Hi everyone, we appreciate the interest surrounding this idea, however we want to be open that we're unable to extend our log-out time past 60 minutes. Xero hold a lot of sensitive information including bank data and we're required to be as secure as online banking.
Any session information running on a web browser can potentially be stolen. If the session does not time out. You then have an infinitely long vulnerability window to session hijacking. Our best option is to keep a tight expiration window on the session cookie, and regenerate them frequently. Even setting a long timeout doesn't help with this - too long a timeout will greatly increase the risk of invasion or potentially jeopardise your personal data and the safety and integrity of the Xero application itself. This is why we maintain control of this.
If we detect there's been no activity on a page (e.g…

Hi team, thanks for sharing this! We can see how resizable widgets would make the Partner Hub feel more tailored to each practice. Some teams might want a big view of their Alerts, while others prefer a compact Time Summary—being able to adjust widget sizes would make the dashboard feel more like your own workspace.
Currently, fixed-size widgets can make key information feel crowded or require extra clicks to see more rows of data.
We’ve moved this idea to Gaining Support so our product teams can understand the demand for a more flexible dashboard. We’d love to hear from you—which widgets would you most like to expand or resize?

Thanks for your feedback here, everyone. We appreciate hearing how we can keep developing Tax Manager to better your experience.
As you may be aware Tax Manager is currently in beta and was released early for some users so you could access ready to start returns and the lodgment widget.
We're currently working on other features to build on this feature and you can stay up to date with what's in the pipeline on our Xero central page.
Filtering by partners and managers is on our radar too, and I'll shift the idea to Accepted for now, and be sure to share any progress for this here.

Hi everyone, thanks for your engagement on this idea! We completely understand why it matters, especially for our global Partners. A person’s name is a big part of who they are, and having to simplify or change it just to fit into a software field can be frustrating and confusing.
We’ve moved this idea to ‘Gaining Support’ so our product teams can see its impact. Are there particular characters or languages where you notice this most?

Second this. Having more white space makes it feel modern, but it also makes life harder. I am having to scroll a lot more with the new updates, which is making simple tasks take longer.
When adding or editing a job, the Description box is quite small on default and has to be expanded so you can see what you are writing. It made more sense to have this box be larger by default to see the majority of what is written.
There is also an inconsistency on font size, which is making reading the page less intuitive. Having the staff names under schedule information in such a small font is hard to read compared to the larger font of everything else.
Additionally, having the print job and edit job buttons in the top right of the screen in a small grey button makes it harder to find compared to the original XPM. This is something that should have stayed central to the job, not banished to a corner in smaller font.
