RecovR Release Notes

Dealers

Lot Management 1.41.0

November 8, 2023

Coming Soon!

🚀 What's New

Prevent vehicle creation for vehicles sold in the past 7 days
  • Since the introduction of the VIN Collision workflow we have found that dealers often recreate vehicles within hours of selling them.  This breaks the connection the user who purchased the locator has rendering them unable to see or track their vehicle until manually corrected.
  • To prevent this if a user tries to create a vehicle that has been sold with RecovR in the last 7 days they are prevented from doing so and redirected instead to the Sale page to void the sale if desired.
  • This should make the choice more explicit while still allowing dealers to create vehicles when necessary.

Coming Soon!

What's New? 🔥

  • Navigational Breadcrumbs: All users will now see navigational breadcrumbs on desktop and mobile. This change is based on the navigation UX survey responses we received. In addition to the breadcrumbs taking you farther up in the hierarchy, they also store your most recent search & filters for each page in this page during your session.

October 16, 2023

Coming Soon!

What's New? 🔥

  • Key Tracking is Here: Our new RecovR for Keys product has launched and can now be sold alongside RecovR Locators! It tracks your key inventory indoors and outdoors to reduce loss and accelerate your sales process. Interested in adding keys to your F&I product portfolio? Contact us
  • Changes to RecovR Sales Flow: You’ll need to select a RecovR product the next time you make a RecovR sale, so check the box for “RecovR Locator” as shown below. Our newest product, RecovR Tags, will also be listed, but it is only clickable if your dealership has added key tracking to its product offering.
  • Sidebar Navigation Changes: You may also notice that Locators are now found in a new section of the side bar called "RecovR Products." Rest assured that all the data is still there!

Dealer App 1.0.54

June 10, 2026

🗺️ Your Zones Are Back on the Map

Zones had stopped drawing in Map View, which left you with no way to see at a glance where anything actually sat on your lot. They show up again for Vehicles, Keys, Tags, and Locators.

⚡ Position History That Loads Quickly and Stays Up

Looking back at where a vehicle has been should be fast, and on an iPhone it should not take the app down with it. Both are better in this patch.

  • History covering less than a month now takes the quick route rather than the one built for long-range lookups, so recent history comes back faster

🐛 Fixed

  • The date and time range filter shows again on the vehicle map, so you can narrow history down to the window you care about
  • On Android, the Mute and Unmute button is no longer hidden behind your phone's navigation bar while a tag is ringing — the app now leaves room for it

Dealer App 1.0.53

May 19, 2026

🔔 Ring a Tag or Key From Your Phone

Tracking down a misplaced key used to mean walking the lot and hoping to hear it. Tap Find Tag or Find Key on an asset and a new screen rings it straight from your phone, with a map showing where you are standing and where the tag was last seen.

  • The screen moves through Press Play, Connecting, and Ringing, so you always know whether it has reached the tag yet
  • Pause stops the sound whenever you want, and Mute silences it while the lights keep flashing, so you can keep hunting quietly in a showroom

💬 Get Help Without Leaving the App

A new RecovR tab sits in the bottom navigation bar. It is a direct line to the support team and to the help articles, so a question about a locator no longer means switching to email and describing your setup from scratch.

  • Message support and see your whole conversation history in one place
  • Push notifications tell you when support replies, and tapping one drops you back into the conversation
  • Search the help articles and tutorials without leaving the app

🔑 Clearer Errors When a Tag Will Not Pair

Pairing used to fail without telling you why. The app now gives the same reasons the web interface does, so you know whether to grab a different tag or just wait.

  • Low Battery appears for any tag under 50 percent, so you find out before the tag goes in the car
  • Tag Not in Range appears when a tag has not checked in for more than ten minutes

🐛 Fixed

  • On Android, tapping the hotline number now opens your dialer instead of doing nothing
