What's New in VaultVin

Current version: v1.6.4

Version 1.6.4 — September 2026

Garage Module Updates

  • New garage filters — switch between vehicles and clients, search by vehicle, client name, phone, or email, and narrow garage cards by date range and status
  • More client details at a glance — garage-card rows now show the client name and phone number, while client rows show active cards compared with all cards
  • Edit garage clients — update a client's contact name, phone number, and email directly from the garage client table
  • Delete unused clients safely — clients without garage cards can be removed after confirmation; clients with service history remain protected
  • Client contact details on garage cards — each card now shows the client's name, phone, and email, including a one-click call action
  • Automatic activity history — status changes and action or part additions, edits, removals, and completion toggles are recorded on the garage card
  • Focused comments view — regular comments remain the default view, with an option to reveal the complete card activity history

Clearer Prices

  • Detailed receipt calculations — garage actions, parts, fuel, maintenance, and purchase rows now show quantity × unit price = total
  • Invoice progress summary — garage cards show the value of completed actions and used parts compared with the full invoice value

Version 1.6.3 — September 2026

Technical Improvements

  • Improved application reliability and deployment stability

Version 1.6.2 — September 2026

Filter Controls

  • Reset filter is now yellow — the reset action is easier to distinguish from primary blue actions when filters are active

Version 1.6.1 — September 2026

Garage Card Layout

  • Comments now appear below Actions and Parts — service work and installed parts are shown first, followed by the card discussion and invoice

Version 1.6.0 — September 2026

Internationalisation (i18n)

  • Three languages supported — the entire app is now available in English, Polish, and Russian; switch language from the Settings page and every label, placeholder, and error message updates instantly
  • Vehicle, Fuel, Maintenance, Purchase, Garage, Settings, Sign-in, and Landing pages — every hard-coded English string replaced with translation keys; nothing is missed

Version 1.5.2 — August 2026

Landing Page

  • New: public landing page — a new page at / and /page/landing describes everything VaultVIN can do before you sign up; browse features, then hit Get Started to open the registration form directly or Log In to sign in
  • Logo click takes you home — clicking the VaultVIN logo on any page now navigates back to the landing page

Smarter navigation

  • Get Started opens registration directly — the "Get Started" and "Join Now" buttons on the landing page open the sign-up form immediately, skipping the login screen
  • Changelog close returns to where you came from — if you opened the changelog from the landing page, the Close button takes you back there; from the sign-in page it goes back to sign-in

Version 1.5.1 — August 2026

Edit Records

  • Edit maintenance actions — click the edit button on any maintenance row to update the action name, quantity, or unit price directly from the maintenance list; the total is recalculated automatically
  • Edit purchase items — same experience on the purchase list; edit product name, quantity, or unit price inline
  • Edit fuel items — same experience on the fuel list; edit fuel item name, quantity, or unit price inline

Fuel

  • Filter by plate number — the fuel list now has a plate-number search field, matching the same filter already available on the maintenance and purchase pages
  • Image is now optional when adding fuel — you no longer need to attach a receipt photo to save a fuel record; just fill in the required fields and submit

Smarter add limits

  • The "add action" button on new fuel, maintenance, and purchase forms now also accounts for your remaining monthly record allowance — if you have used all available records for the month the button is disabled immediately

Bug fix

  • Action modal no longer hidden behind toolbar — the add/edit action popup on the new maintenance form was obscured by the page toolbar on some browsers; fixed by rendering the modal outside the page stacking context

Version 1.5.0 — August 2026

Company Accounts

  • New: register as a company — businesses can now create a company account with name, NIP, email, contact person, and full address; company accounts unlock the Garage module

Garage (Company Feature)

  • New: Garage module for company users — manage your service clients and vehicle repair cards in one place; create a service card for any vehicle, add actions (labour) and parts, track card status (Open → In Progress → Closed), leave internal comments
  • New: invoice PDF generation — generate a printable PDF invoice directly from a closed service card with all actions, parts, and totals
  • New: invoice photo upload → automatic records — upload the invoice photo on a closed card and VaultVin automatically creates maintenance and purchase records for the vehicle owner; the records appear on the owner's Maintenance and Purchase pages with your company name as the station/store; these records cannot be manually deleted by the vehicle owner

Vehicles

  • Edit plate number — you can now update a vehicle's licence plate directly from the vehicle list; duplicate plates are rejected with a clear error
  • Safer vehicle removal — deleting a vehicle that has a garage service history now unlinks it from your account instead of permanently removing it; the vehicle record and its service history are preserved

Tables

  • New: Station column on Maintenance table — see the service station name for every maintenance record at a glance
  • New: Station column on Fuel table — see the fuel station name alongside every fill-up entry
  • New: Store column on Purchase table — see the shop or supplier name for every purchase record
  • Filter by plate number — maintenance and purchase lists now have a plate-number search field so you can quickly find records for a specific vehicle

Garage records are protected

  • Maintenance and purchase records created automatically from a garage invoice have their edit and delete buttons disabled, keeping the service history intact

Version 1.4.0 — June 2026

Purchases

  • New: log spare parts and workshop purchases — you can now record any vehicle-related purchase (parts, accessories, bodywork) with date, price, receipt image, and notes; find it under the new Purchase page in the navigation

Browse & Find Records

  • Filter records by date range — narrow down fuel, maintenance, and purchase lists to a specific time period using the new date range filter
  • Sort any column — click a column header to sort your records by date, odometer, price, or any other field
  • Pagination — long lists are now split into pages for faster loading and easier browsing

Navigation

  • Simpler navigation — the Dashboard has been removed; add a fuel fill, maintenance visit, or purchase directly from the navigation bar
  • Garage renamed to Vehicles — the Garage page is now called Vehicles for clarity

Version 1.3.4 — May 2026

Fuel & Maintenance

  • Record any odometer reading, not just the latest — you can now log a fuel fill or maintenance visit with any positive odometer value, even if it is lower than your vehicle's current mileage; useful for backdating entries or correcting past records
  • Delete any record, regardless of mileage order — all fuel and maintenance records now have an active delete button; you are no longer blocked from removing an older entry

Version 1.3.3 — May 2026

Design

  • Unified table layout across all pages — fuel, garage, and maintenance lists have been redesigned with a consistent table: icon-based column headers and cleaner row actions
  • Vehicle card shows make logo and plate together — easier to identify your vehicle at a glance in the list

Vehicle

  • License plate is now required — the form validates the field and shows a "Required" hint before you can save
  • New confirmation step when adding a vehicle — tick "This is my vehicle" before saving to prevent accidental adds

Security

  • Improved protection against automated abuse — additional safeguards have been added to the sign-up and sign-in flows to reduce the risk of automated attacks

Version 1.3.2 — May 2026

Fuel & Maintenance

  • Fix: price is now calculated correctly when quantity or unit price use a decimal comma — entering 29,39 and 6,68 now correctly shows 196.33 instead of the wrong 203.00

Version 1.3.1 — May 2026

Fuel & Maintenance

  • Fix: odometer input now works when adding a first record for a new vehicle — the mileage field is correctly enabled as soon as you select a vehicle, even if no records have been logged for it yet

Data Reset

  • All vehicles and records have been cleared — please re-add your vehicles and records

Version 1.3.0 — May 2026

Fuel & Maintenance

  • Add a personal note to any fuel fill or maintenance visit — tap the note icon on a record to read the full text (up to 500 characters)
  • Maintenance image is now optional — save a maintenance record without attaching a photo
  • Deleting a record now automatically removes the attached image from storage

Vehicle

  • VIN decoding improved — lookups now use an upgraded service for better make and model recognition

Data Reset

  • All vehicles and records have been cleared as part of the image storage upgrade — please re-add your vehicles and records

Version 1.2.5 — May 2026

Vehicle

  • Fix: VIN validation errors now appear directly below each field — the VIN field shows if the code is too short or unrecognised, and the confirmation field shows if the values don't match

Version 1.2.4 — May 2026

Fuel & Maintenance

  • Fix: quantity, unit-price, and odometer fields now start empty instead of showing 0 when you open a form
  • Improved placeholder hints — the odometer field now suggests the next expected mileage, and the maintenance station field shows an example value

Version 1.2.2 — May 2026

Fuel & Maintenance

  • Fix: typing 29,39 in quantity or price fields now correctly saves as 29.39 — comma decimal separator on European iOS keyboards is fully supported
  • Fix: odometer field now works correctly on iOS — the mileage input no longer interferes with native keyboard behaviour

Version 1.2.1 — May 2026

Fuel & Maintenance

  • Fix: entering a quantity like 1,02 now correctly saves as 1.02 — comma decimal separator is now accepted on all devices

Version 1.2.0 — May 2026

Sign-in & Sign-up

  • You now sign in and register with a username (4–32 characters, letters, numbers, _ or -) instead of an email address
  • Sign-up now shows inline error messages as you type — for username format, password rules, and confirmation mismatch
  • Fix: typing your username in mixed or upper case now correctly signs you in regardless of how you registered

Fuel & Maintenance

  • Forms simplified — the NIP (VAT ID) field removed; fields are now labelled Station and Name
  • Receipt scanning (OCR) removed — all fields are entered manually

Sign-up

UI

  • Sign-in buttons now clearly read LOG IN and JOIN NOW

Version 1.1.0 — May 2026

Sign-up

  • Password requirements are now shown on the sign-up form so you know what's needed before you submit

Under the Hood

  • VIN decoding no longer relies on an external service — make, model year, and brand logo are decoded instantly from the VIN itself
  • All vehicles added during the alpha stage have been cleared so everyone starts fresh

Version 1.0.5 — May 2026

Mobile Improvements

  • Fixed the page zooming in when tapping on email or password fields on iOS — inputs now use the correct font size to prevent auto-zoom
  • Sign-in and sign-up forms now align to the top of the screen — no more large empty gap above the form on smaller devices

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed a build error introduced in the sign-up flow that would have prevented deployment

Version 1.0.3 — May 2026

Mobile Improvements

  • Fixed empty scrollable space below the page — the app now correctly fits the screen including the browser address bar
  • Fixed the footer overlapping the sign-up form on smaller screens — it now always appears below the form
  • Fixed a background color mismatch that caused a brief color flash when navigating between pages
  • Toolbar is now always visible while scrolling on mobile

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed an issue where a failed sign-up could leave a partial account that blocked future registration with the same email — sign-up is now all-or-nothing
  • Fixed visiting vaultvin.app directly (without a path) not redirecting to the dashboard after sign-in

Version 1.0.2 — May 2026

Now Available at vaultvin.app

  • VaultVin has its own home — visit vaultvin.app from any browser; your connection is always private and secure

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed a glitch where the "new version" dot could appear on first load even when there was nothing new

Version 1.0.1 — May 2026

New Version Notifications

  • A new info icon next to the app name and the version link in the footer now light up blue when a new version has been released — so you always know when something changed
  • Clicking either one opens this page and marks the version as seen

Vehicle Onboarding

  • Added an alpha stage notice on the New Vehicle screen — VIN decode requests are limited during the alpha period; if a server error occurs, adding a vehicle won't be possible until the monthly limit resets
