What's New in Ecolab KitchenIQ

3.0.4

August 5, 2026

Various bug fixes and localization improvements

User reviews

Not the app it used to be

Bring back the old vsbl. we are tired of this update and even after many weeks of usage

Terrible update

The beauty of this app was that the UI made everything visible and easy to access. Now shift leaders are hidden behind expandable buttons, recognitions aren’t visible, breaks are confusing, reviewing checklists are not as clear.
Revert the app. We are going to look for a new app if changes aren’t made.

Horrible after update. EcoLab is is the worst.

If we could give this app zero stars, we would. Since Ecolab took over, it’s become painfully slow, confusing, and frustrating to use. The UI is terrible, navigation takes forever, comments on infractions are not viewable, safe counts and checklists are buried in the UI. in the , and basic tasks take far longer than they should. The team doesn’t even use it sadly, because it is unpractical. For the price, this app is unacceptable. We’re actively looking for a replacement. Booooo EcoLab

Worst update

Contacted kitchen iq to see if they were planning on changing the app because their reviews have tanked since the update, and they just doubled down saying they wouldn’t listen to the feedback and would only change the bugs.

Terrible update

I’ve never seen an app ruin their entire usage in one update. Please, just go back to the old layout and design. Your users beg you!
