What’s new · shipping log
Xona keeps shipping.
Every release, in the words your front desk would use — no jargon, no roadmap promises. If it’s on this page, it’s already running in live clinics.
September 6, 2026
- Improved
Patients are greeted by the name your system actually has for them
Texts and calls now address a patient by the name resolved from your practice system instead of the first word of their full name. Two-word first names are no longer cut in half, and siblings who share a first word are not greeted identically.
- Improved
You are told when Xona corrects a booked time
When Xona's check after a call finds a booking in the wrong slot and corrects it, the change is written to the patient's history and the patient is texted about the new time. The correction no longer happens quietly.
- New
Recall now works a patient list you can see and steer
Recall has its own pages: Overview shows how many patients are overdue and what Xona is doing, Plan shows today's work, and Patients lets you look up one person and see every text and call they have had. Settings is where you set how hard Xona tries - how many attempts, how far apart, and whether it texts, calls, or both.

- Fixed
Callers are told the truth when your practice system is briefly unreachable
If your practice management system cannot be reached for a moment (for example while Xona signs back in to it), callers, texters, and online booking now hear that the system is temporarily down and are offered a follow-up from your team. Before, a registered patient could be told their phone number was not on file.
- Fixed
Password reset works however you capitalize your email
Requesting a password reset now finds your account even if you type your email with different capitalization than when you signed up. The confirmation page also reads normally again.
August 30, 2026
- Fixed
Reschedules keep the original appointment type
On Curve, rescheduling now always rebooks the patient's original appointment type with no setup needed. Openings are always the exact visit length, and lunch or blocked time is never offered as an opening.
- New
Curve Dental is now supported
Clinics on Curve Dental can connect from Integrations with automatic sign-in. Xona syncs patients, schedules, availability, recall, birthdays, and cancellations, and can book, reschedule, confirm, and cancel appointments.
- Fixed
Curve Recall now uses your real recare list
Curve practices now see the exact patients and overdue recare count from Curve. Recall no longer estimates this list from visit age.
August 12, 2026
- Fixed
Answered texts now clear from Needs you
When Xona successfully answers a patient's text, that conversation now clears from Needs you. Incomplete answers or delivery problems stay visible for follow-up.
August 10, 2026
- Fixed
Unanswered recall calls now keep moving
When a patient does not answer, Xona records the attempt and safely schedules the next recall step instead of leaving the patient stuck.
August 9, 2026
- Fixed
Reminder language checks finish cleanly in demo-safe workspaces
When you check reminder language in a demo-safe workspace, the result now refreshes in the same page instead of showing a false connection warning.
August 4, 2026
- Fixed
Fewer text conversations get stuck in Needs you
Xona now retries rare incomplete AI replies immediately and recognizes handled acknowledgments, reducing unnecessary Needs-you items and long waits before staff escalation.
August 3, 2026
- Fixed
Calls keep the right language after hello
Xona keeps each call's starting language after ambiguous greetings such as “hello” or “哈喽,” and switches only when the caller clearly asks or continues their request in another language.
August 2, 2026
- Fixed
Natural clinical terms in multilingual calls
When discussing appointment providers, Xona now uses natural terms such as doctor or dentist in the caller's language instead of literal internal wording.
- Fixed
Open-chair opportunities look like schedule openings
Today's open-chair rows now use a calendar icon and the right localized label, so real PMS openings no longer look like sample patients or broken initials.
- New
Send reminders before appointment-free days
When a reminder date falls in a stretch with no appointments, Xona can move that batch to the previous appointment day while keeping the exact appointment date in every message.
