> Astalty updates released on 6 November 2025: Search by Phone Number; Updated Xero Integration Page; Bug Fixes.

## Search by Phone Number

No more playing hide and seek with landline numbers! You can now search by any phone number within [Participants](https://app.astalty.com.au/participants) and [Contacts](https://app.astalty.com.au/directory/contacts).

Previously, our search only recognised numbers in the Mobile Number field - leaving those trusty landlines out in the cold. But not anymore! Searches will now include numbers stored in the Phone Number (landline) field too.

Whether it's a mobile, a landline, or something in between, you'll find who you're looking for faster than ever.

## Updated Xero Integration Page

We've given the [Xero Integration](https://app.astalty.com.au/settings/integrations/xero) section a little tidy-up to make your workflow smoother!

The settings have now been split into two clear sub-pages - **Overview** and **Charge Items** - so you can find exactly what you need, faster.

It's a small change, but one that's all about making navigation easier and helping you manage your integration settings with less scrolling and more clarity.

## Bug Fixes

### Edit and Copy Task Name

This bug was living a double life: friendly to mouse users, but cold and unresponsive to those on touch screens. One side good, one side... not so much.

We've restored balance to its fractured code! Touch screen users in the [Task Board](https://app.astalty.com.au/tasks/task-board) will now always see the task name Edit and Copy buttons, while mouse users will still have them appear gracefully on hover.

The Task Board no longer flips a coin to decide who gets the buttons - Justice has been served. The old Harvey Dent would be proud.
