New
Experiments can now be 'Reset' using the action menu available in any of the experiment tabs. This is in addition to delete.
Reset moves an experiment back to an unscored idea. Delete removes an experiment and idea entirely.

Search design improvements
Improvement
Real-time search has received a few design tweaks and improvements:
- New icons

The goal is to make it easier to scan the results quickly.
Shared link design updates
Improvement
We've overhauled the design of shared experiment links for both desktop and mobile devices.
This includes small tweaks to further refine elements such as line height and spacing, as well as quote and code block styling.
You can view a public shared experiment link here https://app.growthmethod.com/gallery/growthhackers-experiments.
Experiment versioning
New
When completing an experiment you will now see the dialog below, which provides 4 options:
- Copy secure link (to share with stakeholders)
- Create a new version of the experiment
- Create a new idea
- Do nothing
Selecting 'Create new version' will create a new experiment automatically, with the stage automatically, removing the need to create and score an idea.
A small version annotation will be added to the experiment in all views and reports, and a version history enables you to view and navigation between all versions.
Versions can have the same number, or different names, so you can create versions such as:
- Optimise Identity & Access Management guide SEO v1
- Optimise Identity & Access Management guide SEO v2
- Optimise Identity & Access Management guide SEO v3
Or create versions such as:
- Implement new CRO solutions page template for network v1
- Implement new CRO solutions page template for cloud v2
- Implement new CRO solutions page template for v3
As we have written about previously, agile marketing and experimentation are the modern day answer to 100+ year old waterfall project planning. Our new versioning functionality is designed to make implementing agile marketing within your organisation a breeze.
New widget display options
Improvement
The ideas submitted dashboard widget can now be configured to show all ideas, top scored ideas, or unscored ideas.
No more lost updates, autosave is here
New
We have implemented autosave on experiments to enhance the saving experience and make lost work a thing of the past.
Growth Method will now autosave the design, hypothesis and results fields on experiments every 2.5 seconds after a change is made.
Autosave operates in the background and is completely transparent to you as a user, so you can work safe in the knowledge that none of your work will get lost, even if you forget to save it yourself.

New
All reports have had a design update and now feature a more modern dual-tone style as below:
