Changelog / Enhanced User Marketing/GDPR UI and Streamlined SDK Test License Creation

Enhanced User Marketing/GDPR UI and Streamlined SDK Test License Creation

This week we are deploying small feature enhancements to our Developer Dashboard.

Better Marketing/GDPR UI under Users

When navigating to Users → Specific User in the Developer Dashboard, we’ve refined the UX of the Marketing Email section.

User marketing or GDPR status under the Freemius Developer Dashboard

The section indicates whether the customer has consented to receive marketing emails (either during Checkout or when installing the free version of your product).

  1. The section now starts collapsed by default, giving more space to the more frequently used information above the fold.
  2. The section title is now dynamic, so you can instantly understand the user’s marketing consent status at a glance.

Faster License Creation for SDK Integration

Some time ago, we introduced a button in the SDK Integration page to quickly create a license while going through our 5-minute SDK onboarding steps.

However, the button still required choosing plans and pricing, unnecessarily slow when makers simply want to test the integration flow.

With that in mind, we’ve streamlined the UX so that clicking the button now automatically generates a license under the first paid plan without asking for any additional input.

We hope this small improvement makes your integration workflow even smoother.
