How is everyone?

Are you getting enough rest? Drinking plenty of water? Getting your vegetables, here and there?

It's been a tough period for lots of folks out there with lockdowns, travel restrictions and of course, Covid itself. So we wanted to take this opportunity to say, we hope you're doing well.

Be kind to yourself, be kind to others.

Working in software can be brilliant. Sometimes making small adjustments can result in such a meaningful impact for our customers - for example, something as simple as providing contractors with the ability to search for audits (instead of hunt for them). For our trusted contractors out there, it's now that much easier to find the audit you're after.

All registers now have a much more human-readable file name. In the past, they included a lot of characters. They haven't exactly been bedazzled, but they're certainly a whole lot prettier. File names now include:

So we've gone from this:

to this:

Head over to the tab then click . A new tab will open where you can add in new feature requests and vote on other feature requests that are already in the system.

If you're a contractor out in the field and you're working with a large number of clients, it can become overwhelming having to scroll through the entire list every time you open your Inspector App. So, to make life a little bit easier, we now surface the 3 most recently accessed clients, right at the top of the list. Find them fast, get the job done faster.

It's Friday 13th 👻 and we've squashed a few more ghoulies getting about!

Another week, another set of tweaks, fixes and improvements. We're light on updates for this round as we cook up something special due for release in the coming weeks...

Fundamental to maintaining high safety standards for your people is having the right data at your fingertips, quickly.

Previously, to find the overall Audit status or Risk Rating for a Site, you'd have to drill down into the individual assets within that site. Now, that data bubbles up to the Site level.

At a glance, you'll have a much better understanding of the site-wide risks as well as the progress of your team and/or contractors conducting audits.

Over the past few months, we've brought on a number of key hires to the team, particularly in product and design. Whilst we're working hard in the background on some major features, we're committed to continuously releasing updates. Some of these updates may only be minor (perhaps seemingly imperceptible) but make a big difference to ensuring you can get your job done easier and faster.

Simple things like when you're doing an audit from your mobile phone. The information button was hidden (not on purpose of course!). That's now all fixed up.

Have a feature request of your own? Add it to our Feature Request's board here.

In all seriousness though, we use to announce all of our new features, improvements and bug fixes on a monthly basis. But as our development has ramped up and we consistently release weekly, it makes more sense to keep our release notes on the same schedule.

When any part of our software is released, updated, fixed or improved, we'll be sharing it as it happens.

..... we know, we know....this seems like an obvious one and don't worry, it's bugged us too. We apologise for that!

For the longest time, if you hit 'back' in your browser, your portal would show a blank page and only work again once you refreshed. The ability to simply 'go back' in most applications is such a global norm that we'd continue to do it out of habit, still bumping into the same problems.

But no longer!

Now, you can hit back. With many pages being dynamic in nature, it won't always save the exact same 'state' you were in but will be the last main area you were just in. This one isn't an earth-shattering update by any measure, but one that will likely result in a sigh of relief when you hear about it. Sorry it took so long

Ideas, improvements, and new feature suggestions that come directly from our customers are the pure gold that helps us continue building a world-class product. When you share your thoughts with us (whether it's a raving review or constructive feedback) we genuinely thank you for it.

We sometimes get this feedback from you via email, sometimes on a phone call, perhaps a support chat - or terribly, we don't get to hear it at all, because the moment has passed and you may have forgotten to mention it.

We've now made it much easier for you to pass along your ideas directly into a publicly available feature request board. Not only do you get to add ideas quickly, but you can also vote on other users' ideas that are important to you too, and similarly, they can do the same on yours.

This helps us understand what's going to have the most impact for everyone across the board and prioritise our development where it's needed most. When you vote on an issue, you'll be notified when its status changes - whenever it's commented on from other users or us, or when we move it to planned; in progress; complete or cancelled.

On top of that, we're also delivering our weekly release notes in a much more digestible and accessible way. The format that you're reading right now. We're moving them out of our 'support knowledgebase' and into this dedicated changelog.
