Buddy 1.9.1
Here's what's new in DI Buddy version 1.9.1.
DI Buddy version 1.9.1 will be rolled out automatically starting Wednesday, November 11, 2026, after 10:00.
To receive the update automatically, devices must be running version 1.9.0 or later.
Important: Buddy version 1.9.0 will become mandatory with this release. If your company uses managed devices, please ensure that all devices are updated to version 1.9.0 to avoid any disruption.
GPS Coordinates for Proof of Delivery
In version 1.9.1, we are introducing the ability to capture and store GPS coordinates when confirming deliveries or pickups in Buddy.
This feature can be enabled individually for each company.
When a photo is taken as proof of delivery (POD), Buddy will store GPS Coordinates(latitude and longitude) along with the heading (the direction in degrees the camera was facing).
If no photo is taken, the GPS coordinates will be captured when the carrier confirms the delivery or pickup.
In the Customer page (Kundebildet), users will be able to open the recorded location directly in Google Street View, oriented in the same the direction as the photo was taken.
Coming later:
GPS coordinates will also become available in the new Route Status in DI Control, Workbench, and Flow, as well as through an API.
Blue Line returns to Buddy maps
After a long wait, we’re happy to announce that the blue line connecting modules on the map is finally back!
This makes it easier for carriers to navigate between modules when using the split map and delivery mode in Buddy.
