Milestone alerts — Get notified when a competitor crosses key thresholds: 1K, 5K, 10K, 50K, 100K, 500K, or 1M active installs, and when their rating hits 4.0, 4.5, 4.8, or 5.0
Opportunity signals — Rivale now detects exploitable moments: rating drops, install stalls, and support quality degradation. Each signal fires once per 30-day window so you’re not spammed
Content-rich notifications — Changelog and README alerts now include a summary of what actually changed, categorized by type (new feature, bug fix, security, etc.). Works in both Slack and email
Improved
App loads noticeably faster — eliminated redundant data refetching on every tab switch, parallelized dashboard queries, and moved fonts to non-blocking loading
Subscription status checks reduced from every 60 seconds to every 5 minutes, cutting unnecessary API calls
Refreshed visual design — Plus Jakarta Sans headings, tighter layout density, and green accents on active navigation
Fixed
Super admin permissions now survive database migrations
“While You Were Away” summary now correctly shows events from the last 7 days instead of sometimes showing stale data
Compare page Content tab no longer shows empty state when viewing changelog comparisons
Activity feed now displays all event types including milestones, opportunity signals, and forum health changes (previously some events were missing from the feed)
Review auto-tagging expanded from 3 to 8 categories — low-star reviews now classify as Bug, Missing Feature, Poor Support, Performance Issue, UI/UX Complaint, Compatibility Issue, Documentation Gap, or Pricing/Value Concern (previously 80% were tagged as “Other”, now expected to drop to 30-40%)
