Manager app updates - Filters, Scan Packages, add Meter readings and more

A roundup of recent Building Manager app updates - from package scanning and in-app documents to metre readings, case filters, broadcasts, and better ways to keep your team in the loop.

To use these features, make sure you’re on the latest version of the Building Manager app from the App Store or Google Play.

Cases

You can now filter cases by status, type, or assignee. Filters persist per site on your local device, so your preferred view is ready next time you open that site.

Packages

You can now scan packages in and out from the Manager app. Capture photos of the label and the package itself, and on iOS use OCR to read the label for you - faster intake with less manual typing.

Documents

Documents get a cleaner UI, and you can open them directly in the app instead of being sent out to a webpage. Policies, manuals, and other files stay where you’re already working.

Metre Readings

Log metre readings from the Manager app without hopping over to the desktop.

Comments & Mentions

Tag users in comments to pull the right people into a conversation.

Assets

Search for assets by location when adding to cases.

Work Orders

Sending a work order is smoother with UI improvements.

Broadcasts

The broadcast creation flow is clearer end to end. You can also send push notifications and SMS from the app when you need to reach residents quickly.
