What's New 🔥

  • Life happens, we get it. That’s why we’ve introduced the ability to replace a consumer locator directly from our sales page in this release.
  • We’ve given the billing dashboard a makeover. Users can now view the Service Fee, Charges, and Credits breakdown directly from the dashboard. We’ve also revamped the labelling on a few fields for clarity. Read all about it in our Billing Dashboard help page.
  • We hear you—invoicing can be a pain, but we’re making it simple. This release introduces a number of billing improvements, including unique IDs for all location invoices. We’ve also removed company-level invoices, as these are not used for billing. Instead, you'll see all of your locations' invoices at the company-level billing page. Company Admins and Billing Admins can now expect invoice emails at the start of each month.
  • Some things are too important to wait. Vehicle alerts are now available for two important vehicle states: Theft Recovery Mode and Low Locator Battery. If you’re curious on vehicle alert states generally, read more here.
  • Rarely do things fall into one of two neat little boxes. We’ve added five new vehicle and locator icons, for a grand total of seven icons, to better reflect the different states a vehicle or locator can enter. Now you can understand what your vehicles and locators are up to, on any occasion. Wanna know more? Check out our vehicle and locator icon help page.
  • We know seven icons is a lot to keep track of. We’ve also updated the vehicle and locator maps to include a map key with icon states, so you’re always in the loop.

Improvements

  • Company Admins can now delete vehicles from their inventory—with great power comes great responsibility.
  • When a dealer attempts to pair a locator that is marked as ‘Lost’, we now surface an intermediary screen that has them confirm they now have the locator before being able to proceed with pairing. You can never be too careful.
  • Sometimes things aren’t as simple as they seem. We've added a notes field to vehicles & locators for dealers to use.

Fixed

  • Some billing filters were refusing to cooperate. We’ve resolved that issue and some other minor filter bugs.

Lot Management 3.5.1

Fixed

  • The alert emails were being a little finicky for dealers. Don't worry, we've given them a stern talking to and they're back to delivering like normal.

What's New 🔥

  • Breaking News! The billing dashboard is now available for all RecovR dealers. To get started, contact your RecovR representative to get access and read up on our guide to the billing dashboard & our guide to the new billing administrator add-on role. Company admins also have access to their RecovR contract at the company-level.
  • New and improved roles have been rolled out to all dealers. You spoke about how complicated it was to keep all of the old roles straight, so we simplified our approach. The new & improved roles are: Company Admin, Location Admin, Editor, & Viewer. Check out our overview to the new roles here.
  • Locator reconciliation for sales is now available. Dealers can now take an action against a Locator or sale with a "Lost" status and request its position. Depending on the position of the Locator, the status will update. Dealers can also request the position of unpaired locators in their inventory for easier inventory management. Want to learn more? Read our article on Managing Drive Offs.
  • Do you forget your password sometimes? Our newest update should help. You can now request a one-time access code to the email or phone number associated with your account to login to RecovR.
  • Ever walk to the location of a vehicle only to find out it's in motion? Well not anymore. We've updated the map icons to display two new states: In Motion & Approximate Position. This should help you better understand the location of every vehicle in your inventory.

Improvements

  • Stock number has been added to all vehicle cards
  • You wanted more data and we delivered. Tables will show 200 items instead of 100 items

Fixed

  • Some users were seeing an error when performing a location transfer. This has been resolved.
  • Partial search was being a bit finicky. We've given it a stern talking to and it should behave as expected
  • Some users were seeing "Sold with Low Battery" after a RecovR sale. We've fixed this issue.

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

‍

Consumer App

Consumer App 1.73.0

August 11, 2026

🗺️ Look Back Further Than Yesterday in Position History

Checking where your vehicle has been over the past month used to come up empty. If you asked for a longer stretch of history, the app would tell you there was no data at all for the last 30 days — even when there was plenty. That range now loads the way you expect

🔔 Movement Alerts Turn On When You Ask Them To

If you have ever tried to turn on alerts for your vehicle and been told the locator was already locked when you had not locked anything, that is fixed.

🎨 A New App Icon

RecovR has a new icon on your home screen — cleaner and flatter, without the old gradient. Nothing about how you use the app has changed; it is just easier to spot.

🐛 Fixed

  • In-app surveys can be closed again on Pixel A series phones, so a survey no longer stays stuck on your screen
  • Stopping the ring with the button on your tag now updates the app, so the screen goes back to Play instead of looking like the tag is still ringing
