What's new on CIRO

CIRO is software for private landlords: accounting, utility bill statements, tenants and documents in one place. This page lists every new feature of the app by date, newest first. Entries are written in German.Last updated on October 23, 2026.

  1. Split combined receipts, receipts in your documents

    A bill covering several cost types becomes one booking per item. Each receipt is stored only once and appears in the documents of its building and unit.

    Receipts and bookings

    Finances
    • Split combined receipts. When CIRO finds several cost types on one receipt, such as property tax, waste collection and sewage, you create one booking per item with a single click. You enter the property, date and invoice number only once. With "Split" you can also divide a booking into items by hand.
    • One receipt for all its bookings. A receipt is stored once and linked to all of its bookings. If you delete one booking, the receipt stays with the others.
    • Notice for duplicate receipts. If you upload a receipt you have already booked, CIRO shows you that booking and its date.

    Documents

    Documents
    • Receipts in your documents. The documents of a building and a unit now also show the receipts of your bookings, together with the related bookings and amounts. A filter shows only documents or only receipts.

    Buildings and units

    Properties
    • Units in their own tab. On a building's page, the units have their own tab. That is where you add new units, including straight from an empty building.
    • Change the parking type. For a garage or parking space, you change the type while editing. Costs are assigned to the matching cost pool.
    • A building stays without units. If you delete a building's last unit, the building remains. You delete a building with "Delete building".

    Utility cost statement

    Utility costs
    • Meter readings at the period boundary. Readings taken up to ten days before or after the start and end of the billing period count as the reading on the cut-off date. For water, there is an interim reading when tenants change.
    • Smoke detector maintenance as a cost type. You book smoke detector maintenance as its own cost type, which can be passed on to tenants under § 2 no. 17 BetrKV.

    Tenants

    Tenants
    • Tenants with several landlords. The same tenant email address can be stored by several landlords. It is unique per landlord.
  2. Clearer overviews, and your properties belong to your account

    All overviews now share the same layout, and on your phone, menus and pickers open from the bottom of the screen. Every building now belongs to exactly one account.

    Overviews

    Usability
    • One layout for every overview. Properties, accounting, tickets, documents, maintenance, utility costs, service providers and tenants all show the filters on the left with the key figures below them, and the list on the right.
    • Pickers open from the bottom on your phone. On your phone, menus and selection lists open as a panel from the bottom of the screen. You can reach them easily with your thumb and swipe them away.

    Buildings

    Properties
    • Your building belongs to your account. Each building is assigned to exactly one account. To delete a building, you now type its street name to confirm, so nothing disappears by accident.

    Sign-in and security

    Account and security
    • Sign in with an email code. You sign in with a code that CIRO sends to your email address.
    • More protection for your data. Additional security checks make sure each account can only see and change its own data.
