Every release and improvement we've shipped. From the first prototype to public launch.

You're currently using Déblo v1.0.1.

v1.0.1

Minor May 18, 2026

More human voice + mobile polish

  • Faster, more natural voice conversation: Déblo replies in under a second, adapts its tone to the topic, and politely wraps up before hanging up.
  • Web search during the call: ask about news, a price, or a fact, Déblo looks it up and answers while you keep talking.
  • Photos and documents mid-call: send a homework photo or a PDF during the call, Déblo reads it and continues the conversation without breaking flow.
  • Multi-currency balance by voice: ask "what's my balance?", Déblo answers in your local currency, in USD, and in EUR — no need to ask for the conversion.
  • Clear back button in chat: jump straight back to home from any conversation, no hidden gesture.
  • Bottom sheets fixed: confirmation buttons are now fully visible on iPhone SE, mini, and every compact Android.

v1.0.0

Launch May 12, 2026

Public launch — the result of a year of work

  • Unified wallet: replaces the legacy credits + voucher split. One balance, one ledger, full transparency on every transaction.
  • Gateway-based payment bonuses: Wave, MTN, Orange Money, Moov, and XPAYE now offer differentiated bonuses on every top-up.
  • Voice Pro unlocked: real-time voice conversations for professionals — legal, audit, SYSCOHADA accounting, HR, IT, communications, marketing — with a 1.5× price tuned to complex reasoning.
  • Org wallet migration: schools and companies manage their shared wallet with a full admin ledger and adjustment history.
  • Multilingual voice: Déblo speaks French and English natively, with a voice profile tuned per audience (student vs. pro).
  • Companion: a single entry point that automatically detects whether your question is school or pro.
  • Crème Ocre redesign: new visual identity and full dark mode across every screen.

v0.9.0

Major May 11, 2026

Final stretch — wallet hardening and mobile parity

  • Organisation screens on mobile: one-shot member add, allocate-to-member, transfer-to-pool, member kebab (role, status, PIN reset, removal).
  • Welcome bonus + overdraft credit: $0.50 granted on signup and a $1.00 overdraft so a session never gets cut mid-answer.
  • Wallet page redesign: balance card on top, voucher repositioned, top-up tiers converted to the user's local currency, vertical gateway dropdown.
  • Mobile login by access code: short authentication for students and org members without a personal phone number.
  • Transaction history reworked: promoted KPIs, channel filters, PDF receipt sharing, post-payment status screen after deeplink return.
  • Installable web app (PWA): manifest and service worker so Déblo installs from any browser, alongside the native apps.
