We are excited to announce the release of the new version of our trip notification application! This release includes a number of new features, improvements, and bug fixes. We believe these new features will greatly enhance your trip planning experience, offering increased flexibility, efficiency, and communication capabilities. 

The new features will be available in several phases starting today till the beginning of June, so stay tuned for more updates and enjoy the Trip Notification App V2!

Starting today the new template of the trip notification must be used to ensure that that the form includes the below updates.

Safari boats can now select the overnight option if they are staying in the jetty before the trip departure and set the required date for the overnight stay in one trip notification.

Users can now create personalized templates with pre-filled boat data, crew details, and onboard professionals. Saving notifications as templates significantly reduces the time and effort required for creating trip notifications in the future as it auto-fills the information which can be edited to match the actual data. 

Users can now duplicate the same boat data, crew list, professionals, and guests onboard to create several trip notifications with different departure and return dates, this option auto-fills the information which can be edited to match the actual data. 

Users can now add an optional phone number to contact the boat crew if needed.

When sharing a trip, the owner of the trip can now limit the number of professionals introduced by the other center sharing the trip to ensure better control and management of guide allocations for shared trips.

All professionals added to a trip will now receive a notification via SMS and email, ensuring seamless communication. 

The application now allows more time to edit or cancel trip notifications based on different intervals:

- For daily trips: 3 hours, as per the starting time of the trip listed in the notification. 

- For safari trips: 6 hours, as per the starting time of the trip listed in the notification.

- For shore trips: Until 5:00 PM, (which allows users to create one permit per day for shore diving and update guests all day long, which is mandatory regardless of the required permit by the Coast Guard Authority).  

The dive site information and guest activity will remain active for editing for 24 hours from the start time of the tip listed in the notification. This allows users to update the trip notification with realistic and accurate data in case of changing the destination or the activities due to weather circumstances or other reasons.

The list of dive sites in the application has been updated to allow users to choose them from a drop-down menu.

The gender field became mandatory and has been added to the Excel template used to upload guest data, ensuring comprehensive information.

A new mandatory field has been added to the application to display the boat sailing license expiry date. This information is listed in the printout required by the Coast Guard Authority.

Various improvements have been made to the user interface for a smoother and visually appealing experience.

The system compatibility with Chrome and Firefox browsers has been adjusted to match the daylight-saving changes in Egypt.

The calendar for departure and return dates has been improved, and the departure and return times now follow convenient quarter-hour intervals.
