AI featuresAI Voice Data Entry: Record your voice in the mobile app (iOS), and AI will transcribe it and automatically fill in the relevant fields of a record.
AI Voice Data Entry is now available in the kintone mobile app for iOS. Record yourself saying what you want to enter in a record, and AI works out which fields the information belongs in and reshapes it to fit the format of each one. Fill out records just by speaking naturally, without having to select and fill in fields one by one.
You can use this feature to record a sales meeting report while out of the office, or log inspection results in the field — no need to select and fill in fields one by one.
Now it's easier to quickly record information, whether you're working on-site or on the go.
SearchAll-contents search can now include or exclude specific apps and spaces
In the filter section for all-contents search, you can now include or exclude specific apps and spaces from your search. For example, you can search only the apps and spaces you use for work to find all the information you need about a project. If one app is returning too many results and you know the information you’re looking for isn’t there, you can simply exclude it from your search.
To add conditions, click "Filter by app or space" in the "Filter" section of the all-contents search screen.
You can add multiple apps and spaces and choose whether to include or exclude them from your search.
App managementMore filter conditions are now available for the app list on the "App management" screen
We've added 11 new filter conditions to the app list on the "App management" screen. You can now filter apps by "API tokens", "Webhooks", "App group", "Created by", and more. For example, you can filter for apps with API tokens or webhooks configured to check their external integrations, or filter by a specific app group or creator to find apps that need to be reviewed.
11 new columns from the app list can now be used as filter conditions.
The following filter conditions were added in the September 2026 update:
ID / App group / Fields / API requests per day / API tokens / Webhooks / Attachments / Guest users with access / Creator / Created date and time / Last updated by
PlatformFront-end infrastructure renewed for the "App settings" screen
To speed up product improvements going forward, the kintone development team is progressively renewing the front-end technology infrastructure that's been in use since kintone first launched, screen by screen. This time, the front-end infrastructure has been renewed for the main "App settings" screen. Its layout and components have been updated, including the "Form", "Views", "Graphs", and "App settings" tabs.

Process analysisUse your process history to visualize how long records stay in each status
Process analysis is an in-development feature that lets you see how long it took for each status to change in apps that have process management enabled. This helps you identify and understand bottlenecks in your app workflows.
You can specify the fields to use for grouping and which records to include in the analysis, allowing you to view your workflows from different perspectives. You can also specify the analysis period, so you can focus on a specific time frame, such as the period immediately after implementing a process improvement. We plan to continue adding features to help you analyze your workflows in greater depth.
- You can open the "Process analysis" screen by clicking "Analyze process" in the "Options" menu on the "View" screen.
- Click "Analysis settings" and specify the fields to group by, the record filtering conditions, and the period to analyze.
- Check how much time your records spent in each status.
