If you’ve followed our journey, you know we set out to create a place where craft‑beer fans can share pours, swap notes, and keep track of their personal bottle collections. Over the past few months we’ve shipped dozens of updates—big and small—that push us closer to that vision. Here’s a peek at the highlights, told in plain English (no code required!).
The home feed is the heart of the app, so we focused first on making posting and reacting effortless—and fun:
Collectors begged for an easy way to remember what’s aging in the back of the fridge, so we built a dedicated Cellar tab:
A few early testers couldn’t reach the Sign‑Up button on smaller phones—yikes! We rebuilt that screen so it scrolls naturally on any device and trimmed the number of steps from four to two.
Many beer‑hunters browse in dim bars, so dark mode matters. Testers told us blue links on black were unreadable. We reworked the color palette for sharper contrast and tweaked banner highlights so everything stays legible, even with Night Shift or low brightness.
Nothing breaks the vibe faster than tapping “Bill commented on your post” and ending up somewhere random. We rewired our notification system so every tap now dives straight to the conversation that sparked it.
Early versions cached old chats and refused to show new ones unless you force‑quit—annoying! We added swipe‑to‑refresh, smarter caching, and the groundwork for push alerts so replies appear the moment they’re sent.
We’re polishing a tipping feature so you can buy a digital round for the beer experts who share killer finds. Expect smoother push notifications, curated “pub” feeds, and even more cellar tools soon.
Craft beer is best enjoyed with friends, and building this app is no different. Huge thanks to everyone who posted tasting notes, squashed bugs, or simply reminded us the contrast was off at 2 a.m. Your feedback keeps the taps flowing—cheers! 🍻
