Here at Orchidea, our focus is on creating the best platform for your innovation activities - and this month was no exception. Here's what's new:

- **Create proposals anywhere, anytime with Orchidea mobile app**
- **Change proposal status by sending a task**
- **Orchidea helps you create strong passwords**
- **RSS feed is now available**
- **Reporting on the proposal process duration**

 

 

## Create proposals anywhere, anytime with Orchidea mobile app

## ![Mobile app](https://info.orchidea.dev/hs-fs/hubfs/Mobile%20app.png?width=304&height=304&name=Mobile%20app.png)

 

Orchidea mobile app is here! In the app, you can explore and interact with proposals created in channels and challenges, as well as create new ones.

Start collaborating now on the go and download it from [App Store](https://apps.apple.com/fi/app/orchidea-innovations/id1635738424?l=fi) or [Google Play](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.orchidea.app&hl=en&gl=US).

 

[Learn how to use the app](https://knowledge.orchidea.dev/en/knowledge/navigating-the-orchidea-mobile-app)

 

 

## Change proposal status by assigning a task

![undraw_Accept_tasks_re_09mv](https://info.orchidea.dev/hs-fs/hubfs/undraw_Accept_tasks_re_09mv.png?width=312&height=223&name=undraw_Accept_tasks_re_09mv.png)

 

Simplify your process with improved automation features. You can now enable a setting that changes the status of the proposal when a task is assigned to it.

For example, when you assign a task to evaluate the proposal, its status automatically changes from new to evaluation. To take advantage of this upgraded functionality, simply turn it on in your [form settings](https://knowledge.orchidea.dev/en/knowledge/form-settings).

 

 

## Orchidea helps you create strong passwords

![password strength](https://info.orchidea.dev/hs-fs/hubfs/password%20strength.jpg?width=277&height=277&name=password%20strength.jpg)

 

Orchidea's password strength indicator pinpoints the security of your password and guides you to create strong passwords.

It detects the most common passwords and ensures that the password is long and complex enough.

 

 

## RSS feed is now available

![undraw_Post_re_mtr4](https://info.orchidea.dev/hs-fs/hubfs/undraw_Post_re_mtr4.png?width=324&height=239&name=undraw_Post_re_mtr4.png)

Introducing the RSS feed feature - keep everyone up-to-date and share the latest Orchidea activities e.g. to your intranet or website.

Set it up on settings and customize it to include events from channels or challenges of choice and control whether it includes new proposals or comments.

[See how to do it here](https://knowledge.orchidea.dev/en/knowledge/rss-feed)

 

 

 

## Reporting on the proposal process duration

![time in process (1)](https://info.orchidea.dev/hs-fs/hubfs/time%20in%20process%20(1).jpg?width=289&height=289&name=time%20in%20process%20(1).jpg)

 

We have enhanced the reporting of proposals to give you better insights into your process duration.

Now you can easily monitor how long proposals are taking to move through the process - from submission to approval or archiving. To access this report, navigate to the Time in process under the channel charts menu.

[Read more about it here](https://knowledge.orchidea.dev/en/knowledge/channel-reporting-charts)

 

## Minor updates

- Enhanced classification features - you can make sub-classification mandatory in the settings.
- Channel chart reports are now found from the settings menu on the right instead of a dropdown.

 

 

 Keep an eye out for more updates. As always, if you have any feedback or suggestions, please don't hesitate to let us know. Thank you for using Orchidea!
