Golden Hour Appointments

Tips now read in whole dollars. The tip keypad counted in cents, so a customer tapping 1 then 0 for a $10 tip left you ten cents. One tap is $1.00 now. The ceiling lifted too: a 40% cap was refusing generous tips the card network would have settled without complaint, so a $20 service can take a $50 tip. Cash and check payments get recorded. The Charge button on a receipt marked the visit complete and stamped it PAID without saving any money, so the visit read unpaid again after the next sync. It is called Record now, and it saves the payment before it claims anything. Cash sales no longer stall. With cash rounding switched on, the rounded total stopped matching what the sale added up to, so the sale was refused and held up every sale behind it. Rounding is its own line on the sale now. Sell retail on an appointment. Charging a client from the calendar reaches the full product catalog now, with the same variant picker, stock deduction and sales tax as the walk-in register. Log a visit that already happened. The booking wizard refused a start time in the past, so the walk-in who came in at 2pm could not be recorded at 2:01. Past visits are allowed now and land completed, with no confirmation text for a visit that already finished. Text a pay link for a client you cannot invoice. When there is a phone number and no email address on file, send a link to pay instead. One card reader at a time. On an iPhone that had ever paired an M2, opening checkout woke that reader and Tap to Pay together and they competed for the single connection allowed. Checkout now wakes only the reader the sale is going out on, and stepping away to another app no longer drops it. Messaging a client goes out on your business line. Eight buttons around the app offered to text a client and six of them opened Apple Messages, which sent from your personal number and put the reply where the app could not show it. All eight open the client's thread now. The Inbox keeps up on its own. A new text lands in the conversation while you are looking at it, instead of only after a pull to refresh. Double bookings are readable on iPhone. Two overlapping appointments sit side by side instead of one client's name drawing over the other's. A better booking wizard on iPad. A proper date card and a tappable start time with one-tap hourly slots, "Assigned to" works again, and "Book it" is no longer cropped. Number pads across the app have a Done key.
