Before you buy the premium version, you are told you can leave feedback for the next update but theres no option to do so. Second the thc percents are off. The percentage is different on the dispensarys site…. Other than that its pretty convinient imo worth the price

Overall incredibly pleased with this app and at the value of the subscription. Would love to see the ability to set a minimum value filter for total terpenes/cannabinoids as a lot of smart dispo buying is finding the sweet spot between affordable and high potency.
Developer Response Thanks for the great feedback. The next version is a major update and does let you set min and max for any lab result data point. Should be out and available for download in the next few days.

A quick way to locate the strains we love regardless of your local budshop. Its new version is clunkier while it’s trying to provide more info. Needs some work. Trying to find a strain may require you to attempt entering the name 3x before accepting it in search.
Developer Response I'm glad you're enjoying BudWatcher and thank you for the feedback. The bug you mentioned has been fixed in the latest version. Just make sure to update your app and you should be good to go.

16.4.7 Oct 15

What's New in 16.4.3
• Favorites no longer sticks when you scroll, and tapping a tag actually does something now.
• Favorites got the feed's header, and your tags show their color.
• Nearby is a slider now, so you can pick 30, 35, 40 or 45 miles instead of jumping from 25 to 50.
• The "Server temporarily unavailable" banner no longer shows up out of nowhere.
• Talk to Ask: tap the waveform, say what you want, and it answers out loud.
• Ask can set any filter or sort in the app, down to a single terpene, and can send us a report if something looks off.
• The whole app follows your state: enter a zip anywhere or switch back to GPS and your stores, brands, map and filters move with you.
• Every zip you've used is a one-tap chip in Settings and in Nearby.
• A watchlist keeps the state you built it in.
• Store, brand and strain lists only show what's sold in your state.
• Maine has its own regions in the store picker, like Greater Portland and Midcoast.
• Item counts update the instant you change a filter.
• The Store, Brand and Strain pickers show how many match your filters, like 176 of 189.
• The price slider follows the size you picked, so 3.5g shows the 3.5g price spread.
• Product pages show strain and category coins and mark prices that come from a medical menu.
• The alerts inbox sorts by Price, Stock and New, with older alerts grouped by day.
• On a watchlist pinned to a zip, drive times start from that zip.
• Store license links open reliably, including a few New Jersey medical licenses that used to fail.
• Not in New Jersey or Maine yet? Turn on a launch alert and we'll tell you when your state goes live.
• New here? Tell Ask what you're shopping for and your first feed is built around it.
16.4.3 Sep 23
BudWatcher 16.4 is our biggest update yet. Here's what's new:
• Ask BudWatcher (Pro): say what you want in plain words and it finds the products, sets your feed, and can save watchlists, star brands, mute brands and set alerts for you.
• Watchlists: your feed and watchlists now live in one place. Save any filters as a watchlist, share it with a link that opens straight in the app, and set alerts per list for price drops, restocks, new drops and fresh batches.
• Popular sort: see what shoppers are looking at most. Best Value now shows exact per-unit prices.
• Keyword search: type in the Strains sheet and results update as you type.
• New categories: Pre-rolls split into Joints, Infused Joints and Blunts. Kief gets its own category.
• Mute brands from any product card, for a month or forever.
• Product pages: strain type, a medical badge, batch dates with a Reported badge when they come from the label, and a true 14-day price history.
• Redesigned Settings: pick your default feed, layout and location in one place.
• iPad: a real sidebar and full watchlist support.
Questions or ideas? Tap Support in the menu and we'll reply in the app.
16.4.0 Sep 4
