1Quick Notes โ€” Faster to find your templated notes

Templated notes were hidden inside a dropdown โ€” staff had to open it, scroll through options, and select one. Now they're visible as clickable chips in a collapsible panel. You can see all your templates at a glance and tap to append. Much faster for high-volume note entry.

Before

Templates hidden inside a dropdown:

Select a note template... โ–ผ
Have to open the dropdown to see what's available. Can only see one at a time.
After

Templates visible as clickable chips:

Spoke with patient Left voicemail Refill requested Follow up scheduled No answer
All options visible at once. One click to append.

2Two-Way Communication Toggle

Previously, "Add Note" and "Add Call With Note" were two separate buttons sitting side by side โ€” easy to hit the wrong one, and unclear what the difference meant. Now there's a clear toggle: flip it on to flag the note as a two-way communication, then submit with a single "Add Note" button. The note then shows a "Two Way Comm" badge instead of the old heavy blue "Call Made" banner.

Before

Two confusing side-by-side buttons:

Add Note Add Call With Note

Notes with calls got a heavy blue banner:

Call Made Jane Smith made a call at 2:30 pm, March 25
After

Clear toggle + single button:

Two way communication
Add Note

Notes show a subtle inline badge:

Jane Smith ๐Ÿ“ž Two Way Comm
