Kitchen Display System - Food Runner Fulfillment

Food Runner Fulfillment is a new KDS feature launching on August 27, 2025 that enables item-level tracking at expo stations. It allows food runners to mark individual items on a ticket as delivered, instead of having to wait to close out an entire ticket, so everyone knows what has—and hasn't—been served.

This helps to provide clarity, better guest experiences, and overall peace of mind—especially during the chaos of busy rushes. Runner fulfillment is a critical enhancement for multi-course restaurants, family-style or shared plates concepts (such as tapas, hot pot, sushi, and dim sum), and many other business types.

For more information about enabling this feature, see Food Runner Fulfillment on KDS in Support Center.

Branded Mobile App - Customizable Fonts, Colors, and Icons

You now have more control over the look and feel of your Branded Mobile App. Instead of using the same default icons as every other app, you can choose custom icons for your navigation bar directly in the app editor. Select from a variety of styles and weights to match your brand and create a more personalized, polished experience for your guests. You can also now customize your Branded Mobile App’s fonts and colors right inside the app editor. Instantly preview changes, keep your website branding, or create an app-specific style that stands out.

Learn more about how to get started with the Branded Mobile App on the Support Center.

Report on sizes, pre-modifiers, modifiers, and special requests
Filter by sales category, day of week, revenue center, and more
Enhanced search capabilities

In September 2025, all customers will be moved over to the new Product Mix Report. Ready to access it now? You can access the new Product Mix anytime using the banner at the top of your Product Mix Report page. The current (legacy) Product Mix Report will remain available through the end of 2025.

Menus - Legacy Modifier Group Workflow

On the classic menu group and menu item details pages, the behavior of the table in Modifier Groups has changed. To prevent you from creating a modifier group that has no modifiers, which causes problems for third-party ordering integrations, selecting Add now takes you to the modifier group details page. Bulk Add New Modifier Groups has been removed for the same reason. This change will go live on August 26, 2025 for all Toast POS users.

Learn more about adding Modifier Groups and Modifiers with this Support Center article.

Test Kitchen - POS Translation (Spanish + Chinese)

With this Instant Access beta, the POS experience will now be available in Spanish and Chinese in addition to English. You will have the ability to click on the language selector at the top right of the screen, which will prompt a pop-up menu where the language options will be available.

Limitations:

The ToastWeb experience will not be translated by toggling the language on the POS.
The receipts will still appear in English, even if a different language is selected.

The POS Translations feature is intended for staff use only and must be used exclusively on non-guest-facing terminals. This means:

Translated content should never be visible to guests.
The feature cannot be used on any terminal that faces the customer or is positioned for customer interaction.

By enabling this feature, you acknowledge that you will use it in accordance with these guidelines.

I have two separate locations within different restaurants that would like to try the POS translation, but clicking on the link comes back with 404 not found.

How can we get access to this beta?

Re: August 2025 Product Updates- US

rich_ethos — Thu, 28 Aug 2025 15:00:54 GMT

When I click on that link, I get this:

I logged into different locations with different brands, same thing.

Your account might not have store permissions, can you try with another account or main account holder?

Re: August 2025 Product Updates- US

rich_ethos — Thu, 28 Aug 2025 15:44:48 GMT

I am the main account holder for all the locations, and have signed up for other betas with no issue. Odd.

rcmck — Thu, 28 Aug 2025 15:47:17 GMT

Very odd, that link works fine for me. Can you get to the test kitchen at least https://www.toasttab.com/customers/shop/test-kitchen then find the beta from there.

Some show up, but not the translation:

Hey there! I want to help with this — can you shoot an email to communityupdates@toasttab.com so we can look into it? Thank you!

Honestly, how do we update? I’d like to see the improvements on branded mobile app.

Re: August 2025 Product Updates- US

JerusalemMarket — Fri, 29 Aug 2025 00:11:40 GMT

You all need to add a "Sold Out for the Day" Option

Where you can mark something sold out and it automatically adds itself back in stock on the start of next business day

This would be very helpful to for example BBQ Restaurants or anything that has a daily limited item like Prime Rib, Shawerma, etc

This would eliminate the need for opening crew to go back and double check the 86s from previous service

Thanks!

I figured out what is going on - we are already in the beta. I thought this was translating the menu items themselves, not just the KDS/terminal language. Once Toast can translate our menu items, then I'll get excited!
