Custom Page Icons
Adding custom icons to your Notion pages was possible before, but it just got way easier.
You can now paste images directly from your clipboard to set them as page icons. No more uploading from URLs or digging through folders. Whether it’s a screenshot or a saved image, just copy and paste it straight into the icon upload area.

Conditional coloring for database rows
You can now highlight entire rows based on custom property rules, like automatically coloring all high priority tasks or all tasks due today for easy scanning.

Tab Groups
Notion just took a page from your favorite browser and introduced Tab Groups - a new way to organize your open pages by category.
You can now group Notion pages based on context, such as clients, projects, or business areas, making it easier to switch between different parts of your workspace without having 20+ tabs cluttering your navigation bar.
You’ll find the new tab grouping options in the top bar of your Notion workspace.

Personal profile pages
Now when you hover over someone’s @-mention or their icon in any person property in Notion, you’ll see a smart little profile card with key details at a glance to quickly schedule a meeting or contact them via email.
Clicking on their card takes you to a full profile page where you can see what they’re working on and which teamspaces they’re part of.

Easy CSV import & merging
Importing CSVs into Notion just got a serious glow-up.
You can now preview your data and define column types (like date, number, text) before importing. No more messy reformatting after the fact.
Just head to Database Settings → Merge with CSV and bring your data in smoothly.

Notion Calendar UX update
NEW in your Notion Calendar: you can now view and manage any database that includes a date property, directly from your calendar without needing to add a calendar view in Notion first.
As long as a database has at least one date field, its items will show up in your Notion Calendar automatically. No need to create special views or adjust settings. This makes it much easier to keep track of tasks, projects, and deadlines—all in one place.

New Database UI
Notion databases just got a sleek UI upgrade. Instead of the old three-dot menu, settings are now accessed through a dedicated icon. Once everything is set up, you can hide the entire settings section at the top of the database for a cleaner look.
The property creation flow has also been improved: you can now name a property and select its type in one step, so there’s no more digging through dropdowns. You can right-click to insert properties exactly where you want them, either to the left or right of existing ones.
Property visibility and editing are now split into two separate areas. This helps your team avoid accidentally changing property settings when they just want to show or hide something in the current view.
