Offline Badge Scanning with On-Device AI
- Scan a badge with no signal and your iPhone reads it on the spot (iPhones with Apple Intelligence)
- Name, company, title, email, and phone fill in immediately, ready to review and save
- Back online, BoothIQ re-reads the badge photo with a more powerful AI and corrects anything the phone guessed
- Anything you type or fix by hand is always kept
- Phones without Apple Intelligence keep the current flow: the photo saves offline and is read when you reconnect
Smoother Offline Saving
- Photo-only leads now save reliably when you have no signal
- One clear confirmation when a lead saves offline
- If a save fails, the app tells you so you can try again
Fixes
- Lead exports now show capture times in your timezone
4.28 Aug 26
Offline Mode That Survives a Restart
- Open the app with no signal and your events, lead form, and workspace are already there
- Capture leads in a dead zone, even right after a phone or app restart
- Everything saves on your phone and syncs the moment you are back online
Salesforce Campaign Statuses on the Capture Form
- Events linked to a Salesforce campaign now show that campaign's member statuses on the lead form
- Pick the right status as you save the lead: it lands in Salesforce already set
- Campaign reporting stays accurate with no cleanup after the show
Richer CRM Records
- Country, state, and phone from badge scans and enrichment now sync to your CRM's standard fields
4.27 Aug 11
Create Custom Fields on Your Phone
- Build your own lead form fields from the Team page: no laptop needed
- Eight field types: text, long text, number, phone, yes/no, date, dropdown, and multi-select
- Dropdown and multi-select choices are a simple comma-separated list
- Clear, instant feedback if a field name or choice list is missing
- Add fields BoothIQ fills for you from badge scans and enrichment with one tap
- Plain labels tell you these fields stay in BoothIQ and CSV exports; they never sync to a CRM
4.26 Aug 6
Custom Fields, In Plain Language
- Field types now read the way reps experience them: "Yes / No," "Dropdown," "Long text," instead of database jargon
- Every custom field shows a logo for the system it lives in: HubSpot, Salesforce, or BoothIQ
- Fields deleted on the CRM side now say so clearly: "Deleted in HubSpot. Not syncing."
- Added support for BoothIQ's own custom fields on the lead form, rolling out to teams now

Voice notes that cannot be lost
Your voice note is now safe no matter what the show floor throws at you:
- A note survives the app being killed. The next launch saves everything captured up to the cut and tells you.
- Phone calls and Siri no longer eat a note. The app saves what you said and lets you know.
- Incoming call banners no longer interrupt a live note.
- If a save fails, the note is kept and recovered the next time the app opens.
- Only one note records at a time, with a clear message if another is still going.
- Leave a lead mid-note and come back: the timer picks up where it left off.
- If microphone access is off, the app points you to Settings to turn it on.
Voice notes on the capture screen
- The mic button sits right between Scan Badge and Save Lead: tap to record, tap again to save.
- Record multiple notes per lead, with a count on the button.
- Full offline support: notes save on your phone and sync when you reconnect.
Fixes
- The upgrade screen shows the correct Team plan price.
- Restored the View in HubSpot and Salesforce links on the lead page.
- Action items load correctly for every lead.
