What's New in Spot the Cue
1.2.6
September 9, 2026
This one is about protecting what you've already earned — and making Restore Purchase actually answer you. • Fixed a bug that could reset your unlocked levels back to Level 1. If the app opened before the App Store had confirmed your purchase — offline, or right after reinstalling — finishing a session could save the free-tier limits over your real progress. The app now waits until it knows for certain, so your levels are never written down on a guess. • Restore Purchase now tells you what happened, every time: restored, nothing found on this Apple Account, or the App Store couldn't be reached. All three used to look identical, and identical to nothing happening at all. • You can restore during setup. Reinstalling used to walk you back through onboarding with no way to say you'd already bought the app. • A purchase that can't be verified now says so, instead of quietly doing nothing. • Your purchase is re-checked whenever you come back to the app, so one made on another device shows up without a relaunch. • The unlock screen is clearer that the iPhone app, the website and the Android app are separate purchases. Images and video are AI-generated and labelled as such.
