Mobile 10.30.7 Update
What's New
Version 10.30.7 is here with a quality-of-life improvement to inspection contacts plus a round of targeted fixes — including two hot fixes addressing issues that could impact your day-to-day workflow.
What We Changed
- Blank dashboard and calendar:Inspections were not appearing on the dashboard or calendar for some users on v10.30.4 — search was also returning errors; the data was there, just not showing up
- Android gallery picker:The required Google photo picker now defaults to the Collections tab instead of Photos, reducing taps needed to reach your albums
- One-tap copy for contact phone & email:Inspection contact cards now include copy icons next to phone and email fields — handy for VOIP app users who need to paste numbers into tools like Google Voice or OpenPhone instead of launching the native dialer
- Service names now reflect manual edits:If you've renamed a service on an individual inspection, that updated name now displays correctly throughout the app
- Dashboard restore prompt redesigned:The report restore flow has been replaced with a dismissible prompt on the dashboard — no more getting caught in a loop
- Copy/paste in location tag fields:Pasting text into location fields was not working as expected
- Video crash on report open (iOS):Fixed a crash that could occur when opening reports containing videos
- Location tag field scroll (iOS):The location field in comments was not scrolling horizontally when multiple tags were entered
Timing & Audience
Available now for all iOS and Android users. Update to version 10.30.7 via the App Store or Google Play.

Web Editor
Weekly Web Editor Bug Fixes
What's New
Three fixes to the Web Editor addressing report accuracy and display issues.
What We Fixed
- 2026 FL Wind Mitigation form — outdated footer on photo pages:Photo pages were still showing the previous Wind Mit footer; they now display the correct 2026 revision info.
- Uniform Mitigation Report — page number discrepancies:The report viewer was showing a different total page count than the actual report footer (e.g., 1/8 in the viewer vs. 1/6 in the footer). Page numbers now increment correctly throughout the report.
- Comment descriptions — missing spaces between words:Text in comment descriptions was displaying without spaces between words in the Web Editor. Fixed.

Weekly Web Editor Bug Fixes
What's New
Two fixes to the Web Editor this week — one for reinspection display accuracy and one for report copying reliability.
What We Fixed
- Reinspection status icons now display correctly— The thumbs up icon was showing for both resolved and unresolved items in the reinspection Web Editor. Unresolved will now show thumbs down.
- Copy Report now copies the report you actually selected— When copying a report, the previously-selected report was being duplicated instead of the newly-selected one. The copy action now correctly targets the report you choose.

Mobile App (Android)
Android App Version 10.30.4
What's New
Version 10.30.4 for Android delivers stability and usability fixes, plus a required update to the card scanning experience for in-app payments.
Details
Bug fixes
- Fixed a crash in single-shot camera mode that occurred every time a photo was taken; rapid-fire camera was not affected
- Fixed photo gallery upload order — photos selected from your device gallery now attach in chronological order instead of random order
- Fixed missing "Photo," "Photos,"and"Video"button labels in app comments caused by large font size settings
- Fixed Info Only defect comments appearing in app search results; these are now correctly excluded
- Fixed the 3-dot comment menu on tablet devices collapsing before users could make a selection
Card scanning update (required by Google Play Store)
- Google Play Store requirements have changed how card scanning works on Android
- To scan a card, tap the Card numberfield; your keyboard will appear with saved Google Wallet cards shown above the number pad
- Scroll the card row to find "Scan new card", or tap the card icon in the top-left of the keyboard to open the full card menu
- Your client's card will not be saved to your Google Wallet— the number is read into the payment field only
- If your own saved cards appear, nothing goes through without your approval (CVV or biometric confirmation required)
Note:
iOS is unaffected — the Scan card button remains in the payment form as-is.Timing & Audience
Version 10.30.4 is rolling out gradually to all Android users over the coming days.
What's New
A handful of Web Editor bugs have been fixed this week — covering comment display, video playback, upload UI, PDF generation, and report copying.
What We Fixed
- Multiple Choice Defect Comments — "See More" Expansion:Truncated defect comments on multiple choice items now include a "See More" option, consistent with how standard comments behave.
- Multiple Choice Comment Answer Ordering:Fixed a bug where multiple choice comment answers appeared in the order they were clicked rather than the order set in the editor, in both web and PDF reports.
- 10-Bit HDR Video Playback:Videos filmed in HDR that previously failed to process (or played incorrectly) will now convert properly and play across all major browsers.
- Cover Photo Upload Spinner:The loading spinner no longer lingers after a cover photo uploads successfully.
- PDF Generation for Multi-Report Inspections:Fixed an issue where PDFs showed "report still in progress" even after publishing, when an inspection contained multiple reports and not all were published.
- Report Copy Selecting Wrong Report:Fixed a bug where copying a report to another inspection would copy the previously-selected report instead of the one you actually selected.

Settings
Team Management
Notification Controls
What's New
You can now control which notifications each member of your team receives, and how they get them. Admins manage notification preferences for every inspector from one place, while individual inspectors choose their preferred delivery method — email, in-app, or both.
Why It Matters
This change gives you granular control to make sure the right people get the right notifications, reducing unnecessary notification clutter for you and your team.
Details
- Admin-level control over team notifications — Manage notification settings for each inspector from Settings → Team → Team Notifications, or from the gear icon in the Notifications section of your Dashboard
- Inspector-level delivery preferences — Each team member can choose how they receive notifications (email, in-app, or both) from Settings → User Settings → Edit Notifications, or via the gear in their Dashboard's Notifications section
- Disable by type or by message — Turn off an entire notification category for someone, or keep the category active and silence just one specific message within it
Timing & Audience
Team Notification Settings are rolling out gradually to all Spectora accounts over the next couple of weeks. Once available in your account, admins can start configuring preferences for their team from the Settings menu.

Mobile App (iOS/Apple)
iOS Mobile App Version 10.30.4
What's New
Version 10.30.0 delivers stability and usability fixes across iOS, addressing crashes, menu behavior, scroll issues, and photo ordering — with several fixes specifically targeting iPad and the recent iOS 26 update.
Why It Matters
These fixes resolve disruptions that were interrupting inspection workflows — from menus that wouldn't stay open to summary scroll issues — so you can move through your inspections without fighting the app.
Details
- Fixed the top-right 3-dot menu and search dropdown on iPads that were collapsing immediately or crashing the app
- Fixed search menu behavior in landscape mode on iPad — menus were dismissing before users could interact with them
- Fixed dialogs disappearing on iPads running iOS 26+, including the back button confirmation and annotator settings reset dialogs
- Fixed cover photo not updating when taken from the camera on iOS 26
- Fixed Summary report scroll position resetting to the top after editing a comment or viewing a photo
- Fixed missing "Photo," "Photos," and "Video" button labels in app comments caused by large font size settings
- Fixed Info Only defect comments appearing in app search results; these comments are now correctly excluded
- Fixed the 3-dot comment menu on tablet devices, collapsing before users could make a selection
Timing & Audience
Version 10.30.4 is rolling out gradually to all iOS users over the coming days. Update your app to get the latest fixes.

Weekly Web Editor Bug Fixes
What's New
Several fixes this week across the web editor, reinspections, and report delivery — covering everything from broken image loads to a PDF that apparently never learned how to read.
What We Fixed
- Report name link clickable before report finishes building:The report hyperlink on the Inspection Details page is no longer clickable until the report is fully generated, preventing dead-end clicks mid-build.
- Published report showing "How to access your report" screen instead of the report: Fixed an issue where clients could not access published reports through the client portal despite all agreements being signed and payment received in full. Clients were incorrectly routed to an access checklist screen rather than the report itself.
- Reinspection images not loading unless original report is open (V10):Report media is now properly copied to reinspections, so images load as expected without needing the original report open in the background.
- 4-Point report showing empty section headers when no photos are present:Section headers in 4-Point reports no longer appear when there are no associated photos, keeping the output clean and professional.
- Unable to add captions or location tags to reinspection photos:Captions and location tags can now be added to reinspection photos without issue.
- Reinspection PDF report name breaking mid-word:Line breaks in reinspection PDF report names now fall between words, not in the middle of them.
What's New
A handful of quality-of-life improvements and bug fixes across payments, agreements, scheduling, and the inspection details experience.
Why It Matters
Less friction in everyday workflows — discount codes accept the formats you actually use, calendar previews load reliably, and a few longstanding payment and integration quirks are now resolved.
Details
Improvements
- Discount codes now accept hyphens:Codes like2026-VIPare now valid — dashes are no longer stripped.
- "Link" payment label on Payout Details:Payout Details now correctly displays "Link" (instead of "Card") when Link was used as the payment method, matching the rest of the UI.
- Agreement display when inspector is hidden:When the "hide inspector name and photo" agreement setting is enabled, the inspector area now shows blank space instead of the company logo and name — important for companies operating multiple sub-brands under one Spectora account.
Bug Fixes
- Calendar hover popover:Fixed sporadic failures where the inspection detail popover wouldn't render when hovering over calendar entries.
- $0 payments in Fees & Payments modal:Resolved odd behavior where $0 payments were reassigned to the Primary Client or Primary Balance section after refresh, plus a small alignment fix on the Refund modal's Cancel button.
- RecallChek submission in manual mode:Inspections created in "manual mode" (charges added directly rather than selected from the catalog) now properly submit to RecallChek.
- Inspection Details edit error:Fixed an HTTP2 protocol error some users hit when editing the Inspection Details page in Chrome.
Timing & Audience
All users — these changes are live in production now.
