Buttons now open urls buy default

We took a leap of faith in making our buttons email-based by default. As more feedback came in, we realized this has to be an opt-in feature. Fortunately, this is easy to reconfigure under general settings page > “Email Action Handler” Choose “Compose Email” for email-based actions, or “URL” for […]

Product update feed

We have been hard at work on a major new version of FollowUpThen. As we near our public release, we wanted to create a streamlined way to keep you informed about our latest updates, without overloading your inbox. From time to time, you will notice a small text box right […]

FollowUpThen Version 3 simplifies how to schedule reminders for others.

This can easily be fixed on your general settings page. If your settings are correct, yet you are […]
