• Faster-loading photos: specimen images in item pages, feeds and the live auction feed now load as optimised versions, with full resolution kept for pinch-to-zoom. • Specimen videos now play automatically and loop. • More reliable sign-in: if your session has expired, the app now tells you and takes you straight to the sign-in screen, rather than getting stuck loading. • General stability improvements.

Quick Search, rebuilt • Ask for what you want in plain words — "fluorite and quartz from Peru", "Zeolites from India" — and Smart Search (Beta) does the rest. • "Narrow results" turns your results into tappable mineral and locality filters, no re-typing. • "Did you mean…" helps when a place name is ambiguous, plus related-search suggestions when nothing matches. • Price and currency filters on live listings are now free for everyone (archive stays premium). Browsing improvements • Available / Archived specimen toggles on mineral and locality pages. • Auctions, Localities and Sellers lists remember your place when you go back. • Seller videos now play on item pages. • Refreshed gem and mineral icons throughout, more compact Live Feed cards, and clearer AVAILABLE / ARCHIVE / ENDED badges. • New spin coach on the home wheel so the menu is easier to discover. Fixes and polish • Faster, more reliable startup. • Pull down to expand the header on search and browse screens. • Fewer rate-limit stalls when scrolling the live feed quickly. • Filter badges and "clear all" now behave the same across every list. • Security and dependency updates.
