Changelog ​

OpticCount's change log, newest first. The version you are running is shown under Management → Company Details → App version; the current version is 3.27.2. Earlier updates were logged by date only, without a version number, and features whose date was not recorded are gathered in a separate section.

From version 3.27.0 to 3.27.2 ​

17.10.2026

New ​

  • Send login link on WhatsApp on the Users screen: send an employee a personal link that opens the login screen with their phone already filled in. The password is still required, and you can send it once a day per employee. See WhatsApp login link.

From version 3.25.0 to 3.26.3 ​

17.10.2026

New ​

  • Expiry report on the Recent Counts screen: every item scanned with an expiry date, soonest first, with filters by range (expired, within 7 days and more), search, branch choice and Excel export. The red number on the button shows how many have expired or expire this week. See Expiry report.
  • Customize terms on the borrowers screen: the main user or a co-manager chooses what the system calls borrowers, loans and returns (borrowers, employees, customers, apartments, events, or your own words). See Borrowers.
  • Transfer to borrower: move items from one borrower to another in one scan session, with no branch pick and no return to the branch first. See Transfer between borrowers.

Improved ​

  • The WhatsApp Daily Expiration Report checks the whole range from today to the number of days you set, not only its last day. Under When to send you choose between a message only when a new item enters the range (default, each item reported once) and a daily report of everything in the range. See WhatsApp alerts.

Fixed ​

  • A scan with a scan field value, such as colour or size, saves normally again. Before the fix such scans failed with a communication error.

From version 3.22.0 to 3.24.1 ​

14.10.2026

Improved ​

  • A new item created from a line on Review Document Receipt gets every column the document's table had, such as model, colour, size, consumer price and pack quantity, and its buying price is the price after the line's discount. See Goods receiving.
  • A link to an app page opened while signed out goes to the login screen, and after login straight to the linked page.
  • Camera scanning opens the back camera on iPhones too, where the front camera was sometimes picked. See Counter page.

From version 3.20.4 to 3.21.1 ​

13.10.2026

Improved ​

  • Fill in the item dialog from the document line when you create an item on the Review Document Receipt screen: when Select Catalog Item does not find the item, Create new catalog item opens the dialog with the name, item ID, barcode, buying price, unit and supplier already filled. See Goods receiving.
  • Give an account opened by scanning a Yarpa QR code a working connection from the start: the catalog is pulled automatically once a day, and the first pull runs about a minute after sign-in. See Integrations.

Fixed ​

  • Keep a hardware scanner scanning after an error dialog when the keyboard is hidden. See Barcode scanner.
  • Closing an error or message dialog with ✕ now returns the page to work, exactly like the confirm button.

From version 3.19.8 to 3.20.3 ​

12.10.2026

Improved ​

  • Group Purchase History by license period. Each period has a header with the license type (Yearly licence, Monthly licence, Gift licence or Credit adjustment), its dates, the status Active or Ended, and how many credits were loaded into the period. The balance ring counts the credits of the current period. See License & purchases.
  • Play the failure sound when a scan hits a communication error, the same as an item not in the catalog. See The count page.
  • Explain in the catalog upload summary why rows were not loaded: rows repeating an item ID and barcode already in the file, items that could not be saved, and items with no item ID and no barcode. See Catalog.

Fixed ​

  • Fix a CSV catalog upload where an unclosed quote in an item name lost the rows after it. See Catalog.
  • Keep a hardware scanner scanning after the first scan when the keyboard is hidden, also after the Item Not Found in Catalog dialog. See Barcode scanner.
  • Keep translations on the device, so a short network drop when the app opens no longer shows technical codes instead of labels.

From version 3.19.3 to 3.19.7 ​

11.10.2026

Improved ​

  • Show the Hide Keyboard / Show Keyboard button (with Show Option to Hide Keyboard During Scanning on) at the bottom of the screen instead of at the end of the scan list, at a fixed width. Tapping it keeps the cursor in the field you were working in, item ID or location. See Barcode scanner.
  • Keep the Item Not Found in Catalog dialog open when you scan again: the failure sound plays and the extra scan is not recorded. Close it with Got it, Close or Add to Catalog. See The count page.
  • Block a renewal that would leave the license with no credits, with the message This licence would be left with no credits. To continue, add at least one credit package. See License & purchases.
  • Hide the chat bubble on the count page.

From version 3.17.1 to 3.18.1 ​

08.10.2026

Improved ​

  • Show Item Code and Item Image on the scan card by default for a user who never saved count settings. See Personalization settings.

Fixed ​

  • Allow renewing a license that has expired. The renewal is bought as a new full term. See License & purchases.

From version 3.16.0 to 3.17.0 ​

07.10.2026

New ​

Improved ​

Fixed ​

From version 3.14.1 to 3.15.1 ​

06.10.2026

New ​

  • Add the Suggest mapping with AI button to the column-mapping step of a catalog upload. The AI fills only columns that are not mapped yet, and you can change any mapping by clicking the column header. The AI receives only the column headers and a description of the shape of the values, never the cell contents. See Catalog.

Fixed ​

  • Fix mapping a column by clicking its header in a catalog upload. See Catalog.
  • Open the iPhone keyboard when you tap the item identifier or location field by hand while the camera is on. See Barcode scanner.
  • Save Hebrew values in scan fields correctly. See Personalization settings.

From version 3.12.0 to 3.13.0 ​

05.10.2026

New ​

  • Add Scan fields: the primary user or a co-manager defines up to 10 pick-list fields for the whole account, such as status, color or size, which every counter sees in the window after a scan. A field can be required, and can be pre-selected from the item's color, size or model in the catalog. See Personalization settings.
  • Show scan field values in the counts table and the Excel file, and choose for each field whether to merge scans by it or split them into rows. See Recent Counts.

Improved ​

  • Replace the personal Show Status Field After Scan setting with an account-level Status scan field. Accounts where any user had the status field on received the field automatically. See Personalization settings.
  • Translate the Google sign-in error messages into all four languages. See Quick start.

04.10.2026

From version 3.10.1 to 3.10.2 ​

30.09.2026

Fixed ​

  • Add the Continuous scanning (no tap between scans) setting for camera scanning: the camera scans again half a second after each saved count, with no tap on the screen. The setting shows only while the camera is on and is off by default. See Personalization settings.
  • Offer a Smart Suggestion name for an item not in the catalog when its public barcode is carried by at least four other businesses under matching names. See The count page.

Improved ​

  • In receiving from a document, a line with an uncertain match can get a candidate item picked by the AI. The line stays marked Worth checking with the AI tag and is never accepted automatically. See Goods receiving.
  • In a catalog upload, let the AI complete the mapping of columns the app did not recognize by name. See Catalog.
  • In Item Catalog Creation and Count Mode, count an item added with Add to Catalog right away. See Personalization settings.
  • Show Once you start counting, AI insights will appear here. in the insights card of the Overview on days without counts. See Overview.
  • Renew the Yarpa integration fee with the license instead of charging it once. See License & purchases.

Fixed ​

From version 3.0.0 to 3.1.2 ​

12.09.2026

New ​
