Roadmap

Android joins the Standard roadmap

Standard is planned to add a local Android companion, so more work can happen straight on the shop floor.

Quick view

Fast checks

Look up products

Quick stock checks without walking back to the main Windows station every time.

Barcode help

Scan and act

Barcode scanning is planned to support faster lookup and product work.

Invoice flow

Phone to StockMate

Take invoice photos, send them locally, review OCR output, and build deliveries.

  1. 1 Windows stays central The Windows app remains the main local StockMate system.
  2. 2 Android acts as a companion The phone helps with shop-floor tasks over the same local network.

What the Android companion is meant to help with

The idea is not “turn everything into a phone app.” The idea is to make the phone useful where it makes real sense.

  • Product lookup and quick stock checks.
  • Barcode scanning.
  • Mobile product creation and editing.
  • Invoice photo capture and upload.
  • OCR-assisted invoice review.
  • Creating deliveries from reviewed invoice data.

What it is not

This stage is not planned as a cloud-first system. It is a secure local companion, not a remote access app in disguise.

Why later, not now

Mobile features are only worth adding when the core stock logic is solid. So yes, Android is important. No, it does not get to cut the queue.

This is a roadmap update, not a release announcement. Details can still change as the product evolves.
