App v 5.11 has been released to Production on both Android & iOS.

What has Changed?

See previous Announcement (25 Jun, 2025) for specifics to changes in v5.11

App 5.11 will be released to Pre-Beta.

New

• Notifications: Bell button for app announcements and feedback @ main page.
• Time Stamp Entry: Time of inventory entry is captured for the upcoming Mixed Inventory Screen on the web platform.

Adjustments/Changes

Weight Safeguards: Additional heuristic to safeguard against weights being entered as full counts.

• An alert will be triggered if an item size has a defined volume > 15 liters (eg, kegs), and a full count > 10 is entered.
• A previous alert for full count > 400 remains in place.

Note 
The alert only aims to reduce errors. It remains the responsibility of an userto ensure a count or weight is correctly entered. 

Barcode Scan Delay: A brief delay < 1 sec is introduced between two consecutive barcode scans

• The delay aims to prevent unintentional duplicate scans of an item due to various reasons

Other:

• Further tweaks on background server and Hot Patch processes.

Hot Patch Release

Implementation of in-app changelog & announcements

Promotion of 5.01 from Pre-Beta to BETA

Introducing: Hot Patch Deployment

Our biggest leap forward isn’t something you’ll see, it’s something you’ll feel. Version 5.00+ introduces Hot Patch, a brand-new feature that allows us to push select updates instantly, without waiting for Apple or Google’s approval cycles.

Why It Matters:

• Critical updates and fixes can now be deployed instantly.
• Less downtime, more agility.

How It Works:

• Hot Patches may be applied automatically, or on occasion, manually (when instructed).
• Manual patching is available via:

 Configuration > Misc > App Patch Loader 

Versioning Note:

Going forward, app versions will follow a new format: X.Xy

• X.X = Major version (App Store)
• y = Minor version (Hot Patch)

Example: App version 5.00 (from the App Store) + Hot Patch 5.01
Functionally identical, but hot-patched with background enhancements.

Minor but Noticeable Updates

Improved Inventory Sync Logic

Reduced risk of double-syncing caused by repeated taps during poor connectivity.

Pro Tips:

• Always sync with a stable connection (move closer to WiFi or switch to cellular).
• After pressing the Sync button, wait at least 5 seconds before trying again.

Smarter Text Fields

When entering certain fields (e.g., new item creation), existing text will now be auto-selected for quick replacement – no more backspacing!

Renamed Option: “Smart Download” → “Full Item Database Download”

A clearer name for a powerful feature. “Smart Download” was a legacy term from an outdated process – the new name reflects its true purpose.

Bug Fixes

Inventory Reset Behavior

Reset now properly returns users to the first page/shelf, avoiding confusion in large inventories.

Language Settings Fix

Display language now properly switches across all devices, including Samsung models.

New Feature Alert

​Introducing: Swipe Sensitivity Customization

• We’ve added a new setting that gives every user the ability to fine-tune how swipe actions are registered in the app.
