AUTHOR: The SafetyChain Team

We’re excited to share that SafetyChain Mobile App version 1.23 will be available starting Tuesday, June 17th — and yes, support for ThermoWorks BlueTherm on iOS has officially arrived!

This long-awaited update has been one of our most requested enhancements, and we deeply appreciate your patience as we brought it to life. This release also includes major performance improvements, critical bug fixes, and thoughtful usability enhancements to make the app faster, more stable, and even easier to use on the plant floor.

Enhancements & Improvements

  • iOS Support for ThermoWorks Connected Devices (Including BlueTherm!)

    You can now use your ThermoWorks BlueTherm device with the SafetyChain app on iOS. Seamless temperature checks, real-time data, and streamlined workflows — no workarounds needed.

  • Over-the-Air (OTA) Updates
    Enjoy faster and more seamless updates! OTA allows us to push most improvements directly to your app without requiring a manual update. You’ll always have the latest fixes and features with minimal disruption.

  • Small Screen Optimizations
    Continued support for small-screen devices, including improvements to the Keystone and Settings menus.

  • Search Bar on Submissions Tab
    Quickly locate records with the new search functionality on the Submissions tab.

  • Non-Compliant Icon on Submissions
    You can now visually identify non-compliant records directly from the submission list.

  • Improved Submissions Filter Terminology
    On the Submissions tab, the “In Progress” filter chip now includes both Pending and Processing records.

  • .heic File Support
    Images taken with newer devices (iOS or Android) that use the high-efficiency .heic format will now automatically convert to .jpeg during upload for greater compatibility.


Key Bug Fixes

  • Form Submission Stability

    • Resolved an issue where forms showed as incomplete if a non-required correction-enabled field was left empty.

    • Fixed bugs that caused the app to crash during submission or while accessing saved forms, especially those with attachments.

  • GS1 Barcode Accuracy

    • Fixed a bug where the last two digits of a scanned GS1 barcode were being altered in some scenarios.

  • Task & Form Visibility

    • Resolved display issues where tasks or forms were incorrectly shown or hidden based on location or resource settings.

  • Improved “Submit & Repeat” Functionality

    • Submission data now processes correctly when using Submit & Repeat, and field-level attachments are carried over and open properly.

  • Audit Scoring Alignment

    • Fixed inconsistencies between mobile and web audit scoring when field visibility impacted calculations.

  • iOS-Specific Fixes

    • “Next” button now works correctly to move through input fields on iOS.

    • Fixed submission errors after updating the app with saved forms that included image attachments.


Performance & Architecture Updates

  • Stability at Login & Submission

    • Reduced data fetched at login and optimized memory usage to prevent crashes, especially with large forms or many saved submissions.

  • Improved Data Handling

    • Added backend improvements to safeguard submission integrity and reduce retry-related delays when saving or syncing.

  • Refined Data Security

    • Data visibility is now more reliably enforced for tasks and resources, improving role-based data access.


We’re continuing to make the SafetyChain Mobile App more powerful and reliable with every release. Thank you for your feedback and partnership — we can’t wait for you to try these improvements in version 1.23!
