The scanner is much better at telling foods apart. • Kibble with freeze-dried pieces was scored as a raw diet. Fixed — it's now its own category. • Harmful ingredients carry their real weight. Anything toxic pins the score low. • Full ingredient list on every scan, colour-coded. Tap any one for the reasoning. • Salt line — anything below it is under 1% of the bag, so it no longer earns points. • New: Mineral forms — chelate beats sulfate beats oxide. If a bag scored too high before, rescan it.

PawGrade got a full visual refresh with a cleaner, more polished look — plus a new Light/Dark Mode that matches your phone's settings. We also rethought how kibble is scored: rather than penalizing a food just for being kibble, better formats (raw, freeze-dried, gently cooked) now earn bonus points instead, so the score focuses on what's actually in the bowl. New: a Heart-Health card flags foods matching the FDA's grain-free/legume pattern under investigation for canine DCM, and you can now ask about a specific ingredient without doing a full scan.

More reliable scanning, a redesigned results screen that shows your dog food's score and what to do next at a glance, tap-to-learn red-flag ingredients, and a cleaner collapsible layout. Plus performance improvements and bug fixes.

updated barcode scanner and made some slight visual improvements

Improved scoring accuracy — bad and terrible kibbles now score differently so you can tell them apart Added a compassionate message to all scan results to help guide next steps New supplement recommendations section with affiliate product links Ingredient penalties now scale by position — harmful ingredients listed early in the formula are penalized more heavily Scan logging added to track results over time Various scoring fixes and improvements

fixes bugs that crashes when opening app

Bug fixes and performance improvements — the app is now more stable and responsive

Ingredient detail popups now pull from our database instantly instead of waiting for AI — faster results Every product you scan automatically builds our ingredient database, making future scans smarter for everyone Barcode not found? The app now automatically switches to ingredient label scan so you never hit a dead end Improved barcode recognition — the scanner now tries harder to identify products from major US brands before giving up

updated screenshots Switching tabs now clears previous scan results (no more food data bleeding into treats) Omega ratio completely removed from treat results Separate grading scale for treats (Single Ingredient , Excellent, Good Treat, etc.) Processing method now detected and scored — freeze-dried gets bonus, kibble/extruded gets penalty Dental benefits section — detects parsley, peppermint, coconut oil, kelp, neem, etc. and shows what each does 9-10 ingredients = -10 penalty, 11+ = -20 penalty (stricter than before)

.3: Treats Scanner — new tab with treat-specific scoring (simpler = better, flags sugar as primary ingredient, synthetic vitamins, and artificial colors) Ingredient concerns now collapse — tap any flagged ingredient to read why it's flagged, keeps results page much shorter Scan Again button added to top of results — no more scrolling to go back Grocery Store Finds — whole foods you can grab at any grocery store, organized by benefit (dental, gut health, joints, skin & coat, and more) Improved reliability — automatic retry if AI is busy, no more error screens

Ingredient Guide — full reference for vitamins, minerals, proteins, and processing methods ranked best to worst Each ingredient now shows what nutrients it provides (taurine in heart, Vitamin A in liver, etc.) FDA recall alerts — warns you if a brand has an active recall AAFCO nutritional adequacy detection Fish oil recommendation when omega-3 is low Improved scoring accuracy

1. FDA recall alerts — warns you if a brand has an active recall on file 2. Probiotic detection — shows whether your dog's food contains live cultures 3. Treat scanner — see how popular dog treats score 4. Smarter omega ratio scoring 5. Ingredient descriptions updated with research-backed detail 6. Score improvements for more accurate results
