Released 2026-10-29. App, Terms of Service, Privacy Policy, Disclosures and Recruiter Terms: version 1.0.6.

FreeApply now keeps applying from the conversation you set it up in, with no scheduled tasks, and Start works within seconds. The browser tool can attach your résumé again and stays in one tab. After updating, tell your AI assistant "set up FreeApply" once.

New

  • Saving your settings while FreeApply is applying asks what to do: complete the run (your new settings are picked up by the next run), or stop, update and continue (it finishes the job it's on, then starts again right away with your new settings).

Changed

  • FreeApply no longer uses scheduled tasks in your AI app. The conversation where you set it up keeps applying on its own, looks for new jobs again after a rest, and checks your email for replies every few hours, until you press Stop. Start picks it up again within seconds. If it stops for any other reason (for example your AI app's usage limit), tell your AI assistant "set up FreeApply" to start it again.
  • Setup carries on by itself the moment you save your settings or accept the Terms in the dashboard: no need to go back and say you're done.
  • Telling your AI assistant "set up FreeApply" when your settings and the Terms are already done starts applying right away, also after you pressed Stop, a "Stop after" limit was reached, or while it was resting between searches.
  • The "Stop after" limits in Settings count from when you last pressed Start, and stop FreeApply until you press Start again or tell your AI assistant "set up FreeApply". The daily cap pauses it until tomorrow.
  • The dashboard says "Not running" when no conversation in your AI app is running FreeApply.
  • FreeApply does all its browser work in one tab, job after job, and keeps the browser connection open between jobs instead of opening a new tab or connection each time.
  • Clearer instructions for the AI on several of FreeApply's tools, and checking FreeApply's status no longer changes anything on your computer.

Fixed

  • After the AI app signed in to another account, or its FreeApply task was deleted, the dashboard showed "On" and waited for a run that never came.
  • FreeApply's optional browser tool couldn't attach your résumé or cover letter unless your AI app was working in the FreeApply documents folder, so those applications stopped as blocked. Updating with the installer fixes the browser tool you already have.

Legal
No changes.

Upgrading
After updating, tell your AI assistant "set up FreeApply" once. It removes FreeApply's old scheduled tasks and starts applying from that conversation; leave that conversation open. Six of FreeApply's tools have new names (for example freeapply_status is now freeapply_get_status). If you approved FreeApply's tools one by one in your AI app, it asks once more for those six.
