### 1.1.4 — 2026-07-24

Version 1.3 — Reliability & Workflow Upgrades
Thank you to every captain, chief officer, and engineer who reported issues from TestFlight and the web app. This release is dedicated to the two things you asked for the most: rock-solid connectivity and faster daily inspection workflow.
What's New
• Smart Connection Recovery — Captalyze now automatically detects and switches between multiple backend routes. If your mobile carrier or hotel Wi-Fi blocks one server address, the app instantly retries on an alternate route, so you never lose access to your data.
• One-Tap Checklist Reset — When you Save or Send an inspection, the completed snapshot is archived to Inspection History and the on-screen checklist instantly clears itself, ready for the next round. No more manual unticking or reopening the app.
• Checklist Search — A new search box lets you type any keyword, section name, or RISQ code (e.g. "lifeboat", "mooring", "01.03") to jump directly to the item you need. First matching section auto-expands.
• Extended Timeout for Slow Networks — Sync timeout increased from 5 to 8 seconds, giving satellite and weak 3G connections a fair chance to complete.
What We Fixed
• "Sign up failed · Cannot reach server" on TestFlight and PWA — resolved. • "POST /api/fleet/sync 400 Bad Request" for crew not yet assigned to a vessel — the server now accepts the request and skips gracefully, preserving your offline queue. • Sync queue no longer stays locked to a failing backend URL when the network changes. • Announcements screen and Install Guide render correctly on first launch. • Duplicate email registration now shows a proper message instead of a network error.
Tips
• If you had trouble signing in before, please delete the app cache once (or reinstall) — the new smart routing takes over from the first launch. • Web users: install Captalyze on your home screen from Safari (Share → Add to Home Screen) for full offline use.
Feedback keeps us sharp — send it via Profile → Contact Support.
Fair winds and following seas.

### 1.1.3 — 2026-05-17

WHAT'S NEW — Captalyze Work & Inspection Plan v1.1.3
(iOS Build 14 · Android Version Code 114)

NEW FEATURE — Work Plan Handover & Transfer System
Watch handover, simplified. When a Captain or Officer is signing off, transferring pending Work Plan tasks to the joining crew is now a one-tap, in-app operation. No more emails, no more whiteboards, no more lost context at change-over.

• Inbox / Outbox / History tabs give every officer a complete audit trail of every transfer they've sent, received, or participated in.
• Each transferred task carries its full history with it: notes, before/after photos, priority, due dates, inspection references (RISQ / OCIMF / SIRE), and the AI inspection analysis from earlier rounds.
• Multi-select tasks at once, write a short note for the incoming Captain ("Pay attention to bunker hose leak — see task #4 photo"), pick the recipient, and tap CONFIRM TRANSFER.
• Recipient picker now includes a live SEARCH BOX — type a name, role, or e-mail and the list filters in real time. Essential for companies with large crew rosters.
• Platform admins are intentionally hidden from the handover recipient list — handovers are operational, not administrative.
• Supported roles: Master, Chief Officer, Deck Officer, Chief Engineer, Engine Officer. Tasks are reassigned only when the recipient ACCEPTS — until then the outgoing Captain still owns them. REJECT and CANCEL paths preserved.
• Bridge home: new "HANDOVER" quick-access tile with a red badge showing pending inbox count so the joining crew immediately sees there is work waiting.

 RISQ Inspection Guide — Integrated
Expandable per-item RISQ V/03.2 guidance notes inside every checklist item (243 of 244 items covered). Contextual help during inspections — no more flipping between the app and a PDF.

 Critical iOS Layout Fixes
• Status bar overlap on tab screens fixed — every screen now respects SafeArea insets correctly.
• Back buttons brought to the foreground — no more collision with the clock or signal indicators.
• "Send Now" / "Save" action bars no longer overflow horizontally on smaller iPhone models.

Multiple Photo Selection
Pick up to 10 photos at once from the gallery for any task. Faster before/after photo attachment, fewer taps per inspection round.

Login Screen Enhancement
Added a "Server unreachable? Try a VPN." notice — common on corporate networks behind restrictive firewalls. Now ship crew know exactly what to do when their company's egress policy blocks the connection.

Backend Authorisation Hardening
• Cross-company handover reads now correctly return 403 — strict tenant isolation between companies.
• App Manager dashboard now correctly returns the full cross-company audit history of every handover for global oversight.
• Eligible-recipient endpoint filters out platform-admin accounts so they can't accidentally receive operational handovers.
• Full backend regression suite for the Handover module: 60 of 60 assertions PASS.

Quality
• Frontend test sweep validates the entire handover flow end-to-end at mobile dimensions (iPhone 12 / Galaxy S21).
• Theme-aware dark mode propagates correctly to the new Handover and recipient-search surfaces.

Behind the Scenes
• New 'handovers' MongoDB collection with full audit trail (from/to user, task snapshot, timestamps, notes).
• Tasks now carry a 'handover_chain[]' field so you can see every previous owner of any task at a glance.
• New REST endpoints under /api/handover/* with role-based access control.

Thank you to all the users who tested the beta and reported feedback.
