What’s new in Lightspeed Retail’s app version 2.12?

After months of hard work and long hours, we are happy to finally reveal our app’s new summer body! Along with these user interface improvements, we’ve delved beyond the superficial to bring you new features and bug fixes you can profoundly benefit from:

New features

  • The Sales History screen can now be filtered by shop (click here for more information).
