What's New in Aphex: April 2023
Multi-Select: Edit, Duplicate or Link together heaps of tasks at once. New Resource Demand Overlay to help with Material Forecasting
We’ve been hard at work behind the scenes, turning your feedback into exciting new features—and we’re thrilled to share what’s new this month!
Effective project management requires both flexibility and clarity. That’s why we’re excited to introduce three powerful updates: Map Rotation, Zoom Expansion, and Resource Tracking Enhancements.
Let’s dive into the details! 👇🏻
Map Rotation for Flexible Views

Our new Map Rotation feature is now available on both the web and mobile apps!
You can now easily rotate real-world maps to match your construction documents or preferred orientation. Rotate in 45-degree increments left or right, or hold Shift and drag to rotate freely until you find the perfect angle.
Your selected orientation will be saved for future use and will carry over when printing—ensuring your on-screen view matches what’s on paper.
Need to reset? Just press ‘N’ to snap back to North and get back to work without any hassle!

Get a Bird’s-Eye View with Year Zoom
Introducing the Year Zoom option in the Gantt View!
Now, you can toggle between Day, Week, Month, and Year zooms to get the perspective you need—whether you’re zeroing in on details or zooming out for the bigger picture.
Your selected zoom level will be saved, so you won’t need to adjust it every time you review your plan. Plus, your chosen zoom level will appear on printouts, so everything looks just right.
Enhanced Resource Tracking

Effective resource management is key to any successful project, and our improved Resource Overlay Card gives you the clarity you need.
Now featuring both percentage splits and actual quantities for each user’s responsibilities, this update allows you to understand resource distribution across tasks in greater detail.
With this information, you’ll have a clearer understanding of who is responsible for what, making it easier to adjust plans and communicate with your team.
