What's New in ClearCost
1.2.1
August 12, 2026
Bill scanning is now reachable. It is in Coverage, under Quick Links — photograph an itemized bill, an EOB or a Good Faith Estimate and we'll pull out the line items. The feature was built and described here, but nothing in the app opened it. That's fixed. Also in this version: - VoiceOver users can now set a ZIP code. The location sheet read as a single run-on label with nothing to tap, which meant the whole "find care near me" flow was unreachable with VoiceOver on. - The sample bills on the scan screen are individually named, so a screen reader says which one it's about to open.
