What's New in Vinarai
1.5.4
August 8, 2026
This release adds home screen widgets, brings Vinarai to more countries, and makes label scanning noticeably better. WIDGETS ON YOUR HOME SCREEN Wine of the Day and My Cellar now live on your home screen. See today's pick and why it is worth pouring at a glance, tap straight through to the full story, and keep your bottle count in view without opening the app. NOW IN MORE COUNTRIES Vinarai is now available in Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, with the United Kingdom joining shortly. Age confirmation now reflects the legal drinking age where you actually live rather than assuming United States rules. SCANNING THAT READS THE LABEL PROPERLY Label reading is significantly more accurate and no longer stalls partway through a bottle. On iPhone 15 Pro and newer, labels are now read entirely on your device: faster, works offline, and the label never leaves your phone. Scanning on slow or international connections recovers cleanly, and if a connection is struggling Vinarai says so plainly instead of blaming your photo. HONEST RECOMMENDATIONS FROM DAY ONE Wine of the Day now tells you what a pick is based on. Before Vinarai has learned your palate it recommends from the preferences you set and says so, rather than claiming a personal match it has not earned yet. The more you rate, the more it becomes yours. MEMBERSHIPS AND HOUSEHOLDS Vinarai remains free with Glass. Decanter and Sommelier unlock a bigger cellar, more AI sommelier conversations, and deeper tasting insights, each with a 14 day free trial, monthly or yearly. One membership covers your whole household, and the Subscription screen shows exactly who is sharing what. CONNECT AT THE SHOP Scan a participating shop's code in store and share your taste profile to get picks, pours, and tasting invitations matched to how you actually drink. Consent is per shop, visible in Privacy, and reversible in one tap. ALSO IN THIS RELEASE Event passes in Apple Wallet now update themselves when a tasting changes. Household sharing is more reliable after reinstalling. Plus dozens of refinements across the cellar, feed, tastings, and notifications. As always, your wines, notes, and taste profile are yours. Memberships auto renew until canceled and can be managed anytime in your device settings.
