Forms rise into place with a smooth animation, keep pace with your keyboard, and give your content more room to breathe. We've also included a number of small fixes and refinements to keep everything running reliably. Thanks for using Shokken! ### 20260702.414.2 — 2026-07-02 This update delivers a refreshed, faster experience across the app, plus new ways to share your menu. New - Publish a shareable public menu link with its own QR display so guests can browse your menu online, with a reminder before the link lapses. - Redesigned home and waitlist dashboard with a clearer layout, easier-to-read wait times, and better use of tablet screens. - Guest-facing QR screens now open as a clean full-screen kiosk, with the waitlist self-join and public menu displays sharing one consistent look. - Reimagined menu authoring: a content-first editor and workspace, refreshed menu cards, a clearer publish flow, and the option to assign a menu straight to a waitlist. - A smoother launch and sign-in experience, with layouts tuned for iPad. Improvements and fixes - Seat, notify, and cancel buttons are larger and easier to tap accurately during a busy service. - Fixed unexpected sign-outs caused by temporary connection hiccups; your session and menus now stay put while the app reconnects. - Menu cards now refresh on their own when an import finishes. - Numerous visual and animation refinements throughout. ### 20260612.384.2 — 2026-06-13 ## What’s New - **More reliable offline handling** - Offline behavior is now more consistent across Home, Usage, Profile, Login, and related screens. - App actions no longer get stuck in awkward states when your connection drops. - When connectivity returns, work in progress is handled more reliably and synced again. - **Menu drafts are safer offline** - Menu edits are preserved if your network drops. - Saves are paused when offline and retried after a reconnect, which helps prevent lost updates or stale overwrites. - **Home refresh improves on reconnect** - Home now updates selected waitlist data when the app reconnects after a network drop. - Keeps your guest and waitlist information current with less manual refreshing. - **Subscription and paywall stability** - Subscription status and entitlement updates refresh faster after purchase or restore actions. - Paywall-related state is handled more consistently to reduce mismatches and confusion. - **Visual and QR/screenshot polish** - Flyer and in-app promotional visuals were improved for a cleaner, more polished look. - QR join/preview visuals are cleaner and more consistent on full-screen flows. - Promo scenes and related marketing media were refined for better transitions. ### 20260507.376.2 — 2026-06-13 No release notes. ## Apps similar to Shokken | App | Rating | Price | Category | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | [Capote Business Solutions](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/capote-business-solutions/id6768779298) | — | Free | Business | | [ScanQueue](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/scanqueue/id6791056049) | — | Free | Business | | [WaitHub - Waitlist & Queue App](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/waithub-waitlist-and-queue-app/id6754901002) | 5.0 (3) | Free | Business | | [NextMe 2.0](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/nextme-20/id6596730453) | 5.0 (7) | Free | Business | | [Event Check-In App](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/event-check-in-app/id6444030004) | — | Free | Business | | [Eat App Manager](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/eat-app-manager/id928136061) | 4.0 (4) | Free | Business | ## Related topics [waitlist restaurant](https://appshunter.io/ios/topics/waitlist-restaurant) · [qboy](https://appshunter.io/ios/topics/qboy) · [crossroads waitlist](https://appshunter.io/ios/topics/crossroads-waitlist) --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
