About Dialpad
April release batches a broad UCaaS and contact-center refresh; recent feed has scrape noise.
On April 4 Dialpad pushed a wide release touching iOS UX (new calling experience, faster message catch-up), contact-center tooling (AI Scorecard multiple choice, follow-up questions, WFM schedule notifications via Dialbot), workplace plumbing (3-digit extensions, channel sort by priority, follow-up reminders), and branding (co-branded app header). Two later entries in the feed are not releases — they are website CTAs ("Call sales", "Or explore our suggestions") captured by the changelog scraper. Real cadence is therefore one batched release plus subsequent silence.
