Less setup when a load comes in. A clearer picture of your plan. And a few small things that make the day go better.
Log a load without setting up every list first
Improved
Type a driver, crop, bin, or field directly when adding a scale ticket, or leave those details blank. Gross and tare weights are all you need to save a ticket; your saved lists are still there as suggestions.

Your plan and usage, at a glance
New
See your farm’s plan, remaining usage, and what comes next beside your chats and in Billing on the web, or in your account menu on your phone. Farms with a dated free beta see its countdown and a clear explanation when access pauses.
Shipped by AidanMobile
Find a field’s loads by the names you use
Improved
Ticket searches and totals recognize a field’s recorded aliases and linked John Deere name, helping bring its loads together. Ambiguous names stay separate instead of assigning a load to the wrong field.

Mobile update · October 26 · Mobile v0.1.6 · October 29
More field context, clearer chat progress, and fixes for dropped connections and interrupted answers. Map, field-history and upload updates arrive October 29; shared chat fixes were available October 26.
John Deere operations join your field history
New
For connected farms with access to John Deere data, field history brings seeding, applications, tillage, and harvest alongside your own records. See dates, products, rates, acres, and the source of each operation, with machine details where your access allows.

Bring your files together in one upload
Improved
Upload a ZIP of PDFs, images, and audio from chat or Files. AgAnswers recognizes the documents inside, shows their progress, and prepares them for your questions. You can also select a larger batch without splitting it into groups of ten.
Shipped by AidanMobile ·
See the work behind your answer
Improved
Longer questions now show the current step and elapsed time, so a busy assistant doesn’t look frozen. Steps using John Deere data carry its mark, making it easier to see where an answer is coming from.

Pick back up after a dropped connection
Fixed
If your connection drops while AgAnswers is working, chat tries to reconnect and recover the latest progress. If it can’t reconnect, you’ll see a clear message instead of an answer that looks finished or a spinner that never stops.

Find John Deere fields on the map
Fixed
Connected Deere fields appear in the map list before you search, even when your farm has no fields entered by hand. The map frames your farm or selected field, avoids duplicate linked outlines, and keeps your chosen view when data refreshes.
Shipped by AidanMobile ·
Keep every question in the conversation
Fixed
Send several messages while AgAnswers is working and it keeps track of the questions still awaiting an answer. A newer correction can still change the request, while separate questions are addressed together.
Shipped by AidanMobile
Fewer interruptions during a detailed answer
Fixed
Fixed two causes of answers stopping unexpectedly, including longer work with photos, maps, and reports. AgAnswers can keep using an image while the analysis continues.
See unread conversations and work waiting for your input, ask about connected John Deere data, and use more reliable iPhone dictation.
More reliable dictation on iPhone
Fixed
Fixed a recording-format problem that could prevent voice dictation from being transcribed on newer iPhones. Recordings now use a compatible format, with a recovery step for older recordings the transcription service can’t read.
Shipped by AidanMobile
Spot the conversations that need you
Improved
Unread and attention markers make it easier to find a reply you have not opened or a conversation waiting for your next step.
Shipped by AidanMobile
Ask more of your Operations Center data
New
For connected farms with the required access, AgAnswers can read Operations Center data on demand, including field-operation files and map points. It can analyze that data without asking you to export each file by hand.
Less switching between chat modes to ask about your farm.
Ask from the chat you are already in
Improved
AgAnswers can read the records your role allows without making you switch chat modes. New records still use the chat’s privacy setting, and the assistant asks before saving information from a more private record into a less private chat.
Read an answer, dictate a follow-up, or finish a prescription from your phone.
Read without the conversation jumping
Improved
Your sent message stays in view while the answer grows beneath it. Scrolling, opening the keyboard, and loading cards work together more smoothly; past conversations show a loading state instead of a blank panel.
Shipped by AidanMobile
Know your voice message is on its way
Improved
After releasing the microphone, chat opens with a Transcribing message that becomes your text. If transcription fails, a clear notice explains what happened.
Shipped by AidanMobile
Readable text after changing iPhone text size
Fixed
Changing iOS text size while the app is open now refreshes the layout instead of leaving clipped or overlapping text. You stay on the same screen; an open panel may close as the layout refreshes.
Shipped by AidanMobile
Create and send a reviewed prescription from your phone
New
Owners can create the file for the exact prescription shown on the card, then send it to a connected John Deere Operations Center and check its import status. Dates and rates can still be changed through chat.
Start in chat, switch Home sections by name, and record a hands-free voice message.
Get to the job with fewer taps
Improved
The phone app starts in chat unless you have chosen another launch screen. Home uses labeled tabs for each section, and a task checkbox marks work done in one tap. Home layout options live in Settings.
Shipped by AndrewMobile
Tap to talk hands-free
New
Tap the dock microphone to keep recording, then choose Send or Cancel. You can still hold to talk and release to send.
Shipped by AndrewMobile
Your preferences survive a restart
Fixed
Fixed a problem that could reset Home arrangements, pinned items, theme, and other preferences after force-quitting the app.
A repair to image recognition for new uploads and scans.
A fix for failed image and ticket scans
Fixed
Fixed a problem that could stop AgAnswers from reading uploaded images and scanning scale tickets. New scans can be processed again; an earlier failed upload may still need to be retried.
Follow prescription progress and review the live summary while making changes through chat.
Follow a prescription from analysis to file
New
Farm owners can ask for a prescription using a field they can access, then follow its progress in chat. The card shows available imagery dates, clear coverage, and the draft’s zones and rates before you confirm a downloadable file. On the phone, the live summary keeps you informed while you make changes through chat.
Repeated uploads reuse existing records, and removing a chat attachment leaves shared files intact.
Reuse a file you have already uploaded
Improved
Repeated uploads can reuse the existing document instead of creating another library record. Removing a chat attachment leaves shared files intact, and a deleted file’s name remains visible in old messages.
Keep tickets moving, find your records, and carry the conversation with you.
Keep logging loads when signal drops
New
Save scale tickets on your phone when you are offline, see which are waiting to sync, and send them when the connection returns. Queued tickets stay on the device through a restart.
Shipped by AndrewMobile
Start a ticket with a photo
New
Take or choose a ticket photo to fill the entry form. Review the readings and any marked uncertainties before saving; photos containing several tickets can be reviewed one load at a time.
Shipped by AidanMobile
Search your farm and its files
New
Search from the phone for farm records and document content, with results grouped by type. Open the matching record or file from the result. Search requires a connection.
Shipped by AidanMobile
Read the original, wherever you are
New
Browse documents, switch between the original and what AgAnswers read, and open images, PDFs, and tables. Field and equipment files show thumbnails with zoom, sharing, and a way to ask about the file.
Shipped by AidanMobile
See the work, or listen to the answer
Improved
Phone chat shows progress while AgAnswers works. Listen to spoken replies with playback controls, and dictate with farm names available to help recognition.
Shipped by AidanMobile
Move around the app more reliably
Fixed
Links from chat open the records they name, and the dock gives you a way home and into other sections. Fixes keep Android chat and file panels open when you tap blank space and prevent closing chat from leaving Send disabled.
