    Hi team, we thoroughly appreciate all the feedback we’ve received from customers about the new homepage experience. We hear you and are committed to providing more customisation options, which’ll help with some of the pain points raised in this idea.

    Currently we’re exploring the ability to resize widgets and simplify widgets and allow you to remove charts, and as you'll see from my recent update on another idea we have plans for exploring 'views' in the coming months.

    It’s worth noting that currently you can "Customise" the homepage to remove widgets that you don’t want to see and simplify your view.

    We’d also like to acknowledge feedback here on the red colouring - To provide some insight this was intentional, and is used to highlight what needs attention, which actually came from our early feedback and testing. However, we appreciate hearing from more users on this and will continue to…

    Hi everyone, we appreciate and want to thank everyone for feedback on the responsiveness of the new Homepage. This has been shared back with our product teams as they continue to develop this experience.

    At this stage, there are no plans to fix the number of columns when using the Homepage. However, our team will continue to monitor usage on this closely.

    One recent change we’ve introduced is that the Homepage layout can be saved at each screen size.

    For example, if you set up and save the Homepage layout for your laptop and then move to a larger monitor you’ll see this adapt. However, if you ‘edit’ the Homepage and save the layout separately from your monitor Xero will remember the layout for each screen size. You should only need to do this once for each screen you use.

    We’re looking at enhancing the edit layout experience soon to…

    I use Xero every day on my 4 entities. I rely on the widgets staying in one place so I can see at a glance what my bills vs cash/invoiced work is to ensure I keep on top of my cash flow. Now that they have moved to an HTML flow (no doubt to save having to produce different code for different devices), they just move of their own accord as screen size is increased and decreased so there is no familiarity.

    A huge step backwards and one that will make me seriously consider moving all my entities to another platform after 15 years of being happy with Xero

    This is an accounting platform. I want it to deliver quietly in the background. I don't want ideas or new releases, I just want it to work and not go backwards. This new homepage is a massive step backwards

    Allow me to place widgets on a page rather than put them in an order that flows from one line to another. The new layout is completely unusable.

    I use Xero for 4 entities at the moment and have done for about 15 years and this one "feature" is enough to make me seriously consider moving all of them to a different accounting platform with all the pain that would involve and all the loss of history.

    It is THAT AWFUL
