What if there was one place you could see the location of every tool, asset, and piece of equipment your team relies on?
Now there is. With the latest ToolWatch release, we’re introducing Universal Mapping — a smarter, faster way to know exactly what you have, where it is, and when it was last scanned.
The Universal Map makes location data clear, actionable, and easy to navigate. Whether you’re in the field or in the warehouse, you’ll always have an accurate picture of where your tools and equipment are.
Here’s what’s new in this release:
Updated icons with an in-app legend make it crystal clear what each symbol means — no guesswork required.
Quickly narrow your view with smart filters on the left-hand menu. Whether you’re looking for stock items, non-stock items, or scan-tracked assets, filters make it simple.
Scan Source Visibility
Every item now displays how it was last scanned: GPS, BLE, or Barcode. (GPS and BLE require the Wireless Tracking add-on.)
Time-Based Shading
Colored shading shows how fresh the last scan was:
At a glance, you’ll know how current your data is.
Select any item on the map to instantly open its details, including recent scans and quick links to related pages.
Hover on an icon to see fast, lightweight information without leaving the map view.
Getting items onto the map is automatic:
Icons tell you what type of scan was used, and clicking opens the item browser to confirm reporting or check tracker battery life. If you can’t find something, make sure it has an active tracker and that location sharing is enabled on the device.
The Universal Map is available for:
To try it out, just open Tracking from the left-hand navigation, select Map, and start exploring.
The new Universal Mapping update takes the complexity out of tracking. Instead of digging through lists or juggling spreadsheets, you get visual clarity, scan history, and direct access to item details — all in one place.
Smarter maps mean faster answers, so your crews can focus on the work that matters most.
