Main Roadmap

Add meeting-room capability as a shared attribute across all place types (coworking, libraries, cafés, public spaces, etc.), with optional metadata such as hourly booking, capacity, cost, and phone booths.

In Review

Universal Meeting Facilities

The search bar isn’t easily discoverable because it’s within the filter panel. It should live above the list and always be visible.

Make Search Bar Always Visible (Sit Above List)

Feedback from NZ Tech Startup Ecosystem: - It would be nice if under the Amenities section an “Open 24/7” options was included.

Add "Open 24/7" Filter

A small, easy-to-use time zone tool with New Zealand set as the default. Quickly see what time it is in another country (including daylight saving), and easily swap between “their time → NZ time” and “NZ time → their time”.

Simple NZ time zone converter

Suggestion from NZ Tech Startup Ecosystem: “Ahh next I would love an app version of your site which just shows me quickly any around me. 😛. Info quick and easy for me as I’m wandering around a big city (Auckland / Wellington)”

Native Mobile Apps

Suggested in NZ Tech Startup Ecosystem: “Next I’d work on improving the input for entering a new place. If I already selected the address it seems silly to also go re enter the region and city. When entering times open it could be a little smarter and auto use the input from the previous day (eg if I put opens at 7am in the first one when I go to the second day it should auto start at 7am since almost every place I know has consistent start and end times for most days. Finally maybe some suggestions on what to put in the description could be useful or perhaps separate fields. Such as asking the user how friendly is staff, is it staffed, how much space/seating, etc. or give some good examples for the description so people know what you are looking for instead of it being so open ended.”

Completed

Open times - Auto start from first entry

Enable swipe-down to dismiss mobile place card, preventing accidental page refresh

Mobile Optimisation: Swipe Away Place Details (Prevent Pull to Refresh)

If a user suggests a place and it’s accepted, they should receive a confirmation and thank you email from NZ Remote.

Confirmation Email Once Suggested Place is Accepted

Suggested in NZ Tech Startup Ecosystem: Review and fix SPF, DKIM, and DMARC DNS records to improve email deliverability and prevent transactional emails from landing in spam.

Suggestions for Places 'Description' Field

At the moment links look like this:<ul><li><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" class="link" href="https://nzremote.com/Regions/Details/3">https://nzremote.com/Regions/Details/3</a></li></ul>They would look better for sharing if they looked more like this (with the name of the page at the end of the trail):<ul><li><a target="" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" class="link" href="https://nzremote.com/regions/3/waikato">https://nzremote.com/regions/3/waikato</a></li></ul>

Pretty Links for URLs

Suggested in NZ Tech Startup Ecosystem: “Looking good so far! Here’s some feedback from my experience for far: - You may want to consider updating “Came Amenities” to “Locations Amentities” since the places listed aren’t exclusively cafes.”

Rename "Cafe Amenities" to just "Locations"

As mentioned in NZ Tech Startup Ecosystem: “Next I’d work on improving the input for entering a new place. If I already selected the address it seems silly to also go re enter the region and city. When entering times open it could be a little smarter and auto use the input from the previous day (eg if I put opens at 7am in the first one when I go to the second day it should auto start at 7am since almost every place I know has consistent start and end times for most days.

Region + city auto-fill when adding a place

Feedback in NZ Tech Startup Ecosystem: “Nice idea. First thing I’d do is enable SSO login on Google and Microsoft. Speed up on boarding.”

Enable SSO login on Google and Microsoft. Speed up on boarding.
