A Faster, Smarter Fleet Management Experience Built for iOS 26

We’re excited to announce the launch of the Katsana iOS App 3.0 Beta Program. We’re now inviting interested users of Katsana to join our beta program and be among the first to experience the next generation of Katsana mobile apps.

This is not just an update. Katsana iOS app version 3.0 (Codename COSMO) has been fully re-engineered from the ground up for iOS 26, adopting the latest platform design language, performance enhancements, and system capabilities to deliver a smoother, more intuitive fleet management experience.

v3 COSMO for iOS be the benchmark for the upcoming Android app re-design. Your participation in the Beta program enables you to:

  • Get early access to v3 COSMO for iOS

  • Help shape the final release with your feedback

  • Experience the latest fleet management features before anyone else

  • Test & interact with new UI/UX features, reports, live statuses and other options

  • Identify potential problems, bugs or suggest improvements before the final release

Your real-world usage helps us fine-tune performance, app stability/usability, and features that matter most to fleet operators.

New Features in Katsana iOS v3.0 COSMO

1. 🚀 Built for Performance

The new app architecture is designed to be significantly faster and more responsive, especially for fleets with a large number of vehicles. Navigation feels smoother, data loads quicker, and real-time updates are handled more efficiently.

As a beta tester of the new app, you will be tasked to test the performance and intuitiveness of the app interface using real data from your fleet of vehicles.

2. 🧭 Redesigned Fleet & Vehicle Selector

Managing multiple fleets and vehicles is now easier than ever.

  • Cleaner, more intuitive layout

  • Faster switching between fleets and vehicles

  • Designed to reduce taps and cognitive load

Whether you manage 5 vehicles or 500, finding what you need takes less effort.

As a beta tester, we would like to know your opinion and feedback on the new Fleet/Vehicle selector panel.

3. 📊 New Info Panel for Quick Insights

We’ve introduced a new information panel that gives you quick access to critical data at a glance, including:

  • Key sensor data

  • Vehicle status indicators

  • Operational insights without navigating multiple screens

This new panel is designed to provide quick glanceable information of important data, hence making daily fleet checks faster and more actionable.
