Tablet Command has released Tablet Command 2.3 to the App Store for manual update. This release improves the manual creation of incidents, added confirmation to transfer of command, enhanced matching for safety keywords, and renamed "Assignments" to "Tasks" throughout the app. It also features bug fixes and performance improvements.
Prior Behavior: When assigned from one group/division to another, units would maintain their work timers.
New Behavior: The work timer will reset when the unit is dragged from one column to another. This provides an easier work flow for those managing an incident. A unit can be dragged from FA (Fire Attack) column to REHAB and its work time indicator will reset to green. Once the unit changes color, there is a visual indicator of how long they have been in that assignment.
Users can now manually create an incident from one streamlined screen instead of a series of screens. This includes setting location, choosing map, and adding checklists, templates, and units.
The party requesting transfer of control now receives a confirmation message once control has been granted either by the original incident manager or after 60 seconds with out a confirmation from the original manager.
Safety keywords matching is now case sensitive so it would match COVID in call comments only if in the web console it was configured as "COVID". "Covid" or "covid" would not match.
Users who have application auto-update enabled will begin receiving the update automatically as part of the phased release, or they can update manually from the App Store.
