## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.12.1 — 2026-08-01

Behind-the-scenes: added crash reporting so we hear about problems before you have to tell us.

### 1.12.0 — 2026-07-29

What's New in 1.12

• Pick of the Pubs — green triangle on the radar for the best board of beers near you, with a card telling you why we picked it
• Radar legend chips are filters — Pick, Faves, @Risk, Ghosts, Unknown — tap to isolate
• 500+ ghost pubs (closed and demolished) built in — no download
• My Kind of Pub & My Kind of Beer — Hate→Love questionnaires with an analogue taste gauge
• Beer Alerts rebuilt — nearest tap shown in-app for every watched beer, push once it lands within 15 miles

### 1.11.0 — 2026-07-02

Radar
- New "undiscovered venues" layer — toggle under the radar reveals hollow amber rings for pubs Discover has found but PINtPOINT hasn't catalogued. 

Discover
- Untappd matcher restored. Every FSQ venue and every fresh area can now earn an Untappd match again.
- Trust chip merged — single teal Untappd via Google chip replaces two competing badges.
- FSQ venues can earn the trust chip for the first time (previously structurally unreachable).

World / map
- Auto-derived city clusters, 
- WORLD STATS from server-side per-country queries.

### 1.10.5 — 2026-06-07

Recommendations
  • "Why this pint?" chips on Best Pint Next — see exactly why a beer
    is matched to you (Hoppy match · Pale Ale profile · Fresh tap data ·
    Close by).
  • Fresh sightings outrank stale ones at the same venue.
  • Draft and cask preferred over bottle/can.
  Venues
  • Freshness pills next to venue names: Fresh · Yesterday · 3d ago ·
    Needs refresh.
  • Chain hotels (Premier Inn, Travelodge etc.) no longer pollute pub
    discovery.
  Sip or Skip
  • Beer-specific descriptors ("Pine, dry finish, citrus" instead of
    generic "aromatic hops").
  • Family-aware swipe axes — Stouts show roastiness, IPAs show hop-
    forward character, etc.
  • Refinement runs include real catalogue beers from your nearby venues.

### 1.10.4 — 2026-05-30

• New splash screen/app icon.                                                                                                                                                                                     
  • Discover: only Untappd-matched venues by default — every card                
    is one-tap addable. Two-step widen to all bars, then hotels                                                                                                                                                                              
    & restaurants.                                                                                                                                                                                                                           
  • Smarter Add: niche pubs Google doesn't index now get found via
    Untappd name + locality + proximity verification.                                                                                                                                                                                        
  • Share any venue: tappable link with rich preview card. Opens                 
    the app at that venue for users who have it installed.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   
  • Beer label scanner picks up beer style more reliably.
