July Product Updates Focus on Admins ~ Notion VIP

Two rounds of product updates in July primarily served workspace administrators.

Sign in with Your Apple ID

In addition to your email address and Google account, you can now use your Apple ID to sign in to Notion.

Lock Workspace Pages

On Enterprise plans, administrators can now prevent any changes to the pages shared with the full workspace. The option is available in the Security & SAML section of Settings & Members.

Invite Members on Mobile

Team and Enterprise plans now include a Members item in the mobile sidebar. Members can view other workspace members, and admins can quickly invite new members.

Polished Settings & Members

Notion made aesthetic enhancements to the Settings & Members section, including more spacing between components and the addition of sophisticated line icons.
