Added support for Internaxx and multi trade Commsec International Trade Confirmation Emails
