Introducing version 3.0 of the Retail POS app! Here's what we improved in its all-new design.
New navigation
Navigating the Retail POS app is made easy with the navigation bar at the bottom of the screen. The navigation bar provides quick access to three tabs, each consisting of key features to help cashiers and managers accomplish their tasks faster.
– Profile screen: Complete your everyday point of sale responsibilities quickly and easily. Start new sales, open or close registers, clock in and out, and more. On this screen, you can also see at a glance whether or not your iPad is connected to your Wi-Fi network and devices.
– Sales screen: Get a full history of all your sales in one place. You can search and filter the list by specific sale details (e.g. customer name, sale number, shop, register and sale status) or simply scan a receipt. Quickly find transactions to start refunds and exchanges or print or email receipts.
– Manager screen: Use any of the additional features of the web interface directly on your iPad. With its mobile-friendly menus, you can easily check your inventory, analyze reports and configure settings on the go.
Dynamic sale in progress bar
– With the new “Sale in progress” bar, you can easily jump back to a sale if you need to navigate away, for example, to review a past sale on the Sales screen while working on a new one.
Darker styling
– We brought the dark styling from Home in the web interface to the Retail POS app. Important action buttons are bigger and bluer to help cashiers quickly navigate around the app and accomplish tasks.
Accessible support and updates
– When setting up your hardware, you can now tap Learn more to follow along with the step-by-step instructions in the Help Center. From there, you can also explore the articles and videos for information on any Retail POS topic.
– Still need assistance? Tap Support on the Profile screen. There, you can find the many ways to contact our Retail Support team. You’ll also find information about your account, app version, iOS version and iPad model that will help our Retail Support team help you more efficiently.
– Have you updated your app version and missed the “What’s new” screen? Tap Support on the Profile and What’s new to stay in the loop.
– Let us know what you think about the Retail POS app by tapping Support > Rate us on the App Store.

2.21.1
2014-05-20
Bug Fixes
Here’s what you might’ve missed in 2.21:
New Features
* Device-based register selection: Rather than logging you into the shop and the register you were in last, the Retail POS app now assigns a shop and register to the iPad you’re using. For accounts with multiple shops, registers, iPads, and employees, making the register selection device-based instead of employee-based will ensure that sales are processed in the correct shop and register every single day.
* Current shop and register: Now that the Retail POS app has moved towards a device-based register selection, the current shop and register your iPad is assigned to are clearly displayed at the top of the Lock screen.
* Initial register selection: When you download Retail POS or update the app to version 2.21, you’ll need to sign in and select the shop and register you want to assign to your iPad. To change your selections after this initial sign-in, you’ll now need to go to Manage Registers and explicitly select the shop and register you want to assign to your iPad. By centralizing where you can select a register in one area of POS mode, your iPad will remain on the correct register when different employees sign in or enter their PINs.
* Limit to shop permission: If your iPad is assigned to a register in a shop you don’t have access to, the Limit To Shop permission in your employee setup is now respected when you try signing in or enter your PIN. Previously, Retail POS would let you into the account and would change the iPad’s shop and register in the process. Now, you’ll need to ask your manager to either change your Limit To Shop setting to the current shop or ask them to change the current register to one that’s in the shop you’re limited to.
* 11-inch and 12.9-inch iPad Pros: Apple’s new 11-inch and 12.9-inch iPad Pros are now fully supported and their Retail POS experience is optimized for your full-screen enjoyment.
* Lightspeed Payments and Vantiv triPOS: For our merchants that have integrated their payment processing with Lightspeed Payments and Vantiv triPOS, you can now initiate manual card payments from within Retail POS rather than pressing the Cancel button on your terminal. This is true for all three of our supported terminals.
* Tyro: For our merchants in Australia, we’re excited to announce that you can now process integrated payments and refunds with Tyro in Retail POS! This includes partial payments and refunds. Both the Yomani and Yoximo payment terminals are now supported and Tyro’s transaction log is available in your Device Settings.
Enhancement
* Opening counts: When entering your opening count, the new intuitive layout and keyboard allow you to quickly enter your individual cash denominations and move on to the next one by simply tapping Next. Because Retail POS now requires you to assign a register to your iPad to access your account, you also have the option to select a register without entering an opening count. This allows you to navigate around your account as you please and only enter your opening count once you’re ready to start making sales.
* Closing counts: Closing counts have also been completely redesigned. By rearranging the Expected, Difference and Counted fields, counting the different cash denominations in your till is now especially intuitive. For non-cash payment types, their Counted fields are now prefilled to match their Expected fields. We thought we’d save you the trouble of entering them manually as they typically match more often than not.
