What's New in Chewsy
1.3
August 12, 2026
New in 1.3: - Search anywhere: the map now has a Search This Area button. Pan to a neighborhood, tap it, and add whatever looks good straight to your list. - Filters everywhere: narrow by price, cuisine, and open now on every screen where you look for places, not just when you're planning a night out. - Better matches: asking for a cuisine and a price together used to quietly come back empty. Now it finds what you actually asked for, with real matches at the top. - No more dead ends: searching for a place we can't find now offers to show you what's actually nearby instead of telling you to keep typing. - Fixed a bug where results on the destination map would flash and disappear.
