This was a patch release for the native app, that included a quick fix.

What's New

Vehicle Motion Alerts Improvement

Users can enable motion alerts regardless of the locator state. Before this release, users could only enable this is state 10 & 11.

Consumer Position Requests | Guide

When consumers request a position immediately after buying RecovR, they were getting an error that was difficult to understand. We’ve updated this error to be more intuitive and provide the reasoning behind the delay.

No Assets Empty State

When consumers log in to the native app, there are edge cases where they will see no assets. This can happen because:

• A dealer voids their sale erroneously
• A dealer adds the vehicle VIN back to their inventory via the VIN collision flow, de-permissioning a user

The new empty state helps inform the user that this problem can be fixed & provides a pre-filled message to support.

What's New

• Updated Description for Theft Recovery Mode in the Web Apps - We have updated the description on the Theft Recovery card in the web app to better align with our immediate theft case activation and the expected reporting frequencies from the locator.

What's New

• In addition to fixing an issue with enabling face or touch ID, users will now be able to enable face and touch ID directly within the native app. When they enable face or touch ID from their settings, they will be immediately prompted to enter their password, which will enable face or touch ID for all future logins. They will no longer need to log out and back in an additional time.

• Improved Deep linking on iOS - We have updated the deep linking mechanism on iOS to more reliably route you into the native app instead of routing you to the app store.

• Updated Description for Theft Recovery Mode in the Web Apps - We have updated the description on the Theft Recovery card in the web app to better align with our immediate theft case activation and the expected reporting frequencies from the locator.

What's New

• Theft recovery mode notifications - When theft recovery is mode is activated, users will be notified via Push, Email, & SMS notifications. These notifications contain further instructions on how to get help and give them direct access to the theft recovery URL to share with law enforcement.
• Notification configuration & robustness - While building out the theft recovery mode notifications, we have fleshed out notifications to be more easily configured and scaled to future notifications that we would like to implement. Users can disable email and SMS notifications from their app settings and disable push notifications in their phone settings.
• “Update Required” pop-up - Previously, we have had no way to force users to update their app when they have been using out-of-date versions. We have introduced this functionality in the native app so that if we release any breaking changes in the future, we will be able to force them to update. Note: This is not a backward compatible feature, so we will not be able to force users to update who are using version released before Audi A3
