Quality tiers Every shop now shows a named tier: Hidden gem, Noteworthy, Solid, Excellent, or Exceptional. The numeric score is still there, but the tier tells you what it means at a glance. Map pins are colored by tier so you can spot quality without tapping. Tap the filter icon to reveal tier pills that double as a legend and a filter. Tap a tier to set your minimum. More submissions reach curators Previously, shops scoring below 5.0 were silently rejected. Now every non-disqualified submission goes to the curator queue. A human decides, not the math. If your submission was blocked before, try again. Menu photo required Submissions now require a menu photo alongside the exterior shot. Menus show bean origins, brew methods, and roaster names, giving curators better evidence to make fair calls. Interior photo is still optional. Rejection details If a curator rejects your submission, you now see the rejection category and any note they left. Previously this was a silent X with no explanation. Unread rejections badge A badge dot appears on the Profile tab when a submission has been rejected since you last checked. No push notifications needed. Curator queue improvements Curators now see all submission photos in a carousel, every rubric answer with the question text, and the submitter's optional note. Makes review faster and fairer. Bug fixes - Shops that roast in-house were incorrectly tagged as "rotating roasters." Fixed. - Extra photos in the submission grid were squished. Fixed. - The rejection reason chevron on Profile was not tappable. Fixed.
