Plain summaries of each month's release notes. The numbers in brackets are the versions. Dates are the day each version was prepared for the App Store; the App Store shows the day it went live, usually a few days later.
- Versions 117–122 · 6 releases
- Ask Business Manager, an AI card at the top of Customers: talk or type a question, and get the answer in English or Spanish. On the unfolded iPhone Duo and wide iPad windows, the customer card sits beside the map. A pay rate change now starts on a date, so past days keep their pay.
- A Today widget for the Home Screen and Lock Screen, a Control Center button, and Siri and Shortcuts. Pick Apple Maps, Google Maps or Waze for directions. Connect Claude in Profile → Connect an AI assistant. Receipts show a PAID stamp.
- Route Board: every route side by side, each in its own colour. Drag houses between routes, or paint them onto a route on the map, then order each route by GPS from a starting house. A new house joins the route of its nearest neighbour.
- Every invoice gets its own number, on the PDF, the email, the text and the online invoice page. Each customer gets an account number, and each Office thread a ticket number. One search covers customers, sites and Office notes.
- Versions 107–116 · 10 releases

- Join links make it easier to add a new crew member, and GPS tracking between owner and crew got better.
- Campaigns: text a group of customers at once, now with photos.
