See what's being built on OverSkill — live

A new public page at overskill.com/live shows a real-time pulse of building activity across the platform — how many creators are building how many apps right now.

  • Visit overskill.com/live anytime to see the platform in action
  • Numbers update automatically every 15 seconds
  • Fully anonymous — no names or app details, just aggregate energy

AI credits balance updates instantly after a purchase

After buying credits or joining a membership, your AI credits counter on the main dashboard now refreshes right away — no more seeing zero while your balance is actually topped up.

  • Credits counter reflects your real balance immediately after checkout
  • No need to refresh the page or visit settings to see your updated balance
Fixed Link

Close image previews in the editor with one click

The close button on image previews inside the editor chat now works correctly — clicking the X or the background overlay dismisses the preview as expected.

  • Image lightbox close button and backdrop click now reliably close the preview
  • No more being stuck on an expanded image with no way out

Build time estimate now matches reality

The 'Creating Your App' screen used to promise 30–60 seconds — we've updated it to reflect the real first-build time of around 10–15 minutes so you always know what to expect.

  • No more wondering if something went wrong — the timer you see now matches what's actually happening
  • Honest, plain-language progress messaging from the moment you kick off a new build
Fixed Link

Uploaded images in chat no longer crop or overflow

When you sent a photo in the app builder chat, it could appear squished and cut off next to your message instead of sitting neatly below it. That layout bug is now fixed.

  • Uploaded photos display cleanly below your chat message
  • No more cropped or overflowing images in conversation view
Fixed Link

Images in your published apps now load reliably everywhere

Images stored in subfolders (like a press or team section) were showing as broken in published apps. This is now fixed so every image renders correctly for your end users.

  • Nested image folders no longer produce broken images in production
  • Affects images in any subfolder under your app's image directory
  • No changes needed from you — already-published apps benefit automatically
Fixed Link

Seeding data into your apps works reliably again

Apps that use author-tracked data tables were failing silently when you tried to seed them with starter records — showing a vague error with no clear fix. That's resolved.

  • Seed data now inserts successfully into all table types, including author-tracked ones
  • No more 'Failed to insert any records' errors when setting up your app's initial content
  • Affected apps (like Officehub) will work correctly going forward
Fixed Link

System status banners now match your app's theme

When OverSkill posts a status or incident notice, the banner now adapts to light and dark mode correctly instead of always appearing as a jarring dark strip on a light page.

  • Status banners respect your dashboard's light or dark theme setting
  • Easier to read and no longer visually clashes with the rest of the interface
Fixed Link

Export as ZIP now appears correctly in the publish menu

The Export as ZIP option was missing from the publish screen for nearly all users. It's back in the right place — you can now export your app as a ZIP file directly from the publish menu.

  • Export as ZIP is now visible and usable from the publish modal
  • Works for all users, not just a small subset
  • One fewer reason to leave the app to get your project files
Improved Link

Help article: How buyer credit wallets work (now with screenshots)

The help article explaining how to offer AI credits to your app's buyers is now published and includes annotated screenshots of exactly where to find every setting.

  • Step-by-step visuals showing the credit fields in your plan editor
  • Screenshots of the Monetize AI credits summary so you know what buyers see
  • Available now in the Help Center
Fixed Link

Optimized images load correctly again across all apps

A recent update accidentally caused all optimized images to return a "not found" error. This is now fixed — images in your apps load fast and reliably again.

  • App images display correctly everywhere they appear
  • Fast, optimized image delivery is fully restored
  • No action needed — this is automatic for all apps
Improved Link

Clearer info on how social login works across your apps

The help docs for social login (Google, GitHub) have been updated to accurately explain how sign-in works on the OverSkill platform and what's available today.

  • Docs now correctly explain that login is managed at the platform level, not per-app
  • Apple sign-in availability is accurately documented
  • Reduces confusion for builders configuring sign-in for their users
Fixed Link

Dark mode visitors now see buttons clearly on the join page

The "Get Started" button was showing white text on a light green background for visitors using dark mode on their device — making it nearly invisible. The contrast is now correct and the button is easy to read for everyone.

  • "Get Started" CTA is now readable in dark mode
  • Consistent, accessible button appearance across all devices and OS settings
Fixed Link

First-time app publishing now completes reliably

A sequencing issue caused the very first publish of a new app to get stuck and never fully go live. This is now resolved — your app publishes successfully the first time, every time.

  • First publish no longer stalls or silently fails
  • Apps go live as expected without needing a second attempt

AI-generated app icons now match OverSkill's clean, flat style

App icons created by AI used to come out with glossy gradients that looked out of place. Now every generated icon uses a flat, solid look that fits right in with the rest of your app's design.

  • AI-built icons no longer look like generic stock app icons
  • Generated icons now match OverSkill's flat design style automatically
  • No manual tweaking needed to get a polished, on-brand icon
