What each part of Home shows, what the greeting line counts and how to hide or bring back a widget.
In short
Home is your first screen after sign-in: a greeting card with what needs you today and the next step, then tiles such as Needs you, Testing health and Activity. A new account sees only the greeting, Get started and what needs you at first; someone already at work here sees every tile, with Get started folded to one line. The header on every screen leads to Products, Jobs, Help, search, your inbox, Ask AI and your account.
Before you start
- Who: anyone. Signed out, Home tells three short stories and offers "Start free".
- Plan: every plan.
- First: nothing. A new account sees only the greeting, Get started and what needs you at first.
Read your Home page
- Read the greeting card. It shows today's date, the workspace you are in, one sentence on what needs you today, one main button for the next step and up to three figures. It also shows "Jump back in", the places you had open last.
- Read the tiles below, starting with Needs you.
- Press "Customize" above the tiles. A panel opens at the side, where you switch tiles on or off and choose what comes first: Automatic, Testing and work, or Hiring. A tile that shows only when it has something to say says so, and the hiring tiles sit together in their own fold.
Find a product
- Open "Products" in the header (point at it, click it, or press Enter or the Down arrow on it).
- Choose a product from its group: Testing (API Tester, SQL Tester, Cache Tester, UI Tester), Work (Boards, Planner, Notes, Designer, Time tracker), Team (Chat, Organizations) or Insights (Analytics, the AI assistant).
- You land where you left off in it, such as the role, stage and candidate you last had open.
On a phone, the bar at the bottom holds Home, Jobs, Search, Inbox and Menu; signed out it holds "Start free". Menu opens the same groups, then Help, your account and the language.
The greeting line
A visit ends after half an hour away. Short breaks, such as a meeting or a coffee, do not reset it.
The tiles
Good to know
- Everything on Home belongs to the workspace shown under the greeting, so an organization's failing APIs, cards and applicants never appear in your Personal Workspace.
- A tile whose module is switched off never shows. Your tile choices are kept for you on every device.
- Automatic leads with hiring when most of your last 30 days here were in Jobs and you have a role here. Your team's testing then folds into one line at the bottom, with Show and "Hide from my Home".
- A product switched off for your workspace stays in Products, greyed out and marked Off, with Turn on if you may switch modules.
- The greeting uses your first name and your device's clock, and says Working late after ten at night.
- Signed out, Home tells three stories - Test, Plan and Hire - of three steps each, every one ending on something to open now, with "Start free" and "See the prices".
- Testing health, Activity and Suggestions wait until Get started is finished or hidden, or until you are clearly at work here - a full Needs you, many checks, several roles, a teammate or a few weeks on the account - unless you switch them on in Customize. Testing health also draws nothing for a goal such as Plan work or Hire until something has run.
- Where a workspace holds examples, Home shows an "Example" chip with "Manage examples", which opens Settings › Examples.
