What's New in Garage Time
1.2.0
June 12, 2026
Your customers can finally say yes from their phone. • Shareable quote links — send a link, your customer opens it in any browser, reviews the quote, and approves or declines with one tap. Their decision syncs right back into the app. • Decline reasons — know why a job didn't land. Declined quotes keep the reason, and "Edit & Resend" spins up a fresh revision in seconds. • Quote quick actions — tap any quote for status, send/approve/decline, share-link management, and a built-in PDF preview. Swipe for the fast stuff. • VIN scanner, rebuilt — real check-digit validation and auto-capture. It reads the VIN, not the tire-pressure sticker. • PDF preview everywhere — see exactly what your customer gets before you send it. PDFs now arrive as proper named files on Android too. • Add a vehicle straight from a customer's file, and import a shared quote from a code or link. Track the work. Send the quote. Get the yes.
