Hi everyone,

The spring season brings a list of little big updates that make using Heybegin a tiny bit better.

Delete workspaces

You can now easily delete your workspace under the Workspace Preferences page. Open the settings menu and tap on the "Workspace" icon.

Transfer workspaces

Good news for those looking to transfer workspace ownership: it's now possible via the People page. However, remember that once you transfer ownership, you will lose control over certain settings.

The Detailed view now displays every time block along with its statuses, making it easier to identify incomplete time blocks.
