Update: Pre Start Plus

With our most recent update to Pre Start Plus, we’ve improved the experience on both iOS and Android with a number of bug fixes and performance upgrades.

It also ensures that Pre Start Plus works seamlessly with the latest Supply Machine functionality introduced to Plant Assessor.

Why it matters

We’ve ensured the Pre Start Plus app works seamlessly with the newest supply feature recently added to Plant Assessor.

You’ll be able to see which machines have been supplied, and by who, when selecting them in the app. And when you select a machine, the site field only shows sites that the machine is eligible for – so you can’t go wrong.

Third party machines can be found by filtering the supplier’s company name, and the company name appears at the top of the machine card for easy reference.

To help make sure you don’t perform a pre-start on the wrong machine, a supplied machine must be assigned to a site. You’ll get a handy notification if it isn’t, and you can easily assign it to the appropriate site.

This update also adds a bundle of general improvements and fixes to the app. This helps make the app work faster, handle data more efficiently, and improves reliability, so it’s ready to go when you are.

How do I get it?

Check you’re not already on the latest version of PSP. That’s:

• v1.0.22 (253) on Android devices
• v1.0.22 (254) on Apple devices

If you’re not, then simply update your Pre Start Plus app from the iOS App Store or on Google Play, depending on whether you’re using an iOS or Android device.

Once updated, simply login and continue to use the app as normal.

If you’re planning on using the app when offline, or in low-coverage areas, ensure you’re logged into the app before-hand.
