Changelog

1.1.2 August 2026 Latest

New Features

Quantity-Based Tier Pricing — Set automatic volume discount tiers for products (e.g. 1-2 units at 900 HTG, 3+ units at 750 HTG) directly in the Product Edit dialog. The POS cart automatically recalculates unit prices as item quantities change without losing manual discounts. Final applied unit prices are printed on receipts.
Enhanced Store 360 Telemetry — Admin dashboard gains comprehensive per-store metrics tracking refunds, expenses, customer/supplier creation, product edits, and till sessions across a 30-day window.

Improvements

Offline Sales Sync Transparency — Checkout waits for durable local storage before displaying receipts, explicitly marking offline sales as pending sync so cashiers are always clear on sync status.
Optimized Analytics & Report Performance — Report date-range queries use limitToLast to reduce data transfers and load charts faster.
Screen View Navigation Telemetry — Real-time route tracking reports screen usage across POS, Dashboard, Products, and Reports to admin.

Fixes

Payment Network Retry Safety — Payment transactions mark as completed upon database commit, preventing accidental duplicate charges if a post-payment refresh fails.
Hardened Security Rules — Removed legacy catch-all store subcollection rules to strictly scope role-based access for inventory, reports, and administrative features.

1.1.0 August 2026 Released

New Features

Real Last Active Tracking & Store Activity — Automated per-store activity heartbeats allow administrators to view real-time store activity levels (Active Now, Recently Active, Inactive, Never Active) alongside device count and store owners.
Store 360 Detail View — Detailed store inspect drawer showing store details, currency, country, first/last sale timestamps, lifetime usage, health metrics, and a privacy-safe recent activity timeline.
Admin Store Lifecycle Actions — Administrative tools to suspend, archive, or delete stores with in-app blocking screens for inactive accounts.

New Features

Play Store Rating Invitations — Spaced milestone invitations encouraging store owners to leave app store reviews after completing sales milestones.

1.0.7 July 2026 Released

New Features

Continuous Scan Mode — A pin toggle keeps the POS camera scanner open after each scan, so cashiers can ring up a whole basket (drinks, candy bars, groceries) without opening and closing the scanner for every item. The last choice is remembered on the device.
On-Scan Feedback — Each successful scan shows the product name, "Added to cart", and price for a moment before fading, with a beep and vibration so the cashier never has to look away from the scanner.
Flashlight Toggle — Turn on the camera flashlight for low-light checkout lanes with a single tap.
Draggable Cart Button — The cart button on the POS screen is now a floating button you can drag to any edge, so it never blocks your product grid.

Improvements

Floating Camera Scanner — The camera scanner is now a floating, rounded card that hovers above the sales transaction instead of a full-screen takeover. Larger preview, background still visible — it feels like a lightweight camera widget.
Smarter Re-Detection — Scanner re-detection is now debounced, so holding a barcode in front of the camera adds the item once, not repeatedly.

1.0.6 July 2026 Released

New Features

Multi-Currency Split Payments — Pay for a single order partially in HTG and partially in USD. Toggle between currencies during checkout, with real-time exchange rate conversion and accurate change calculation displayed in the receipt.

Improvements

Reliable Checkout Architecture — New sale coordinator with offline-first design, Firestore persistence, and a durable outbox layer. Sales complete faster and never hang, even with spotty connectivity.
Multi-Unit Product Receipts — Receipts now show what was actually sold with unit labels: "Rice — Bag ×3" or "Rice — Box ×1" with "1 Box = 20 Bags" for bulk items. Order details and cart also reflect multi-unit quantities.
PWA Support — The web app is a fully installable Progressive Web App with manifest, service worker, and offline IndexedDB persistence for Firestore data.
Payment & Subscription Handling on Web — The web app gracefully redirects payment and subscription flows to the Android app. Clear messaging replaces failed paywall and checkout screens.

Fixes

Composite Product Stock Deduction — Selling a box/pack now correctly deducts the right number of base units from inventory (e.g., 1 Box of 20 removes 20, not 1).
