Thanks for your feedback on the new homepage here. We appreciate what works well and not so well for our customers with the new experience. Our product team have been taking this all onboard as they continue to plan their roadmaps. Since initially released in beta, they've made some changes to the 'Cash in and out' and 'Chart of accounts' widgets so when customising your view you'll now have the options to 'Make larger' or 'Make smaller'.
Right now, they're also considering sizing of other widgets and your contributions in this idea are super useful to their exploration of this. I'll be sure to share any further updates of the sizing of widgets with you all here.

Appreciate the feedback, Douglas and this would be good to get a sense of the interest from others around.
As you've noted the new Homepage is responsive and will auto adjust up to 4 widgets wide based on your device and computer and browsing zoom options.
We don't have any plans around enabling user based customisations to this layout but lets start by getting a gauge from community in this here 🙂

Hi team, this idea has been created off the back of this idea to get a good understanding of the interest in specifically providing temporary Client access to a staff member.
While this isn't somethign we have planned atm, our product team would like to get insight to consider in future planning. Thanks!

Thanks for getting back to me on your needs here, Janet. I'll move the idea back to submitted as we don't have direct plans around this atm. We'll get a sense of the interest from the community here and will keep you updated if any progress is planned.

When I change the default font size on my browser, the new homepage changes the size of widget headings and table column headings, but not the content. This means that I have to change my preferences for all webpages from what works for me everywhere but on Xero pages to what makes Xero usable (and everywhere else unusable). Gross. Let me customise my font to match my usability needs.

We want to thank everyone for the attention this idea has drawn. It’s clear from the many votes and detailed comments that having the ability to pay supplier bills with BPAY from Xero is a high-value feature for our Australian customers.
We understand the desire in this and see how this functionality would enhance your use of Xero, and it is definitely on our radar.
As you may have heard, our product team's current focus is on developing our bill payment solutions like we’ve delivered in the UK to more regions, with sights currently set on AU.
Your feedback here is valuable to the team as we explore what this experience will look like. Though we can’t commit to any timelines as yet, BPAY is a feature that we’ll be aiming to support through our new solution. We’ll keep you updated on further news and progress for this, through the…

Thanks for the feedback, Steve I've passed along your compliments to our support team too.
Out of interest is there anything in particular you'd like to be able to download your support conversations for? e.g would you be wanting to share these somewhere else or file them somewhere to have on hand? This'd be great to share back with our team.
For the time being, as you might've found (though a little manual) - you can copy & paste the detail of a support case internal an external document such as Google Docs or MS Word.

Hi Sam, appreciate you sharing this idea — we understand where you're coming from.
Being able to quickly see your Xero subscription plan from within your organisation’s settings would definitely make things easier. Having to jump to a different section just to check your plan or see what features are included isn’t ideal, especially when you’re trying to make quick decisions.
At the moment, this info isn’t shown in the Organisation Settings, but you can view your plan by going to My Xero from the main menu and clicking on the Subscriptions tab. That’s where you’ll find your current plan and any add-ons.
This idea is now in the Gaining Support stage. If this change would make things simpler for you, feel free to vote or leave a comment — your feedback helps us understand what matters most and where we can improve.

Rather more than two years after originally posting this, Xero still fails WCAG.

Xero currently fails the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG). This means that people with accessibility needs are locked out of being able to use Xero effectively.
https://www.w3.org/WAI/WCAG21/quickref/
A quick scroll through shows that Xero fails a number of criteria, such as:
- 2.1 Keyboard Accessible (for example, on the new bills page, tabbing through the page includes tabbing through the search bar, and when you tab through the date fields this causes today's date to be included as a filter, which cannot be immediately undone using the keyboard without tabbing through to another field)
- 2.4.7 Focus visible (if you tab through the page, can you see what you've tabbed to? Xero fails on the invoices page)
- 1.4.12 Text spacing (I'd really like to reduce the spacing between columns in tables, to increase the readability, but I can't figure out how. Compact view helps with the distance between lines, but not enough, and I can't figure out how to change that)
- 1.4.8 Visual presentation (the ability to switch between compact and regular view is not available on all pages)I can't say that the WCAG cover all situations, and there's certainly a bunch of best practices with regards to presentation that aren't specified in the Guidelines, but they are the bare minimum to ensure Xero is not in breach of the Disability Discrimination Act and to ensure that people like me can use the product they're paying for.

We're interested to understand the interest in being able to add multiple emails to a clients record, for the purposes of setting these up for different purposes.
It would be great to hear more detailed feedback from our partners on the particular purposes you'd want to set up emails for and how this would help you through Xero's practice tools. Thanks!

I would dearly love to be able to resize either the line item font size or the size of the widget for the chart of accounts widget, so that I no longer have the names of accounts wrapping over two or three lines.
Actually, I'd like to be able to resize the fonts throughout the entire thing so that the headers within tables aren't tiny compared to the table contents (which makes the table more functional and is a basic design principle) and change the colour of certain things to something more user-friendly but everything new in recent years has been programmed without basic user-interface design principles (such as keeping the number of variations of font, font size, and font colour to a minimum) in favour of 'pretty' things that are unusable if you have any kind of Accessibility requirement. So I don't think Xero wants me or my clients to pay them money.
