Product change summary

Shelf Companion v1.1.0 (live on the App Store and Google Play since 2026-07-06) brings two documented web features to the phone. Quantity-tracked assets now render in the app (quantity pill on the list, a per-status breakdown card on detail, per-holder custody rows) and you can assign or release exact units of a pool from the floor. Separately, admins and owners can now create a tag inline from the mobile tag picker while adding or editing an asset, instead of switching to the web app first.

Content changes

Content enhancements

• content/knowledge-base/quantity-tracked-assets-and-consumables.mdx — new "On the mobile app" section documenting the quantity pill, the per-status breakdown card, per-holder rows, and mobile assign/release of units. updated → 2026-07-07.
• content/knowledge-base/shelf-ios-companion-getting-started.mdx — expanded the Custody Handoffs section with quantity-tracked custody by portion (assign N / release N, per-holder rows). updated → 2026-07-07.
• content/knowledge-base/what-is-a-tag-in-shelf-and-what-can-they-be-used-for.mdx — new "Creating Tags on Mobile" section (admins/owners create tags inline in Companion; self-service members can't). updated → 2026-07-07.

New content

• content/updates/companion-quantity-custody-and-tag-creation.mdx — changelog entry for the v1.1.0 additions, links to the companion getting-started guide.

Review notes

• Both features are live in the shipped store build (v1.1.0, verified against COMPANION-RELEASE-STATUS.md and the Apple/Play listings), so the docs describe capabilities users actually have today.
• The deep-link cold-start fix in #2686 is an invisible correctness fix — the existing "Opening Shelf Links in the App" section already documents the capability, so no copy change was needed there.
• No mobile screenshots added: the media pipeline captures app.shelf.nu (web) screens, not native mobile UI. Mobile screenshots for these sections would need a manual device capture — flagging for later, not blocking.

Impact scope

• End users affected: field/warehouse staff using Companion who manage consumables by quantity, and admins/owners who tag assets on the go.
• Prospects affected: buyers evaluating mobile capability for consumables/quantity tracking.
