> Filter alerts by assignee, escalation policy and date, read a clearer alert timeline, and get guided through setting up voice and push notifications.

### Alert list
- New filters for **assignee** (including unassigned), **escalation policy** and **created date**, gathered in a Filters panel. Search also matches alert labels.
- Filters are kept in the address, so a filtered view can be bookmarked or shared.

### Alert timeline
- A redesigned timeline: events are coloured by what they mean, notes appear as chat bubbles, and notification events name the person who was notified.

### Notification settings
- Turning on voice calls without a verified phone number now walks you through verifying it, and turns the channel on once that is done.
- Turning on push explains how to register a device with the mobile app.
- Each channel says where it sends: "Calls to …", "Emails to …", "Sends to your mobile devices".

### Also in this release
- Searchable people pickers in schedules and escalation policies, and a new date and time picker.
- On incidents, **Acknowledge** is now **Mark Identified**.
- Comments can be posted on the alert timeline again.
- A repeating escalation no longer calls the same person again immediately.
- Push notifications on Android appear as heads-up alerts.
