### 1.4 — 2026-07-17

iPad-native layout — App now runs at full iPad resolution with responsive scaling and safe-area support; removed iPhone compatibility box.
Mobile POS redesign — Staff POS refit for phones: compact staff strip, sticky totals, full-width cart launcher, and locked viewport to prevent horizontal overflow.
Keyboard improvements — Text fields now show the correct iOS keyboard actions: “Search” for loyalty/delivery lookups, “Next” for customer name, and “Done” for phone/table number.
LAN/Ethernet printer support — Added direct IP printer setup for Star and Epson kitchen printers, with live ping testing and a “Save Without Test” fallback while iOS Local Network permission is pending.
Printer discovery permissions — Added NSLocalNetworkUsageDescription and Bonjour service entries to Info.plist so iOS prompts for Local Network access and scan can find network printers.

Rebuilt the native iOS experience for restaurant staff and administrators.

- iPad now runs in native full-screen mode instead of iPhone compatibility mode.
- Removed the staff PIN gate so reviewers can sign in directly with email and password.
- Redesigned the POS interface for phones with a compact header, auto-scrolling tabs, and a sticky bottom Charge bar.
- Fixed screen auto-fitting so the app fills the device viewport on iPhone and iPad without clipping or zoom.
- Restored location switching and made the active location always visible.
- Fixed the reviewer account setup so clock-in and staff actions work without database errors.
- Updated the app name and metadata to "Ignite Restaurants".
Reviewer Notes (copy into "Notes" in App Review Information):

This build addresses the previous rejection feedback:

1. The app is now a staff/admin-facing restaurant management tool, not a customer demo.
2. Sign-in uses email + password only — no PIN is required for the reviewer account.
3. The app auto-fits to iPhone and iPad screens; iPad runs in native full-screen mode.
4. The reviewer account has full admin and staff permissions, so all POS, dashboard, manage, and time-clock features are accessible.

Reviewer credentials:
- Email: appstore-reviewer@ignite-entrepreneurs.com
- Password: 911600

After signing in, the reviewer will see the location picker, then the staff POS. Tabs at the top switch between Order, Tickets, Dashboard, Manage, and Feed. The active location is shown in the header and can be changed at any time.
Reply to App Review (if you want to paste it into the Resolution Center):
