What Changed in Deonde During 2025
Deonde went through one of its most active years in 2025. From a complete platform overhaul mid-year to a 10-feature explosion in December, the delivery software saw changes across every layer — admin dashboards, mobile apps, ordering websites, driver tools, and payment systems.
If you’re running a restaurant, grocery store, dairy business, or multi-vendor marketplace on Deonde, these updates directly affect how you manage orders, track deliveries, and grow revenue. Here’s everything that happened, month by month.
How Deonde Ships Updates Every Month
Deonde follows a continuous release cycle. New features, improvements, and bug fixes roll out regularly through the changelog. Some months bring one focused improvement. Others — like December 2025 — drop an entire batch of features at once. All updates go live automatically for existing subscribers.
January 2025 Updates
The first release of 2025 tackled something every business owner deals with: money tracking.
Enhanced Billing Dashboard Now Live
Deonde introduced a dedicated Billing Transaction Dashboard that puts all your financial data in one place. Before this update, tracking invoices and subscription details meant digging through multiple screens. Now you can:
- View all invoices — paid and pending — in a single list
- Check your current plan details and subscription status at a glance
- Access complete payment history with dates and amounts
- Download invoices instantly for accounting or record-keeping
Everything lives under the Billing section in your dashboard. It’s a small change that saves real time, especially for businesses managing multiple outlets or processing high order volumes.
February–May 2025 Updates
The first half of 2025 focused heavily on the customer-facing ordering experience. Three updates landed between February and May, each polishing how customers interact with your branded website.
A Cleaner Homepage and Better Vendor Details (Feb 12)
Deonde added a dedicated section on the homepage for mobile app download links. If you have a branded iOS or Android app, customers can now find it directly from your ordering site — no hunting through footer links or app store searches.
The vendor details page also got a redesign. Store information — address, hours, contact details, menu highlights — now appears in a cleaner, single-view layout. Customers spend less time scrolling and more time ordering.
Our Web Ordering Site Just Got Better! (May 4)
May brought a broader set of improvements to the web ordering platform:
- Cleaner homepage layout with easier navigation to stores and categories
- Enhanced vendor details showing all store information in one convenient view
- Multiple UI improvements throughout the site making ordering faster and more intuitive
These changes target the core ordering flow. Fewer clicks to find what you want, smoother checkout, and a layout that works better on both desktop and mobile browsers.
Important Login Update — Google & Facebook Removed (May 15)
This one caught some users off guard. Deonde discontinued support for Google and Facebook login due to ongoing technical challenges and privacy concerns with those platforms.
If you were using Google or Facebook to sign in, you needed to switch to email or phone number login before the cutoff. Both methods remain fully supported and secure.
The change affects admin panel access, vendor logins, and customer accounts. It’s a straightforward migration — just update your credentials in the settings.
July 2025 Updates and V3 Launch
July was Deonde’s biggest month of 2025. The company rolled out V3 — a ground-up rebuild of the mobile apps and core platform infrastructure. This wasn’t a minor refresh. It touched everything.
Brand New Hybrid Apps for iPhone & Android
The V3 release introduced completely rebuilt hybrid apps for both iOS and Android. Previously, the two platforms had different feature sets and occasional performance gaps. With V3, both apps now work identically — same features, same speed, same design.
For businesses, this means one consistent customer experience regardless of which phone your customers use. No more fielding support calls about features working on iPhone but not Android.
Super Fast Performance and Beautiful New Design
V3 shipped with improved APIs and faster load times across the board. Orders process quicker, menus load faster, and the real-time tracking system responds with less lag.
The mobile app got a complete visual redesign — fresh typography, cleaner layouts, and a modern look that matches current design standards. The goal was simple: make the app feel like something customers actually enjoy using.
Full Dashboard Control — Customize Everything
One of V3’s standout features is dashboard-level control over the mobile app experience. From the admin panel, you can now customize:
- Login screen — your logo, your colors, your brand identity
- Splash screen — the first thing customers see when they open the app
- Theme colors — match the app to your brand palette without touching code
This level of customization used to require developer involvement. Now it’s all configurable from the dashboard.
Website Update: Faster & More Beautiful! (Jul 21)
Later in July, Deonde pushed a separate update to the ordering website itself:
- Faster page loads across the entire site
- Custom colors for text, buttons, and theme elements
- New category designs with fresh, modern layouts for menu browsing
- Side menu icons for quicker navigation
The website and mobile apps work together as a unified system, and this update brought the web experience closer to the polish of the new V3 apps.
August 2025 Updates
August brought two features that gave businesses more flexibility over how customers access their ordering platform.
New Feature: Turn Off Location Services!
Deonde added the ability to disable location services on your ordering website. When turned off, customers won’t see the location permission popup when they visit your site.
This matters for a few reasons:
- Faster site loading — no location API calls slowing things down
- Better conversion — some customers close sites that immediately ask for location
- Full catalog visibility — when location is off, ALL your stores and vendors appear instead of just nearby ones
You’ll find this toggle under Settings → General → Location Services Required. It applies to web ordering only; mobile app users will need an app update to get the same control.
Your Website Is Now an App! — PWA Feature (Aug 25)
This was a game-changer for businesses that don’t want to deal with app store submissions. Deonde introduced Progressive Web App (PWA) support, which lets customers install your ordering website directly onto their phone’s home screen.
How it works:
- Customers visit your ordering site in their mobile browser
- An install icon appears in the top-right corner
- They tap it, and your site gets added to their home screen
- It works just like a native app — full screen, no browser chrome, fast loading
Setup is simple: go to Settings → Design → PWA, upload the four required icons, and you’re live. No developer needed, no app store review process, no waiting weeks for approval.
September 2025 Upgrades
September focused on operational efficiency — tools that save time for teams managing large menus and high order volumes.
Bulk Upload/Update Items with CSV
Deonde replaced the old Excel-based import system with CSV file support for bulk menu management. You can now upload and update hundreds of items at once using any spreadsheet program — Google Sheets, Excel, Numbers, or any tool that exports CSV.
This is particularly useful for:
- Restaurants with large menus — update prices, descriptions, or availability across hundreds of items in minutes
- Multi-location businesses — push the same menu changes to all outlets simultaneously
- Seasonal rotations — swap out menu items quickly when seasons change
The CSV format is lighter and more universal than Excel, making the process faster and more accessible.
Improved Print Receipts for A4 & Thermal
Both A4 and thermal receipt formats got visual upgrades. A4 receipts now have cleaner layouts with better spacing and formatting. Thermal receipts — the small rolls used in most restaurant kitchens and counter printers — are optimized for compact printing while keeping all essential order details readable.
These aren’t just cosmetic changes. Cleaner receipts mean fewer printing errors, less paper waste, and a more professional experience for your customers.
December 2025 — The Mega Update (10 New Features)
December 2025 was Deonde’s biggest single release of the year. Ten features landed in one update, touching driver management, promotions, customer experience, and admin tools.
Default Driver Tips — Automatic Tips for Every Cart
You can now set automatic driver tips from your dashboard. Once configured, tips apply to every cart automatically — no manual entry required. This helps increase driver earnings without adding friction to the checkout process.
Enhanced BOGO Feature — Buy One Get One Made Simple
Running Buy One Get One promotions used to require manual configuration for each item. The enhanced BOGO feature lets you apply offers to your entire menu with just a few clicks. Perfect for flash sales, loyalty rewards, or seasonal campaigns.
Improved Eagle View — Monitor Live Orders Better
Eagle View — Deonde’s real-time order monitoring dashboard — got a complete redesign. The new interface is cleaner, with better organization of active orders and delivery status. You can see what’s happening across your operation at a glance without clicking through multiple screens.
Better Chat System — Start Chats from Order Pages
Customer support got faster. You can now start chats directly from order pages instead of navigating to a separate messaging section. Quick Replies are also available — save common responses and send them with one tap.
Age Verification (18+) for Restricted Products
For businesses selling age-restricted products like alcohol, Deonde added an age consent popup with date of birth confirmation. Customers must verify their age before completing checkout on restricted items.
New Featured Items Layout
The Featured Items section on your ordering page got a redesigned layout. Best-selling or promoted products now stand out more prominently, driving higher visibility and more orders for your top items.
Vendor Favorites — Let Customers Save Their Top Picks
Customers can now save their favorite restaurants within the app. This creates a shortcut for reorders and builds repeat business — customers don’t have to search for their go-to spots every time.
Customizable Homepage with Tab-Based Layout
The homepage now supports a tab-based layout that you can enable directly from dashboard settings. This gives you more control over how customers browse categories, featured items, and promotions.
Meta Ads Integration — Track Facebook & Instagram
Deonde added direct integration with Meta Ads. Connect your Facebook and Instagram ad campaigns to track performance, measure conversions, and understand which ads drive actual orders.
Product Variants — Sizes, Colors & Customizations
Products can now have multiple variants — sizes, colors, toppings, or any custom attribute. Each variant can have its own price, availability, and image. This is essential for restaurants offering different portion sizes or stores selling products in multiple options.
