What's New in Vurr

1.10

July 8, 2026

The "We Fixed The Scanner" Update The bag scanner actually scans now. We hunted the freeze bug through five layers of iOS and won. Point it at a bag, tap the checkmark, get your dial-in. Revolutionary concept, we know. It reads labels like a barista, not a robot. Blend names, multi-origin lists (Brazil / Colombia / Honduras — hello!), German labels, Rösterei names, even "Déjà Vu" with all its accents. And the more labels it sees, the smarter it gets. Your beans age. Vurr knows. Add a roast date and get a freshness countdown to the peak window — plus a notification the morning your beans hit their prime. Fresh bags, aging bags, opened bags, decaf: the grind suggestion adjusts for all of it. The dial feels like a dial now. Silky drag, a satisfying rubber-band at the ends, and hold the +/− buttons to speed-spin across the range. Your thumb will notice. Chirp calibration got its moment. Sound waves, haptics, the works. Listening to your burrs kiss has never looked this good. Hey Siri, what's my grind? Ask Siri for your dial-in, log a shot, or jump straight to suggestions — without opening the app. Shortcuts fans, go wild. Plus: friendlier in-app messages instead of system popups, roast dates in any format you type them (15.01, Jan 15, we get it), and a double-shot of stability fixes. Now go pull something delicious.

User reviews

Wanted to like it.

Doesn’t work particularly well and UI is not intuitive. Had a lot of difficulty finding where to add bags of coffee and additional shots because the UI is so clunky. The app seemed to forget I had already used it when I reopened it the following days. The benefits provided aren’t very useful. The app’s advice is very rudimentary and it takes longer to enter information about your previous shot than just dialing in a roast yourself without the help from AI. They shouldn’t be charging $22 a year for an incomplete app.
