Elevate Your User Experience: Exciting Product Updates for September

In today’s fast-paced digital world, where user experience reigns supreme, we are thrilled to share two significant product updates that will transform the way you interact with our mobile app. At Record360, we are constantly striving to enhance our offerings, making them more user-friendly, visually appealing, and efficient. So, without further ado, let’s dive into these exciting September updates.

Redesigned Photo Instructions

A Makeover for Enhanced User Experience

The first major update on our list is the complete makeover of our mobile app’s camera instructions. We’ve taken your feedback to heart and revamped the design to ensure a seamless and enjoyable user experience. Here are the benefits of this update:

  • Updated Design: We’ve given the instructions a fresh, modern look, making them more intuitive and visually appealing. No more struggling to navigate through confusing instructions!
  • Progress Bar: Keeping track of your progress is now a breeze. With the newly added progress bar, you’ll always know how many instructions you have left to complete.
  • Strikethrough Behavior: Ever wondered which instructions you’ve already captured photos for? Wonder no more! Our intuitive strikethrough feature will make it crystal clear.
  • Collapsible/Expandable Instructions: We understand that flexibility is key. You can now collapse or expand instructions, allowing you to pick up where you left off without any hassle.
  • Instruction Labels: For added clarity, we’ve included instruction labels on photos within the media detail screen. This feature enhances your ability to reference your images and instructions conveniently.

More Control, More Clarity

The previous instructions had their quirks, but we’ve addressed those issues comprehensively. Previously, users had to follow instructions before capturing additional photos, which often disrupted the flow. Moreover, readability under certain lighting conditions was a challenge. With our new design, you have the freedom to switch seamlessly between instructions and capturing additional photos according to your preference.

Before & After Photos Instruction Mode

Streamline Your Workflow for Efficiency

Our second exciting update introduces the “Before & After Photos Instruction View.” We’ve reimagined the way you manage inspection photos, making your workflow more organized and efficient. Here are the features of this update:

  • Group Inspection Photos: Say goodbye to the days of jumbled photos and disorganized inspections. Now, you can group inspection photos based on instructions directly on the dashboard, ensuring a smooth and organized process.
  • Comparison Mode: Dive deeper into your inspections with our comparison mode. This feature allows you to view photos by section between check-out and return, enabling better analysis and decision-making.

In the past, there was a disconnect between photos and their associated instructions. This update bridges that gap, ensuring a genuine before-and-after comparison and simplifying the process of achieving complete photo and inspection compliance.

Conclusion

At Record360, we’re committed to providing you with the best user experience possible. These two exciting product updates for September mark a significant step toward that goal.
