What's New in PureCheck
1.1.0
August 20, 2026
PureCheck 1.1 makes product scores clearer and more consistent. • The same product now keeps one score across search, home, history, and details. • A new score receipt shows every deduction and data-coverage adjustment. • Partial records can show clearly labeled preliminary scores without looking perfect. • Confirmed plastic water bottles now include a transparent precautionary packaging deduction. • Bottled-water pages show reported minerals in a cleaner layout. • Fresh-food search now excludes legacy commercial USDA records. • Improved alternatives, accessibility labels, history refreshes, and overall reliability. Scores remain informational guides based on available label and public-source data—not medical advice or laboratory test results.
