Update to the Homepage Dashboard
The PEARS homepage dashboard was redesigned with work-in-progress tracking, completion status, and quick links.
The PEARS homepage dashboard was redesigned in July 2023 to highlight work in progress and provide quick access to key features. Starting June 13, 2024, all users see the new dashboard by default. Users can opt out temporarily through the Manage Account screen (pears.io/accounts/profile/), but the legacy dashboard receives no future updates and will be phased out.
