Sidebar Customization
We've shipped a set of customization features to help you keep important Dashboards front and center
- Add your Favorite Dashboards to the Sidebar from the All Dashboards page or on any individual Dashboard page.
- You can assign a custom emoji to each Dashboard by clicking the icon next to the Dashboard's name.
- You can choose to Pin a Dashboard for everyone in the Project. You can use this feature to highlight the most important Dashboards to your team.
- In addition to hiding the sidebar you can now drag to resize too.

Pin Metrics to refine the Device Timeline
We enabled users to reduce the number of metrics shown on the Device Timeline by pinning what's most relevant for their projects.
- Under Project Settings pin Metrics that are shown on the Timeline as default.
- Toggle 'Show only Pinned Metrics' on and off to switch between views.

Introducing Dark Mode
You request, we deliver. Dark Mode is now available for all Memfault users. Whether you prefer a darker interface for its sleek look or its practicality, this feature is designed to enhance your Memfault experience.
