- Users with the supported scale can now capture precise food weights directly into the Jolt app measurement items using a Bluetooth-connected scale instead of manual entry, improving accuracy, speed, and auditability of food safety and production records.

In the Web Portal, planners configure each measurement item with a “Measurement type” (Temperature, Weight, or Other), associated input methods (including a “Weight Scale” option for Weight), and appropriate units; existing items are auto-migrated based on their current units.

In the mobile app, when an item is set to use a weight scale, a scale icon appears; tapping it connects to a nearby Bluetooth scale, shows live readings, waits for a stable non‑zero value, and then lets the user record that weight, which is rounded and formatted according to unit-specific display rules, with clear handling for connection errors, invalid readings, and optional manual keypad entry.

- This option lets companies run the Information Library in an online‑only mode so devices don’t permanently download files, reducing on‑device storage usage while keeping content accessible whenever there’s internet connectivity.

This is important because large libraries can quickly consume limited device storage, and this feature gives admins fine‑grained control—at company, content group, location, and device level—over whether files are stored offline or fetched on demand.

It works by introducing a cascading “Download files for offline use” setting in the Web Portal and a matching device‑level toggle in the mobile app. When this is turned off, devices stop downloading library content by default. Instead, devices fetch files from the cloud each time they’re opened, delete them when you navigate away, and provide tools like Clear Storage to remove any previously saved files while still allowing normal access and uploads when the device is online.

- Users can now tap a push notification for a specific work order and be taken directly into that exact work order in the Jolt mobile app, instead of manually navigating through menus, which makes it faster and more reliable to respond to tasks and reduces confusion when managing multiple locations or many work orders.

It works by adding prerequisites for receiving WO push notifications so when the user taps the notification, the app always attempts to deep link to that work order regardless of app state—launching or foregrounding the app as needed, switching to the correct location context, and landing on the appropriate detail view. If sign‑in is required the user authenticates first, and if the work order is unavailable or access is denied, a friendly error screen is shown instead.

- This feature lets admins set smart, automatic due and expiration intervals on each Work Order Template so that every new work order created from that template—on web or mobile—comes pre-populated with consistent dates instead of requiring manual entry.

This matters because it reduces data entry, enforces consistent timing across similar tasks, and improves predictability and compliance with operational timelines. On the web, template editors configure two intervals (“Work Order Due After” and “Once Due, Work Order Expires After”) using a number and time unit.

When a work order is created, the system calculates the due date as current date/time plus the configured due interval (or “Never” if the due interval is zero) and then calculates the expiration date as the due date plus the expiration interval, while still allowing users on mobile and web to override those dates for individual work orders.

- When exporting list results from Jolt using the Print to PDF option, the generated PDF does now includes location details (store name, store number, etc.). This removes ambiguity about which store the report belongs to and helps with compliance details such as who completed the list, display time, and who printed the report are included.

The Zebra TC52X scanner allows you to quickly complete QR code and barcode items in Jolt Lists.

The Jolt app runs on the Zebra TC52X, an Android-based device. This integration lets you use the built-in scanner to complete QR code and barcode items instead of relying on the camera.

Using the Zebra TC52X device makes scanning QR codes and bar codes faster and easier.

This integration is available as of the 6.10.12 app version.

The Jolt app can detect when it is running on a Zebra TC52X device. When you tap the Scan button on a QR code item or a bar code item, the app activates the scanner and waits for a scan. Press the scan button on the device. The app checks the scanned code against the item value and automatically completes the item if they match.

If you don’t want to use the scanner, you can tap the camera icon in the scanner modal to complete the item using the camera.

- Jolt improved list notification reliability which will benefit organizations that generate a lot of notifications. You should see a reduced number of missed notifications.

- On the Web Portal Work Orders page, Jolt will now remember the last work order type you had selected so when you navigate away and back the page, you won’t have to reselect it.

- Removed the size limit on the ETL process for full data loads. The previous size was 1 GB.

System

- Make sure you click on the icon on the Web Portal and try out our new menu layout and leave feedback.

- Reduced the amount of time required to process a full load of data. Also added an option to send data to multiple destinations.

- The main menu and the application sub-menus on the Web Portal have been rearranged to emphasize Jolt’s robust reporting capabilities and frequently used applications. These changes are in beta now but will be rolling out over the next few months.

The main changes are:
