What's New in YumScout
1.5.1
August 20, 2026
Your account, at the front door. • YumScout now opens on one sign-in screen — a single tap with Apple, or an emailed magic link. No password to invent. • Tell us whether you're here to eat or to sell and you land in the right place. Food trucks go straight into the application. • Signing up as a truck? There's a spot for a referral code right at the start, so a code from a friend applies long before you reach checkout. For trucks: your orders, on your Square. • Connect Square from your dashboard and every order you accept appears on your own Square account by itself. • Display-only and entirely optional — your payouts, prices and refunds keep working exactly as they do today. Plus another round of fixes from real kitchens.
