Filters on the NextGen story map
The filter feature arrived on the NextGen story map, too. Enjoy the same functionality with some additional benefits:
You can filter cards by assignees
Cards can be filtered by status
Like the previous version, you can select filtered cards and take bulk actions.
Here are some hints what Filters can be used for:
filter what happened while you were away
find cards that are assigned to you
find cards that aren't (and need to be) assigned
find cards that aren't specified
find cards that haven't been synced to the issue tracker yet

Release view 2.0
We gave a massive boost to the Release View (Tracking view on NextGen story map) to make it more helpful in your everyday life.
First things first, a lot happened under the hood — it's now technically merged with the NextGen Story map, which comes with the following benefits:
🏎️ super-fast when switching between story map views and the Release view
🤓 all the great features of the NextGen story map are added
⚡️ it is now real-time (all changes made on other screens or by other users will be visible on each screen)
New features
direct access to story map share and settings menu
you can manage annotations directly from the toolbar
card design from the story map ("..." menu appears on hover)
the card's "..." offers all the actions you can take on the story map (annotations, color, estimate, delete etc.)
update release start/end date
...and you can create new cards directly on the release view 🎉
All the cards you create here are placed into the first column of the story map — "Unordered user stories".

Bulk actions on the NextGen story map
Improve productivity with bulk actions — Similarly to the old user story map, you can select multiple cards with CTRL/CMD + CLICK or by pressing the S key on an active card.
In addition to the good old functions, we added new features. You can change the cards' status or assign/unassign them.
