Android Release Notes

2.0.49437363 - 07 March 2019

• Improved the efficiency of activity monitoring. This refers to the use of the sensors on the device that detects when the user has started or stopped driving. The previous implementation polled for the activity very frequently and caused power drain. This release improves this and should save some much-needed battery power.
• We added a new “Auto” option in the Camera library setting. This setting would switch the library to the best option based on the device and known problem devices. The default used to be Camera kit but it is now FotoApparat with some exceptions. This should resolve some problems experienced on Camera kit library.

• After one hour of not syncing, a red exclamation mark will appear by the sync button.
• After two hours of not syncing, a popup will warn the user that they haven’t synced since at least 2 hours ago.
• A popup only occurs every hour thereafter, unless the user manually syncs and that sync fails.

1.1.25710

• The big feature for this release is visit frequency on the mobile app.  It is editable on the mobile, if the keeper user setting "May edit weeks between visit" is set.  The default setting for this after keeper upgrade is un-set.  
• Please note that this May edit weeks between visit setting may only be set (ticked) when the user is on the new version of the mobile.  If not, a customer edit can remove visit frequencies set on the customer, if uploaded from an older version of the mobile.
• On the customer list the user will also see when the next visit must be done.  If the visit frequency is set, and a last visit time is known on the mobile, it will be of the form "Visit this week" or "Visit next week" under the customer's name.
• If a scheduled visit is specified for the customer the specific date is mentioned on the customer list.
• If both scheduled visit and visit frequency values are set, the mobile will show the user the earliest of the two.
• A new filter is also available on the customer list allowing the user to see "overdue" "this week" or "next week" customers.

• Users may be added and removed through the new control
• The user visit frequency may be edited through the new control
• Imports of the user visit frequency will now also assign the user to the customer

1.1.24752

• It includes a rework for customer location updating from the mobile (iOS and Android). 
•  A per user configuration on the keeper defines whether a user can update customer locations or not.  Customer locations can not be updated from a visit on the mobile anymore.  To update customer locations the user have to edit the customer settings and then edit the customer location on the mobile. A map is displayed with the customer location as well as the user’s current location.  By clicking the “Edit Location” button, the map can be moved until the marker is in the correct spot.
