Major Release Highlights
Smarter Investigations with Enhanced Journey Refinement
Find the right person or vehicle faster by narrowing results after your initial search.
Journey Paths now support an iterative refinement workflow. After running an initial journey search, you can select the most relevant matches from the results and click Search Again with Selected to re-run the search with those selections, significantly improving accuracy and reducing noise in complex, multi-camera environments.
This is especially valuable for busy sites where initial results may include similar-looking individuals or vehicles. Rather than starting over or manually filtering, you can guide the system toward the correct match in fewer steps, making cross-camera tracking faster and more reliable.
Redesigned Walls Experience
A cleaner, more capable layout for monitoring what matters.
We're rolling out a redesigned experience for Walls in the Coram web app. The updated design introduces drag-and-drop tile management, tile switching, and better grouping of controls for faster discoverability and easier access to the features that matter.
A new auto-layout feature automatically optimizes camera sizing to minimize black bars and letterboxing, so you see more of the feed and less black space.
You can also now archive all camera feeds within a Wall in a single action, preserving footage beyond your standard retention window for later review. This update is being rolled out progressively, with Kiosk Wall updates to follow shortly.
Reverse Footage Playback
Step backward through footage for faster forensic review.
You can now watch video in reverse when viewing recorded clips, making it easier to trace events backward from a known moment. Whether you're tracking someone's path back to an entry point or reviewing the lead-up to an incident, reverse playback removes the need to repeatedly scrub forward and reposition. Reverse playback supports all forward playback speeds and is available across the Coram web app.
More Release Highlights
Alert Pausing
You can now temporarily pause individual alerts, and resume them when you're ready. This is ideal during planned maintenance, construction, or any scheduled activity that would otherwise generate noise. Paused alerts stop generating notifications until reactivated, keeping your feed focused on real events.
"Like" and "Dislike" Alert Feedback
Alerts now include a simple feedback mechanism. You can mark an alert as useful or not useful directly from the alert view, on both web and mobile. This feedback is used to improve detection quality over time by informing how Coram's models are trained and refined.
CSV Import for EMS Reunification
Schools and organizations that don't use Clever can now import student and guardian data for EMS Reunification via CSV upload. This provides the same structured emergency accounting workflow, with automatic parent notifications and status tracking, without requiring a Clever integration.
Network Speed Test in Settings
A new speed test tool in Settings lets you measure connectivity between your network and Coram's servers. This helps teams quickly diagnose streaming or upload issues and verify that bandwidth meets recommended thresholds, without leaving the Coram interface. The speed test works reliably even behind strict firewalls and is available to all users with device access.
Improved Face Recognition
Face recognition accuracy has been further improved this month, building on the gains shipped in January. The result is even fewer false matches and more reliable identification, especially in challenging conditions.
Improved Alert Summary UI
The alert summary view has been refined for better readability, making it easier to scan and interpret alert context at a glance.
Real-Time Alert Updates
The Alerts feed and Access Control alerts pages now update in real time as new events arrive. Previously, new alerts required a page refresh to appear. Now, events surface within seconds, keeping the feed current during active monitoring without any manual intervention.
Mobile Improvements
Smart Walls on mobile: Smart Walls are now supported in the mobile app, including Android-specific fixes for a consistent experience across platforms.
Access Control Alerts on mobile: All Access Control alert types are now available in the mobile app, matching the full web experience.
Haptic feedback for door unlock: Unlocking a door from the mobile app now provides tactile confirmation at each stage, with vibration feedback when the request is sent and again when the door successfully unlocks.
Pinch-to-zoom on Timeline video: More granular zoom control on Timeline video playback for closer inspection of footage on mobile devices.
Screen stays awake during video playback: The screen no longer dims or locks while video is actively playing, preventing interruptions during monitoring.
Last visited tab preserved: Reopening the app returns you to the tab you were last using, reducing navigation friction.
Decoupled notification permissions: Standard push notifications and Critical Alerts can now be enabled independently on both iOS and Android, so you can choose the notification level you're comfortable with.
Copy camera details to clipboard: In the Devices tab, you can now tap any camera detail or stat to copy it directly to your clipboard for quick sharing or documentation.
UI consistency and polish: Multiple refinements across screens for a more unified look and feel, including consistent search bars and headers, updated confirmation modals, share sheets, PTZ controls, and layout spacing.
Improved error handling: Clearer error screens across navigation flows, with a logout option now available on the unreachable screen.
Notification toast animations: In-app notifications now include smooth animations for a more polished alert experience.
More Improvements
Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) toggle for Coram cameras You can now enable or disable WDR mode directly from camera settings, giving you more control over image quality in high-contrast lighting conditions.
Reduced NVR fan noise under partial load CP-X-1 and CP-Y-1 appliances now run quieter when not at full capacity, reducing ambient noise in quieter environments like schools, offices, and retail spaces.
Expanded audio support for non-ONVIF cameras More cameras now support audio capture in Coram, even those without standard ONVIF audio profiles, broadening coverage across mixed-vendor deployments.
Video streaming stability improvements Ongoing refinements to streaming reliability, including targeted fixes for Safari and iOS playback issues, for more consistent video across all browsers and devices.
