eMAR Updates - July 2026

eMAR App Update (v2.7.0) – 13 July 2026.

This release includes one new improvement for stopped PRN medications, alongside several bug fixes to improve the accuracy, reliability and performance of the app.

New Feature

• Clearer stopped PRN medications: When a PRN medication is stopped, a “Stopped” label will now appear immediately in the app, making its current status clearer to care staff.

Bug Fixes and Reliability Improvements

• More accurate “Last taken” information: Fixes an issue where the “Last taken” label could disappear or show an incorrect time, helping staff make safe and informed decisions before administering medication.
• More reliable offline PRN records: Fixes an issue that could affect PRN administration records when multiple devices were being used offline. Records will now sync correctly when devices reconnect.
• More reliable PRN follow-up records: Fixes an issue that could cause some PRN follow-up information to be linked incorrectly. Follow-up records will now appear against the correct medication task.
• Improved QR code scanning: Fixes issues that could prevent the QR scanner from opening or working correctly, including after rotating a device between portrait and landscape.
• Correct medication due times: Fixes an issue where an incorrect due time could sometimes be shown after moving to the next medication round while using a tablet in portrait mode.
• Reliable access after inactivity: Fixes an issue where a black screen could appear when reopening the app after being automatically logged out due to inactivity.
• Improved app performance: Improves responsiveness for homes with larger amounts of data, reducing the likelihood of the app freezing or displaying an “App Not Responding” message.
• Other improvements: Includes additional bug fixes and stability improvements across medication administration workflows.
