A faster panel, reliable AI chats and more backup control
Enjoy a lighter customer panel, working product AI chats, more control over daily backups, and easier shopping and service management on phones and tablets.
This release makes everyday hosting management lighter and more dependable. Product AI chats work again, more services offer daily backup controls, and a broad round of mobile improvements keeps shopping, settings and server tools easier to use.
Faster everyday management
- Load less when opening the panel. Customer pages download smaller stylesheets and lighter page documents, while dedicated server tabs load individually with matching loading placeholders.
- Keep service pages steady while work happens. Dashboard cards retrieve current metrics more efficiently, service transitions trigger fewer whole-page refreshes, and gameserver actions avoid duplicate reloads. Background checks also pause more consistently when a browser tab is hidden.
- Spend less time loading the website and support chat. Public pages load less unrelated code and perform less layout work, while decorative animations put less strain on the page. The support widget also downloads less upfront and avoids competing with initial panel loading on touch devices.
More dependable AI and support
- Use product AI chats again. Fixed failures affecting conversations that include service context. Prompt suggestions now step aside while an unanswered choice card is open, then return after you reply.
- Get advice that better matches your situation. Pasted English logs no longer unnecessarily switch a support conversation away from your language, and migration assistance can identify services reserved for a Classic move. Windows VPS evaluation details are also available to support, with warnings before evaluation expiry.
- Get more useful dedicated server guidance. Zappy and the dedicated assistant can recognize confirmed hardware defects and offer replacement guidance. Remote-console advice also avoids unsupported claims about function keys.
- Build useful outage-reporting bots with Maker. The new public API endpoint
GET /api/v1/incidentsreports outages and maintenance affecting services accessible to your API token, and Maker can use it for Discord status bots. Floating support and feedback buttons also stop covering Maker’s Send button on tablets. - Keep support requests from being overlooked. Tickets routed to departments without assigned members remain visible to support, including custom dedicated configuration requests.
- Receive clearer boundaries around protected resources. AI assistants flag clearly decrypted copies of paid resources and avoid rebuilding their encrypted components.
More control over your servers
- Choose whether daily system backups run. Gameservers, TeamSpeak servers and Discord bots now have an opt-out switch for free daily backups, including gameserver database dumps. VPS backup retries also retain their retry limits, and temporarily blocked automatic deletions wait for another attempt instead of showing a misleading failure.
- Choose Minecraft modpack RAM with better guidance. Estimates account for pack size and author recommendations rather than giving every unmeasured pack the same starting recommendation. RAM figures across the shop, calculator and landing pages are also more consistent.
- Understand Don’t Starve Together caves settings. The panel explains the caves switch, its additional RAM needs and when a reinstall is needed for the extra port. Classic migration handling also preserves the Caves shard layout.
- See more accurate Stormworks checks and settings. Port checks use the server’s actual listening port, avoiding inconclusive results on healthy servers. Save-name guidance and new-world-only seed behavior also follow the current Stormworks catalog entry.
- Manage TeamSpeak with fewer surprises. Ad-free servers adopted from Classic no longer retain the ZAP advertising banner, and join passwords are masked in the TSDNS connection instructions.
Easier One-Click App hosting
- Use your own domain for the Coolify panel. Your hostname can now use DNS hosted outside ZapX, and the choice is remembered across reinstalls and takeovers. AI-installed apps with a web interface also receive an HTTPS zap.cloud address by default when no hostname is specified.
- Complete fresh installations more reliably. Stalwart Mail uses a version that allows new installations to sign in, and Coolify setup waits for running operating-system updates instead of failing because they are still active.
- Understand app failures before retrying. Stored startup errors remain visible on stopped apps and in app actions, with no unhelpful retry offered for missing images. Unavailable panel-hostname changes also return a clearer refusal rather than a generic server error.
Shopping and management that fit your screen
- Keep checkout controls where you expect them. The mobile purchase bar no longer jumps off-screen between configurator steps and hides when the actual order button is visible, leaving the terms below it unobstructed. The domain review checkout card also keeps a consistent highlight instead of changing unexpectedly as you scroll.
- Read prices and locations without clipping. Package billing periods wrap beneath long prices, region names break at sensible points, and automatic location selection keeps the chosen location readable.
- Use customer lists and settings comfortably on smaller screens. Empty service lists no longer show redundant nested cards, translated settings buttons and upgrade controls fit their labels, and DNS record columns use space more effectively. Partner marketing links switch to cards so figures and analytics actions stay visible.
- Browse landing pages without cut-off content. Use-case sections stay vertical on tablets, preview tiles and floating resource cards fit their available space, and decorative effects no longer cause sideways scrolling. Long product names and translated setup buttons also fit their cards.
- Read articles and important purchase details more easily. Long blog buttons and URLs in help articles and changelogs wrap instead of clipping, help-center artwork stays clear of action links, and payment-strip contract details use more readable text.
- Use game tools on narrow phones. Satisfactory map filters and Minecraft armor-command controls stay inside their panels, while narrow tool columns, crafting layouts and Rust examples have better spacing. Long configuration paths also wrap within setup instructions.
- Tap controls more confidently. Gameserver and Discord bot file actions have larger tablet touch targets, carousel navigation is easier to hit, and the footer logo has a more usable touch area. Homepage modpack navigation also selects the pack you tap.
Clearer billing, Pass choices and Classic moves
- Avoid misleading payment errors after a successful charge. Subscription checkout handles temporary processing delays without presenting the payment as failed. Sponsored rental services can also remain active without collecting subscription payments.
- Move from Classic with clearer choices. PayPal payment-method import no longer fails after a successful authorization, gameserver comparisons show player-slot gains, and Pass tier cards highlight applicable AI-token allowances.
- Compare ZapX Pass plans more easily. Tier prices and labels no longer overlap, mobile comparison headings have room to breathe, and tablet summary layouts use their space better. Checkout also presents AI-token allowances in a more compact, readable format.
- Keep clearer records of your agreement. Accepted legal-document versions are archived and accepted terms accompany order receipts. The terms dated November 6, 2026 add service, payment, licensing, backup and AI provisions, while Lifetime wording makes the active ZapX Pass requirement explicit.
More accurate product information
- Compare games by what makes them different. Featured game cards show game-specific capabilities, with shared benefits presented once below the row. Preorder games are labeled accordingly, unavailable games avoid premature package-price claims, and shop game names and badges fit smaller screens.
- See hosting details that match the product. VPS game previews show the appropriate operating system, One-Click App names use correct brand spellings, and product copy more accurately explains pricing factors, setup times and AI/API costs.
- Browse more consistent localized content. Legal and informational share cards use translated headlines, VPS app share cards use consistent hosting terminology, and blog header generation better reflects each article’s subject. Translation corrections and a new smiling shield Zappy pose also refresh the public experience.
- Benefit from safer public-page content. Structured product and FAQ information is handled more safely when it contains special characters, helping prevent broken page data and unintended HTML interpretation.
