## What is Waste Tally?

Waste Tally helps restaurants track food waste, understand cost impact, and reduce avoidable loss.

• Cost Visibility: See the estimated cost impact of waste by item, category, and day.  
• Reports & Trends: Review patterns over time so you can spot repeat issues early.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 2.3.1 — 2026-08-28

### 2.3.0 — 2026-08-23

• Clearer plan status. If your organization already covers you, the app no longer offers you an upgrade you don't need, and your own subscription now shows whether it's renewing or ending.
• Better messages when something won't work — including a plain explanation when a location's time zone can't be changed, instead of asking you to try again.

• Cleaned up duplicate station items saved on this device.
• New Bar & grill starter template when you're trying the demo.

Pair a tablet to one location

Set up a shared tablet at the station and let staff log waste without signing in. Pair it by scanning a QR code or entering a short code, and
unpair it right from the tablet when you're done. A paired tablet shows a focused set of screens — track waste, dashboard, summary and daily logs —
so staff can read off end-of-day numbers without getting into account settings.

### 2.1.7 — 2026-06-20

- Fix mistakes in Daily Logs — Swipe left on any entry to update the quantity or delete a record you logged by mistake (Pro).
- Clearer editing — Adjust quantities with step buttons or type the amount directly.
- Easier to discover — Daily Logs and Email Reports now show short guidance at the top of the screen.
