2024 Releases


5 December

We’re thrilled to share the latest features and enhancements we’ve been working on to make your operations smoother, smarter, and more efficient. Here's what's new:


New Features

Ensure Compliance with Integrated BT Probe Tracking

Stay on top of compliance effortlessly! Tasks completed without an integrated probe are now flagged as non-compliant, so you can take control of your standards like never before.

  • Customizable: Enable this feature only for the tasks or columns where it matters most.
  • Visual Indicators: Easily track compliance with updated analytics, summaries, and task screens.
  • Completion Reminders: Receive clear messaging when a task requires the device for compliance.


Persistent Planner Alerts for Critical Notifications

Never miss a beat! Our new recurring alert system keeps you informed when actions are overdue:

  • Cook Alerts: Sounds every 10 seconds until acknowledged.
  • Hold Alerts: Notifies you every minute, ensuring you stay on top of your game.


Faster Cook Creation with Simplified Size Selection

We’ve eliminated unnecessary clicks! The size field now defaults to the first available option, making your workflow faster and easier—especially when there’s only one choice.


Flexible Form Management

Gain more control over your forms with the ability to hide them when not needed:

  • Retain completed form data while preventing new entries.
  • Automatically cancel schedules and hide drafts.


Quarterly Task Scheduling

Plan smarter with our new quarterly task frequency! Perfect for recurring tasks that need to happen at the start of every quarter:

  • January 1st
  • April 1st
  • July 1st
  • October 1st


Enhanced Yearly Tasks with Monthly Flexibility

Yearly tasks just got more versatile! Add a monthly period check so your sections are visible all month long for better planning and execution.


Assign Actions More Efficiently

Group users by level when assigning actions. With one click, assign tasks to everyone in a group—saving you time and effort!


Introducing the Form Completion Summary Report

We’ve created a brand-new report format for a deeper look into task completion. This report shows overall completion percentages instead of focusing solely on “Yes” responses, giving you a fresh perspective on performance.




20 November V11.20.1

You can now easily manage staff pin access in bulk using the following steps:


  1. Access the Bulk Edit Feature:

Click on the Manage Staff Access Area button to begin.

  1. Select Users:

Choose the users whose access settings you wish to edit.

  1. Edit Access Row by Row:

  • Disable: Deactivates the feature for all selected users.

  • Selecting Enable will enable "Training" for both User A and User B.
  • Selecting Disable will disable "Training" for both.
  • Leaving it Blank will keep "Training" enabled for User A and disabled for User B.
  1. Save Changes:

Once you have made your selections, save the changes to apply the updated settings.

This feature allows for quick and flexible adjustments to staff access settings while preserving any unchanged configurations.


View Store Specific tasks from Master Template

New feature where you can view which stores have store specific templates and switch them back to master if need be. From the master task template if you see this message and box, then it means at least one store has a store specific version of that task.




  • To view which store it is, open the dropdown list and any stores listed have a store specific template.
  • To overwrite the store specific template and switch it back to the master select the store and save the master.
  • If you cannot see that box on a template it means that all stores are on the master.
  • This feature is available for Corporate Master level and above


V2 Form Overall Summary report

New report format where you can see the percentage of audits and forms and then break it down to regions and see your average per region,


Add ability to create courses and lessons to Squiz Academy as Corporate master and above

You can find a detailed explanation of how to create and manage your Squiz Academy courses and lessons in this article - Here

If you need help enabling Squiz Academy please reach out to our support team.


Gateway Battery Alerts - Coming Soon

New alert system to inform you if you gateway has been unplugged or is no longer connected to mains power.


When a gateway is unplugged we will now send 5 alerts to a user before the gateway dies:

  1. First will be a notification that the gateway has been unplugged
  2. Second will be a notification that the gateway is now below 75%
  3. Third will be a notification that the gateway is now below 50%
  4. Fourth will be a notification that the gateway is now below 25%
  5. Fifth will be a notification that the gateway has gone offline due to the battery running out.


The difference between the first 4 alerts and the final is that the final alert cannot be muted and can only be removed by reaching out to support in the case of a power outage or dead gateway, or by plugging your gateway back in.


This final alert will stay on the screen unmoving until one of these actions occurs




26 September V9.26.3

Correctly Align all Headings to Row Columns for Task Detail report

We have made an update to our PDF export for the task details report, the system now forces an even width to all columns and wraps the text within the column. This means all text is now evenly spread out across the table and all data is cleanly aligned to the heading.


Ability to add tasks multiple reports

There was a display issue where tasks would only show the first report they were assigned to rather than showing all the reports. This display issue has now been resolved.


Fire Safety Equipment report

We have made improvements to our maintenance reporting focusing on cleaning up the Fire & Safety Equipment report, if you are not already managing your equipment maintenance in Squizify but you want to learn how have a chat to our SquizSquad


Improvements to Audit and Forms Scoring

We have made further improvements on our form and audit scoring with expanded ability to include scaling points with a slider as well as the ability to include negative or decimal values.


Add Sort by Region to Analytics Page

For our customers that use our Region feature to group their venues via Regions or Areas outside of State you can now select the Group by Region option on the Analytics page. If you believe that Regions would be of benefit to your operations please get in touch with the SquizSquad and we will be happy to help you out.


Duplicate Gateway showing

There was a scenario where our gateways would display in setup twice, this display issue has been resolved.


Overall Form Summary Report

We have added a new report for customers who use our Forms or Audits system, you can now view all your forms across all your locations as a percentage of Yes answers.


Task Detail export reporting timestamp in UTC time

We have made a change to our PDF export function that would show task times in UTC time rather than the correct timezone, these now show as the local timezone of the store.


Option to view different frequency task completion

New option to view completion of the different frequency options on the analytics page. This only affects the number of tasks box


Bold allergens in ingredient list automatically

We have added the capability to automatically bold allergens when printing an allergen list of a product. This setting needs to be enabled by our team so if you are wanting to see how Squizify can help you with PEAL requirements then please reach out to your friendly SquizSquad




12 September Release V9.11.1

Add Download to Daily Squiz

Thanks to requests to have different ways to view and interact with the Daily Squiz we have added the option to download the Daily Squiz as a PDF for our customers.


Live Report emailing for large reports

We have worked with our customers to improve the experience when handling large reports on the Squizify platform. Now if you are looking to run a report that cannot be displayed in the platform it will request your email address and you will receive the report directly in your inbox. You can also add additional emails if you want more than one person to receive the report.


Allow PDF update to actions

We have expanded our actions system to allow our customers using our desktop platform to upload a PDF instead of an image when creating an action. This option will open the upload as normal but instead of only showing images you can now upload a PDF document as well.


Audit and Form Scoring improvements

We have expanded the scoring options on our forms and audits system. Our customers can now use negative numbers, decimal numbers, checkboxes with multiple options that all calculate together to give you an overall score on your form or audit.

29 August V8.28.2

N/A Option for Task Rows

New column type that can be added to any task, if this option is added to a task and left unticked then the task needs to be filled out as normal. If it is ticked then the row is marked as complete regardless of what other fields are required. If you want help setting this new tool up or if you just have questions about how it works then reach out to the Squiz Squad to help you out with it.


Improvements to the Council Visit Function

It is no longer mandatory to upload a file when adding a council visit to the platform, if you are not already using our council visit system reach out to the Squiz Squad for more information about this great tracking tool


Update to the Sync function for Task Pin

When using staff pin you need to ensure that your tasks stay in sync between what you have published and what requires a pin. Now when you add or remove a task if you go to Pin Settings and click sync tasks this will ensure the tasks are updated with what is currently published. From there you can selected those you want to require a pin, then when you go to a staff member to update their access you will only see the tasks that require a pin. If you want more help with Staff pin then reach out to the Squiz Squad and we will help you out.


Add Product Instructions to Label QR code

For those of our customers who use our label and product features we have added further functionality for you. You can now not only include ingredients, allergens and nutrional information via the QR code on a label you can now add instructions for your staff on how to create a label either embedded in the QR code or directly from the Labels page preview. If this sounds like a feature that would improve your efficiency and reliability then reach out to our Squiz Squad and we would love to help you out.




18 July V7.18.1

New Reference Field for Forms

There is now a new reference field added to forms so that you can categorise your forms. This could match a batch number, a date or any other alphanumeric value that you want to be able to search for later to find your form.

This is available to all users who use our forms feature, if you are not using forms and want more information feel free to reach out to our team.


Dormant Sensor Setting

We have created a new system that will be incredibly useful for our customers who use display fridges, bain maries and other service period only temperature systems. You can now add a dormant schedule to a sensor which will mean that the readings during the dormant period are excluded from reporting and alerting, this means if you have a unit like a bain marie that is turned on from 11am-9pm everyday you could set a dormant period from 9pm-11am each day so that the readings taken by the sensor are ignored during this period, you will not be alerted for any over or under temperature thresholds and your sensor reports will also ignore these times when calculating average temperatures. If you would like to have a deeper Squiz at this new feature then reach out to the demo and we will be happy to show you how to set it up


Auto Refresh on Sensor Dashboard

Our Sensor dashboard is a great page to use a home screen as you can see what temperature all your sensors are at any given time, this use to be a bit of a headache as if you did not refresh your page it could get out of sync. Now your dashboard will refresh regularly so that your data is always up to date.

This improvement is active for all users who use our live temperature monitoring sensors, if you are not using our sensor feature and are interested please reach out to our team.


Assign Actions to all user levels

If you are using actions you can now enable any user to be able to be assigned an action by any other user, this means a store manager could assign an action to an area manager, or an area manager could assign an action to a store user. This setting is managed by the Show in Actions toggle in the user profile, and is available for all users who use our actions system, if you are not currently using our actions feature or want some help setting this up get in contact and we would love to help you out.


Store Closures handled by Reports

Closed stores are now excluded from reports, this means if you are a store that closes on the weekend, or a Monday then these days will not show in your reporting. This feature works using our flexible store closure feature, so if you are a venue that closes and are not already using our store closure feature and want some help with it, reach out to our team and they would be happy to help.


Allergen Matrix updated for PEAL requirements

We have updated our Allergen matrix to be in line with the PEAL requirements. This is an update to our recipe management system where you can store recipes, nutrional information and allergens, which can then be called upon at the touch of a button. If you need help updating your recipes or want to find out more about it then please reach out to our team and we can have a Squiz with you.




5 July

Recurring Alert

You can now create recurring alerts which can be set to reoccur weekly or monthly.

Head over to our Create an Alert for your Store page to see how alerts works.


Supplier Categories

Supplier categories allow you to view only specified suppliers in each category. Suppliers can be assigned to categories in the supplier page, then you can select which category you want to show in each task section from the task template.


You can find further information in our Adding & Editing Supplier Contact Details article.


Weekly and Monthly Squiz

Additional viewing options have been added to the Daily Squiz email allowing you to view weekly and monthly reporting.

See more in our How to trigger and what is the Daily & Weekly Squiz article.


Custom Period Check

We have updated our period checks to allow for custom timeframes providing greater flexibility to better suit your business. When creating or editing tasks ensure 'Period Check Enabled' at the top of the screen is ticked, open the Section Settings and change the 'Unit' to 'Custom', from here you can select the start date and how many days within the rotation.

See more about period checks here: Period Check Updates.


Auto Report Emails

We now have the ability to generate and email reports every Monday and on the 1st of each month, please reach out to our support team via the in-app chat bubble or email to set this up.


Updated Allergens Section

On 25 February 2024 new requirements entered into force for the labelling of allergens in food. In response to these new requirements, Squizify has updated our list of allergens. No other changes were required and allergens can be viewed and accessed using existing methods.


You can learn more about the new regulations on the Food Standards website or via the following link: P1044 - Plain English Allergen Labelling


Time as a row compliance option

When creating or editing Master Tasks, you now have the option to set row completion timeframes within which the specified rows must be completed.

To set a row compliance timeframe go to the Master Tasks menu, open the respective Task, then for each individual row set the Must be completed after and Must be completed before times.


Bulk Edit Sensors for Brand Admins

Brand admins now have the ability to edit multiple sensors at the same time, to do this:

  1. Open the Sensors Dashboard
  2. Select '+ Settings' on the top right corner of the page,
  3. Select '+ Bulk Edit' at the top of the settings menu
  4. Select all sensors you wish to edit, along with the fields which require editing


Force action on failed response of a form or audit

When editing or creating new forms and audits, you can now make an action required when a question is answered in a particular way.

I.e. If a 'No' or 'Fail' response is provided, the staff member can be required to complete an action.




7 May

Support Signature Pad - Audit Squiz/Tasks/Forms

New input type for all task and forms is now available. You can now add a signature box to any task, form or Audit so that you can make sure the task is signed off by the staff member completing the work. This new signature field is a free draw field so users will be able to draw their signature on the field and then in reports you will see a Yes/No if the signature has been completed

Signature Pad


Duplicate Master Task - Tasks

When creating a new task if you would like to just copy a current task as a template you can now duplicate the task and have a new version to edit. This will copy all settings across but will be a new task and will not generate until it is saved. This in conjunction with the new Unpublish/Publish means you can duplicate and work on a task before it shows to your customers.

Duplicate Tasks or Sections


Extension of our Period Check Feature

We have previously had the ability to create a task that only shows sections on certain days of a week or days of a month, now we have the ability to show on a certain day of a fortnight, ie. First Monday, Second Tuesday etc. or show for a quarter, ie. Section shows for first quarter (Jan-Mar) and third Quarter (Jul-Sep) which will be a yearly task that just needs to be completed twice a year, once in first Quarter, once in Third Quarter. There is also a yearly period check where you can make a section show on a specific date each year.

Period Check Updates


Ability to manage compliance range on Section - Tasks

Previously tasks had to be built without flexibility so that compliance ranges could be applied to those rows. Now you can set a compliance range to all added rows so tasks can be far more flexible. The range can be set differently for each section so for example you could have a frozen section, cold section and heated section with fully customizable rows that can be added as per different daily requirements.

Section Level Compliance


Publish/Unpublish status - Tasks

After hearing feedback from customers about the need to work on tasks before they are required to be completed for compliance we have added an unpublished status which will have the task in the backend but not show on the frontend. This is also useful if a task is no longer required but the reporting can’t be lost as an unpublished task will no longer require to be competed or show on the front end but still available to be selected in the reporting section

Unpublish Tasks


Monthly Squiz

We have a new and improved daily squiz report, each day if you are configured to receive a daily squiz it will now include Yesterday, Last week and last month for all of the stores you are assigned to as well as a total overall for your stores.

How to trigger and what is the Daily & Weekly Squiz


Offline Humidity reading

When a sensor has a humidity reading that is above the sensor operating conditions the sensor will now reflect this by showing the reading as Offline - Humidity


Make Offline Sensors more obvious

Offline sensors now clear and obvious from dashboard see example below, when a sensor goes offline the last reading will no longer show which has previously been held to show the last temperature and will now make it clear that the sensor is offline.


Dashboard clickable/interactive

It is now possible to navigate directly from the analytics dashboard to Tasks, Forms and Actions by clicking on the corresponding area of the dashboard. This means you can be viewing your analytics then dive straight into your work with just one click.


Filter for venues on analytics page

We have improved the functionality of the filter on our analytics dashboard that can now be filtered by a range of variables to make sure that you can view the information you need at your fingertips

](https://support.squizify.com/en/article/where-do-all-the-numbers-and-analytics-come-from-1icnztw/)

Language Selector Improvement

For those of our customers who use our language selector feature we have moved the selector to a more prominent location allowing you to easily navigate to and switch between languages as required.


Multi Printer Capability

We have added the ability to add as many printers as you need to a profile and print to whichever printer you want, you can set a default which is where the quick print will print to but otherwise there will be a pop up asking them where they would like to print.

This works for using one device, whether it is a tablet or phone, and connecting to multiple printers via either bluetooth or wifi. However if you are wanting to use multiple devices and print directly to each printer from any device any time, then the printers will need to be connected via wifi.

This setting is in early access and if you would like access please contact the Squizify support team.

Multi-Printer Ability


Multiple assignees for actions

Actions has become more flexible with the ability now to assign any action to as many of your staff as required via a multi select drop down box. The list will still include all the same staff members but where before you could only select one now you can select as many as you would like. The action still only needs to be completed once so if you are wanting the action completed by all staff members then you will need to create multiple actions.

Creating an action
