Assets on the Go – Release Notes

Version 3.3 is the last release for Assets on the Go. It is replaced by Equipment List v3.4.

Version 3.3

Receipts that are linked to an asset or task, now inherit the asset/task’s tags. Editing of the tags directly within the linked receipt is not supported. Similarly for tasks linked to assets.
Exported receipts, when opened for editing, will now automatically remove links to assets/tasks that were not part of the export, rather than display an ‘Unknown’ in the links list.
The groups displayed on the main screen can now be filtered using the Groups filter in the sidebar (filter screen on iPhone).
On iPhone: added a Filter settings screen, accessed from the main screen using the filter button in the navigation bar.
Added task reminders, which creates and links a reminder in the Reminders app for a chosen task.
Added Equipment List report.

Updated for iOS 16.1 and macOS Ventura.
Removed the ‘close document’ toolbar button from the sidebar’s navigation bar.
Notes editing is now performed in-place in the notes field, instead of opening a dedicated notes editor screen.
Improved workflow when importing photos.
The Save and Cancel buttons have been removed from all screens. An explicit save is no longer required when editing any data as all changes will be automatically applied.
In the task screen, a linked asset can now be tapped to view the asset.
Added an overdue label to the task screen.
Asset groups can no longer be renamed or deleted from the Asset screen. This can only be performed from the Groups filter.
Removed task due notifications. This feature had a number of bugs making it unreliable.
Added a share button to the Receipt Document screen.
The asset and task notes field no longer supports Markdown formatting.
Updated privacy policy.

When importing the version 2 database into an empty document, the document had to be closed and then re-opened to see the imported data.
In the Database Import screen, selecting Delete Database wasn’t actually deleting the database.
Across the whole app, picker popup lists were sometimes failing to appear when their field was tapped.
While editing an asset, task or receipt: if the Tags editor screen was opened and an associated tag was deleted, the tag was not being removed from the asset/task/receipt.
In some cases, viewing a receipt would cause the app to hang.
In the main screen, the asset notes popup was blank.

A ‘Hide all tasks’ option has been added to the side bar.
The app can now export a report as a PDF. Tap the share button in the bottom toolbar and select one of the report options. The data in the PDF will be the same as shown in the list – use the filter options in the side bar before generating the report.

The icon for an overdue task has been changed.
The Date range search option has been removed from the search filter menu and is now part of the side bar. (iPad & Mac)
The Show completed tasks search option has been removed from the search filter menu and is now part of the side bar. (iPad & Mac)
The Search Filter menu button has been removed. (iPad & Mac)

Assets on the Go now uses a document file (.assets) instead of a database to store data. This provides 2 main advantages: you can have any number of asset documents; and, asset data can easily be shared with others.
The previous version database can be imported into an assets document. Creating a new document, or opening an empty document, will trigger the import screen.

The user interface has been completely redesigned.
Assets, tasks and receipts now have an optional Tag field to allow like things to be tagged.
Asset lists have been removed. Existing asset lists will be converted into tags.
Task groups have been removed. Existing task groups will be converted into tags.
These release notes can also be viewed from the About screen.
