## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.4.2 — 2026-08-19

• Route recording: if your location permission was set to "While Using the App," your drive route was not being recorded and nothing told you. The app now shows a clear notice and takes you straight to the setting that fixes it.
• Battery: the clock in screen was keeping GPS running the whole time the app was open, even while you were on other screens. It now uses GPS only when it needs to.
• Notification reliability improvements.

### 1.4.1 — 2026-06-10

Tool Inventory, leveled up:
- Track how many of each item you own and its total value
- Check out individual units to a crew or job (not the whole batch), and return any amount when they come back

Work Orders:
- Export any work order to a clean, branded PDF with your company logo
Navigation refresh:
- Features organized into clear pillars, plus a new Processes section for SOPs, certifications, safety, and compliance
- Reports & Analytics is now one tap away at the top

Lead Funnel:
- Break your pipeline down by day, week, month, quarter, or year

Plus a refreshed ChiefOps logo and the usual bug fixes and performance improvements.

### 1.4.0 — 2026-06-04

What's New in ChiefOps 1.4.0

Live crew tracking, all day

Crew GPS now records routes continuously while you're clocked in, even when your phone is locked. Owners see real drive routes, stops, miles, and time on site on the Crew Map.
Drive time now reflects actual time spent moving, not your whole shift.
Review any day's routes

The Crew Map has a new day selector. Jump back to any past day to see that day's saved routes and stops, and each new day starts with a clean map.
Pre-Site Survey at contract signing

When a deal is marked Contract Signed, the sales rep is taken straight into a pre-site survey to capture up to 12 site photos. The owner is notified and can view them right on the lead.
Smarter, safer access

Team members now see only the screens their role allows, on web and mobile, so payroll and sensitive company data stay protected.
Plus performance improvements and bug fixes throughout the app.

### 1.3.5 — 2026-05-28

Work without a signal. ChiefOps now runs in dead zones.
• Clock in and out, write daily reports, and take job photos with no internet. Everything syncs automatically the moment you reconnect, with no lost time and no duplicates.
• Unlock the app fast and securely with Face ID or Touch ID, or your PIN, so you can get back in even with no service.
• Browse your jobs, change orders, and inspections offline, not just a blank screen when the signal drops.
• Smoother and more reliable on job sites with weak or no connection.

### 1.3.4 — 2026-05-22

• GPS-verified clock-in with job-site geofencing
• Live crew map showing who's clocked in and where
• Phone-number sign-up and login for field crews without email
• Cost code selection on time entries
• Role-based access controls protecting employee pay and personal info
• Bilingual (English & Spanish) throughout
• Performance and reliability improvements
